not quite the social function IL was few years

bride attracted so much attention. But the
optimist may answer that the great
exhibition o, horse and humanity Is so
FAR greater than any other social event

only when the exhibition OF one year Is held up
against tina: OF another. Any other standard
o.comptr,son only brings into prominence the
fact tina; the exhibition stands alone Men Of
