One race, for instance, will be to harness and hitch the horse in the buggy and drive as you round the field. This should sive lots of fun, and anybody who thinks he has got a pony that can travel is in- vited to get into this and show them what he can do. please Visitors to the Dryden Fair this ; year will find many new and enter- taining ideas on the programme. The directors started in from the first to make this the greatest Fair ever held, and they have been working all season to carry out their plan. The date is Thursday and Friday 22nd and 23rd September. FAIRS BRING SETTLERS This year, as in the past, it is the intention of the Colonization Depart- ment to put on an exhibit of Northern Ontario grown grains, vegetables and honey at the Canadian National Ex- "hibition at Toronto, and the Central Canada Fair at Ottawa. These exhi- bits are for the purpose of advertising the possibilities which we have for the promotion of Agriculture in this nor- thern district. It is through this branch that new settlers are brought in; and as there are thousands of people visiting these Fairs, the ex- hibits sent from the various districts show in a general way the kind of farming that is carried on, and in this manner the settler may best decide which district is most suitable to the kind of farming that he intends to en- gage in. i - Owing to unfavorable weather con- i ditions, first class material to send to i | 2 | these Fairs is rather difficult to locate Anyone with produce suitable for sending should communicate with the local agricultural representative. The Department are willing to pay a reasonable price for such material, and in each case the grawer's name and full information is written on a card and attached to the exhibit. In this way not only the district, but also the grower, is given credit. fever, summer colds, asthma positive- ly stopped by RAZ-MAH.

SCHOOL FAIR PLOT JUDGING School Fair plots are now being judged by Mr M F. Cook, who reports that for the most part they are highly satisfactory. The children are showing a keen interest in the work, and it is expec- ted that entries at he School Fairs will be well filled, and the quality of exhibits will be high despite the un- favourable season which we have had. OUR PICNIC. Dear editor--Some of us think you might like to know about our Sunday "School pienie, but if you never Weie a kid yourself, we feel sorry for you. Well, we started off at eleven ocl. Tuesday, in the biggest hayrack and wagon you ever saw. All the little kids got in the middle and we older ones packed around the outside so as not to lose any of 'em. It rained, but that didn't matter. Rain never spoils a picnic, does 'it? They said we were going to Mr Stan- ley Bartlett's place, and after a jolly ride we got Shove wonny out among the trees. Say, Mr editor, if we fellows had ! arranged this ourselves it couldn't 'a been better: swings, races, tug-o'-war wheel-barrow races, threading the needle and hundreds of other games kept us busy all the time. But the eats--Oh, Boy! I don't know how they ever got there, but those ladies just kept bringing out sandwiches, cakes and tea till we nearly bust. Some of us tried to keep count, but after it got to 20 helpings of cake and tea we got all mixed up. Gee whiz! I wish I knew who made all hose cakes with salad dressing on --or whatever they call it! I'd go and chop wood for 'em every day for a year. good for children; but I don't think she really means it, 'cause whenever ed the sandwiches down our blouse, g and the girls put their's in' their stocking or some place, and - every- body wanted cake! What beats me, though, is how they kept the kettle boiling. Gosh, I'm glad I wasn't Mr Bartlett. He must have stayed up all Monday night to bust wood, and I just think what Mrs Bartlett will have to do clearing up after a bunch like that. I'll bet she has to put in some overtime. You know, that's what makes us kids feel kinda mean: all that work just to give us a good time. You maybe think this is a lot to say - about a pienic, but if I could only tell you what us kids feel about it, you wouldn't have any room left for other | things not half so important. the Sheriff's Office; Kenora."
