Dominions‘s best fruit cake Man ~A ow NkRA ... * % r’ ‘.:_1‘» hore _ s CAEOPICS : We knew we had good bakers in Durham, but now all Canada knows it. At the Dominion Bakers‘ Conâ€" vention held in Toronto last week. Mr Thos. Henderson was awarded first place among fifty competitors for six pound fruit cake. It was judâ€" ged by a Chicago professor of this special line ahd the cake had to come up to his qualifications and standâ€" ards as to flavor, texture, etc., etc.! Not only did Mr Henderson‘s cake do so, but the second best came a long way behind. When Mrâ€" Hesderson entered last year, he came second place in the race and this year the same ingredients were there but he left out the vanilla. Now we are not prepared to say the flavoring made all the difference but it appealed to the judge this year as a firstâ€"rater. So in future when Durham citizens want a fruit cake that has Dominion reputation, they know where to trayâ€" el.

DURHAM, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1928 With which is incorporated the Holotein Leader Thursday of last week was for this season, exceptionally a fine day, alâ€" lowing supporters of the Fair, opporâ€" tunity to bring out produce for the inside of the Hall and they did nobâ€" ly ; Friday, the second lay was bleak and forbidding and as a consequence attendance was affected as well as outside exhibits. However the officials made the best of it and carried out the program in spite of intermittent showers. The nrmber of cattle present made a poor showing, but some good qualiâ€" ty among them was satisfactory. Horâ€" ses were more in evidence and keen interest was taken in the judging by lovers of horse flesh. The judges were sometimes puzzled, if we mistake not just how to award the prizes, but there was no trouble in giving the red ticket to Stanley Williams, for ‘best team on the ground.‘ However we leave our readers to digest the prize list. Priceville Fair Marred by Wet Weather We cannot quit here without com mending the Hall exhibits. Fruit and vegetables were especially good and the ladies‘ culinary offerings were first class. Ladies‘ fancy work apâ€" peared to be up to the mark as was other domestic work. . It was generâ€" ally agreed that the Hall "was allâ€" right," OR sE Harriston â€" Kiltie Band enlivened the afternoon with fine music and supplied the program for the concert. The concert in the evening was fairly well patronized, the drawing card of Harriston kiltie band no doubt offsetting the weather discouragement. Had the weather been good, we are wll agreed, records would have been broken in attendance in field and hall. The Band were liberal and exâ€" cellent in their selections, in both time, attack and in nuances, precisâ€" jon in cutâ€"offs and was on a par with the best. Mr D. Savage, Listowel, was the comedian, without any tomâ€" foolery togs and ‘took‘ very well. Violin selection by Miss Bradley, of Harriston : Geo Haw, one of ourlocâ€" al boys on violin together with Mr. McDermid on banjo, contributed with encores to the entertainment. Mrs. Wallace gave two solos with encore: Messrs Haw and Hamilton of Harrisâ€" ton on violins were doubly encored. Violins appear to enthuse the genâ€" eral public at all times: some fancy step dancing was also given by Mrs. Hamilton (nee Maud Haw), late of Swinton _ Park. The Directors are satisfiedâ€"no use being anything else. Smth Bros outfit dispelled the gloom of the night. s NOTES $ Mrs Jno. McLean showed a fine public spirit by exhibiting !4 dozen large eggs tastily done up, though aâ€" ware there was no prize offered. Mr Sheffle also showed a hutch of young rabbits and a fine Angora rabbit, in addition to his prize winning chinâ€" chillas. Following is the prize list : The judges in ladies‘ work paid high tribute to the lady exhibitors for the very excellent work shown. The fineness of the stitches required at times the uses of a magnifying glass. And the quantity ! Really men, more room is needed for expansion. A driving trade was being done in the jack knife, cork screw, glass cutâ€" ter combination. The horseshoe pitching contest came to a sudden termination when it was learned that to be elegible for the $5 and $3 prize offered, they must first become members. Harvesting operations â€" first â€" day, lack of a bridge, sickness and other vnavoidable causes resulted in only 3 Directors being present. The lady dirâ€" ectorsâ€"dear bless themâ€"were in full force however and were public spiritâ€" ed workers. Lack of a bridge on the town line debarred the good showman, D Campâ€" pell from showing his fine stock. Flat to Rent: Above the former Post Office. Possession given Nov. Ist. Apply to Mrs W.
