Forbes District Show Preparations and Improvements
The Forbes PA Association on Friday night set plans for the forthcoming annual show including £421 6s for improvements and a roof over pens. Pigs will be shown in the merino sheep pavilion, new loading facilities will be added, and subcommittees will handle details. A holiday for the show day was requested from Forbes Municipal Council. Sid Smith proposed an improved hunting-crene hurdles design, adopted with timber donated by Nell McPhillamy. The Parkes Association discussed autumn show changes with no strong support. The Ambulance Committee explored a combined horseracing and athletic carnival for funds, while the manager sought an exhibition of similar products to last year and a proposal from The Company for a display of products. The treasurer noted a start-of-month credit balance of £00 8 8, reduced by £188 10 72 in various expenditures, with securities held including war savings certificates, bonds.
