MONEY ORDERS FOR U.S. Postmaster Lindsay informs us that Post Office money orders for the Unit­ ed States are now being sold at the same price as orders payable in Can­ ada. For some time an additional charge had to be made on account of the U. S. discount on Canadian money. The Canadian dollar having regained its former standing on a parity with the American dollar the reason for an extra charge has disappeared. -----o-o-o----- GREAT ENTERTAINERS COMING The Bob Wiilson Entertainemnt Company, which will give a concert in the Town Hall on October 12, comes with a splenjdid deputation.

Thursday and Friday of last week were ideal days for a Fall Fair, and Lucknow was in luck in having its annual exhibition on those dates. Thursday evidently got people in the humor for coming out and Friday was so fine they couldn’t stay at home. The past few years, with bad weath­ er and bad going generally, were dis­ couraging to the directors, and the idea was gaining ground that there would have to be something more than “a strictly agricultural fair” if a crowd was to be attracted. This year’s Fair quite upset that notion. The good season and the fine days were all that were needed to bring the Fall Show back to its old-time dim­ ensions. The inside exhibits—Ladies’ Work, Cookery, Fruits, etc., were abundant and of high quality. The directors had much difficulty <in finding space in which to make a proper display. The splendid summer accounted for a great showing of fruits and garden produce. Curiously ^enough field roots and the inevitable pumpkin and squash were not numerous. Many favorable remarks were made on the exhibits of cattle. Heavy hors­ es. while good in quality, were not so numerous as in years g'one by when the Lucknow Fair was famed for these classes. R. J. Moore had a fine display of pianos and phonographs, and Mr. W. Naylor of the Ford Garage had a dis­ play of automobiles. The Boy Scouts’ Band was out in force under the direction of Mr. Mc­ Morran, and enlivened the afternoon with their selections. Tlfe-C&nJcrt The Concert on Fall Fair night al­ ways has a crowd, and this year was no exception. The talent was decided­ ly good. More town folk than usual were in, attracted by the announce­ ment that one of their own “boys”, Mr. Cameron Geddes was to be one of the artists. They were not disap­ pointed, for Mr. Geddes showed that he was deserving of all the fine things that have been said about him in Tor­ onto and London papers. He has dev­ eloped greatly in recent years and is easily in the front rank of Canadian singers. He was applauded and en- chored at every appearance, and, as usual, was quite liberal in responding. Miss Kathleen Wallis, who plays the violin with great skill, contribut­ ed many sweet selections and was very popular. Jack Patterson, the funny man 'of the troup, can hardly be called a suc­ cess as a Scotch humorist, but could have no complaint with the reception he received. Miss Olive Tichbourne, of Goderich, who was visiting in town, contributed a couple of solos which were well re­ ceived. Mrs. (Dr.) Newton made a very ef­ ficient accompanist throughout the program. The Princess Pats Orchestra, with Miss Dora Mitchell at the piano, gave the opening number, and played again during a short intermission. The con­ cert was followed by a dance at which the orchestra furnished music. The Family Theatre was also well patronized, the house being fairly jammed at two shows. This relieved the pressure on space at the Town Hall, where the order was all that could be asked for.
