M. Iiibertson in two different sub- jects introduced to Town Council kst Friday night. Fit .was the suggestion that efforts be made to revive the agri- culturaI fair at Goderieh. Coun- cillor Robertson said that Agricul- tural Park is a beautiful piece of e ,+ound which is not being used as ouch as it might be, and the WANTED A limited number ,of farmers to grow s minimum of one half acre or. more of rasp- berries or strawberries.

Councillor ",obertson said he 'had talked with various people from the rural areas who had said that the Town should have a tall fair. Be urged the town council not to just think about it but to act on it. e suggested haat Goderich mer- chants and others be asked to join with Town Council to discuss the resumption of a fell fair here. He also suggested that it might be worked in as part of the Trade Fair which had been successfully carried on by the Kinsmen Club. Second suggestion of Councillor Robertson was the locating of a sales barn for livestock at Gode- rich. He noted that other muni- cipalities in the area. had them and felt it would definitely benefit Goderich to have one here, too. "One of the greatest industries around is the farming industry and I think it's about time we did something about it," said Council- lor Robertson. Mayor J. 1!. Graham recalled fall fairs of the past and how interest dwindled in them until they died. Councillor Robertson said that possibly the old fair building, which leaked badly, •-was a con- tributor to the death of the fair. people compete in the oil business Did you know there are more than 10,000 people engaged in the search for oil in Canada?

Miles, Huron A. Rep. Theft Charge Dism°ssed After 12 Persons Testify Extremely good weather for the last week of October made it possible for many farmers in the County to 'finish many of the jobs which sometimes are lett undone because of fall weather. If this good weather continues most of the grain corn in Huron County will have been picked and stored. Most of the sod which farmers plan to plow for spring crops will have been ,plowed. Showers early last week were valuable in increas• ing the amount of moisture which was in the soil making it Consider- ably easier to plow or cultivate. Pastures remain in good condition and are expected to carry the cattle as long as weather will permit. Many farmers report that they have more cattle than their stable will hold but the price situation as far as beef is concerned indicat- es that this is not the time to market cattle which can be satis- factorily fed for a longer period. 0 0 LAYMEN'S SERVICE The Sunday 'evening service a Nonth Street United Church we laymen's service.

E. Holmes following a .lefigtlly hearing which 12 persons gave teetlnnony. The magistrate dieneisaed the. charge agaiest Arthur Clark, of ,Bxitennia road east, who pleaded not guilty. The magistrate said he had a reasonable doubt as to whe- ther or not Clark was the mann seen in the theatre at 1.15 a.m. on Thursday, October 24, by Constable Martin Horan. On foot patrol, Constable Horan spotted a roan standing in front of the candy counter Inside the glass doors of thetheatre. This man ran into the theatre followed by another man Who was about six feet tall, said -the cenetable, Constable Moran summoned aid and a search of the building was made, but no one was found. The theatre exit doors had been opened and the door • was pried off the candy counter. Constable Horan said that he re- cognized one of the men who had been in the theatre as Clark, but defence Counsel James Donnelly drew out' the admission that the officer had not put Olark's name in his on -the -spot notes about —the case until several hams later. Magistrate Holmes later said that if 'Horan was sure he bad recogniz- ed ec gnic- ed Clack he should have put his name in the notes made at the time. As it happened, Constable Horan did not insert the name into his notes until much later. The court ob erved that it is not good practice for an officer to bath -track later and UI in notes. A constable ;must include in his notes only those things he has seen up to the time of writing, said the magistrate. Under cross-examination, Con- stable Horan said he had made no notes on the facial characteristic's of the man he saw in the theatre. He agreed he had only a very brief moment in which to make obsery atioos. Constable Horan said that he had known Clark previously, having first niet him ut ;Woodstock. Other persons . called to testify by the crown were Constable George McIntyre, Diane Neville, who operates the candy counter at the theatre; Clyde Allison, care- taker, and George Jenner, 'manager. Mr. Jenner saki it might have been possible for someone to open one of the exit doers to gain entry to the building, though all doors were locked on the night of the offence.
