SEAFORTH, F'RIDA„i ,: EPTEEVIBER 29, 1950 NEW ARENA ,FULLY UPIL Z e AT FALL FAIR • One of the factors responsible for the success of the Seaforth Fall Fair was the new arena. Available for the first time as fall fair accommodation, the arena provided ample space for the merchants' displays, eggs and dressed poultry exhibits, and school exhibits. Arnold Campbell, son of Mr. and Mrs. George R. Campbell, R.11. 1, Seaforth, proudly displays his pair of Yorkshire sows which won first prize in the Swine Club Competition at the Sea - forth Fall Fair last Friday. His hogs scored 365 points, of a possible 400. Smoke Blacks Out District During Sunday . Afternoon • Street Lights Turned On As Sun Hidden B y Dense Clouds. Seaforth district, in common with muoh of Southern Ontario, was blacked out Sunday afternoon by dense clouds of smoke. By two o'clock it had become so dark that Seaforth street lights were turn- ed on. They were not turned off until nearly 4:30 in the afternoon. Motorists drove with their head- lights on. Shortly after 12 o'clock it be- came apparent tba,t more than an ordinary sunless day was in the offing. Within an hour a vast pur- ple cloud covered the skies and it was sufficiently dark to necessl^ tate lights in residences. 'the strange occurrence was blamed on almost everything from atomic bombs to daylight saving. But scientists' explanation Wds no less strange: Forty forest fires in remote northern Alberta had sent up a huge pall of smoke that drifted in freakish Mende to throw. a mid-day blackout over areas 2,000 miles away. On Monday , th e piirple canopy moved slowly over New York State and plunged Tor- onto into prolonged gloom. • O • • • • •.

FARMERS' CLUB PROVIDES FAIR PROGRAMME (By Mac Bolton) Member:e of the local Junior Farmers' Club and 'Junior Institute provided a program the night be- fore bhe fair for the Chamber of Commerce in the Community Cen- tre. The program consisted of sing- ing, square dancing, tap dancing, instrumentals and selections by the orchestra. This is the drat public appearance the newly -form- ed club has made, and I think the people should now be convinced of the value of a junior farmers' club in a. community. i Members are reminded of the regular meeting on Oct. 3, when the guest speaker will be Jas. M. Scott, Who will snpeak on crop ro- tation • and cropping practices. itoll tail Will be the number of acres of cultivated land on each member's farm. "It is the best fair I 'have ever seen," said Robert Scarlett, "since I was first a director in 18.85." This.;,' opinion of the fair was reiterated at least once by every person who attended the Seaforth Fall Fair ' last Thursday and Friday. In his remarks during the open, int ceremonies, Russell T. Bolton, President of the Seaforth Agricul- tural Society, paid tribute to the work done by the Seaforth Cham- ber of Commerce in planning and . arranging the merchants' and manufacturers' displays. The fair was officially opened' at 3 p.m.,' on._L•riday by James N: r Corry, Atwood, M.P. for Perth, act- ing as the representative of Robt. McGubbin, M.P. for East Middle- sex, and Parliamentah'y Assistant to the Minister of Agriculture. ' Other personalities who wished the fair good luck were A. Y. Mc- Lean, M.P. for Huron -Perth, Thos Pryde, M.L.A. for Huron, and J. M. Govenlock, a past president of the fair. One of the leading features of the fair was the li><th annual reg- ional show of the Perth-Huroa, Shorthorn Club, of which Dr. M. W. Stapleton is president. The club brought out- a record entry: of 124 head of Scotch Shorthorns, R. C. Parker, Watford, judge of the show, said that, many of the .Short- horns would not have been out of place in any Shorthorn show 'in Canada, Something new in the Junior Farmer division was a traotor safety contest, devised by Gordon McGavin, Walton. The 17 farm boys who entered the contest were blindfolded while hazardswere ar- ranged on a set of farm machin- ery. achinery. When the blindfolds were removed, the lads were given the task of spotting the dangerous fea- tures. Later in the demons•tra "tions, two life-sized dummies et re used todemenetrate dangler* wor'king `c1 se to exposed 'aha £s, belts and gears of power -driven maohinerq. The Seaforth Highlanders Band and the Bannockburn Pipe Band of Varna led the parade of brightly - costumed school children from downtown to the fair grounds. Winners of the prizes for best en- tries in the parade were: Urban, St. James' Separate School, Sea - forth Public School; rural, S.S. 6. McKillop; S.S. 8, Hullett; SSS. 3, Hullett; S.S, 4, McKillop. ' Calf Club Sixteen boys brought out calves to show ilt the achievement day of the Seaforth Calf Club, held as part of the program of the Fair.

Mac Bolton had the best overall score on the day's: showing, get- ting a first place for his calf and being ranked second for showman- ship among the 16 club members who were in the ring.

She was bruised and slightly cut by the gravel on which she fell Her foot is not believed to be serious- ly injured. Much of the success of the Fair was due to the untiring efforts of the secretary.
