The Ladies Aid has in the past had almost the sole care of the main- tenance of the Methodist Church, for years buying the wood formerly used for heating; taking care of repairs, both to the church and the parsonage, and generally serving as good stewards. While this responsibility does not seem to be wholly theirs now, they work hard to keep their treasury adequate to the need, running a big rummage sale in the fall, and a sale and lawn party during Old Home Week; also suppers from time to time. Recently they furnished the new kitchen under the Methodist Church, where a recreation room has been made for church socials and for Sunday School use. The Kenyon Club is a more recently formed church organiza- tion for the younger women of the church. It is becoming very helpful in the life of the church.
STOKES-BALLENTINE POST NO. 92, AMERICAN LEGION
Stokes-Ballentine Post No. 92, American Legion and its Auxiliary Unit continue functioning in a quiet way. Work continues with the firemen on the new meeting place attached to the firehouse. As usual the Post led in Memorial Day Exercises and stands ready to serve as needed at any time.
THE SANDWICH PTA
The Sandwich PTA has been a great help to the Central Elementary school since it was built, buying playground equipment, books and other extra equipment. Its meetings often include a speaker on some topic of the Day. A book fair conducted last Christmas was very successful. A PTA committee has also, for several years taken care of the ski program by which many youngsters are becoming proficient in this winter sport.
THE AMERICAN RED CROSS
The American Red Cross, tho not a club, might be classified as an organization. The Sandwich Chapter of the American Red Cross collects
50
a substantial sum in the fund drive each spring, and maintains a Red Cross Water Safety Program at Squam Lake Beach each summer, with accredited instructor.
There are besides all these the youth groups: Girl Scouts, Brownies, Cubs; and the church has its Junior and Senior Christian Endeavor. A busy place, Sandwich; and if not enough so far to keep one busy, there is the Sandwich Home Industries where one can actually make money having fun. Classes in many crafts are held during the dull months of the year, and with any talent at all you might be putting any number of things, such as pottery, silver jewelry, a hooked chair seat or what- have-you, in the shop for the June opening. This is the founding member of the League of N. H. Arts and Crafts. It all started back in 1926 when the Sandwich Historical Society sponsored a week-long exhibition of handmade rugs in the Library, following a little hint from Mrs. J. Ran- dolph Coolidge. About one hundred were displayed. Mr. Carl Beede secured the cooperation of the Jordan Marsh Co. in Boston, who sent here a dozen of their finest hooked rugs and the head of their rug department. This gentleman spoke one evening about the kinds of rugs that sold best, considering pattern, colors and quality. He judged the rugs of Sandwich origin, explaining why some were preferable to others. Of course, much enthusiasm was engendered, and it was decided to sell rugs and other handcrafts the next summer. When the time came Wm. Heard's vacant store was used. Committee members helped to sell and also ran a little tearoom next door. A $50 profit ended the season. Other crafts- ironwork, weaving, candle dipping, and basketry-were added the next summer, then pieces of small furniture. The reception given this little venture prompted Mrs. Coolidge, after several successful summers, to approach Governor Winant with the idea of extending the idea through- out the state as a means of helping people earn money in their own homes. In due time the League was formed, instruction centers were set up for the untutored, and those who had a craft were encouraged to market it in the new shops. Today there are many League shops like Sandwich, and hundreds of contributing craftsmen. When one realizes that in 1961 summer sales in the Sandwich shop totaled $19,134.58, and that Sandwich-made articles represented $10,446.98 of this figure, you will realize it was all worth while. Sandwich craftsmen, of whom there are about 80, earned a net income that year of $21,916.94 on articles sold in all the League shops.
The success of the Sandwich shop encouraged the governing group to make plans for securing their own building. Mr. Coolidge died in 1928, but this had been his ardent wish, too. In grateful memory for all Mr. Coolidge had done to promote his wife's idea, townspeople, neighbors, family and friends began contributing to a fund which enabled the Com- mittee to buy the Merryfield house they had been occupying and make it over for their needs. Today the beautiful building stands as a monu- ment to the devotion of two people to an idea which meant helping others to help themselves.
Now the only thing that remains to complete our Organizations story is the biggest thing of the year.

