to that of the trald the esqaesng township fair was held last s ednesiar at acton the attendance was verj- good tuouh not as large as migki have been had if been beid in some mote central pot it proved as great a success however a coda reasonahlv be expected of one held at an extreme corner of the township a perusal of the abotc paragraph would cause any person who vie ted the fair at actoc to conclude that the edito of the xact knew nothing whatever about the esqueaing show of 133 the insinuation that the attendance was not so large as if the fair had been heid in georgetown certainly without foundation as the gate money shows that the attenoance was more than a 1000 higher than that of ant pre y0us exhibition of the societr the num ber of exhibits too was larger than on any previous ear the fact of the matter is acton s exhib tion was the most success f ul one m every parte alar that has ever been held in the township and both ita entries and visitors were m point of nam bers within 25 per cent of those of the county show the xar should occasionally endeavor to secure facts for its readers respecting this matter of the show being held m the extreme comer of the township a word or two may be admissable it seems to be the rule rather than the ex ception tohold the township fairs in one corner of the fowcslp for example the trafalgar towruhip fair is always held at oakvule which town is situated in the extreme comer of the township enn township fair is annually held at enn village and it is situated in the extreme corner of the township bowhccod alwaj s haseiamosatownehip fair and eockwood is in the extreme corner of the township and all these townships hare successful fairs at thia season of the ear when the farmers work is pretty generallv conclud ed they thine nothing of a drive qt five or ten miles to tneir township fair and this fact was very cleariv demonstrated in esquesing this year as numbers of repre aentatives were present from everv section of the township this argument against acton as a site for the township show on account of its position has been very satis factorfly exploded this year and we hope to hear no more on that subject could not expect to oome up to 1u older opponent a great mistake on the part of tho eociet was the appointment of four judges tustoad of three or fin and a natural ooasequenoe they oould not

judge of mualo were apparent vex determined from the first to give the red ticket to streeievflle regard lea of their inemownt playing and would hear of no other award while messrs harrison and eutarbrook genuemen pot sesaing a life long experience in imparting instructions in music maintained that actons playing waa far superior to the others and certainly detervm flrrt prize the roaolt was that neither of the judge would forego hia decision and the firat and second prize money waa evenly divided between acton and streetaviue while korral which really earned second place had to be contented with the third pnxe in justice to the bands competing we hope the society will see their mifiuke this year and choose fortoext show three jadgea and all of them competent of giving a correct
