By HARRY HERN
Well, it is fall fair time again
and the directors of the Exeter
Agriculture Society invite you to
attend the 115th Exeter Fall
Fair.
As you probably know, the
big changes this year are the
dates on which the fair will be
held. After two lengthy meetings
last winter, it was decided to
change our fair to Friday and
Saturday, September 19 and 20.
In the last several years,
attendance has been dwindling
due to more industries in our
community and also it was
difficult for school children to
leave classes through the week.
We also found it difficult to
obtain a band and other
entertainment on a week day.
We, the directors, hope we
have made a move for the better.
Friday, we again will be
sponsoring a baby show and a
fair queen contest with added
entertaining numbers.
The official opening will be
on this night also, with Huron
Warden Jim Hayter to do the
honors.
On Saturday the parade will
start at Snell Bros. garage and
continue up Main St. to the fair
grounds. We are again planning
some entertainment in front of
the grandstand. Robert
McKinley, the Hon. C. S.
MacNaughton and local
dignitaries will speak.
I do hope local business
