"Have I: something to offer, help Craft people in the area become a part of Fair, as they have a great deal to offer". She said don't let money be the only ob- jective of your Fair Board, but rather use local talent and leave the professiOnal shows for TV. No one needs hire talent for the local Fairs, plenty of it abounds in, each and every area. Keep your money for prornotiOn of talent shows and Craft exhibits. , She praised Ripley for their initiative in having a social. •evening and inviting surrounding Societies. Also she stressed the importance of receiving reports from the women's section before November 1st and to this Mr. Harris 'added that the complete • report be ih.his hands also by that, time. • John D. Thomson, past District Director introduced the guest speaker, Frank Wall, Vice Presid- ent of the Ontario Federationof Agriculture and a fruit farmer .from Kent County. • Mr. Wall explained that Gordor who was to have been pres- ent, was in Ottawa attending to the Farmer's needs and couldn't be at District 10 meeting. Mr. Wall was a very fluent vfeaker and explained the various changes in farming in all areas. and thus changes in the Fairs program. Not many years ago people frowned on the use of • tractors he said , and how many accepted the use of chemicals with favour, or the transplant of ovum and the growing of corn and beans so far north. These all have come to pass and so he felt Fairs needed to,make changes and •that they would thrive for another hundred years or more. First of all one must be a contributor, / and one must know exactly how many young and old alike were enjoying the Fairs, where we could ;remedy the problem if one •exists. He too stressed the im- portance of using local talent - no professional show i - these are for TV or thosewho sit at home. He said the big factor in a good Fair was the togetherness ,irnag- inative thinging and a contribu- tion to the community with everyone having a part. A need is felt for Craft and Art Shows, or they wouldn't be . so popular. "Get behindthese projects and give the people what, they want".
