the best including the 4 -year-old Wet Senior Champion, Elmcroft Dew Drop M and Reserve Champion, Macbarr Countess
Lochinvar. Mr. H. L. Fair of Uxbridge is very active with this Black and White Holstein Club and much of the success of
the show may he attributed to his efforts.
Betty Galbraith and her pet,
Bozo, who won first prize at
Blyth, were damp but happy.
Little Miss Galbraith posed
patiently while ..your roving
photographer mopped a sodden
camera, but Bozo wasn't any
too happy about having his pic-
ture ,taken. He seemed to feel
that any cat that won first prize
was entitled to go- home and
stretch out by the fire. He
glared at your photographer
with the haughty disdain of a
true champion.

colourful program in front of the grandstand. The youngsters put on a show that lasted for
some forty-five minutes. The juniors made a great hit with a group of songs including

Rain at Blyth didn't dampen
the spirit of that well known
radio announcer, Torry Gregg.
The officials of the Blyth Fair
used a technique which might
well be followed by many of
the ather fairs. They secured
the services of Mr. Gregg of
C.K.N.X., and as a result all
announcements were handled
in a very professional manner.
In spite of heavy rain, Mr.
Gregg succeeded in injecting a
note of gayety into every event.

The Blyth Fair was the victim °again this year of a perverse weather man. Even the usually placid cattle 'suuvu,cd in
-registering expressions of disgust when it became evident that an all day ram had set in. The thoughtful expression on the
faces of the cows above might very well be attributed to the fact that this is the third year in a row that bad weather spoiled
to a large degree an otherwise very fine show.

One of the Highlights of the Tavistock Fair was the jumping, The jumping events were a great
crowd-pleaser. Above is Rockette, winner of the Green Hunter Class, ridden by Margaret Sears
of London, Ontario. The Green Hunter Class proved more than popular with both entrants and
spectators. There were eleven entrants in this class alone.
