FEDERATION FIELD
DAY SETS RECORD,
Exhibits and Contests Enthrall Large
Crowds At Clinton Community
Park Wednesday
Blest with bright, warm sunshine, a
cooling breeze, a huge crowd, and a'
program of events which sparkled with
entertainment, the fourth annual field
day of the Huron County Federation
of Agriculture was held in Clinton
Community Park, Wednesday after-
noon, From 10:30 a.m., until long af-
ter 8,00 p.m., a program of sports a
beauty contest, prize awards, softball
games and other attractions kept the
crowd on its collective toes.
Directors of the federation announ-
ced that the crowd neared the 2,000
mark at the height of the day—during
the afternoon—and said that gate re-
ceipts had surpassed last year's record
mark by more than $400. The direct-
ors said Wednesday's affair was the
most successful ever staged by the
Federation.
Highlights of the program was the
address by Premier George A. Drew
of Ontario. After his speech M. P's.
and M.P.P's. addressed the crowd and
-then Mr. Drew presented the prizes la
winners of the junior judging competi-
tion and the essay contest held in con-
junction with the field day.
When the large crowd was not list-
ening to speeches or thrilling to the
many and varied attractions, the people
were strolling through grounds, walk-
ing in and out of the many exhibits,
which in themselves were a great at-
traction. These ranged all the way
from machinery and equipment to im-
prove farming methods, kitchens and
sanitation, to displays of medals, native
birds, coins, Indian relics, and guns,
Also included in these exhibits were
displays of sewing done by the young
girls of the district and one from the
Ontario Department of Health in
which stress was placed on correct
diet.

attracted the younger members of the
crowd, the feature for them was the
presentation of prizes by Premier
Drew. Leading the list in the judging
competition was Bruce Roy of Londes-
boro, who amassed a total of 656
points out of '700 to win the senior div-

the dancers to some extent, but what
they lacked in space they more than
made up with their enthusiasm, the
small platform shaking and rocking
under their agile feet.

another favorite with the crowd and
the announcement of the winner was
just as enthusiastically greeted as were
