one of the traditions we canadians have carried down for over one hundred years for the next month or so the local fall fair will occupy a prominent place in the minds of our citizens the gardener and farmers will be anxiously scanning their respective domains to see what flowers fruit grain stock vegetables etc are fit for exhibi tion while the fair housewife will be putting the fimshins touches to those fancy pieces of needlework and later may wear herself to a frazzle over the cookstove concocting those toothsome dainties which are a tantalizing torment not only to the hungry spectator but to the judge and night watchman who is usually appointed to guard the exhibits then again in addition to exhibits there is the big horse show which attracts the best in horseflesh from all over ontario the trotting races not much perhaps in comparison wih the big meets in the larger centres but still sufficient to give us quite a cre ditable thrill when a finish is close stanger s big midway will already be on- its way from the west to entertain and thrill the younger set these and other attractions gather together a large and representative crowd of all sorts of men and women out for a

line to talk over old days when the fair was some fair i can tell you and in spite of the t that the pessimists declare the day of the fair is over abundantly demonstrate that it is by no means so decadent as some would have us believe but instead is one of the larger at tractions of the timets still a rallying point for a renewal of old time friendships and an encouragement and help alike to
