FAIHTIME HIGHLIGHTS By Your Ful -O -Pep Reporter Your Full -O -Pep reporter trav- elled approximately 2,800 miles during the past week, covering the Fairs at Brussels, Burford, Zur- ich, Beeton, Caledonia, and Mar - mora, * * * The attendance at all the Fairs was well up over previous years and as usual, the livestock champ- ions were, as a general rule, raised on Quaker Ful -O -Pep Feeds. The only complaint received by your reporter in all the many utiles trav- elled last week was that Ful -O -Pep feeds are not in sufficient supply. It is still a little difficult at times to secure alI the Ful -O -Pep re- quired. The reason for this is that quality has not been sacrificed for quantity, and as a result, Ful -O -Pep feeds are still the best that money can buy. * * * At Brussels a concert and dance at the Town Hall climaxed an un- usually successful Fair, at which the cattle entries were extremely heavy—more than 200 entries in all, The Becton Fair featured a bi- cycle race for children which drew a great crowd. This was a new event this year and added colour to the exhibition. The Fair Grounds at Becton were in fine condition. It is a toss-up as to whether the freck- le contest or the baby show pleased the proud parents the most. .At Zurich, the School Fair was run in conjunction with the Agri- cultural Fair, and here Mr. W. S. O'Neill, well-known cattle loan and Ful -O -Pep feeder, won prominence with his entry. The attendance at Burford was well above normal, and all entries were substantially up over preced- ing years, Jumping and saddle classes drew much favourable com- ment. A 875.00 prize was awarded HERE'S HEALTH to the wise housewife who in- sists on Maxwell House Coffee. It's Radiant Roasted to capture every atom of goodness in the Superb Maxwell House blend. ,aa. .... Photograph by your Fn1.O-Pep Photographer Zurich—.Mr, W. S.

Caledonia Fair celebrated it s Diamond Jubilee with record crowds—well over 15,000 being in attendance during the three days. This is the only Fair in Haldimand County. Caledonia's newly -formed 40 -piece concert band was in atten- dance and helped create a gay and carefree atmosphere which prevail- ed throughout the Fair. The Junior Department at Cale- donia was under the direction of Mr. A. G. Skinner and was well supported with some 70 Juniors taking part. At Marmora, the attendance was somewhat less than that of Cale- donia, but the holiday spirit was every bit as noticeable and invig- orating. Fortunately here, too, the weatherman was kind and a thor- oughly successful Fair was held. At Marmora, the sten who raise the Champions were once again the men who feed Quaker Ful -O -Pep feeds. The Unflattering Kind Bridget, who seemed to be bright and willing, was applying for the position of maid. "Have you any references?" asked her prospective employer. "Yes, ma'am," Bridget r'plied, "I've lots of then." "Then why didn't you bring some of them with you?" she was asked. "Well, to tell yon the truth," ex- plained Bridget, "they're like my pho- tographs—none of ihcm do me justice!" sOM-M-M!
