Wed., June 28, 1893. Mamma and Mary staid at home again today to rest up. We went through the foreign exhibits in Agriculture Hall. Canada was the best exhibit in the pile. They have a fine display of birds, ducks and owls especially. They had a couple of men there to show people about. One of them said that although the thermometer goes lower there than here, one doesn't notice the cold so much because it is dry. He said he had seen children barefooted in the snow, and when they got out there was no snow sticking to them, because it was so dry. The Krupp Gem exhibit and the Convent didn't open
