good opportunity to make some money by giving an entertainment on the last night of the fair a little further on in the season there will be more shows than people to attend them items- if any reader of our local columns feels disappointed at the omis sion of tho names of their visiting friends they can prevent the recurrence of the same by leaving a little jiote at the office stating what they want in serted and thus please themselves aud do us a good turn such itonos either r ersonal or local are welcome probs at the fair the good people of stouffville and vicinity view ed with equanimity the unpleasant weather of last week thinking that old probs had at last recognised the importance of the stouffville exhibition and was having his bad spell a little bit earlier so that he could show up with a smiling face on both days of our fair on the bridge the youths who congregate on the bridge over the creek and make it uncomfortable for passersby will no doubt soon find the atmosphere too cool for their business ladies passing are often alarmed at the size of the gang they have to pass through and even men are nervous of running the gauntlet of a dozen or more boys concert elsewhere on this page there is a paragraph calling attention to the oversight in not having an entertainment of some kind on the last night of our fair the stouffville baseball club will remedy this defect by

see this ponderous mass turning corners and even completely turning around like an ordinary waggon seemingly under tbe perfect control of its one manager no doubt there are many living at the present day who will sec lot only loaded waggons but light buggies bowling along the highways with electricity as their motive power the bridge attention was called last week to the great need there is for sidewalk union oetweeii daleys hall am mrm fliiits the reason urged was a strongonenamelythe unsighlli- ness of thvtreet but there is a stronger teason yet the opposite side generally known as the bridge has always been on fine evenings a favor te spot for tired youths to rest it must be exceedingly trying to the sensitive feelings of these weary ones to be gazed boldly at by every passer by now it seems only right to leave these citizens undisturbed since they congregate here in such numbers unite tho sidewalks and this is done for then pedestrainsinstcad of passidg and poring at their
