Annual Meeting 'Learns
Membership Up ; 1947
Fair Best Yet.
Reviewing the past year's activities
members of the Seaforth Agricultural
Society, at their annual meeting in
Carnegie Library Saturday afternoon,
learned the 1947 fall fair was the best
in the.. history of the society. Presi-
dent J. M. Govenlock, who presided,
stressed the keen interest shown by
all connected with the fair and the
increase in exhibits and •their quality
which helped to bring about the suc-
cess. He hoped that the same inter-
est and hard work would continue in
1948.
According to the secretary there
were 65 paid-up members in 1947 and
76 members thus far in 1948, showing
an 'increase of 11.
.Elgin Nott was appointed to repre-
sent the society which is affiliated
with the Huron County Federation.
The report of Secretary -Treasurer
Mrs. Joseph Grummett, revealed that
receipts during the year totaaled
$4,344.55, including a balance from
the previous year of approximately
$200. Expenditures including prize
money paid or $1,741.15, totalled $4,-
061,31. The society enters the new
year with a balance of $283.20. Mrs.
Grummett pointed out prize money
paid was increased over the previous
year by $625.
Reports were read with some sug-
gestions being given for the improve-
ment of the fair for 1948. Among
these was that there should be a new
class in horses, namely the Hackney
pony class. In the cattle department,
it was thought, the Dual Purpose
Shorthorn class should be added,
while John Powell suggested that the
black pig be an addition to the hog
section and that the new swine club
be continued, Much credit was given
to the schools for the big part they
took in the fair and the fine exhibi-
tions shown. It was felt that there
should be more adult exhibitors, and
also to aid in this matter the prize
list should be printed much earlier.
LeRoy G. Brown, Huron County ag-
ricultural representative, recommend-
ed that field crop competition be or-
ganized early, also that the fair con-
tirue the swine club and that junior
exhibits increase in vegetables, poul-
try and potatoes, with prizes set at
the same standard as school fairs.
Comments were made in regard to the
display of entries in the eggs and
dr r s: ed poultry classes, which were
said to be the largest in Canada. -
Mrs. Grummett and Russell Bolton
will attend the Ontario Fairs and Ex-
hibits Association convention in To-
ronto Feb. 12 and 13. Russell Bolton,
E B. Goudie and Robt. McMillan were
named to the field crop competition
committee.
Pending further information from
the Department of Agriculture con-
cerning the number of directors to
be permitted, no action was taken to
elect a, board of directors.

The Church -Going Habit
Did you ever stop to consider the
fact that it is easier to go to Church
every Sunday than it is to go only
occasionally-
When church going is a regular
habit there is no debate about the
matter; it is settled in advance. But
when we allow ourselves the false
luxury of going "when we feel like
it," or when the minister's sermon
subject looks especially interesting,
or when we have not been up too
late the night 'before, we have open-
ed the door to all sorts of difficulty.
When the matter becomes something
to decide, it becomes a debate. We
have to thrash out every week the
recurring problem of "To go or not
to go—that is the question."
The easiest method is to settle the
matter once and for all, and having
settled it, to feel the satisfaction of
those who know the value of regular
habits in all phases of living.—(Con-
tributed).

A supply car, part of "a C.N.R.
freight train, was damaged to the ex-
tent of approximately $50 Saturday
evening, when a fire, caused by an
overheated stove in the car, broke
out while the train was standing in
the Seaforth yards. The Seaforth fire,
brigade responded to the call at 7
p.m., and declared the fire out at
7.35. However, an hour later, when
the freight, en route from. Goderich
to Stratford, was three miles out of
Seaforth, the fire was discovered
burning again. The train backed into
Seaforth, and the fire department was
called a second time. This time the
fire was extinguished.

As Voting Day Draws
Campaign Warm tp With ONTARIO LE:.DE'
Both Candidates Facing
Re ivy Schedule of Meet-
ings.
With slightly more than two weeks
left before voters in Huron cast their
ballots in the winter by-eleetion, can-
didates are hard at work filling a
heavy schedule of meetings at widely
scattered points throughout the. rid-
ing. The activity is exemplified by
the number of organizers which the
Ontario associations of both Liberal
and Progressive -Conservative parties
have sent into the riding.
While main roads are in good con-
dit°ien, travel on township roads is, in
many cases, impossible by other than
sleigh.
Hon. Farquhar Oliver, Liberal lead-
er, who has been in the riding for a
week, fulfills a promise he .made to
the Liberals of Ontario when he was
chosen leader. Mr. Oliver said that
he was in-tfie riding to make sure of
a Liberal victory. Oliver said he was
informed that Premier Drew will on-
ly make one appearance. "Mr. Drew,
I am told, plans only to come to this
riding on Friday night, Feb. 12," said
Mr. Oliver. "I'm not afraid of snow
or ice, I am going to be in this rid-
ing as long as I am able to overcome
the snow blockade and discuss with
the people of Huron County the is-
sues that are paramount in this by- �
election."LEc
Conservatives plan a series of
meetings headed by the appeara•.ce of
Premier Drew in Goderich, Feb. 12.
Two meetings are scheduled for Sea -
forth next week, Byron Cathcart,
M.L.A., West Lambton, will address
an organization meeting in Cardno's
Hall Feb. 3, and on Saturday after-
noon, Feb. 7, Hon. T. L. Kennedy,
Minister of Agriculture, will speak in
the same hall.
Liberals have a meeting scheduled
for almost every day, and at every
meeting Candidate Benson W: Tuckey
and Mr. Oliver will speak. On Mon-
day night Beechwood will hold . a
meeting and Tuesday • meetings will
be held -at Grand Bend and Crediton.
Wednesday is Goderich's day, and on
Thursday Mr. Oliver will be in Clin-
ton. It is expected Robert MoCubbin,
-M.P., parliamentary assistant to the
Federal Minister of Agriculture, will
take part in the Liberal campaign.
Meanwhile election officials are
hard at work arranging the mechanics
of taking the vote. Probably more
than others, they are subjected to
hardships in battling snow -blocked
roads completing the setting up of
necessary polling sub -divisions.
W. E. Southgate, Huron returning
officer, announced Monday that R -C,
A.F. student personnel at Clinton and
Centralia stations will not lose the
right to vete in the Huron by-elec-
tion. The original instructions were,
according to Mr. Southgate, that on-
ly staff personnel would be allowed
to vote.
Possibility of the service personnel
losing their right to vote created a
perplexing situation which resulted in
the matter being brought to the atten-
tion of Judge T. M. Costello, chairman
of the election board of Huron Coun-
ty.
Concerned with the probability that
almost 1,000 young air force men
might be disfranchised, representa-
tions were made to the election board.
