FAIR NEWS Recently a questionnaire was sent out to people who had entered their baking, art and handiwork, etc. in the Magrath & Dist­rict Fair in recent years. As a result of this survey, we feel that, unfortunately, there was not enough interest shown to con­tinue the fair this year. Out of 85 quest­ionnaires, only 14 ware returned. The Fair Committee has discussed an alternative. We are inviting anyone with works of Art or a collection of Crafts, or any interesting projects, to display these items in the Arena Friday night and Satur­day afternoon during Magrath's Celebration.
