Priceville Fair Hard Hit One of the hardest hit fairs this year was that of the Priceville Agri- cultural Society held on Thursday and Friday of last week. Rain came in floods Thursday night and kept on Friday morning at intervals. Rain was not falling in the afternoon, but the weather was theatening and the crowds did not brave the weather to attend. The show in the hall was excellent and of fine quality. The 'SaMe exhibit was the best we have seen at, a fair for some time, more especially in the grade classes. Some excellent Herefords were in attend- ance. The horse classes were not very largely filled. The concert at night was one of the bestt hat has ever been given at F'riceville. The entertainers were Alice Dunbar, eomediene; Jean Ander- son, soloist and Agnes Munro, enter- tainer. The Campbell orchestra of Hanover supplied music both after- noon and evening. We understand that the gate re- ceipts in the afternoon amounte to about $55, while the receipts at the concert went to the hig mark of |115. CHICAGO TRIP (Continued by W.H.T.) We reached Chicago on a Satur- day afternoon and remained there until the following Wednesday even- ing. During that time we saw the best that the Windy City had to offer us such as the Field museum, prob- ably the finest museum on this con- tinent; the beautiful parks and the wonderful sky-scraper buildings; Michigan avenue, with its sidewalk 35 feet wide; the lift locks over the river which should run into Lake Michigan, but which owing to the pilfering instincts of Chicagoans, is running the other way to join the waters of the Mississippi, and help- ing to lower our upper lake levels. It is dificult to believe that Chic- ago has a population equal to one- third of that of Canada, or three million but when one realizes that some of the huge sky-scraping ap- artment houses shelter 100 to 260 fam- ilies, and that the city proper is 25 miles across, there is not so much difficulty in granting the contention, Lincoln Park is one of the largest show places in Chicago. We believe we are justified in stating that in this park housed in proper shelter, are thousands of the wild denizens of the forest, including birds and an- imals, specimens running from the humming bird to hippopotamus, all alive. There was a bedlam of noise. We did not understand the language of these birds and beasts but thought we heard one little bird called the Laughing Jackass, from South Amer- ica, humming a popular song which has had a wonderful vogue, entitled How we won the war." We even found some of our ex-Canadians ex- pressing the sentiments of this song. nff^u" •,??'â- '' '*'" '^''nt^in^ some ot the buildings erected during the Chicago world's fair, but these are falling into ruin.
