Over five hundred years ago a young and loyely girl called Honorinde fell in love with and married the greatest sportsman of 'the day, the Comte de Poi- tiers.- They were very rich and very happy. particularly when the young wife found she was i hild. dwxe8n tndga y huntingtehr e i nfi energetic r st Itt e c dCs°111 a nt de came back with a huge wild hoar. fiej,thought it would please Honorinde to gee his capture, so he cut off its head and brought it in to show her, The sight of the bleeding boar's head on a dish was too much for the tern!- fied girl, and she fainted.

Filled with horror she gave the monks a huge sum of money and left, never to see the boar-girl again. The prior, realizing that Ben- edicte came from such a wealthy family, suggested to, his ambi- tious nephew that he marry her, The young man was understand- ably reluctant. But he finally agreed. This strange marriage was a dismal'failure. Benedicte bit her husband• each time he came near her.

With that I don't' agree. True, every fair ha's more or less the same classes for competition and exhibits. There are cattle, pigs, poultry and horses; baking. sewing and fancy-work; trotting races-`and the midway. But yet there is an individuality about each fair that makes it a little different from any other fair, And of course each fair draws its' main crowd from a different locality besides the regular attendants who make a practice of visiting each fair within easy driving distance Well, there was a show last Saturday that -Partner and I would like to have gone to but we just couldn't as we had vis- itors that afternoon.
