first year of operation, in 1963, and dropped almost $26.000 last year. But for this year they have $9.000 in grants available from the three Maritimé Provinces which will likely mean match- ing federal grants. also a fed- etal grant of $1,000 for youth work and of $500 for judges’ hororarium. This will mean a total of $19,500 in grants. if the federal share comes through as

is expected. A meeting of Island ethibitors will be held in Charlottetown

early in June, when officials of the AWF will explain the new regulations and plans for this fall's fair. Mr. Parent told The Guardian
