As a matter of fact the show at the grounds, that is the livestock, pountry, etc, by far exceeded that of last year. ! ; The exhibits on display in the curling rink were not as numerous as in previous years, there being a noticeable lack of roots and vege- tables and those shown were of a much smaller size than ever before. Grain exhibits, 'while less in quantity, were of a very fine quality and the homecooking and sewing entries wers up to the usual high standard with no drop in the number of entries. The entries of E. W. Byers, of the Industrial School at Kenora, a car- load in all, consisting of two teams, several head of cattle and sheep and poultry, attracted much attention, the fine livestock receiving much admir- ation, while the beautiful display of gladioli, hundreds of blooms grown and brought down by D. Frejd from Kenora, for exhibition purposes only. was a delight to behold. The mag- .nificent blooms in every known hue certainly added much to the floral display 'in the rink. The judges were as follows: and Horses--W. E. Heath, Kenora: Cattle 'and Sheep--W. B.! McMullen and Sid Prince, Port Arthur; Dairy and Domestic Science--Mrs. Pitt and Mrs." Melntyre; Sewing--Mrs. Dan Hutchison. There was a splendid attendance at the grounds show and the horseshoe contest, races, ete. proved attractive sidelines to the livestock 'show. The Society acknowledges with thanks the following donations for children's. race prizes: R. Sweeney $2.00; . Dr. Morison $2.00; M. Bailey '50c and Edye Bros. $2.00. The Dry- Men Jobbing Co. also donated $3.09 "as a special prize which was not previously achnowledged. A partial list of winners is as fol- J lows: -- Diploma, Best Mare and Gelding, E. W. Byers.

DRYDEN PUBLIC LIBRARY On account of our librarian being too lenient in the matter of collecting fines many of our patrons are be- coming careless as to when they re- turn their books. The Library Board has directed the librarian to, collect all fines after October 1st. It isnt necessary to ask the librarian how much you owe. Turn to the back of the book and find out when your book was due. YOUTH We hurried down to the shining beach Where the white-foamed breakers play, And hand-in- hand on the olen sand By the silvery sea we lay. "Now, you are wise," you said to me, As the water flashed and swirled, "So tell me--what do you find to be The loveliest thing in the world?" I shook my rapidly greying head And would not tell the truth; For how could I say, who am old and grey, That. the loveliest thing is Youth? ~--~NELSON SLADE. aiken 65 Soap 23s, 2 for Sales and Excise Taxes 2 EE - o { | Phone 69 ) ERD () GEER () GED ()- SEED) EE () RD () AN ) GRD (CUED) CE SD (CFE (SY ANANSI NAP ININ SIP NPIL SEPSIS IIS Woodbury's "Aids to Loveliness" MADE IN CANADA Coco Oil Shampoos (for 'Facial Pswder 25e, 50e, $1.00 normal sealp) ........ 50 Facial Cream in tubes 25 Brilliantine .............. 50 "Facial Cream in jars B60 Wave Set Lotion ......... 50 'Cold Cream in tubes ..... 26 Tissue Cream .in jars ..

The 3rd Annual Convention of the | North Western Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce, held at Fort Frances, on 'September 12th and 15th, was un- doubtedly the most successful yet held. Sixty-two delegatss registered, rep- resenting all parts of North Western Ontario from Hudson in the North to the International Eoundary and from Schrieber in the East to the Manitoba Boundary. The President, Dr. C. C. McCulloch, in his address, outlined the steps which had been taken to carry out resolutions passed at the last Con- vention. He stated that the Govern- ment officials had been interviewed personally in Toronto by respresenta- tives of the Association, and that all resolutions had been favourably re: ceived. He outlined the year's ac- tivities which showed 'that the Asso- ciation was growing in power each year, and was being recognized as the united voice of North Western Ontario. Resolutions presented to the Con- vention were many and varied. They dealt with all varieties of ..subjects. some of which were important and some not very important. In accord- ance with the precedent set in pre- vious years, no resolution is pre- sented by the Association to the proper authorities unless .it receives the unanimous support of the Con- vention. As a result of this, a num- ber of resolutions were withdrawn or amended by the Resolutions Com- jnittee, The Dryden District was fortunate interested in resolutions if resolution asking for the Lookout-Dinorwic Highway in order that the Sioux Lookout district might be able to draw their supplies from If this road is completed, it should open up a very satisfactory market for the farmers of this district and enable them to dispose profitably of their produce. strong support from the Dryden dele- surplus This resolution received gates and was the Association. Accellerated action was aaked on the construction of the Trans-Canada Highway from the Lake Head to The Association also passed approved by on the shipment of pulpwood from points outside of a 50 mile rail haul to points of manufacturd. This may also prove to be of advantage to this area. Other recommendations sub- mitted covered such varied items as the division of game licenses, -ap- plication for a reduction in freight rates covering shipments of hay from North Western Ontario to Western: Canada; completion of the Fort Frances-Kenora Highway; recom- mendation to the Canadian Radio Commission that steps be taken to radio reception in North The Association again vecian Led that a hospital be established in North Western Ontario for the care and treatment of mental patients. A resolution was also passed, asking 'the Government to adopt a forward | looking land settlement policy design- Led to populate more fully the areas of North Western Ontario. This resolution, after being approved, was referred to a special committee who will be expected to go fully into the question of land settlement and be] iprepared to submit a scheme for the consideration of the Government. The Association alsé recommended to the Ontario Department of Edu- catlon that steps be taken to sub- stantially reduce the time elapsed between the writing of Upper School Examinations and the announcements of the results of examinations. It was felt that the present delay in publishing results was not justified. Many of the resolutions provoked considerable discussion which was {taken part in with earnestness and good will.

The trip to Fort Frances via {| Nester's Falls was a delightful one | and much enjoyed by the Kenora and | Dryden delegates. The Association is doing wonderful work, possesses the confidence of the responsible Government officials and should receive the undivided support of every Board of Trade and Cham- bers of Commerce in North Western Ontario, The next meeting will be held in Port Arthur, and, we hope that some time after that, we will be able to hold the meeting in our own town.

In a game replete with thrills Sandies emerged victors in the last of the seventh over the Hawks to take for themselves indisputed cham- pionship = of the Dryden Softball League together with the handsome Berger trophy presented by Thos. Proudfoot. The third and final game proved to be the most. exciting of tha series with both teams playing air- tight ball. The breaks were neces- sary and the Sandies showed them- seélves better able to take advantage of them. Hawks broke into the scor- irig in the third with four runs, add- ing another in the fifth and again in the sixth.
