The con- sequence was that merchants '| became stocked up with goods that were almost unsaleable. Mr. Banfield has undoubtedly put his finger on a potent source of trouble, says the Hamilton Spectator. The policy which he deplores might be all right for the manufacturers, keenly com- peting among themselves for novelties, but it is unquestion- 'ably bad for merchants and for the consuming public. The era lof extravagance following the war has left its wake and made| conditions doubly difficult for stable trading, People have been educated into buying only the very latest fads in clothing.

Anniversary services will be held at the Head Church, Scugog, on Sunday, October 7th, On Tuesday evening, - October Beh 4 10%) Supper and enter "| entered this class. most courteously consented to open the Fair, While in Port Perry, the Lieutenant-Governor the guest of the Town Counell, a provided a most pleasing luncheon at the Sebert House, some twenty of the citizens of the town being present to take lunches with Mr. Cockshutt. = The luncheon did great credit to the man- agement of the Sebert House, and a note of appreciation was received by Reeve Figary from the Government House expressing. pleasure for the entertainment of the Council, special- ly mentioning the splendid luncheon. There was a strong note of optim- ism in the opening speech by Mr. Cockshutt, The thought was clearly expressed, that while at the present there was a. feeling of depression, there was no doubt about the early return of prosperity. At the conclusion of the address, the Lieutenant-Governor proclaimed a holiday for the public schools taking part in the parade, said holiday to take effect on Monday of this week. Needless to say the proclamation was re-ceived with delight by the children. The parade was good in quality, but not as large as it might have been, It is a bit surprising that more schools do not take part in the par- ade. For some years past the Fair Board has béen providing free tickets for all the school children of Port Perry, Reach, Seugog and Cartwright. So far the schools from Port Perry and Scugog have responded, and last year one or two from Reach helped out-in the Parade; but there is room for a better response in this import- ant part of the program. * Moreover, the Pedlar People and Moffatt Motor Sales Co., of Oshawa, have offered good prizes for com- petition. This year Scugog =Centre School again won the Moffatt Sales Company shield and the 2nd cash prize by the Port Perry Star, while the soft ball outfit donated by the Pedlar People was won by the girls of the fourth and third forms of Port Perry Public School. The dgnces by the Port Perry girls were very pretty, es- pecially those by the little folk, who won the first cash prize donated by the Port Perry. The general exhibits were good, but scarcely as numerous as last year. There was a fair ghowing of horses, -the--silver -cup donated by the -Can- adian Bank of Commerce for best Agricultural Pair in Harness, was won by R. Vernon & Son, Sheep ex- hbits were good, swine and poultry small; the contest for the butter prizes was keen; grain fair in number of -entries, but of good quality; fruit and vegetables good; domestic science good; flowers fair, but greatly helped out by Mr. Kent's unrivalled display, (nét in competition); ladies work display small. A very beautiful display of fancy work, (not in competition) was made by Mrs. J. G. Harris, of Toronto. A feature of interest was the load- drawing contest, which .would ove been even better had more Mr. Geo. Smith's team won first prize; and Mr. Alex- | Lee's team won second prize.
