FAIR EXHIBITS SHOW IMPROVED
 CARE, STANDARD
Majority Display Workman ship, Backed by Fine
 Imagination

l Fair, designed in most cases with superb care and infinite good taste, reach a higher standard of excel lence this year than has been touched by fair exhibits for several previous years.
 The majority of stands show a good deal of workmanship backed up by fine imagination.
 As one enters the Northwest cor ner of the Fair building, he is greeted by the large combination dance floor stage e-bandstand. Turn ing to the right, he first passes the Green Top and Arrow Cabs exhibit, with four chairs for the use of spectators. This stand is marked by simplicity.
 Next exhibit on this runway is the Juneau Daries, Inc, featuring pro- ducts of the combined dairymen of this vicinity Tn the background are Is quarts of milk and on the sides are various sizes of cream products. At the rear of a small girl drinking milk, witS her mother standing over her, saying, Mother Says It's Healthtul."
 Home Motif
 A home motif played a large part of the Rice and Ahlers Company, which is next on the runway, with the entire arrangement centering on a Kelvinator refrigerator, two washing machines and a Coleman stove. These are attractively placed in a well-decorated stand
 Next exhibit is another using the home motif with a woman's kitchen as It's main attraction, this being the w. P. Johnson arrangement displaying a Frigidaire against a green and yellow background. An electrically-operated sign features a mother showing her daughter how the refrigerator furnishes ice cubes

 The American Legion stand and the Juneau Fire Department space, which complete the first runway, are combination exhibits and con- sessions.
 The Legionnaires are displaying the Thor Washer and the Thor Ironer which will be awarded as prizes. These are displayed against blue and gold background and with counter decorations.
 The Ford V-8, upon which a good many Juneau eyes are focused this week, is the center of the. Fire De- partment exhibit. The car is shown on a half-moon background.
 At the background is an ancient encore drop that has been used for the past several years.
 Forestry Service
 Swinging around on the other runway, the U s. Forest Service exhibit is well-conceived in na- tural log setting. Evergreen boughs decorate the foreground, while two logs run perpendicular on the sides. Entering the exhibit one sees maps of Southeast Alaska on each side wall.
 Two cartoons, illustrating the damage that can be done by forest fires, also mark each side wall Without centering on any one phase of it's work, the Forest Service has exhibits of forms of wood products developed by it's men, examples of Western hemlock and Sitka spruce seeds, the development of signs made and used by the Forestry Ser vice, and lighted pictures of the Tongass National Forest and the statement that this forest includes 16,547,673 acres.

 Chamber Exhibit
 The Juneau Chamber of Com merce exhibit is effectively fronted in different kinds of wood grown in Southeast Alaska, such as Alaska Western Red Cedar, Alaska Vest ern Hemlock, Alaska Yellow Cedar, Alaska Sitka Spruce. The back ground is yellow. But unfortunately, the Chamber workers apparently ran out of nails before the exhibit was completed for the walls are barren and one the floor lie several dozen pictures of Alaskan life. How ever, these pictures will be adorn- ing the wall today. Chamber offic- ials promise.
