Descending on the attend- ants he queried and argued happily through an exhausting afternoon and evening = until penniless and weary he again bowed to adult domination and reluctantly dragged himself home to a dreamless couch. No more than minutes after the noon bell had signalled the end of school for the day, breathless ur- chins were darting through the fair gates and speeding for the cluster of tents housing the Midway, one Mecca for Oshawa's juvenile popu- Jalon on "Children's Day" at the air. Following these fore-runners, and with a trace of decorum, smaller children with their parents, and se- date young misses arrived in a con- tinuous stream until every concese sion and ride in the park wis sur- rounded by s of hap- py children. The rain wi started round three o'clock and continued inter mittently until about four-thirty was an abstract annoyance, and did not cause one small person to leave the grounds. A few sought shelter under awnings, but most held their hard-won positions in the line-up for rides or in the mobs who fought to buy ice-cream, candy floss or po- tato chips. For the young ladies, the rat-tail hair-do quickly replaced the curls and waves of the earlier af- ternoon, The grand-stand performance at- tracted many of the children after the first wild scramble in the mid- way and a good crowd was seated before the start of the afternoon performance. It was unfortunate that the rain curtailed the acts, but the screams of laughter which greet- ed the antics of the clown indicated chat the children were receiving va- lue for their money. One of the youngest persons on hand on Tuesday was Dude Gary Jarvis of Oshawa, Gary at the ma- ture age of four months, appeared to be enjoying the fair as much as his brothers, Eddie and Billie, ages two and four. When asked by The Times-Gazette if he were en- Joying himself, Gary clutched his bottle and gave forth with an ecs- tatic "Goo." His father and mother, Mr, and Mrs. Lester Jarvis appeared young enough to be joining in the festivities. "Children's Day" has and gone, but it will lin ong in the memories of all who were there. The children will recall their en- joyment of the unusual delights for years to come, and the parents will swear, as they. do every year, NEV~ ER AGAIN, CONDITION IMPROVED The condition of Mrs, Cyril Tay- lor, Cobourg, injured in an accident last Tuesday night while walking along the highway In Cobourg, was reported as slightly improved.
