this exhibit can be made the best
ever" which it must be to satisfy the
Fall Festival committee. 1t is not on
| ly to satisfy them, that we are striv-
ing, but to place before the public
an exhibit which will educate as well
as please and entertain. The State
Board of Health will place the same
exhibit here that they had in Terre
Haute (Which it is claimed greatly
benefited that city, and was also
shown at the Indiana state fair. The
Textile Adulteration exhibit is of vast
Importance, being the first of the kind
ever shown in Richmond. Textile
authorizations are now claiming the
same attention that food adulterations
have for the past few years. and has
a place in the curriculum of colleges
and universities.
