The Huron Expositor, 1982-09-08, Page 7ssels Post s ort Shots by Evelyn Kennedy Time; There never seems to be enough time to do all things that must be done; those ' that are an obligation; some we have always wanted to do; with leisure time left„over to simply relax, forget all our problems and remember the many happy times and pikasures le has given us' ******** Thir een young ladies of • Brussels and community will be competing for the right to ,wear the Queen of the Fair crown. The event, sponsored - by the Brussels Agricultural Society, will take place' Saturday, September I lth, at the Queen of the Fair concert and dance in the B.M.G. Community Centre. After seeing their pictures in this paper last week you surely will want to be there to see them all in person, listen to their speeches, that along with prior -interviews with the judges, will decide the outcome of the competition. Will your choice be the same as that of the judges or will someone else wb the Crown ofthe Queen of the Fair? Each girl will be required, in her speech, to tell "What 1 hope tb contribute to society in my lifetime." That should make interesting listening for the audience. Speeches will be given at 8:00 p.m. with dancing 'to follow at 9:00, p.m. Then, what everyone will be waiting for, the exciting monient of the *crowning of the chosen queen of the fair at 11:00 p,m,. • ********* Vacation time is over, Young folks are back in the school room. Teachers have again taken up the reins of control. It is no easy task to lead each individual student in their travel along the road to greater knowledge. They must recognize the needs of those who have learning problems, and have the desire and wisdom, to give the help they need; inspire the dreamers and the ones who do not exert themselves to attain their potential; provide the stimulant that keeps eager young minds •interested and active. It takes dedicated people who have a real interest in children, to be good teachers. Such persons deserve praise and gr itu Cr._. ;brk discuss o ting Thosij naughty littl gremlins tampered last week with names in° a Short Shots about the Armenian Terrorists. 'In the sentence which read "In both these cases news agencies were telephoned by American Terrorists claiming they were 'responsible." It should have read Armenian Terrorists, Again the same mistake was made in the one .when Calire Sterling said "These are not true Armenian Nationalists." It should not have appeared as American Nationalists. My apology to the Americans. This is fall fair time of the year. The time when town and country folk get to ether for the anneal showing of the choice r' ducts of their labour on the. farri s and in the omes in town and country.
