The exhibits were fairly numerous in all classes, with splendid showings of horses, cattle, pigs and sheep. The display of apples was particularly fine, the coloring of the fruit being unusually good.« The different booths were well patronized. The Colborne W. I. served dinner and lunches to a good number. Considerable interest was manifested in the motorcycle races, the green horses races, stoneboat contests, etc. Also the old time fiddlers and step-dancing. In the horseshoe pitching, first prize was won by Gray and Gray of Roseneath, with Crow and Marsden of Alderville coming second, and Orra Harnden and Lonsberry of Colborne third. The broadcasting of the results of the horse judging and the races and special prize contests by the Flindall sound system was an appreciated feature. It also served to call for entries for the judging and the contests. The prize drawing for Public Sshool children attending Colborne Pair re-Tesulted in Jean TJsborne winning first prize. Patricia Harnden the second, and Ethel Bryant the third. In the team drawing contest at the Colborne Pair, enough weight was not available to stick the horses of Bruce Usher and Fred Denyes, so after several draws the prize money was split between them.

Mutton passed peacefully away on Wednesday, September 25th, 1935, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Gordon Dunnett, Dundonald, in the 76th year of his age. Mr. Mutton, or "iBert" as he was familiarly called by his neighbours, was the youngest child of a family of five sons of John Mutton and Jane Greenwood Mutton, who came to this country from Cornwall, England, with their family of two sons and two daughters and bought 100 acres of land at Dundonald, where -they settled and prospered, and where Albert was born, grew to manhood, married, and lived many years in contentment. In 1883 " he. was united in marriage to Miss Clara Honey, who was indeed a helpmate. She passed away over six years ago, leaving her home so desolate that our lonely neighbour closed the doors of the old homestead and sought comfort with his children, dividing his time with his only Cecil at Trenton, and his only daughter, Mrs. Gordon Dunnett (Elma) at Dundonald. Mr. Mutton was a faithful an indulgent father, a reliable friend, an obliging neighbour, a good citizen, a liberal supporter of the church and of every good cause, a regular attend-of Eden Church, and a member of the choir until failing health prevented. The funeral was largely attended, many coming from a distance and many more from his own and adjacent lighbourhoods. There were many floral tributes, among which beautiful wreath from Eden Church choir and another from his Dundon friends. His Pastor, Rev. A. Armstrong, who often visited him during illness, conducted the service, COMING EVENTS The Young People's Society of the Colborne United Church are planning to put on a play in the near future.
