EXRccvc William GlbblnSles thc vandals who rannckedhll home last Friday night must be strangers or they would not have chosen his house to search for valuables Mr and Mrs Gibblns whose home is next door to the township police office in Stroud were attending party lnthe hall for Doug Campbell and on returning they lolsndtheir home had been ransacked but very little taken except bottle of milk They were apparently looking for money and must have been strangers or they would not have chosen our place Mr Gibblnl remarked cheral homes in Harrie were entered the same evening school Fair Big and Successful People who are wondering where all the money paid for school taxes goes should have been At Stmud on Wednesday Sept 15 in sea the turnout of pupils at Innlsfll School Fair At this fair the sun seems to shine when it is held at Strand but frowns at Churchill perhaps because there is no shed or rink It the Ilttcr place and the ot tendants cannot get out of the rain Anyway the weather was per fect and the attendance and on tries broke all records One did not realize the attendance until the parade began to assemble in the park for the marching com etition Then as the school by schoolot marching children par aded from the Presbyterian Church lawn down into tho park and assembled before the grand stand bleachers and the total began to mount to over thou sand one really knew that we were fastgrowing municipality This did not represent all the children of all the schools as thcrcrwera some class rooms that did not attend Thcle is little doubt but that immediate expansion of the schools Ihroughout both areas is an lmrnedlatenocesslty The size or some of the classes that were in the march past would make one wonder how they were able to find seating for them all There were plenty of entries for every event Some had to be disqualified as the entry card did not specify the name of the varllt ety The Judging and the cias ing of the events was very cap ubly supervised by

list but have been promised both Innlsfil and Essa which was also recordbreaker fair One person could not be at all the events being heard as they were divided between the hall the United Church and the school frhc public speaking was very in ieresting and competition good That the event is well worth the efforts of those who take part scents amply proven by the interest and attention which was displayed this year The need of some typool educational enter tainment would be suggestion which might be considered by the committee The safety league might have been approached to have available interesting film and talk which would have given the children place to sit down and begentertained as well as educated on this needy subject InniinI police did good job at traffic control as fliers was constant parade of pedestrians across the road The Womens Institute which served lunch to the committee had booth on sell hot dogs and drinks that sold out before the crowd had dispersed There were lost children and parents just like the exhibition Mrs George parent Iiiviog in Minets Point had difficulty in locating herfamily But we did have theplessure of delightful chat with her during her hunt and learned she is another of our manynrdcnt renders llhe school fair is well launched on its road to isucccss The grant pl $100 by the township had not been applied for but Secretary
