PS i V1 HEN TT eM Foe va ' hE uN hdd A by Jean Jeffery Now doesn't this sound just like something you really want to attend? Imagine four hind quarters of good homegrown beef, barbecued to perfection with fresh crunchy cabbage salad and hot roast potatoes and over .one hundred fresh home- made pies and coffee. (I think I'll take along a tea ° pot) with all the trimmings. There should be enough for five or six hundred people. This will be at Epsom . Church grounds August 28. Following the parade there will be a sports day 1:30 to 5:30. We have a new idea in log sawing contest for the Saturday afternoon sports at the school grounds. Married or single couples competing - Tug of War, nail driving, hammer throwing, horse show pitching, age group racing, hula-hoop twisting, fun baseball and refresh- ments. " Don will still be listening for you to call to enter the parade. Jean and Shirley would sure like to hear about your antiques. Mrs. Hildreth Lyons has returned home from a visit Lots new this year at Blackstock Fair Joyce Kelly Plans are well underway for the 111th annual Black- stock Fair which will be held on Saturday, August 28. This year the fine parade will begin af 11 a.m. which is much earlier than other years so don't miss it. This parade will be led by the Cartwright Central Public School Band which will also perform during the day. The official opening will be con- ducted by Wm. Newman, Minister of Agriculture, assisted by Walter Beath, chairman of Durham Region. Mr. Beath will also judge the Prettiest Calf Con- test when little calves will be dressed up and shown by children. A new feature of the fair will be the tractor pull which will begin at noon. There will be various classes all pulling the weight transfer sled which is sanctioned by the Tractor Pullers' Assoc- iation. Unlike the recent pull at Port Perry where modi- fied tractors were used, the tractors here will all be standard farm tractors. Lots of good hearted com- petition is expected. The directors are thrilled that the fine ethnic German dancers from D.S. Waldheim Park and their ump-paa-paa band will perform. These enter- tainers have toured all Canada several times and are truly outstanding. Bill Deegan of C.F.R.B., Bill Newman, Allan Law- rence and Billy the Clown will participate in a cow milking contest. Billy the Clown will amuse the people all day with unusual tricks. The Mutt Show, Market Steer auction, Horseshoe pitching, Baby animal dis- play, Flip-your-Flapjack contest, craft demonstra- tions, balloon flying contest, as well as all the regular features of a country fair will add up to a full day at one of the best little fairs in Ontario.

All roads will lead to Blackstock on August 28th. with Mr. and Mrs. Walter Lyons and family at Lynn Lake Manitoba. On the return trip Hildreth stopped in Winnipeg to visit cousins and fell in love with that beautiful city. Mrs. Lyons had never flown before but on this vacation travelled on all three of Canada's main airlines and thoroughly en- joyed the experience. Recent visitors at the Christie home were Mrs. Jacquie Evans of Scarboro and her son Mark, Mrs. Brenda Payne and Mrs. Linda Horton and Mr. Grant Green. Dr. Jerrold Asling and family returned last Satur- day from a vacation to the East coast. A highlight of the trip was a visit to Upper Canada Village.
