GR-EATAEST ANNUAL FAIR There is now in progress in Tor- onto the greatest annual exhibition in the world-the Canadian Nation- al. For forty-four years it has been growing'steadily until its beautiful grounds comprise 264 acres, its build- ings number well towards the hun- dredmark and the annual attendance has long passed the million. It `is truly a national display. Practically, everything manufactured or grownf in Canada is shown there, together" with many ne exhibits of natural, resources. -To the person seeking, knowledge, this great national fair presents a marvellousamount of in-` formation in a form easily taken in. People of today want entertainment as well as information--_-many, appar-` ently, more of the formerthan the latter--and, the C.N.E. management: provides an abundance of entertain- ment features. Chief of these are the spectacular -productions before thegrand stand, which usually are of an historical nature, this year's being a representation of the -Durbar . held on the occasion of the Prince of Wales visit to India this year.` It. "is a great and many-sided institution, V at which a few days may most prot- ably and pleasantly be spent; Ava - . * I I "Even though nothirig has been` done locally in this direction, a for- mer Barrieite. Fred W. Grant of Vic- toria, B.C., has been for years at i work upon a scrap book bearing upon the history of Barrie. This contains `many old photos of much interest.` There are already some 1500 of these pictures but Mr. Grant assures The Examinerthat he has room for 10,000 in his two albums. He is par- ticularly` anxious to secure photos previous to 25 years ago. Anyone, willing to contribute one or more of A these old pictures will not only ob- lige Mr.,Grant but will be doing a good turn for Barrie, as Mr. Grant intends ultimately to donate this col-ZN llection to the town. There is, no doubt, much material in existence for such .a museum, if. some strong organization were to take it in hand. `Perhaps the W0- [men s Canadian Club might consitier Ht-T .. T I g z ! I - V . V Recently The Examiner made re- ference to the ne historical collec- tion. Colling`wood' has in the Huron Institute. presses a one a similar Seeing such a display im- with the need of work being done in every town. Barrie some years ago had an historical societvf which put on record inr a series of 4' articles published much valuable in-l formation on pioneer life. There has been, however, no special effort ito establish a museum for articles connected with the history of Barrie and district. While .very few people` in Eastern Canada would benet directly from lsuch a road, all should be interested, . from a national standpoint, in seeing that the $7,000,000 spent in grading should not be wasted. When, for a comparatively small, expenditure, this roadbed, now rapidly `deteriorat- ing, can be made into a serviceable highway, it looks like` good business lto proceed with the scheme. ` According to the report of S. E. Reaugh, C.E., who has pronounced upon the feasibility of the project and prepared estimates of cost, the section of 121 miles between Lob- stick Junction and Jasper Park boundary must'be made wider and the bridges remodelled or new ones built, the total cost being around $166,600. An alterative plan, using existing bridges, reduces the cost by $17,000. These gures, it is admit- ted, are only approximate. 1171, -1 D I An effort is now being madeibyl the Edmonton Automobile and Good ,Roads Association to have this aban- |doned foadbed converted to useful purposes. The Association desires the grade to be` turned over to the Provinces of Alberta and British Col- umbia for utilization as \._a motor highway to connect Edmonton and Vancouver.` British Columbia has agreed to connect up with Alberta as `soon as the latter province has connected up with the boundary. Alberta, according` to the belief of the Edmonton Association, is willing. to construct the road immediately,` `but nothing_can be doneuntil the] grade is released. THE JASPER HIGHWAY r I One of the things that impressed members of the C_anadian Weekly Newspapers Association on their trip westward from Edmonton last year was the enormous Waste represented I by the frackage abandoned when `the G.T.P. and C.N.R, lines were amal- gamated. The grading and trackage is said to have cost around $7,000,- 000 and now that it is unused is, greatly deteriorating. About eight-g een miles of the two hundredmiles) affected are today buried under [eight to twenty feet of sand.

I the way of. street paving, sewers, etc. ~ It must not_ be` imagined, however,' `that Newmarket can make all thesei E betterments and still need less money| _rfor its municipal expenditure. Thel T lower tax rate is due to a much high-' ' er assessment, so thetaxpayer is pay- I : ing quite as much with the lower rate ! ::as he did before. ' Many towns have made `a general increase in their as- T sessment in recent 'years, yet `even 4 ' at the higher gures few comply with i the requirements of the Assegssmenti ' : Act, which says that property is to be 'iassessed at its actual value. `fBigger and better than ever, is the way President Daniel `Quinlan of the Barrie Agricultural Society des- cribes the: coming Fall Fair which is to be held at Agricultural Park on Sept.` 18, 19 and 20. - He believes that the live stock exhibit will. be the best ever, since the live stock` build- ings which have been in the hollow are being brought up on higher. zround where the accommodation for both exhibitor and spectator will be ')f a vastly improved nature. The Barrie Fair has always had the big- zest live stock shqwin Simcoe Co. I Not a week passes but some of the Ivcit-izens, business men_ particularly, are called upon_ by some peripatetic mendicant seeking assistance. Each has a hard luck story, -yet practically none of them have any credentials to 5 support their plea. In many cases the seekers `of charity are apparently physically fit, except for some alleged!` inrmity which may or may not be[ genuine. There are few who would! .grudge assistance. to cases of reali need, but people have decided objec-3 tion to being imposed upon by lazy .imposters who ought to be able to .earn their own living. There should be some way to protect the public `against such. One method would be |to pass a by-law prohibiting `these itinerant alms-seekers from operat- Ring except under a `permit signed by the Mayor and Medical Officer of `Health, In this way every case '_would be givenocareful scrutiny. which de- serving applicants- would have no `need to fear,` and a certain protec- tion would be afforded the citizens from this nuisance. LIVE STOCK AT BAERIE FAIR TO BE BESTEVER THIS YEAR ._.____ . i The special meeting of the York-` 5! shire Worsted Co., held in Barrie on ;.Monday was a most unsatisfactory. lone for the local shareholders. De-i '-nite information as to the cost of the machinery was refused by those` who are in a positionto furnish it: and the details of the company's n-I ,ancial condition as presented were not` Ivery enlightening. Under the circum-S _ stances, it is not surprising that share- 3 3' holders should` petition the Attorney-. .General for a full enquiry. I 77 One would scarcely think that ai summons to police court would be necessary to teach parents not tof leave little children alone in the- home. Yetsuch a case came before ;, the Oshawa police magistrate recenti ly when parents were charged with leaving their two children, one of them eleven months old, alone in the house until after midnight. They had gone out to a dance. After being; severely lectured by the magistrate the offenders were Iet go on suspend- " ed sentence upon payment of costs? and giving recognizance for their fu-! ture goodbehavior. | ! In order to prot by the presence of the summer people, Sutton held its fair in August instead of in the autumn. According to the Express- Herald, the receipts surpassed the wildest dreams of the Fair Board, but from an. agricultural viewpoint the Fair did not measure `up to ex- pectations. Absence ofpthe desir- ed exhibits would not worry the dir- ectors, who evidently altered the date with an eye mainly to gate receipts; knowing that they could not expect a good display in one of the busiest on the farm.
