Fine Exhibits On
Display At All Fair

Saturday brought out fine display as
extensive as 1t was excellent, Products
of Island ranches, orchards and gar
dens, Us well as splendid exhibits OF
needlecraft, canning and bak In 9
demonstrated the fact that revival
OF the Island fairs Of past years was
merely matter of arousing a general
interest. The two All fairs have been
the result of the efforts of Just few,
while the old Island fairs were backed
by the horticultural Society, an or
ganization that served the Island In
broader capacity than any organ
ization before or since.
The exhibits consisted of an extern
sive variety Of vegetables, fruit poul-
try, eggs, rabbits Of several breeds,
quilts, individual farm exhibits with
as high as 80 different products in a
group, exhibits Of individual All mem
bers as well as the various club ex-
hibits.
The Angora rabbits on display from
the A. D. Malet pens formed par
ticularly interesting exhibit. One rab-
bit, with fur intact, showed the An
CORA IN It's natural state, while an
other animal that had been sheared q
few days before showed how closely
the fur can be clipped. Samples Of
the wool gave an adequate idea of Its
beauty and lightness.
The Angora family displayed by
Roland Thompson formed an attract
i've feature of the show.
The pair of Angoras given by Mr..
Malet was awarded to Bud Soike who
had on exhibition fine fur rabbit
The prizes for the show were all
donated by the business and pro-
fessional men of the Island. 1t was
significant that Carl Wick, upon
whose responsibility the show was
made possible, reported that in no
case was the donation of prize re-
fused, and that all contributors show
ed fine spirit in making the con-
tributions.
