Health, the baby show in connection with the

taken into crowds and the board has reluc-
tantly cancelled the show, which has always
been very popular.
The annual fall fair held in Bayfield last
Wednesday and Thursday, brought out a
large number of exhibits. There was a par-
ticularly large and fine display of flowers,

tures and ladies,' work was large and con-
tained many very exceptional exhibits.

prize was awarded to Mr. and Mrs. J. R.
Middleton's baby and second to the child of
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Scotchmer.
