' 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.

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."

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.

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 Goderich on Wednesday of last • week.

As well as 'tieing the legs pf their troueelee to serve as contain- ers, for earning wafer to douse -the flames, the boys used sticks to dig up the ground and prevent the flames from advaneing. • 4 Later, the first patrol was joined in its battle against the blaze by another patrol from the Goderieh troop.
