It was then I I tried to keep on smiling cheerfully, Though hope was almost gone I grit my teeth and kept on.- But there are other reasons why we have lived over nine-and-a-half years over the allotted span of seventy years.

We 4 try to understand that money is need- ed to run the town, and thus the levy is made. If not all collected that year, I ' is the deficiency spread over all- of'us 1 the next year, and so on?

Well, if so,.those in `town-who` lend their money are practically help- ing to pay their own interest and are not getting what they think they are, for invariably the. rate has kept rising during the past number of years. Am, I right? Is it fair to those of us_ who keep our taxes paid up? - NELLIE RANKIN SISSONS.

Though spokenin the `most kindly way, the ratepayers have a very sorry pic- ture presented and it is regrettable that it was `not delivered before the home ' ination as it might have changed some- what, the personnel of the present council, as ny of them are respons- ible for the eplorable, wasteful and ,unbusinesslike state of affairs that face us today. -One wonders if they manlge their. own private affairs in this anner.

This is that" no one be allowed to bring in vegetables, etc., on thepsecond day of the Fair, as the appearance of some being much fresher than those placed on` the table the previous day. There is not the slightest doubt about this.-I would like ` to rem ind, this gentleman that each competitor has the same privilege and .that in most `cases a man wins on his merits. Does `he also think_the patrons of the Fair pay to see a lot of wilted celery, lettuce and various other pro- duce? No sir. I cannot agree with this idea and I,don't think'a good many more of the exhibitors would. I might add, that the bulk, of the stuff, ac- cording to my experiences, has- always been in its place _on the first day. Therefore as long as a person does not interfere with the dutiesof the judge I do not seethat itmatters much. I might say that a large exhibitor has to be there the second day to `watch his produce, otherwise he will find the tickets exchanged. Yours truly, FRED S.
