BEER, Exeter COMMUNICATION THE GAME PRESERVE Wednesday, March 14, 1928 To the Editor of the Times-Advocate Deax* Sir:—« About two years ago the land’ owners of a section of land west of Exeter were asked to sign an agree­ ment to send to the government ask­ ing that this land be converted into a game preserve. This rather ap­ pealed to the people as it would al­ low valuable iganxe animals to in­ crease in number and make a pro­ fitable wintex' employment fox' those out of woi’k. This winter tlxe game committee held a meeting (but fail­ ed to inform any of the members or landowners) and asked “the govern­ ment to allow a certain man the privilege of hunting on the preserve, The permit* was issued arid, now in­ stead of a game preserve we have a private hunting ground for a rich farmer. Is that what the .landowners want? They cannot hunt on their own land, do they want another to do it for them? Certainly not! Now the valuable game animal such as nxink are called “vermin.” The meeting at which this busi­ ness was transacted was called with­ out informing the members ox* land­ owners; Why can’t the committee put a notice in the Exeter paper when the meetings are to be held. Why are the xxxembers not informed before such aix important matter is taken up? And when was the elec­ tion of officers foi’ 1928? Surely the president, vice-president and se­ cretary didn’t elect themselves to of­ fice again without any of the other members being present. Again, an add in the paper might have inform­ ed the members. Why should the game preserve be a preserve for pheasants only when it is igenerally known that they would starve to death were they to dare to try to live on it. Besides, when they are protected by la.w any­ way what would be the “need? Mr. Colwell, the Deputy-game Warden, from London was heard to say that the preserve was no good for pheas­ ant as the grass was too short. Will the landowners on the game preserve who are opposed to having their land made a private hunting ground for a'favored farmer as well as such members of tlfe game com­ mittee who are interested, please communicate with Silas Staxxlake that a petition to the government xnay be arranged to either throw the preserve open to the public or re­ voke the permit that makes it no longer a preserve at all. Thanking the Times-Advocate for the space in theix* valuable papex- we remain. Soxne of the landowriers Claytoxx Prouty- Silas Stanlake John Carrick McLAUGHLIN-BUICK leader­ ship remains undisputed because McLaughlin-Buick value and perform­ ance still set the standards by which other cars are judged. PRIZE WINNING ESSAYS The following essays have been awarded first and second prize in tlxe Horticultural Society., essay com­ petition. The judges were S. J. Ho­ garth and B. W. F. Beavers and they based their awards oxx matter, liter­ ary, style and neatness. What the Horticultural Society has Done for Exeter The Horticulural Society is form­ ed of men and women interested in making the town -beautiful with flowers and has done a great deal for the Village of Exeter. They have interested the citizens .in keeping their houses, lawns and gardens in place. The Horticultural Society have put up signs welcoming' you to our village of Exeter when coming in and saying good-bye when you are going out of it. They have made the ground look very nice up at the library by hav­ ing tulip beds, trees and shrubs planted. They have also planted trees and shrubs and are keeping everything in order beside the Bank of Com­ merce. The" Horticultural Society have made a lovely park up at the Aux Sable River by planting, shrubs, trees and flowers. They have made tulip beds around the tank, behind the Town Hall. They have done a< great deal for our village of Exeter and hope that they will keep on doing so. Miss Hazel Clark, age 12 Miss Horton’s Room iTTie Leader To be as good as McLaughlin-Buick a car would need to have: Six Cylinder Valve-in-liead Engine; Chassis Completely Sealed; Engine Sealed Against Water and Dirt; Oil Filter, Air Cleaner, Ga» Strainer; Torque Tube Drive; Multiple Disc Clutch; Rubber Engine Mountings; Counterbalanced Crankshaft; Torsion Bal­ ancer; Thermostatic Water Control; Carburetor Heat Control; Lovejoy Shock Absorbers; Fisher Bodies; and a record of billions of miles of satisfying perform­ ance in the hands of OVet two million owners and drivers. £he G.M.A.C. Deferred Payment Plan offers many advantages to buyers of bfcLaughlin-Buick cars. I♦ • t Wfeen Better Autotnobi(c» are Bniit—McLaugiifin-Burck Will Build The;* What the Horticultural Society has Done for Exeter This is a society of men and wo- menxnen who try to make the homes streets, parks axid the whole town beautiful with flowers, trees and shrubs. Of late years nxariy have become interested in this great work and have encouraged others ito join the society and get some of the many premiums given each year to the members, who use these flowers to beautify'their homes. The pretty park next to tlxe Bank of Commerce was only a large hol­ lowed out place, where nothing grew, until the Horticultural Society got to work, filled it in, grew shrubs and trees there, making it the beau­ tiful place it now is. They have planted. ovex' One thou­ sand trees up along the Aux Sable Rivei’ and soon many will want to visit it from other towns to see how beautiful it is. A pairk lias been planted up there but nothing very much has been done there yet. Fomerly homes have been with­ out flowers and those that had them had only a very few. The Horticul­ tural (Society went arojund, showed people the lovely premiums and maily became interested and wanted to join. Now, most of the people of Exeter belong to this Society and those who don’t belong, .we hope soon shall. Yotx should see the lovely gardens now. Not only front gardens but back ones also lxave shrubs and flowers, wlxich makes them very at- Where the library is many lovely flowers have been planted and a sigxx has heexx put up. More than .anything else they lxave interested the people iix wanting to make and to keep the town beauti­ ful and clean, We certainly hope they shall continue to keep up their good work axxd so make Exetei' one of the most beautiful towns in Ex­eter.
