The grandstand was filled and a huge crowd sought shelter wherever‘ a temporary retreat from the chilling rain was provided. The steady light shower of rain put the race track in good condition and so lar was a help, but when the weather has received so much credit all that can be said has been said, otherwise it Was a great drawback and seriously impaired the perform- 8.1106.

GOOD HORSE RACING. ‘ But the horse-racing when all is said and done always is the big fea- ture of the fair and as stated above the horse races were the only fea- tures that the rain, outside the dis- comfort caused to the spectators did not impair. The track was in good condition and there‘were enough hor- ses entered to make in interesting. 1 The 2.35 class and the iree-ior-all iwere the two speeding events on the slate for the day. For hard-driven races and well matched horses they were contests hard to beat. As for Friday the winners were decided in three straight heats, but the horses had passed the wire in each contest before the winners were surely known. 2.35 RACE. In the 2.35 class there were three starters, Lew Jean, the Orillia. high- priced beauty, Lulu Chimes, the well-known Peterboro racer and Harry Mac, of Reeboro, a. green horse that is making a name for himself. 'In the first heat the race was be- tween Lulu Chimes and Lew Jean. Harry Mac got away to the bad with a break on the turn and could not pull up the distance for a. drive on the home stretch. Powell and J‘bnes, the drivers of Lew Jean and Lulu Chimes respectively, made hard drives of it and kept the heat in constant doubt, but Lew succeeded in getting her nose under the wire IIIS FACE AND NEGK WERE OOVEBED WITH "MES first. - . In the second heat Harry Mac be- gan to show his speed and got well to the front, but could not stay with Lew Jean long enough to make the wire in the lead. Lulu Chimes fell back to third place in this heat. In the third heat Harry Mac again got away to the good and many looked im- him to take the heat. He‘ got aWay from Lulu Chimes early iearly and was right up with Lew Jean all the way. This was easily ‘the best heat in the race. These two horses had- a hard race and were going right at one another all the way. Most of the time the horses were neck and neck with nothing to choose between them and the driv- ers working almost as hard as the horses. It was a thrilling race all the way down the home stretch and for a moment Harry Mac looked like a deliverer oi the goods. But he could not stand the pace and Lew Jean shot ahead of him under the wire. Lulu Chimes was a close . third. The tree-roan ' was 'the hardest fought race or the entire fair. There were flv‘e horses, entered and there Was little to choose between them. Collingweod Rocker 'drew the pole, while Planet wh‘o raced Friday in the 2.22 class got fifth position.

He featured the Oxford stoves, the various kinds of which are the Chancellor. Verona, and Imperial. The interesting and improved features of these stoves are. the reversible grate, the divided oven flue and the fuel economizer. Mr. Keys also exhibited the Economy hot air furnace manufactured by the‘ Pease Foundry Co. ' QUALITY SHOES. Felix Forbert had a section of the main building set aside for his boot ’and shoe display. The name Felix Forbert is synonomous with artistic decorating and this year he sur- passed any of his previous efforts. His goods were daintily arranged and the surroundings were such as to enhance the appearance 'of the well‘ assorted display of footwear. All kinds of leather goods were on exhi- bition, and it -was one of the most noticeable exhibits in the building. LINDSAY BUSINESS COLLEGE The Lindsay Federal Business Col- lege, under the able direction of Mr. A. H. Spotton, the new instructor,; had an interesting centre of attrac- tion at the fair in the main building. Mr. Spotton had on show the line of text books used in his classes featuring the Gregg system of short- hand. The Gregg system of stenc- graphy has of late years come into prominence by its numerous victories over Pitman. Its outstanding fea- tures are the fact that in the Gregg ‘ system no lines are required and there are no distinctions between light and heavy lines. Mr. Spotton got a great many interested in the new and up-to-date methods used in his school A‘ ‘ EXCELLENT EXHIBIT Mr. J was Bruce. who has been in the harness business for self about two years had ‘9' and well assorted display 0‘ goods in the main building. exhibit comprisq?!
