FIND INTEREST 'INCREASING
(Contributed by Mrs, J. Grummett,
Women's Representative, Dis-
trict 8)
The largest attendance to date,
close to 1100, men and women,
attended the 62nd annual conven-
tion for fair board delegates held
in the King Edward -Sheraton Ho-
tel in Toronto last week. Almost
one-half of those registered were
women.
Although the women's section
has beep organized only since 1937,
interest and enthusiasm have in-
creased almost unbelievably' prov-
ing to no small degree the Minor -
tent role played in fall fairs by
women.
Organized by Mrs. Ethel Brant
Monture, of the Indian Reserve,
near Brantford, and who herself
was its first president, an office
she held for three consecutive
years, she has seen the organiza-
tion grow from 17 in attendance to
close to the 500 mark. Now holding
the office of honorary president,
she attends each and every con-
vention.
Two years ago she was instru-
mental in sponsoring an essay
competition for elementary school
pupils by offering the first prize
money on a provincial level. Ad=
ditional prizes are offered by the
O.A.A.S., but the whole project
is in charge of the women's sec-
tion on provincial, district and lo-
cal fairs' levels. The idea behind
the competition is to recall to our
children's minds the early history
of the country. The subject of this
year's essay was announced -at the
recent convention by 1Vvrs: Mon-
ture, namely, "The Plage of the
Indian in Canadian History." It
is hoped that all the schools in
the area will take advantage of
this splendid competition, and
plans are to send copies of the
rules and regulations to all schools
in the . county through its inspec-
tors.
-Mrs. Murray Young, of Coch-
rane, is the immediate past presi-
dent of the women's section, O.A.
A.S., with the new president being
Mrs. Harold Telfer, RR 2, Paris.
John E. Sierilon, of the Mitchell
Society, and Mrs. J. Grummett,
Seaforth, continue Tor another
year as director and .representa-
tive, ,respectively, for District 8
(Perth -Huron). James Mair, of
Brussels, stepped up to first vice-
president of the provincial board,
while Ken J. Reaney, of Mitchell,
was named director on the Class
"A" and "B" fairs' provincial
board.
Several in this area taking part
in various way at this year's con-
vention were: M. L. "Tory"
Greg, now of London; George Gear
of Walkerton, agricultural repres-
eptative for Brute; Mrs. A. D.
Koehler, Durham; Le Roy Brown,
of Lindsay, former agricultural re-
presentative for Huron; Jas. Mair,
Brussels; Stafford Johnston, Bea-
con -Herald, Stratford; Miss Flor-
ence Eadie, representing Miss
Helen McKercher, director Home.
Economies Service, Toronto; Mrs.
L. G. Lymburner, Port Colborne,
president. F.W.I.O.; John Siemon
and Mrs. J. Grummett.
A touch of spring was brought
to the women's meeting by Prof.
John Weall, O.A.G., Guelph, with
an illustrated talk` on "Planting a
Spring Garden."
Mrs. Alex McKinney, of Bramp-
ton, was again s teeessful in hav-
ing on display varied crafts gath-
ered from throughout Ontario. One
of the most interesting was that
of "Silk Screening" by Mrs. E.
Hoey, of Moffat, in the Guleph
area. Her designs are most orig-
inal and typically Canadian.
Again the Seaforth prize list re-
ceived an award, this year taking
fourth place in the class 'B' fairs
section.
A delightful musical program
was enjoyed one evening. during
the.. convention when a mixed.chor-
us of 35 voices presented patriotic,
folk, popular and spiritual selec-
tions. Among the vocalists were
Jack Lashey, son of F. A. Lash-
ley, director of agricultural socie-
ties for Ontario, and Marie Hart,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack
Hart, Toronto, and a granddaugh-
ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Char-
lie Hart, .formerly of Roxboro.
Judge C. L. Austen, Guelph, was
the guest speaker at the banquet
held to close the convention. The
800 in attendance at the banquet
listened intently to his humorous
but applicable address on "Take
Your Time." Those in attendance
were in agreement that this year's
convention was one of the best.
Attending from Seaforth were
