ton Far Beyond Any OF the
Members Expectations.
SEVENTY EIGHT EXHIBITORS
Nearly Seven Hundred Splendid
Fowls Occupy the Coops in
Showroom.

IN 10 greet tho Growing ROSTERS and
cackling hens. but because OF Some NM
foroseen difficulties Manager Stansbury
and his able and busy corps of assist
ants found II utterly impossible 20 get
everything in good exhibition shape until
late I'm tho afternoon.
In the first place the management made
a mistake. though "a natural enough one
ln selecting So small 4 room for the
show. They We're not To- blame for this
because thcy had to- bee guided nv the
Information I'm hand at Tile time when IL
became absolutely necessary to decide
ON the question OF a building FOR the
show.
TAe Information then before them in
olDat"d that tho building No. $50 East
Broad was large enough TO accommo-
date the show. and. therefore. that build
ing was engaged. Later entries made the
exhibition a much bigger thing than was
anticipated. and now when 10 IL too late
20 get better quarters il IS found that
NO. 0H IS not nearly large enough. How
ever. tile management has done a good
work Ia making the room meet the emer-
gency. and what is lacking iu space Is
made mp I'm general attractiveness The
coops are a little cramped. but they are
we'll arranged and AN tho beautiful fowls
are shown. % good advantage.
