Innovations for women
By PAT DOWN
Hustle! Bustle! What to
make? What to bake? What
to take?
It’s Exeter Fair time
again. We hope these
questions are going through
your mind. Each year we
look forward to the colourful
exhibits with their new
ideas.
We hope that new
exhibitors will be tempted to
test their skills at our fair.
We know every exhibit is
shown with pride and ad
mired by all.
This year we are pleased
that we will be taking part in
the Canada Packer’s
championship quilt contest.
At our fair, we will choose an
overall best quilt (double bed
size) which will be entered in
competition with other quilts
from our district at our
annual meeting in October.
The first and second
prize quilts from each
district will be entered in a
special class at the annual
meeting of Ontario’s
Agricultural Societies in
February.
Canada Packers will buy
the best quilt for $600. In
addition they will pay to the
Local society sponsoring the
quilt $100. to be used as
prizes in the next years quilt
classes. We hope to see lots
of quilts at our fair this year.
Another innovation this
year is the acceptance of
entries in the junior
homemaking classes, that
have seen limited wear. We
still expect new articles in
the senior ladies classes.
The exception for juniors
is because we realize that
teenagers who take pride in
the garments they make in
Home Economics or 4-H
clubs, would find it difficult
to put them away until
fairtime.
Be sure to watch for the
nail driving competition,
Friday night. This is our
sequel to the bread cutting
contest of last year.
Stop and visit at our
feature “Focus on Hobbies’’
This year Margaret Hern,
with macrame, F
Runnails - Lichty
pressing dried flowers
Bill Love with carving will
show you their hobbies.
I would like to take
opportunity
everyone for their help;
especially the division
heads. All our committee
members put in long hours
planning, setting up and
watching exhibits.
We need you as com
petitors to make our fair a
success. Who will be
crowned as our Sewing and
Baking Queens and prin
cesses? It could be you or
your neighbour.
Come and help us make
this year’s fair the best ever.
