REDRUTH SHOW.
A Fine Exhibition

The 30th annual show, under the auspices of the Redruth Exhibition Society, opened at the Recreation Ground, on Wednesday, in cloudy weather.

The Society, formed in 1898, with the exception of the war period, has had an uninterrupted run, and become a very serious rival to the Royal Cornwall Association's exhibition; in fact, with the exception of horses, cattle, and dairy the sections compare very favourably with those of the county show.
The secret of Redruth's success in the spirit that has prevailed among the members to make the event "go" in every sense of the word.
