rj ’ALKlNG point in Clit'nc- roc ill is week-end is


obviously tlic Castle Fete and all the events associated with it.


It seems strange to think


that a broadcast about the tow.’ ami its activities should not ieaUire events which form such a strong part of Clithe- roe's character. This week-end. if the


weather is favourable, thou­ sands of people will invade the town and next week-end the town should again be absolutely packed with visit­ ors. livery credit is due to the


many olliciais concerned for their voluntary work. If they had to he paid for their services the bill would be heavy. What a grand thing it is that there are still people willing to devote all their I spare time in the interests of


the town. U is to be hoped, of course,


that their elTorts are appreci­ ated. Unfortunately s ome


people are always willing to knock if they find something wrong, but not always willing I to give credit when they find I something right.


This is one of the occasions I


when the town’s worthy citi­ zens have every right to feel | proud of their elTorts.
