THE PROVINCE’S SHOP-WINDOW
TiHS afternoon the eighth Winter Exhibition makes its bow “ to the Auckland public, and prospects are bright for a successful “season.” Former shows have demonstrated their -educative value. Such exhibitions illustrate both the wealth and the potential wealth of New Zealand’s finest province. ,We are assured on all sides that the last of a very long series of corners has been rounded and a belated, and perhaps rather timid, spirit of optimism appears to be peeping over the horizon. This augurs; well for the Winter Exhibition so far as public response is concerned. In this respect, too, it is interesting to note that the Railway Department is arranging for excursion rates from all parts of the province, so that farmers and their families may attend the show and, by their presence, assist the executive in realising its ambition to make these exhibitions representative of Auckland in the widest sense of that word. In this year’s show, for those with the seeing eye, will be ferand the story of our future development and an epic story of achievement. New Zealand is young, as countries go, and the lesson of the Winter Exhibition is significant.
