Animals is Unlimited at
Mechanics Hall
AWARDS IN POULTRY
MADE YESTERDAY
Exhibitors From Worcester and
Vicinity Get Their Share of
Prizes in All Glasses

This reminds me of my younger
days" said a successful old business
man who started out in life as an as
sistant to his father on a Granite state
farm. as he entered Mechanics hall last
night. He was one of more than 1000
persons who visited the show of the
Worcester Fur and Feather club yes
terday. 1t was certainly a wonderful
exhibition and everybody was highly
pleased with the infinite variety of fur
and feather-covered animals in the
coops.
Each in its own way contributed to
the volume of noise. 1t is safe to say
that it is one of the most magnificent
shows of the kind ever seen in Wor-
cester, and those that are remaining
away are missing a capital treat. In
way, too, it is an education for young
and old, and the obliging attendants
are ever ready to explain all about it.
The incubator was the Mecca for
many. Out of the 2S5 eggs put into it,
230 young chicks have poked their heads
through and feebly saluted the world
on their first peep at it. Today A. H
Adams win have on exhibition the
smallest dog in the world, toy terrier.
one year old and full grown. 1t is but
six inches in length.
1t would take a page to describe the
thousand and one varieties of the fur
and feathered denizens of the barn
yard and forest, and they must be seen
to be appreciated. The show continues
until Saturday night
