If the number of exhibitors is any criterion, the Wellington Industrial 'Exhibition will be a great success. The demand for space is so great that the plans have had to be reconstructed. An area has been taken from the Concert Hall, and the general committee, together with the exhibition executive, will meet for the purpose of adopting, if approved, the amended plans. The re-arrangement of the floor makes room for 2200 extra feet of space, and this has all been applied for. Several applications are in hand <for wall space in the gallery, a limited area in both places being available. No definite policy has been laid down in regard to entertainments during the period of the exhibition, but this matter is now under consideration. There are several applications in from persons desirous of conducting cinematograph shows, while an owner of trick dogs is willing to put on an entertainment. With the reduction of the entertainment hall area 1280 persons can be seated, where formerly there was room for 1500.
