Ottawa SEAFORTH, Friday, October .1,1954 • IT WAS A GOOD I'IR .‘ Now that the Seallol th Fall Fair is over there will be tew doubts re- maining as to the 1,', i:(101/1 of extend- ing the Fall Fair tt include a third tiay. While the attendance on Fri- day was down slightly, the gate on Saturday was such as to result in'a total attendance considerably above that of last year. The added day this year was, of course, in the nature of an experi- ment. As was expected, problems were encountered and difficulties be- came apparent that would not exist another year. After all, the decision to extend the Fair was taken less than two months before the Fair op- ened, and as a result it was impos- sible to adjust all the arrangements that already had been made. Another year directors, no doubt, will achieve more balance between the Friday and Saturday programs by perhaps holding over until Satur- day more of the purely agricultural features, such as the 4-H Club ev- ents. Exhibits in the round house would also remain and be on exhibi- tion Saturday. An early decision re- garding fair dates would permit greater co-ordination and would re- sult in the exhibitors and the public knowing just what the 110th anni- versary program would include. The Fair this year was undoubted- ly among the best in the long history of the Society. Not onlly was every event keenly contested, but the num- ber and quality of entries, particu- larlyin cattle and swine classes; were -as good or better than that seen at fairs much larger than Seaforth. The mercantile and industrial ex- hibits in the Arena, while somewhat fewer than in previous years, were a major attraction, as wasalso the evening programs presented, iifthe main, by local talent. With the experience gained this year and a continuance of the whole- hearted support and co-operation of the community, the 110th annivers- ary fair in 1955 will be an event in keeping with the long and proud his- tory of the society. SHOOTING CAN BE SAFE This -is the season of the year when many citizens begin to think of the hunting that lies ahead, and of the pleasant hours to be enjoyed with gun and dog. Perhaps in view of this, it wouldn't be amiss to recall "Ten Command- ments of Safety" which the Sporting Arms and Munitions Manufacturers' Institute has published in the inter- est of keeping shooting a safe sport. They are: I. Treat every gun with the re- spect due a loaded gun. This is the cardinal rule of gun safety. 2. Guns carried into camp or Some must always be unloaded and taken 'down or have actions open; guns always should be encased until reaching shooting area. 3. Always be sure that the barrel and action are clear of obstructions. 4. Always carry your gun so that you can control the direction of the muzzle, even if you stumble. Keep the safety on until you are ready to shoot. 5. Be sure of your target before you pull the trigger. 6. Never point a gun at anything you do not want to shoot. 7. Unattended guns should be un- loaded; guns and ammunition should ,be stored safely beyond reach of !children and careless adults. 8.. Never a tree or fence with ,a loaded glizt. • 9. Never shoot at a flat, hard sur- ae tn• the surface of water. 10. Do not mix gunpowder and HOW TO HELP BUSINESS Our Kincardine contemporary has drawn attention 'to an article in a. recent issue of the American Bank- ers' Magazine. Because we know all businessmen are interested in improving their business, and because we can't help but think there is a lot of common sense in the article, we are reproduc- ing it now. It reads: "No business man in any town should allow a newspaper published in his town to go without his name and business being mentioned some- where in its columns. This does not mean you should have a whole, half or even a quarter -page ad. in each issue of the paper, but your name and business should be mentioned, if you do not use more than a two-line space. A stranger picking up a newspaper should be able to tell what business is represented in a town by looking at the paper. This man who does not advertise his business does an injustice to himself and the town. The man who insists on sharing the business that comes to town, but re- fuses to advertise his own is not a valuable addition to any town. The life of a town depends on the live, wide-awake and liberal advertising business men." Quaint Goings On (Sydney Post -Record) Strangest things happen in New Brunswick. A new foghorn on Part- ridge Island, at the entrance to Saint John harbor, has a mournful, two - toned blast resernbling a moose call. So much so it's said to be fooling even moose. Some have been report- ed seen standing on beaches and an- swering the call. Dimly discerned through the fog one surmises. The Guest Speaker (Brockville Recorder and Times) Perhaps we are a bit projudiced, but