'TWAS GREAT FAIR
UODERICM INDUSTRIAL EXHIBI-
TION MEETS WITH AN-
OTHER SPLENDID
SUCCESS
The great Ooderich industrial ex-
hibition was formally opened at eight
o'clock on Monday evening by Rev,
J. B. Fotberingham. In his address,
Mr. Fotberingham said "Ooderich
was conaideted by some to be 'back.
water' but 'backwater' was often •
very pleasant place. Some bad sug-
gested that it was not rt1ggfit to hold a
fair and engage in merriment et this
time of war ; but 1 believe we need
men and more mew of spirit and en-
terprise. There iscoe thin absolute-
ly necessary for England ultimate
'victory and that is that she be sup-
plied with bread, and in this fair we
eao show what we can do and what
we can give to the motherland. One
can hardly understand the warm fee!-
ing there is for the Canadians in Eng-
land. All hearts me open to you if
you area Canadian. 1t wakes one
proud of his country. The unity of
the empire is its glory. and the pur-
poee of this fair is to unite Semen.
There are come very unreel differences
between the agricultural the indus-
trial and the profeetionel clauses but
in this fair all join together. We
must remember the gleatnees of the
country lies in its agricultural wealth.
To do our dirty we mus, do the thing
which Iles next our hand, and .bat is
develop. the fears. We must get an
ideal of efficiency, few weeds and lots
of grain. W. should all join to make
this fair on. of the bright spots in
Huron county and Huron one of the
height spots or Canada.'.
Mondry was opening der and all
day long, and for several days pre-
vious, • continuous stream of convey-
' anew of every description: /row the
Targe auto truck to the old fa.hiooed
I buckboard had been ht'inging /cost.,
vegetables, fancy good.. Ioultrr and
live stock, all of which the director+
bad arranged in systema:ic i-nt.ation
around the hall and in the different
Meioses and pens •Ilott•d to the
earning cla.•es of live .tock.
On Monday evening the main at-
trwctien was the inspection of fruits.
vegetables and !sney work .lispl.yed
in the ball. The exhibit ot fruit
would be very hard to +nrnass but we
believe there is room for keener com-
petition as a great n her 04 the
prises went to enc man as will he seen
hy a glance a' the prize list.
The exhibit of Wrote was exception-
ally good. Pumpkin.. squash, man -
golds and sugar heats being worthy of
special mention ; corn also made a
splendid *bowing. some coke of the
yellow variety bring 141 inches in
length. while white cobs were to ice
*eel] in abundance a foot long. Po-
tatoes did not miniver to he quite up
tit the average. The display of flow-
ers, both plants and cut. wan the ad-
miration of every visitor. There wars
• great variety and an abundant enp-
ply, occupying the whole of the
centre table hf the .ontheru wing of
the main hall. On the second floor
ladle. and children's rook pad the
pre•-.ruinence. On the 'tables were
displayed some of for finest fancy j
work it has ever hsrn nor privilege to
inspect. There was knitting ..f every
description from the prosaic men's sox
and winter mitre to the I,dies fancy
fascinator and the baby's coat
Crocheting and art needle work also
held a high place in the exhibit
guilts, e (oilers 2nd bed spreads
were a ruaavrl of Nolen: and untiring
energy on the pert of the housekeep-
ers.
In the baking depottwent it wire an
act of refined cruelty to display such ,
a tempting array n( eatables and' thee,
to bar one front even a taste.
The exhibit of cold lunches made
one appetite keen for the opportue-
ity to prove by experience which was;
Ibe hest. Calms. pie., cookie,. tons
and breed seemed to do their beet to
make one feel as if they had not est -
en for a week. In the pre.ervsol fruit
department, while the. quality. was`
good, there was considerable roori for I
improvement in rtttamity: soc0. of I
the housekeepers around town will
have more preserves in their cellar
than were nn exhibition. A similar
statement might he made about the
cheese and butter exhibit. especially
cheel,e.
The display of paintings and crayon
-work drew rnnriderahle attention and
terry favorable comment. Our private
opinion b that the execution of roost
ofthe .fIaihits was welt up -to the
&vevag. bit there is room foe S wider

subjects. One monoebrwme was

THOROUGH BRITISH SUBJECT
To roc EDITOR of THE 514.541.:
Sir, -The tact that 1 am of German
descent seems 10 have aroused in the
minds of snmr unduly excitable per-
sons unfounded suspicions as to my
loyalty. and tbeae suspicious have de-
velof"d int, rumors which I find are
bring widely circulated Most of
these rumors are so ahsurd that no-
body rnnld be expected to believe
then1 hut. other. are of *such a dam-
aging char*ct•r that 1 feel it is only
,Inst to myself and my friends that I
should publish this statement. it ie a
painful 'thing 0, have one's loyalty
celled it. queation and to t*• compelled
to publicly defend it. teat 1 atu forced,
ander the eircum.tences, to do so.
1 ate A British euhjeso and 1 intend
to continue to 1.. a British subject for
the rest of my life. My parentage is
German hut it is probablyenough to
say that my father sougt refuge in
this British colony, as a refugee from
the dated military service imposed by
the Pru.aian goverment. Surely 1
bave little reason to do anything but
love and praise the flag that has given
protection to my people, and to my -
slit and my children, the means of ad-
vancement in life such a. we could
scarcely have enjoyed under any
other flag.
Area German I should be unnatural
if 1 did not admire the German people
to all German -Canadians do, hut i am
a Canadian above all and coy Reg is
the British flag and no other.
The rumors circulated about toe
which its anyway impeach my loyalty
are false.

CLOSING ATTRILL'S POINT
To THE F:,rTon or Toto Stole Al.!
Sir, -Would you allow me a space in
you-- valuable raper for a few rearm ks
.n regiad'd to Attrill's point. In the
first place it would be a lamentable
proceeding if anything happens to
deprive the people of the township of
Colborne and the town of Ooderich
from enjoying the lake hreeses,,r from
picnic ur among parties using it lie.
they have in day* gone by. 1t might
he well • be enumerate a few reason
why the council should throw this
proposition out.
1. Thi. road May be very valuable
some day ars means of ecce.. W the

ing elevators use indust rise ou tis. le -
land, or un the, beach where the Bir-
mingham plant now is le,c..ted.
2. 1t is the only way the people of
Colt/mColt/mowear.. to., good access to the
l '.ch fns sand or driftwood. The
gravel alone there might be worth
hundrede of dollars to the township
for makit.g roads or building put -
pores.
3. Once lcadwaya are given up it is
a costly And dihHcolt metres to get
polse+won again. if the value of these
are appreciated later on.
4. 1t make* an ideal Bathing piece

Hanelink'e has no roe.' to the beach
