Annual Convention (continued from front page) Mrs. Harold Pond, Simcoe stated I am assuming that everyone in this room is actively connected with a Fair; either as a Lady Director, an Associate Director, a Secretary or an | assistant in one of these departments. Now, whether you realize it or not --you Do make plans for your Fair, and you undoubtedly spend quite a bit of time and energy thinking about it and planning for it, so why not put that time and energy to its maximum use and do your planning in a syste- matic way? Do you remember back in your pub., lic school days you learned a little WIE WEE and Mrs, Leslie The "birds" are| spent the week-end at their respective | thyme that went like this? I had six faithful serving men, They taught me all I knew; Their names were WHAT and WHEN and WHY, And HOW and WHERE and WHO? You will never find a better place ROXY THEATRE Uxbridge to put them to work than at your Fair; They can change your job from work to play, and they can! give you a feel- ing of satisfaction in having done that job._properly and well. Here's how they will work for.you if you ask them WHAT should I do? WHEN? HOW? HOW should I go about it? WHERE do Tglaok for suggestions and material? : WHO do I need to help me, and do they know I need them and what I expect of them? If you can ask yourself these ques- tions and get a satisfactory answer, you can put your aspirins up on the shelf and you can go to the Fair pre- pared to enjoy it. - WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? PLAN EARLY: There just is no such thing as too soon to start planning your Fair. Even while it is going on, as your judging is being done, amid the somewhat bewildering hub-bub that seems to be a part of every Fair, you should be planning for next year. Pay strict attention to the classes in your department. "Are they up-to- date or outmoded? Did they fill well, or were there several with only one or perhaps no entries? If so, get rid of them now.