it seems to us that at annual meetings, when guest speakers have yet to be heard, business discussions could be kept to a minimum. Unfortunately many of these an- nual meetings are long, dragged -out affairs that leave the members hard- ly in a fit frame of mind to settle back and listen to the speaker's ad- dress. Not only is such a practice a long and tedious chore for the members who are present—but it is a bit un- fair to the guest speaker. Sic -Boom -Bah (Toronto Saturday Night) For some time we have been try- ing to have some adolescents we know define exactly what they mean by "school spirit", a term they toss about with nothing like the precision they use in basketball or football. We are grateful, then, to the judg- es at the track -meet in Toronto re- cently who, besides their duties with the stop -watch and scorecard, were apparently called upon to assess the spirit of the competing Schools. The award went to the "efferves- cent" group that "raised the biggest rumpus". We've had a feeling this was what the phrase meant, but we'd been hoping that perhaps it might mean just a little more. No Monopoly (Wingham Advance -Times) Small towns are often portrayed as hotbeds of gossip and intrigue, and places where an innocent reputation can be ruined by the wagging tongues of a few malicious women. Like most generalizations, there may be a certain amount of truth in it. Most people in small towns take a friendly interest in the comings and goings of their neighbors, and some- times that interest may extend to the private affairs of their neighbors as well. As somebody once said, it's usually not curiosity, just interest. We doubt if the trait is particular- ly confined to the people of the small towns. People in the big cities gossip too, the only mitigating feature be- ing the fact that they don't know so many people to gossip about. In any event, we can think of only a handful of malicious gossipers in Wingham, and the majority of them are well known for their bent. And as long as a malicious gossiper is re- cognized as such, she can't do too much damage except amongst the credulous, who would believe any- thing anyway. iktt ' „s, t•e„e•.• , THE /HURON EXPOSITOR OCTOBER 1, 1954 SEEN IN THE COUNTY PAPERS Burned By Gasoline Oscar Ament and Bill Dodd, Yr., of Auburn, each received painful burns about the arms and face on Saturday while working at the new bridge.

Both Brandstand and Kellins are from R.C.A.F. Station, Clinton. Provincial pollee investigated.— Clinton News -Record. A Lot of Rain Less than two weeks ago we were lamenting about the drought and how our pastures and lawns were drying up till the wet season of last week cantle along and then the deluges of rain we had on Tuesday, where in some centres two inches of water fell in twenty minutes. We don't know just how fast it rained here, but It rained like, pouring it out of pails, and so much of it—a real soaker and then some! Farmers with many hun- dreds of acres of beans pulled and in windrows are not feeling too comfortable about it. But we have had spells of rain before and very few beans could not be harvested, so perk up and everything will come all right again. — Zurich Herald Tempest Tears Off Roof A sudden 80 -mile -per -hour gust of wind Tuesday morning blew a large metal -sheeted roof off the barn of Howard Kerslake, one mile south of Exeter. The wreckage was strewn for over 200 yards. One piece landed in the garden of the neighboring farm owned by Lloyd Johns. Part 'of the roof knocked over a tree and upset a corn crib. Although he was inside the barn at the time, the owner didn't hear the roof go because of the noise of the milking machine. When he came outside with a cow, "I looked up and the roof was gone!'' The roof was on the 56x34 steam -sec- tion of the T-shaped barn. Straw and hay were stored in the loft. The wind came up about 8 a.m, and lasted five minutes. — Exeter Times -Advocate, Old Papers Had Photos of Soldiers ,Mr. Robert Newcombe has given us two copies of The Standard, dated August 8, 1918, and February 13, 1930, which to us at any rate make interesting reading. The pa- per during that period was pub- lished by Mr. J. H. R. Elliott, wiho is still quite active on the main street of Blyth. The 1918 issue car- ried a front page picture, of Pte. John A. Cowan and Pte. W. Edgar Cowan, both sons of Mr. Issac Cowan, of Blyth. Both boys had enlisted in the Huron Regiment and at the time their picture ap- peared, were serving overseas in France. Another interesting item referred to the Boy Scouts who were at camp—Patrol Leaders Ly - al Robinson, Gordon Mason and Fred Fawcett and Scouts William Tunney, William Rapson, Williazn Cook, Aubrey Bainton, Hugh Fras- er, Cecil Gardiner, George Cowan, James Ross, Harold Wightman, Wesley Bowen, Frank McCaughey and Hubert Hirer's.

