Abstract
AMONGST the oldest of provincial societies, the Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, which has its headquarters at Falmouth, is one of those which has adapted itself to the changing times and continues to serve the interests of Cornwall in many ways. Instituted nearly a century ago for the sole purpose of holding exhibitions to encourage workmen and students and to give them the opportunity of showing their work, the annual exhibition and the summer meeting, held simultaneously, continue one of the Society?s main activities. The scope of the exhibition held in July 1930 at Penzance is especially referred to in the ninety-seventh Annual Report of the Society, which records that the exhibition was visited by more than 6000 persons.
