Easier To Criticize
Than To Improve
In a vast enterprise like the Royal
Winter Fair, covering hundreds of
different activities, there are almost
bound to crop up incidents or hap-
penings which lend themselves to
criticism. People are prone to single
out such incidents for talk, and
daily newspapers — ever on the out -
took for something sensational —
tend to magnify them far beyond
their actual importance.
Wouldn't it be better, and more
constructive, if those who noticed
things at the Royal Winter Fair
which they thought could be im-
proved were to write the Directors,
frankly stating their views. On the
whole those responsible for this
great annual event have done a mag-.
nifitent ;o1 — one in Ith'ch all t-a't-
ada can take pride - and we feel
they would welcome such opinions
as a guide to even greater and het•et
'hints in the future,
