2--Orono Weekly Tinier Wednesday.,September 10th. t97S an editorial A THE FAIR IS OVER BUT NOT FORGOTTEN The Durham Central Fair held in Orono this year was certainly that type of fair ... Over but not forgotten. It was a class "A" performance and a create to the society.lt proved entertaining as well as educational and did give producers and hobbyists the opportunity to compete. There were few week spots in the entire show. Further to the cattle and horse shows there were the poultry show and an ever expanding rabbit show which has become a classic at the Orono Fair over the past few years. A new department opened up this year in the goat show and here again it may be expected that it could possible develop to the stage of the rabbit show with exhibitors from far and wide and even the ZUnited States. Of course the OPP Golden Helmets started the ball rolling in fine fashion to set the tempo for the entire production. One new feature this year, which in the beginning may have seemed insignificant insignificant was the Tug-O-War. It created a great deal of interest and competitve spirit. Possibly the whole key to this interest was in the fact it was local residents who were out there on the track in competition. It surely should be carried on again and given a little more prominjmi in the schedule. MacDonald's MacDonald's Farm |ras an expanded feature which could create tremendous interest with some further effort. $g£h the flower show this year does contribute immensely to the fair. Friday afternoon is a slow part of the fair and does need something to give it some life. Since loosing the Quarter Horse and Appollosa shows a number of years ago Friday has been somewhat dead. The Quarter Horse and Appollosa show was a tremendous show and we feel it could have been the big feature of the Orono Fair as f ar as the spectators are concerned and it could have put Friday oh the map for the louai fair. We might also suggest that the band which this year played for a little over an hour starting at twelve and completing their program before the major portion of the crowd was in attendance be moved from infront of the grandstand to a location midway between the race track and the poultry show. Here, with some form of platform and a few benches the band could play for the entire afternoon providing music which is always a plus at any fair. Apparently it is felt that if the band plays infront of the grandstand they interfere with the showing of horses. It is impossible to have everything in front of the stand so why not move this elsewhere where it could be enjoyed. There is also a great of communicating communicating to the fair-goers just what is going on. So many have said they didn't know there was a goat show, or a black and white show on Thursday evening, or a MacDonald's Farm. The P.A. system could be used to great advantage in informing the spectators just what is going on. The OPP did an excellent job of providing information about the OPP operation during the performance of the Golden Helmets. This should be carried on throughout the fair with announcements of special events, new exhibits, top winners in the various classes. And to say the least it would not cost a farthing more in the cost of operating the fair. Lets let everyone know what is going on at the fair. Although me Orono fair was this year an excellent show it is like everything else it must progress to stay alive and to warrant it very existence. Well . . .bigger and better next year.

FURNACE FIRE AT LOCKHARTS SCHOOL The Orono Fire Department was called to Lockharts School Tuesday around noon. The electric heating unit which heats the gym had caught fire. According to firemen dust in the heating unit had caused the problem. The saddle horse show was noon an( j we would pick this a winner in this class, a big feature Saturday after- for positive action to control inflation KIRK ENTWISLE AND- ~-a Liberal government will lead the fight against inflation by controlling Ontario's government spending. We cannot afford continually increasing deficits and their inflationary consequences. ALL OF US - share the repsonsibility to join that fight. The Liberal Government will do its part. Only a NEW GOVERNMENTcan cut costs and government spending, enormous deficits every year, and ever increasing provincial debt to be paid back someday with interest - with Davis and D'Arcy McKeough and their Conservative Government. They will never change their extravagant stance. THEY MUST BE REPLACED." "The greater the size and cost of government, the less you get in goods and services from each dollar you earn. The economists call this inflation. In Ontario today, I call it stupidity by irresponsible men more concerned with vote grabbing to stay elected than in the kind of provincial fiscal scene our children will inherit." Kirk Entwisle is committed to less government at both the provincial and regional levels of Ontario. ENTWISLE DURHAM EAST LIBERAL ASSOCIATION Oshawa Bow ma nvi lie Newcastle 579-0721 623-4200 987-4510
