The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1928-10-04, Page 3THE EXETER TIMES-ADVOCATE THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4tJ>, 192S Zurich Fall Fair ! Zurich Fair day on Tuesday start­ ed off with one of those dreary and cold looking autumn days that are always so unwelcome, and while the air was almost unseasonablely cold, it could not help but make one say that this is anything but "Fair Wea­ ther” and it most certainly proved thus, as he sun was out only a few minutes all forenoon, and then just -when, the crowd had gathered and were hoping for a clearing up, down came the rain accompanied by snow, which later developed into almost a real hail storm, and very soon shattered all hopes of (holding the horse races and other speed con­ tests. There was a good representa­ tion of horses present, and if the weather man would have been more ■favorable, a good race would likely have been held. Owing to the un­ favorable and unpromising looking weather, the usual large attendance were not present, and the elements took all the snap and charm out of the day’s sport and so the 192 8 Zu­ rich Fall Fair will go down in his­ tory as one when at times the ground was covered with snow. The inside exhibits were all that could be look­ ed for, especially in the ladies' de­ partment, which was a little better than the average. Some very fine business exhibts were shown, and those sufficiently interested to make such an exhibit, are to be congratu­ lated in helping the fair along in this way. The displays of W. G. Hess & Sons, as well as that of J. Gascho & Son also were worthy of mention. HORSES General Purpose brood mare ac­ companied by foal—Jas. McBride, J. A. Manson & Son, Roy McBride; Foal—Roy McBride.

In the Westinghouse Receivers sensitivity has been developed to the full, possibilities of present day radiotrons. More than that, the 6 tube Westinghouse Models have power in abundance —reserve power to bring in the very distant stations with clarity and reasonable volume. Extraordinary sensitivity is the result of the com­ bined laboratory engineering of Westinghouse Radio and Radiotron Engineers to create the perfect radio receiver for Canadian conditions. - AUTHORIZED WESTINGHOUSE DEALERS For Batteryless, Battery and the Full Line of Radiola Models F.
