FATE OF FAIR IN
HANDS OF COUNCIL
Latter to be Asked to Make Up De-
ficit of Over $1,000.
Goderich, Jan. 20—With a deficit
of over $1,000 on the books,, the
members and directors of the Gode-
rich Agricultural and Industrial Soc-
iety, at their annual meeting today,
discussed the advisability of continu-
ing the organization under such a con
dition fo ranother year. In view of
the fact that the society is a muni-
cipal one, it was decided to wait on
the Town Council and seek aid from
it in wiping out this debt. If the
Council comes to their assistance the
directors will consider carrying on
the organization.
Last year's fall fair was up to the
standard, but the small attendance is
given as the valise of the deficit.
Over $700 of this amount is ;prize
money which has not been paid.
The election of oflieers was nerd
over until the next m(etinn_•, when the
decision of the Town Council will be
received.
