door prize might be considered, The possibility of a small ad-
mittance charge could also be looked into. It would be interest-

I submit these suggestions hoping they will promote some dis-
_Cussion. Iin no way wish them to be interpreted as disparaging
the efforts cf committees past or present in staging the sale, I
personally know the many dlfficulties encountered and have creat
praise for the workers who have put previous shows over the top,
to the position attained teday.

tower with shelves and pottery: a tent; a gipsy wagon full of
pots; &@ big tarp over all. [t rained - From the top of our tower
was the Faire --- a hayfield for parking, a gateway from
Disneyland: 3 towers of ginger bread from old Vancouver houses

trees f.0) of leather sore, incense = batik. Rain - an open field
with long grass, no mud here - kids - dogs, smiling people -
