The Dog Show while not as large as anticipated attracted s0me splen- did dogs and it is expected that an- other year this department of the Fair will attract many more exhibi- tors. The handsome silver trophy for the best dog in the show which attracted so much attention when on display in The Liberal office win- dow over the week-end was won by a Pomeranian shown by Mrs. J. W. Bruce, Steele’s Corners. The showing of horses was ex- ceptionally good and although the en- tries in some classes were not as numerous as» in former years the very fine quality of all the exhibits was everywhere the subject of fav- orable comment. As usual the saddle and hurdle events attracted the major interest of the spectators and these colorful events were keenly contest- ed and greatly enjoyed. That Richmond Hill Fair is grow- ing in popularity from year to year was evidenced by the fine attend- ance at the 87th spring exhibition held at the Agricultural Park on Vic- toria Day. Favored with ideal wea- ther the Fair was a very marked success and the thousands who at- tended were unanimous in their praise of the fine program presented this year.
