they didnt look so good well thats al ways the way markham had a snappy town team just the same and they deserve credit for the manner in which they forged ahead during the season stouffville was well

and mrs gordon lunau of markham the flowers were given in memory of their mother ms william lewis who passed away one year ago or on the second of march 1934 this is a very touching and fitting way to commemorate such a sad event later the flowers were laid on the grave at the cemetery likewise in memory of her aged father who died in stouffville quite a number of years ago miss mary nicholson of toronto placed a beautiful bouquet of flowers on the chansel at the united church last sunday the late mr nicholson was a resident of the east end living just beyond the 10th concession line tests followed no doubt these reached the government and pro duced the conviction that it would be a very unwise step the minister of agriculture however is anxious that the grants be used solely for agricultural pur poses and has warned against the giving of harness horso races at the expense of the agricultural prize list this practice which is wide spread in the rural sections will not be tolerated the minister warns in some of the local fairs the speeding events are the principal attractions and are strongly sup ported as a means of increasing attendance says the canadian statesman bowmanville which adds they may have their place but the encouragement of that which makes tor improved condi tions was the purpose for which fairs were establised and for which they are continued and supported in too many places the prize list remains unchanged from year to year with the result that the pro fessional exhibitors gather in tho rewards to such an extent that competition in some of the classes practically disappears this is par ticularly so in the ladies depart ment and fine arts of local fairs where some girls now become grandmothers or at least old enough have been exhibiting the same tea towels night gowns scarfs water colors etc for wpll nigh to half a century for this reason the canvassers for the annual contribution are not re ceived as cheerfully nor treated as generously as in other days the re sult is the cancellation of the show fair in various places in recent years it has frequently been suggested that greater good would be accomplished by additional sup port to the school fairs even at the expense of the old time county or township fair would be fully justi fied this is a matter that might well engage the attention of the minister stivers pastry
