FLORAL HALL.
We will not give thdname of every article,
but few things OF interest, perhaps. S II

were quite Interesting. Mrs j ID Wright
showed some old books, among which was q
Vermont register bearing date 1917. Mrs
Edward Baker, towels. etc, made in 1897 and
1887: Mrs Curtis Wheeler, Fairfax, agrioul-
tural wreath very nice. Mrs B Maynard,
pen work by n prisoner in Dannemora, a
wonderful piece of work. There were many
other things OF interest, but time forbids 10
give an account of each. Enough to saw that
the hall was we'll filled from tho ladies' de-
partment Though the day was cloudy aud
cold, every one seemed TO enjoy themselves,
and are convinced that there is such thing
~ good fair without horse trot.
