OOULDERY, Manager y WATGH us GROW ; BLACKSTOCK Between four and five hundred in- terested spectators attended the School Fair on Wednesday afternoon of last week. Teachers and pupils deserve great credit for the interest shown and fine work done, Five out of the nine schools in the township took part in thé parade, namely, Cad- mus, Blackstock, Archer's, Mahood's and 'Cedardale; the four not taking part were Caesarea, Purple Hill, Devitt's and Egypt. The Egypt pupils shared in the exhibits but were too few in number to take part in the parade. Col. Snyder, the Inspector, spoke very strongly 'on the matter, saying that any school section finan- cially able to take part in the schooi fair and not doing so should be thoroughly ashamed. The singing bv the pupils improves a great deal from year to year, due no doubt, largely t» the instruction they receive each week from Miss Ward, their singing teach- er. The prize list will appear in a iater issue. Another game of girls' softball was | played on Friday evening when the Blackstock girls played a return game at Hampton and Jost by a score of 8 to 6.

Sometime later they moved to the West where they again took up farm- ing at Swan River.
