This is be- cause the Winter Fair on those dates also celebrates its tenth "birthday." This year the fair is designated a "commemorative show" to recall the inspiriting influence it was to Canad- ian agriculture when founded ten 'years ago. And it is to help in spread- ing a cheery outlook respecting agri- culture that the birthdayoparty is be- ing held. A birthday greeting, neatly en- grossed with the child's name, will be sent if parents or guardians will write to the Royal Winter Fair of- fices, Toronto, giving clearly the child's full name and address, with the exact date of birth and year. In addition eligible children who are able to attend, the Winter Fair will be given a complimentary ticket in their own name entitling them to free ad- mission to every department of the Fair.

ATf1A FORDWICH GIRL (t'ontinnecl from , page i.,) While the judges w'erc arriving at c a decision the chairman caned on prominent men 'who 'were -present, to speak. Thomas: McMillan, 11,1'., for nth Huron, very warmly congratu- lated the youthful orators on the ex- cellence of al Oh' work, Ile referred to the vahte of sports in character development and admonished the yeuth of today to avoid thoughtless - mss which is the besetting sin of the young. Mr, Robinson, M.L.A., North ITur- o.n, said for years he had made it a point to be present at the educational convention, to hear the speaking con- , test. "I have. always derived much pleasure front attending these events' declared the speaker, "Public speak- ers may often have duties to perform that may not give them pleasure, but attendance at these' gathernigs were not of that nature."

M , _Medd, M.L.A., for South Hur- on, tenlarked that it afforded him much pleasure to add, his congratula- tions to the preceding speakers. He was particularly eulogized in his ap- preciation of the address of Donald Harris of No. 9, Goderich.Township, who made so much of the subject of "Butter". Every dairyman, said.' he, would most enthusiastically endorse the subject matter of 'that address. This was productive of a hearty burst of applause and laughter. The judges not having returned with a decision, the chairman an- nounced that the spelling contest would take place. This contest also was between winners in the spelling matches at the school fairs. There were eight contestants and their po- .sition was determined in the same manner as in the speaking contest. Ernest Robinson, Blyth, drew number 1 and was first in line; then followed Kathleen Beacom, Goderich Town- ship; Francis Martin, Colborne; Ken- neth Finlayson, Ashfield; May Pat- terson, Grand Bend; Hilda Black, Belgrave; Willie Brown, Zurich; Ella Routley, Winchelsea. Inspector Bea- cum conducted the spelling contest and had selected some of the most difficult words in the school speller. It was remarkable, however, how eas- ily the young students mastered them, but finally the first casualty fell to the word quotation, the latter "o" in the word being substituted by the letter "e"; '"prominent" was respon- sible for the second retirement, "op- ponent" for the third and "independ- ent,", "candidate," "criticism" and "prevalent" in the order given. Willie Brown of Zurich was .the survivor of the contest, with Francis Martin sec- ond last .up and May Patterson third. Dr. Field was then asked to an- nounce the decision of the judges in the speaking contest. He said that while they had experienced great dif- ficulty in differentiating between the speakers, who had all done so re- markably well, yet they were unani- mous in their decision: ' Referring to the fact that the addresses must- of necessity be memorized, and stage manner and delivery be the deciding factors, he particularly commended the speaker from Clinton Urban School, Kenneth Dougan, who had prepared an original speech from. his own personal experiences. First place was given to Aline Clark, Fordwich, whose subject was "The Value of Birds to Men." This decision was ful- ly expected by 'all present, for this very winsome miss was absolutely captivating in stage manner, person- ality and delivery. .T.d:er choice of sub- ject was a popular one also and ev- eryone was enthusiastic in applause. Second place went to Donald Harris, who had chosen the very common- ]dace subject of "Butter." There was nothing commonplace about the ad- dress, however, for in a very clear voice and withdistinct punctuation, Donald told his audience how butter was first discovered, how its manu- facture and use became world wide, its food values in 'vitamins, its ex- cellence as a food for children, es- pecially and for adults. He quoted the general : prescription of an emi- nent doctor, who said, do not give children "bread and butter," but give them "hinter and bread." This decis- ion also was popular -with the audien- ce. Third place was given to Billie Farrish, who was quite convincing in his argurnents that agriculture can compete with industry. The speakers were then called to the stage again and their prizes were awarded. George Spotton, M.P., for North Huron, was also asked to come upon the stage. Chairman McLeod referredio the generosity of Mr, G. Spotton in having donated $5 to the winner at ;each school fair and also a silver cup to the winner in the fin- als. He also explained that he had reserved tailing on Mr; Spotton; to speak, until the present moment as he wished to have him present his beautiful gift in persona The donor of the cup, in address - leg the contestants and the audience p 11 A�pp 11 O Good range of colors and sizes, values selling regularly to $28.50.

Hegave the boys and girls some ,sound precepts to carry home with thein. In pre- senting the cusp to Aline, he very warmly congratulated her on her or- atory. He also had kind words of commendation for each contestant. Ivlr. McLeod presented book prizes to the three winners and a consolation book prize to each of the other con- testants. Book prizes, the selection of the secretary of the Educational Association, Mrs. R. Davidson, were presented to the contestants in the spelling contest. Mr. McLeod then handed the meet- ing over to the Educational Associa- tion. In. the absence of the president, Mr. McKellar, Mrs. Davidson was asked to preside. She expressed re- gret at the absence of -the president and vice-presidentes and after a few well chosen and well expressed re- marks called on the speakers of the day. Malcolm Mcl3eth of Milverton, president of, the provincial associat- ion, was first called. He expressed regret that he had not arrived in time to hear all the contestants in oratory., He referred to the tremendous pow- er of oratory, the greatest power known in the influencing of men and women. He instanced historical .ex- amples of orators who had influenced the destiny of nations. The most in- fluential speakers, he said, were those who .uses simple language. He said, that perhaps, John Bright had been the greatest orator of his time, and he was a very plain orator, On Chat- ters more nearly allied to the assoc- iation of which he had the honor to be president, he made reference to. the splendid work of Egerton Ryer- son, who in early days of the history of education in this Province had journeyed to Europe and had glean- ed from the educational institutions 1the methods that could be adopted in this "then" new country. As a re- sult of his efforts and of those who have followed him we have in On- tario one of the best educational sys- tems in the wbrld. Mr, Morris, the secretary of the Provincial Association, was next call ed upon. He was loud in his praise of their achievement on the public platform and predicted for each of them a brilliant future if they but continue to develop their talents. Continuing Mr. Morriss said in part that college degrees and diplomas were not the marks by which to know an educated person. "Activity of thought, receptivity of beauty, the power to, assimilate the lessons of na- ture are the greatest means in the matter of education. School and col- leges are a helve of course, but one might have the highest of university degrees an.d yet be lacking in the es- sentials of an educated man. The ed- ucated man is he with an open mind, ready to profit by the things he sees, hears and thinks," "Cultivate lovableness," he admon- ished. "What does it profit a pian or a woman to obtain all the degrees and diplomas to be had, if nobody wants to 'associate with or live with such a one, Every man and woman should take an interest in the affairs• of the days, in politics, national, pro- vitacial and municipal," These provincial officers were list- ened , to with much pleasure by the midi thee, The election of officers for the coming year then tookplace and •re- sulted as follows: President, Maleolen McKellar, Sea - forth; 1st vice, Rev, G. L. Gross, Au- burn; 2nd vice, Mrs. Cyril W, Scott, Belgrave; sec-treas., Mrs. Robert Davidson, Dungannon.. milIomillemeutl iil1tmectIAIisIIwlillrlllNll --- INIIIl�!
