The various buildings were not open to the public, but the tent ex: hibits were in order, and attract- ed much attention, the general concensus of opinion being that if greater effort and a more painstaking desire to present at- tractive exhibits to the public meant anything, this section of the fair was destined to mee: with great success, The mid- way, however, was the centre of attraction, and the various shows, rides, and other featur:s were all in ful} swing, and draw- ing a fair share of patronage from the public. The Main Building This morning, however, whea the fair opened its doors; and the buildings were thrown ope, everything was in readiness, and the crowd of visitors had an o}- portunity of viewing the succe:s which the directors had attaincd in their efforts to present a rec ord fair. The main building pre- sented a beautiful picture, with its exhibits of fruit, vegetables, flowers, plants and farm produce of various kinds, The collection: of vegetables, flowers, plants aud farm produce of various kinds. The collections of vegetables made a magnificent background on the west wall of the buildin.. In the centre were glorious co.: lections of flowers and plants, dahlias, asters, gladiolus and ce!- osias presenting a mass of color that was distinctly pleasing t= the eye, In one corner was a fine display by the Kingsway Nurserieg of Bowmanville, whiie around the building were aisti i. buted the exhibits of grain, iu sheaf and in bags, of potatocs and other roots, eggs, butter and honey, canned fruit and veget- ables, and everything else that figures in the operation of the farm and farm home. In the fruit section there was a wonderfu] display of apples of many varieties, showing the ex- cellence of this type of fruit as grown in Ontario and Durham Counties. Inside the 'case, and looking very tempting, were the exhibits of the home haking de- partment, including bread, cakes, pies, and other dainties which testified to the skill of the house- wives of the district. The ex hibits of the Women's Institulr section which were to be found iu this building, which had bhe>n tastefully decorated, and pre- sented a picture that surpassed anything previously seen at the Oshawa. Fair. Women's Section In the Women's Buildinz, the same painstaking efiort had been made to give a fine setting to the displays of needlecraft and other lines of endeavor in the form of women's work and fine arts. Beautiful quilts and other articles of home furnishing, dair- ty articles of clothing, and some excellent paintings and drawings, wera arrayed around the walls of the huilding, which promiscs to be one of the centres of attrac- tion for feminine visitors to the 'air.
