THE COUNTRY FAIR.
A Big Crowd, a Big Time and a Big
Success All Round.
The United Patnotic Society of Cagle -
h township added to an already bnl-
tant record of achievements by the splen-
didly successful effort of Thursday last,
when 'I'M Country Fair" was held at
Mrs. Curwen's beautiful place on the
Huron road. A great crowd assembled
during the evening to take in the sights
and to spend their money. For the lat-
ter there was plenty of opportunity, with
various broths for the sale of ice cream,
home-made baking, fancywork, etc., a
fortune teller's tent, a fishpond and
various other devices.
Much amusement was caused by an
ancient victoria hitched to an almost
equally ancient grey nag and driven by
a footman attired who
d the of a by-
gone day. Those
orld! inp this old-time war ut also! not
con-
only helped
tributed much to the gayety of the occa-
sion. An auction sale of a great variety
of articles. including live stock, was con-
ducted by Mr. Thomas Gundry and
added considerably to the receipts of the
evening.
The grounds, after the sun had set,
were brilliantly illuminated by the
Delco -light, in charge of Mr. Robert Wil-
son.
There was a musical program, in which
the Blackstone -Buckley Orchestra. Mr.
F. and Miss Lulu Lobb of Holmesville,
Mr. C,. L. Parsons, Capt. Fox. Miss Tich-
bourne, Mrs. James Reynolds and others
took part. Earlier in the evening an
opening addres was given by Canon Ihll
in his own happy and ckver manner.
Everything paw off pleasantly and
succersfulfy, and when the receipts were
counted up they made the splendid total
of 5715. There will be some expenses to
be deducted. but the net proceeds will be
over $600-a very handsome addition to
the funds at the dianosal of the U. P. S. in
its patriotic work. ',
