good to each meeting. "Have I:
something to offer, help Craft
people in the area become a
part of Fair, as they have a
great deal to offer". She said
don't let money be the only ob-
jective of your Fair Board, but
rather use local talent and leave
the professiOnal shows for TV.
No one needs hire talent for the
local Fairs, plenty of it abounds
in, each and every area. Keep
your money for prornotiOn of
talent shows and Craft exhibits. ,
She praised Ripley for their
initiative in having a social.
•evening and inviting surrounding
Societies. Also she stressed the
importance of receiving reports
from the women's section before
November 1st and to this Mr.
Harris 'added that the complete •
report be ih.his hands also by that,
time. •
John D. Thomson, past District
Director introduced the guest
speaker, Frank Wall, Vice Presid-
ent of the Ontario Federationof
Agriculture and a fruit farmer
.from Kent County.
• Mr. Wall explained that Gordor
who was to have been pres-
ent, was in Ottawa attending to
the Farmer's needs and couldn't
be at District 10 meeting.
Mr. Wall was a very fluent
vfeaker and explained the various
changes in farming in all areas.
and thus changes in the Fairs
program. Not many years ago
people frowned on the use of
• tractors he said , and how many
accepted the use of chemicals
with favour, or the transplant of
ovum and the growing of corn and
beans so far north. These all
have come to pass and so he felt
Fairs needed to,make changes and
•that they would thrive for another
hundred years or more. First of
all one must be a contributor, /
and one must know exactly how
many young and old alike were
enjoying the Fairs, where we
could ;remedy the problem if one
•exists. He too stressed the im-
portance of using local talent -
no professional show i - these are
for TV or thosewho sit at home.
He said the big factor in a good
Fair was the togetherness ,irnag-
inative thinging and a contribu-
tion to the community with
everyone having a part.
A need is felt for Craft and
Art Shows, or they wouldn't be
. so popular. "Get behindthese
projects and give the people what,
they want". Mr. Wall grows
cherries and handles 25 tons a
