I wonder how many of you noticed the fine display by the Home Economics Glasses of South Huron District High School and the public schools of the sur­ rounding district? Artistically arranged on a white background with our school colors, red and black, in pre- dominace were cotton dresses of various designs. One admired also, four woollen suits in at­ tractive shades of navy, grey and pink. Pyjamas and lounging py­ jamas in cotton, a wine jumper and a blue velveteen skating out­ fit completed the exhibit of grades IX - XII. The work of the public school classes is also worthy of mention — spool-bags, aprons and pin-cushions were neatly and carefully done. Competitive displays of home canning and muffins done by Grades IX - XII attracted much attention, interest and comment. The result of the effort was a first prize for pickled pears. Do you not agree with me that under the splendid'instruction of the Home Economics teacher, Miss Kartushynj that these girls, 'The Homemakers of Tomorrow,’ by entering their projects have made this fall fair a more inter­ esting event? 1952 - 53.

A, Ness and his boys are to be commended for such excellent work which we think was a real addition to the fair exhibits.
