The few remaining exhibits of the tsate fair that were not finished the first of the week were announced ready Tuesday and the big asri- cultural hall presents an appear ance of which the State can well be proud. The fair Is proving decf1ea success and more and more people are out every day.
 From end to end of the grounds fakfrs are getting off their amusing stunts and attracting attention. Lit- tie lunch counters are plastered all over the grounds and all kinds of soft drinks are to be had by the thirsty ones at every turn. There is an atmosphere of life and so about the fair that even the first show three years ago did not have. The people are getting accustomed to it and are seeing 1t Is up to them to add their share to. the general fun and a spirit of gayety pervades the afr.
 The races are still going on and as the bell rings calling the entries from the paddock, the big crowds swing over to the track.
 Last night. there being no horse show, The Curve" got in it's best work and was a scene of fun until late into the night.

The fun purweyora are expressing themselves as more than pleased with the patronage and from end to end of the grounds success Is marking the great educational and interesting en- tertainment. eK

 The fireworks in the evening were very beautiful. the displays being novel and very attractive.
 The people focked to the grand. stand to witness the display and ap- planded again and again the beautiful spectaeae.
 A vehicle check system Is being run at the carriage gate that is proving a great source Of comfort The teams are left there by the owners and are cared for by responsible persons un- til they are wanted. The innovation is proving a decided comfort, espe- cialiy to people coming in from the country, strangers, who have no one to leave their teams with. This sys- tenn will be run throughout the entire fair. sff
