The baby show was practically the
final act of the day. To be sure. there
was something going on out in the
street showing colts. etc. but some-
how after the babies had been passed
upon there was a general desire to go
home, and when the folks begin to so
home the fair is about over. So pa was
sent out to harness up the old mare
that had been peacefully eating her
hay behind the stone wall on the other
side of the road, while ma and the chill
dren waited placidly for him on the
Grange hall steps. and then. as the
roomy old farm wagon, with its ortho-
dox springs. ratified up to them, they
bundled in, babe fond farewell to the
fair until another year, and We're off
for home.
