East Grey Fall Fair East Grey Fall Fair hus come mid gone again aud ciui l>o classed us a success iu ma.uy ways, alt]n>ugh a laige attendance wiis prevented by rain ou butli iliiys. In the hall all departments were well tilled, with notable i.ni)roveiiients iu roots and vegetables, butter and grain, over last year, and the ladies showed a mtkgiiiticent lot of beautiful work. The competition in drawing among the school children was keen and some excellent work shown. Fruit w.is of extra choice ijuality and in g;i-eat variety. Flowers and plants were plentiful, although some of the largest exhibitors in these lines of past yeara were not present. The outside exhibit of hoi-ses, cattle and sheep was fully up to former years, while ijigs wore not numerous The poultry department was the only KOCtion tliat showed a decided falling oil" from last year, although soma very line birds were shown. It is a pity, t<)o, that more interest is not taken in this line as poultry isbecoujing one of the most val- U!iblo assets of the farm and more atten- tion is being i)aid to it evary year. The directors have for years provided an ex- pert judge in Mr. Harry Wright of Owen Sound, who turned thefeathers over again this year, aud whoso ju<lgeniment is geldom, if ever, (luestioned. In the team of roadsters class the judge was compelled to hand out to M. Bolger of Dundalk a raw deal, as a result of the conditions impo.sed, whicli were, "pair of roadsters in harness, geldings or mares, judged for value, action and appearance, and usefulness for roadster purposes." The judge advised the directors to drop the last clause. As Mr. Bolger's team were j.>acers they had not the same use- fulness f(a' roadster purposes that the trotters had, though they were much the better team. T here wtt.s not a great deal "doing" in the line ot sporl.s,''*uuy(TI''lWiVif i", j."..,. foot i-ttce was rather exciting. There were seven starters in this event. Ted Vickers of Durham won the nice without any trouble. Vickers is a good sport and "..<onie runner," and th.mgh his favorite wee is live or ten miles, yet he won the third of a mile and 100 y»rd races. The only siiecâ€" ^ attraction was a mov- ing picture -**>"'' *•»'«'> *"'» »" very well in its W' ''"'' ^^^ *'''"" *'"^® "^ " '"^'''y .Clonal class â€" the usual run of train fobbei-y, etc., also a tiliu showing a faked up scene where Thaw shoots White on a i-oof garden in New York, certainly not a desirable thing for children to gaze upon. There was also on the grounds the inev- itable cigar-doll man with his rank cigars The gate receipts were low, only some $136, but the Airectoi-s are thankful for even that when the weather is taken into consideration, and hope to pull out even when everything is sunmied up. Compared with some of the shows in larger towiis, by men who have attended them, ours of this year shows up ahead, and everyone wa-s united in pronouncing it a gocKl all-round show, and better than the average. The concert at night drew a Hrge crowd wh3 thoroughly enjoyed the program. Harvey and Kenny, as we predicted, proved a gi-eat success as a drawing card, and the local nmnbers were also highly appreciated. This latter consisted of a piano solo by Mi.ss Mabel Boyd, a piano duet by little Misses Gladys Cornfield and Maude Boyd, selections by the liand, and a pretty little dance by Master ^ > Hi REV. L. F. KIPP, B. A. â- Rev L. F. Kipp of the Baj li.^-t Churcli will preach liis firewell sermon on Sabbath nt xt previ, us to removal to his liew held of labor at SUyner and Creemore. Mr. Kipp is a comiMiratively young man of good parts as ,i iiiinLster and has concluded a most successful pastorate on this charge. He is the eldest son «>f Mr. and Mrs. .S. -V. Kipp of nuar Wood- stock and was born and brought "P on the f..rm at Goble-s, Ont He joined the Baptist cbiiich there in 189.i as a result of revival services ui-der tlie piistor, Hev. R. M. Cunningliaiii. He ei' ered Woodstock college Septeml)er of IS'Ji and gradu- ated in 1897, afterwards attending IMuMa.ster I mversity from 1898 to 1901. graduating witli tuj degree of B.^ A., after which he did work a.s a student pa.sior at Belle Ewart, bt. Thomas and Giavenliuist. Ho was oid:niied at the latter ulace in V.MX aud since tliat time h;is held ijastorates at Strathavot., liK):M90() ; ami Fkshorlon from September, 1906 to the present tiu'o. Mr. Kipp has been Clerk of the C wen Sound A.ssociation for the past five years. Duriii" the pastorate here tliero have been .'W baptisms, besides addi>i.. us by letter and experience, and at the pres- ent time llie membership is the largest m the history ..f the church here, and the congregations have been largely ui- creiused at Fle.shertou, Pricevillo "iid Ceyhm. i nder Mr. Kipp's i«i»torate a new shed was built at Uoclvvale, and barn and shed in Flesherton reconstructed, besides considerable improvement to Flesherton church and parsonage. Laurie and Miss Lulu Pedlar, accompan- ied on tlie violin by their father. Mr. Sam. Pedlai-. These little tots (twins.by the way) gave a very attractive number. For genuine, side-splitting fun, .sense and nonsense, humor and pathos all in one "sitthig" Harvey and Iveiiiiy are '"it." Mr. Kenney's inqieisonatiou of Dickens characters in Nic^holas Nickolby was certJiinly what might l)e avUed a redeem- ing feature, aud balanced up the ijrogram to perfection. His portrayal of the vil- lan<jus S(iueers was tlirilling, as also was Nickolby's denunciation of the cruel ni:vster. As a reader M r. Keiiney Ukes high place with a Flesherton audience, while for hmocent humor Mr. Harvey has no peer. The proceeds of the concert amounted to 1^107 The oWcial returns of the d;iy are as follows: gate, $i:«).70; concert, «107.95; booths, »24; entry fees, 53.60, which toUils $272.05. Witli this, the govern- ment grant and the membershii) fees, the dii-ectors think they will meet expendi- tures. THE PRIZE LIST HORSES. Heavy Draught. Pair geldings or maresâ€" J. I. .Graham.
