Masters Beal and Bobbins showed some very nice work in 

 wood carving. Keep on boys and see what next year you can 

 carry to show off your work. 



I might go on mentioning things that were made quite nicely 

 and were also very prett}^, but time and space will not allow. 



Now children, a few words let me add. Try next year and 

 see if you can't have your department the best, both in quality 

 and quantity. Remember, that in a few years you will repre- 

 sent the Domestic department and the department for fancy 

 work ; — that those who represent them now will be gone, so 

 next year have this in mind when you are making something for 

 the Fair, and think, "I will try and do my very best," and also 

 try and get so'me others to make something, so that they won't 

 have to spread mats on the table to fill up the space set apart 

 for this department, for those can just as well hang up, and in 

 that way decorate the walls.
