fierce war whoops echoed through
the town, anxious citizens rushed
to their portals to find scores of
red/tainted figures prancing by
somme brandishing mean -looking
tainahawks - and others with bow
and arrow. '
But fears were allayed when it
was realizedthat this was just
pant of the big parade which open-
ed the third annual Goderich Trade
Fair.
The Injuns, who turned out to
be the neighbors' kids in disguise,
whooped it up right from Judith
Gooderham Memorial 'Park through
the Square to Agricultural Park.
There the town was saved 'when
the big white chief, Mayor J. E.
Huekins, negotiated a truce. '
1p a symbolic ceremony, the
mayor, attired in feathered head-
dress and 'blanket, buried the
hatchet which was handed him by
the witch doctors. Then both sides
announced a policy of peaceful

ade were the Goderieh Siwe Water

two fire trucks, a police cruiser
and a covered wagon.
At Agricultural Park, the first
night crowd was welcarined by Earl
Rawson, chairman of the :fair eon-
mattee.' He introduced Mayor
Huckins, who declared -.'he show
officially open.
Fall Fair Again?
The mayor foresaw -the eventual
return of "our once well known
fall fair" as a natural outcome of
the trade ,fair. In fact, he was
prepared to go even farther than
that. He said he felt ithate ode-
rich would be able to interest other
municipalities in staging a Huron
County Fair in connection with the
local .trade 'fair.
"It • has great possibilities," he
said, "if we get out and suppport
these young 'businessmen who have
the interests of the town at heart."
He pointed curt that ppeneeeds ofthe fair bel., keep Goderich child-
ren off the eteeets. The Ki amen
Club, he said, had a $10,600 in-
vestment In a playground end has
now started to construct a wading
pool.
Bert Such, president of Kinsmen
Club, thanked all those •who had
helped in preparing the 1956 1 -
tion of the fair.
About 1,500 people viewed the
exhibits in the arena and outside
on opening night.
Several weeks of preparation had
gone into the parade in which 150
young braves, squaws, cowboys and
cowgirls marched. It was planned
as a special event of Judith Good-
erham Memorial Park under the
leadership of Ted Williams, recre-
ation director, and his assistants,
Shirley Leitch, Auleen Fisher, Ruth
Westbrook, Pauline Hill and Art
Peachey.
After the parade, the youngsters
enjoyed hot dogs served by the
Kinette Club and milk donated by
the local dairies.

week. Ih subduing the outbreak,
members of GoderichThird Troop
took off their trouser and tied
the legs to make containers for
carrying water from Keeney lake
to the fire.
After fighting the atubbrrrn blaze
in the thick undergrowth for two
hours, the Goderich scouts notified
rangers of the Ontario Department
of Lands and Forests. By the time
the rangers arrived, the youths
had the flames under control. Of-
ficials said that the scouts' quick
action had prevented serious
trouble from developing in. the
'huge, densely wooded park.
Twenty -fops scouts of the troop,
under thesupervision of Scout-
master Glen_ Lodge, had gone to
camp at Kerney Lake on Saturday,
August 4, and they returned to

As well as 'tieing the legs pf

Later, the first patrol was joined
in its battle against the blaze by
another patrol from the Goderieh
troop.
In other, quieter moments dur-
ing the camping trip in 'Algonquin
Park, the boys spent considerable
time observing beavers building
their dams. And they found that
deer were very plentiful, too.
