Fordwich Hobby Fair Inspires Poetry Last week's hobby show in Eord- wich, sponsored by the local branch of the Women's Institute, was so suc­ cessful that it inspired poetry in those who had a hand in its success, Miss Mary Byrd, of Fordwich, wrote the following in honor of the occasion: The hobby fair was held with pride on a mild October day, The crafts and handiwork, flowers too, were out on gay display. The tea was poured by willing hands and food was passed around; The budgies sat within their cage, but never made a sound. Some antiques came from Ireland, that isle beyond the sea, But the handwork of the Hollander was wonderful to me, Just how those ladies sat and smocked, thru’ hours without end; And fancy work was there to show how nicely colours blend. The flowers in their pots were dressed in very pretty hue, While trays and pictures hung around for everyone to view. The pastry was of texture good, the bread and jelly, too. And then we had our tea cups read with futures fine and true. The Donnybrook ladies served lunch. Personals Mr, and Mrs, Chas.
