SCHOOL FAIRS
The School Fairs held in this dis-
trkct during the past week have Prov-
ed 'ccgnclusively that they are a decide
.ed benefit tothe welfare of this pruv-
ince. The prize lists at these fairs are
ery complete and the children ap-
parently are very keenly interested as
practically all classes were we11 filled.
The fact that all classes were well
filled is of great importance but it is
"secondary to the underlying principal
at these fairs. This principle is that
the children .get practical knowledge
in high grade farm products.
We hear over and over again that
if Canada is to enlarge her markets,
,all farm products must be of a high
:quality. The school fair instils in our
youn?er generation that very point,
a td who can judge the benefit 'that
.can be derived, Certainly the children
-who compete are getting their exper-
ience early in life and we firmly be-
lieve that they will make use of this
knowledge.
There is no denying the fact that
the basic industry in Canada is agri-
iculture, and, if we are to prosper and
.forge ahead we roust train our farm
youth so that they can carry on ef-
ficiently when the opportunity knocks
at their door.
The School Fair plays a large part
•s".rt the proper training of the youth
-toward efficiency and those who give
€vf their time and energy to conduct
these fairs r not only doing a great
t s a saeo y g
favor to tli children, but are builders
of greater Canada.

A FAIRER WAY
"The ,order issued by the Ontario
!Hydro Commission which prohibited
Hydro employees of all political ac-
tivity has been rescinded and in fut-
ure they will be extended the same
privilege as employees of the Canad-
ian National Railway.
The rule with the Canadian Nation-
al Railway is that if a mean in the
;service of the railways desired to be-
come a political candidate or partici-
rate as a candidate in a .political con-
-test, he may obtain leave of absence
<lurmg the contest, but does not sev-
er his connection with the railways.
If he were defeated, he comes back to

DEFINITIONS
One hears a great many people us-
ing old words with new meanings.
This results in confused thinking- and
misunderstanding, especially when one
is: talking 'about political matters.
The word "Liberal" is one which
I hear often loosely used as if it meant
the same thing as "Radical.- A Lib-
eral scheme of government is one in
which the rights of every minority
group, however small, are recognized
and protected. It is, I believe, the
ideal of every intelligent thinker on
political matters. And it is not nec-
essary to hare a democracy to have
a Liberal government; in a board 'ham, Billie McClenaglian, George I•Iig-
sense the British government is Lib- gins, Lloyd Mason; Barley O.A.C. 21,
eral, and so are other European mon- 1 qt., Bob. Henry; Sweet Corn, Gold-
archies. en Bantam, Billie McClenegltan, Mar-
13ut the governments of Germany,
Russia and Italy today are anytihng
but Liberal; and one seems to see
signs that the Government of the Un-
ited States is slipping away front its
old Liberal attitude.

Wingham Fall Fair, Wednesday,
October 10th. Keep this date in mind.
*
The recent • strikes in the States
have reached alarming proportions. It
is hoped that this feeling of unrest
will not become prevalent in Canada.
*
The recent strike in Guelph cost
over $1500 for special constables, etc.
The Council wonders who should pay
these costs. The people will eventual-
ly as they always do,
* * * =,e
The fact that 1935 is fast approach-
ing is evidenced by the fact that auto
markers for next year have been com-
pleted. We take it that the color
scheme, orange background with black
figures, is of no significance.
* * * *
The growth during this week hall
been wonderful. Here's hoping it con-
tinues for some time.
* * .k
It will soon be the time of year
that the weather prophets have their
inning. So far we have not noticed
many hitting the 500 class.
* *
During the following week the ex-
odus from the towns and villages of
the college students will be under
way. We wish these boys and girls
every success and hope ere they grad-
uate that prosperity throughout the
country will assure there of positions.
