Making Trading Attractive. “Do vour Christmas Shoppthg Along Danielson’s White Way” is the slogan that has been adopted by the local business men’s association. President of Secretary Leonard H. Healey of the Woodstock Agricultural society said Wednesday afternoon, after the annu- 8l meeting, that strong sentiment had been expressed at the gathering _in favor of a one-day fair for next year. This, of- course, in addition to entry It has been found by the ex- periences of recent years that the last day of the fair, generally known .as the second big day, has been of no benefit from a financial standpoint. A sentiment has been growing that it would be better to consecrate energy on one big dayf This also is the growing sentiment, Mr. Healey says, in many sections of Connecticut. The matter of changing to a one day fair next year has been referred fo the a report will be made well beforé the time for holding the next fair.
