The Junior Section of the Barrie Fair is ahead 01 last year in many respects, with over 400 entries, com pared with 333 last year. The num- ber of classes increased from 46 last year to 64 this year, and there are 89 competitors this year compared with S6 i1I.1933. Among" the new classes are a new variety of com, the Rainbow, Soya Beans and No- Beard Barley. The quality of the exhibits is good. considering; the year. Roots and vegetables are better. In the live stock section the number of entries is not quite up to last year. This IS accounted for by the fact that sev- eral of the juniors largo entries of live stock. are show- ing in the senior class this year A feature of the grain entries this year is that there are 25 entries from reg istered seed, and each exhibitor must have at least 20 bushels of the grain for sal.e. This is to encoura;2;e and assu1'(.- a supply of high ;2:rade seed Another new feature 1 this year is the display of vine pro- l rlu:;`;.', six clubs had splendid displays.

The ris- ing; 01' 183`? so shocked the people of Great Britain that they began to realize there was something radical- ly wrong in Ontario. The affair at Montg'omery s tavern on the nu oi December, 1837, was only the gamer- ing of less than 100 men, unarmed. The story brought to Toronto \vas} that there was a big army. A partyl was sent to find out Ma(ken'/.ie s fcerms, but it was only a bluff to al- low the militia time to assemble.

In many respects the government was the image and transcript of the -British Government, but differed in some ways. The colonial secretary Was over all and did as he liked. There was no control of supply, and as long as there was sufficient funds for to run the government, public works and help for agriculture were neglected. In 1R`7. Mm-kpnvlip nnnpzirprl.

He moved his paper to To- ronto, where he could re at closer range. In 1826 a party of young men one night entered his plant and broke up furniture, took his type and dumped it into the bay. Mackenzie did not get as great shock as wa- supposed, as he was on the verge of bankruptcy. He sued the young men and got enough to pay his debts and start a better paper than he had be fore.
