T, Batty, Manager Good Crowd at Fair Despite Rain Showers Flesherton Fall Fair did not exper- ience the best of weather this year a:<.d the bijr crowd expected to turn (.ut to see one of the bi :t fairs in years failed to attend. Rain fell most of the day and put a damper on the day somewhat, but did not mter- r'ere with the running off of the sche- duled special attractions. The at- tendance was real good for the kind of day and the srate receipts amount- ed to about §200. The hall was well- filled with roots and ve^atables, cut flowers fruit, domestic baking, butter and ladies' work. The latter was not such a big class aj last year, on account of the ladies' work in the prize list beinsr entirely chansred, but the quality of the exhibits was pf a decidedly higher standard. The flower display was real beautiful, some lovely cream colored dahlias beinpr shown by W. S. Inkster. .J. I. Graham had a the people .shuwed thi-ir appreciation by attending in large numbers. The directors of the Society have been working hard the past two months to put on an excellent day with special att; actions to p 1 the society out of debt. They succeeded in "iv insr the extra attractions, but jupitor pluvious opened ud and spoiled the day with rain. Next year we hope that the Flesherton fair day will be r'urnish.'d with extra fine weathei*. Anyway the directors are already plannin); to make the 11)27 show bif;- {ftr and better than ever. The winners of the various classes will be published next week. GREY PRESBYTERYâ€" UNITED CHURCH MET AT DURHAM C.P.R. TIME TABLE W. L.
