than that OF last October.
a meeting of the board of directors
was held at fair headquarters last
night, with Messrs. J. r. Anderson,
Leigh r. Page, Sam Cohen and l.. Q.
Miller present.
The fair this year Will exceed that
of last year MANIFOLD" said Mr.. An
derson. we are already arranging
for some of the biggest attractions
in not only the country hut the whole
world. We have learned from ex-
perience that the people of Rich
mond and Virginia are not satisfied
with anything but the best. We have
given that to them as far as our
ability has been able TO cope with the
situation. But this year We are going
to go forward as far as we can. and
the result will. In my opinion, more
than please the people of the State"
Our farm exhibit buildings will
he greatly enlarged" said Mr., Page.
Instead OF space for fifty counties
we will have srace for the whole
hundred counties. and some for our
friends in Maryland and North Caro-
lima. The stock space will be greatly
enlarged. and there will be some of
the finest stock in the universe on
exhibition. The big farms all over
will contribute 10 the exhibition"
,,tuu
larger Industrial exhibits said Mr..
Miller. we have been handicapped
IN this respect to so~e extent hereto
fore by lack OF cooperation. but we
feel satisfied. at least I do. from in
formation already received, that this
year We will have the largest and most
complete industrial exhibition ever
seen in Virginia. Many local manu-
facturers have Indicated their inten-
lion of going TO the fair with large
exhibits, and many OF the merchants
are also going to show the visitors
what the city of Richmond can do in
the way OF handling mail orders and
local shopping"
The races this year will introduce
10 Richmond some of the leading
speeders in the country" remarked
Mr.. Cohtn. We have already re-
eeived a large number of entries for
the early closing events. But as the
list will not close until the 18TH, the
list cannot be published until that
date. Our fair went on record LAST
fall as the best In the horse line of
any over the circuit. This year we
will startle the other fairs and racing
circuits"