SANDWICH FAIR
Held annually on October 12 (or the 11th if the 12th falls on Sunday) Sandwich Fair draws twelve to fifteen thousand people to town to see a really old-fashioned fair at the time of year when the countryside is ablaze with color. It will be recalled that its charter gave the town the privilege of holding two fairs a year, spring and fall. In those early days fairs not only broke the monotony of pioneer living, but were also a place of barter and sale; hence they were a definite part of the colonial picture until good roads and a thriving industry brought about better methods of exchanging goods. From old records we learn of intermittant fairs in Sandwich thru the 1800's, and through them all runs the traditional date, October 12.
The Sandwich Town & Grange Fair Association began the present series of yearly fairs in 1910, celebrating its golden jubilee in 1960. From a few booths set along Main Street, offering mostly food, to the long strings of oxen and cattle tethered in available barnyards, fields, and corners, these early fairs were purely agricultural. However the parade "around the Ring" was always a big feature; there was always a well- known speaker to talk on a topic of the day; and for excitement there were at various fairs harness racing along the roads, a balloon ascension, even a baby show!
As automobiles became the accepted mode of travel, more people came to the fair, and from greater distances. In the 1930's the problem of parking became acute; and after bearing for a time with an increas- ingly unbearable situation the Fair people, intent heretofore on improving the grounds turned their attention to parking areas. By now Sandwich Fairs (from 1938 on) were being held on beautiful Quimby Field, which the Quimby Trustees had converted from a swampy area closely bordering Main Street where the Center Sandwich Postoffice now stands. This was after the fire of 1934 which wiped out all the buildings in that part of town.
Farm and Home exhibits were all housed in the Town Hall, which seemed
ready to burst as exhibitors grew in number. The 4-H, especially, has expanding until now they have most of the second floor, with an equally fine livestock show on the Fair Grounds. So in recent years an exhibit hall was built on the Grounds for fruit and produce, and added to since for additional departments. The fine stage on the Grounds takes care of the vaudeville and the speakers; the Midway has room for a thronging crowd; the cattle show, the poultry, the Class C horse show, the profes- sional judging of livestock by specialists from the state university, all bear witness to the fact that Sandwich Fair is today a "top drawer" affair. Attendance is now figured at from twelve to fifteen thousand. The Asso- ciation has been of great help to the town, for whenever an emergency comes up, like a hurricane or great washout on the roads, or some special project like getting a doctor into town or buying road or fire equipment, this fine body of citizens is ready to offer financial help, usually without interest. Up to 1962 these loans had totaled $37,200; the outright gifts $3,828. Sentiment creeps into an organization even as business-like as the Fair Association. In the early 1940's when an old stage coach came back to Sandwich thru the influence of the late W. Leroy White, the Fair undertook the expense of restoring it, totaling some $8000. Now it is

Durgin Bridge
a treasure of the town, brought out proudly on Fair days for all to see. How we in Sandwich do mix our past with our present!
Reuben N. Hodge is president of the Sandwich Town & Grange Fair Association, succeeding this spring, 1963, William P. Hacker who had a long tenure of office. Guy Leavitt of Ashland is manager of concessions, both here and at Plymouth Fair. Others prominent in Fair work over the years as they come to mind, include Harry Blanchard, Frank Bryer, W. Leroy White, William A. Heard, James S. Rogers, Julius and Isabel Smith, Jesse and Mabel Ambrose, Katherine Bryer White, James H. Beede and his wife Hattie (who, in the dairy department, never failed to have a big wheel of cheese each year, even when no one was making cheese any more!) ; William J. O'Brien, Doris L. Benz, Alice B. Moorhouse, Luther Burrows, Dorothy Weed (who ran "chances" on everything from turkeys to dishes to make money for the "weak" treasury of the 20's) ; Stuart Heard, Bill and Maybelle Forristall, Hope Hacker, the Ingles and Mary Senior Brown. Finally there are the committee workers, nameless here but indispensable, who every year take hold and make Sandwich Fair "go!"
The Sandwich Fair Book, begun in the "teen" years by Mrs. Moor- house and continued since by the Forristalls, is a looked-for feature of Sandwich Fair; a free souvenir program attractive in form and content, which fair-goers carry home for leisure reading and a re-living of the great day.
