He said that while they had experienced great difficulty in. differentiating between the' speakers, who had all done so remarkably well, yet they were un- animous in their decision. ' Refer- ring to the fact that the addresses 'must of necessity have been prepar- ed for the majority of the contestants but that they were ,lnemerized and stage manner and delivery had to be deciding factors, he particularly coin - mended the speaker from Clinton ur- ban school, Kenneth Dolman, who had prepared an original speech from his own personal experiences. First -place was given to Aileen Clark Fc 'dwich, whose subject was "The Value 'of Birds to Men." This decis- ion was popular with the audiences for this winsome miss was absolute ely captivating in stage manner, peau sonality and delivery. Her choice of subject was a popular one also and everyone was enthusiastic in ens plause. Second place went to Dona Old Harris, whet had .chosen the very commonplace subject of `Butter." There was nothing commonplace ,'- bout ,the address, •however•, for .in .a very elear voice -and with, distinct punctuation Donald told hie audience how butter was first discovered, hcw its manufacture and use became world-wide, its food. value in vita- mines, its excellence as a food for children, especially and for adults. He quoted the general prescription of an eminent doctor, who said, de not give children "bread and, butter,"'bet give them "butter and bread." This decision also was popular with the audience. Third place was given to Billie Fairish, who was quite con- vincing in his arguments that agri- culture can compete with industry. The speakers were then called to the stage again and their prizes awarded. George Spottee, M.P. for North' Huron, was also, asked to cone upon the stage. 'Chairman McLeod referred to the generosity of Mr.' Spotton in having donated 65, to the winner at each school fair and also a silver cup to the•winner in the finals e- ls x lain that hehad re- served He also e ed P. served calling on 11$r.
