HoeTr there is I no assurance whatsoever that nil ,UUI,bUU,UOU, highest initnat no organized minority is foster the betterment of things agricultural and hnr. ticultural as well indeed as the domestic, educational and cultural arts not mentioning the industries and trades. And there is no better way of bringing about such a fostering than by healthy competition as to excellence of attainment in quality of product such as a fair or exhibition brings about. And as has been pointed out the opening of the Skeena River Highway to connect Prince Rupert more directly and intimately to the interior hinterland with all its resources of agriculture and other natural products is an especially good reason wliy we should bo taking action to revive the exhibition in the principal city, port and business centre. It will be another very effective means of developing better relations, understanding and mutual appreciation between city and district. The annual exhibition may Euue to buup uirm. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, let I me thank all those who have already so generously donated and let me urge those who have not already done so to get be- mnd our committee and put ;tne camoaiKn over the ton with 1 a han(r OVTr hnfnw tint cr V'if lnnrr nnut it.A Unn !t ,,, , "w.
