The Sixth Annual Exhibition of the Brooklyn Aquarium Society, Inc. Brooklyn's sixth annual display of living aquarium fishes was offered to the public at the Brooklyn Museum of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences beginning Thursday, Septem- ber 20th, and closing Sunday evening, September 23rd. During this time many thousands of persons viewed the display, which was given by The Brooklyn Aquarium Society, Inc. As heretofore, the attractively laid out exhibit appealed to the artistic eye, while the floral decorations by the De- partment of Parks formed a pleasing background. Many thousands of dollars worth of goldfish were shown, the competition for honors being particularly keen. The mottled calicos, regal black moors, brilliantly hued golden fish, etc., all commanded attention and elicited ex- pressions of wonderment. Almost without exception the gold- fish were housed in capacious aquar- iums, some twenty or more of exactly the same dimensions being arranged in a single aisle. To say that the aquariums were arranged in an unusually artistic manner would be but putting it mildly. Virtually they were little reproduc- tions of nature's handiwork, trans- ported and arranged in miniature. All the various forms of water-vegeta- tion were shown in a thriving, healthy condition, while the hundreds of varie- ties of fish swam in and out, disport- ing themselves. The little tropical fish drew partic- ular interest. It seems impossible for the novice to believe that such little creatures can be adult specimens. Riots of color perfectly blended in the different specimens formed a picture