DOIG) (Continued from last week) Isabel was constantly urging hi to put some aside each week; sh often 'quoted John D. Rockefelle Sr.. who still had the first dime h ever .ettimed, or so he said. Eve Gerald endeavored to persuad -131arry to at least drop theod quarter into a jar on his (tress° Even saving coppers would be he Ler than nothing. Harry; had one saved $9.57 worth of coppers, bu a pair of perforated brown oxford in the window of a shoe store i Tanner, priced at $9.35, Iinishe that savings attempt. He never even tried to save af- ter that. Pay day was on Satur- day; he Was usually broke by Thursday and had to borrow around among his friends if any- thing unexpected turned up on Fri- day night for which he needed money. He was a free lender when he had the money and the saying, "he'd give you the shirt off his back" might truly have been said of him if he hadn't been so busy getting loans himself. that people had little opportunity to borrow from him. Harry and Bert Welch had been into Tanner every day for a week on Co-op business, and each day the Chev., with its tantalizing price tag, was in Spender's garage win- dow. Only $100.00! It was enough to make one's mouth water. Harry held out as long as he could and then inquired of the Senior Spen- der if they ever sold cars on credit. If 1 "If 1 had a car I wouldn't be m wanting money for anything else, (3 hardly, excepting gas. And it's the r, long trips that eat up the gas. And e I certainly wouldn't he taking any n long trips.

Why, even young Nels will talk to me and that's more than he'll do with most people. But what's the use? A fellow can't get anywhere with a girl without a car." "To people whose credit is good, we do," said the Elder Spender, forthrightly. Ile had boys of his own. "How mnoh of a down payment do you ask?" inquired Harry. hope- fully. "Half the purchase price," re- plied. Spender. "On second hand cars like this. A third on a new car." "This one would be good enough for me," said Harry, with a sigh. "And how would I pay the bal- ance?" "Four dollars a week until paid. And you won't get better terms anywhere," "Oh, I wasn't criticising your terms," said Harry, hastily, think it over." Harry was so quiet on the way back to Brig End that Bert looked at him curiou,sly two or three times. Harry was thinking bitter- ly. "Two hundred dollars down! It might as well be two thousand. I could likely manage the $16.00 a month. Mother would Maybe let up on My board money if she knew I was paying for a car." Harry paid Isabel $3.00 a Week when he didn't need the money for something else. "Now if I had a car I could catch up to Karen when she's coming home from high school on her bike, and I'd say: Hop in, Karen! This is easier than pushing that crate of yours all the way home."' After I did that a few times she would catch on that I was giving her a rush, and so when I was driving her home some Friday night I could, say, just sort of off- hand: "How about taking in the show at Beaver Meadows tonight, Kar- en? I heard you say once that you liked Clark Gable. He's on at the Majestic just now." She'd look sort of surprised, and still she wouldn't be very much surprised, and theu finally she'd say: "Well, 111 have to ask Dad." And that would be my chance! I'd say: "I'll ask hinntas soon as we get to the store. And I would! I'd come right out flatfooted and say: "I've just been askineKaren to go to the show tonight, Mr. Kel- son. I'd bring her home right af- ter." And Sigmund would laugh that big laugh of his, and say: "I sup- pose you expect me to believe that?" and then he'd add: "If Karen wants to go and her Mother has no objection, it's all right with me." And then Karen would get around her mother as easy as wink and we'd be all Set. But shucks! $2,00.00 down! Well, I can drea.m, can't 1?
