ENGAGli IM.ENT The Exeter Cemetery Board have decided to erect a chapel at the cemetery. The chapel’ will be used for conducting funeral services in inclement weather and will do away with funerals in the open during the winter season when the mourners are subject to the cold weather in the open. Exeter has a cemetery of which •this community is justly proud ns it is one of the most beautiful burial grounds ouside of the larger centres. The new structure will fill a long-felt want as many a person has suffered a severe illness while attending a burial service during inclement weather and particularly during the cold days of winter. The new structure will be 22 by 30 ft. with itwo floors the main, floor of which, will be used as a chapel from where the bodies will be lowered into the crypt below which will have a stor­ age capacity of from forty to fifty caskets. These in turn will be transferred to their proper graves in the spring.- In addition to the pro­ tection given to those attending the funeral it will also do- away with the necessity of digging an open grave in the winter time when the ground is frozen and this mjsan a considerable saving. -/'’The Cemetery Board have given considerable attention ting the cemetery on a uniform and business-like basis. A complete plan of the cemetery has been ar­ ranged. The new part is being laid out in’ a uniform way and only trees or shrubs as approved by the board may be planted. The new land has been so laid out that any sized, plot may be secured. One section has been set aside for single graves, an­ other for double graves but the ma­ jority of the plots are for four graves each. _ . . about $20,000 in perpetual care, proceeds, of which are being; used for the upkeep and improvement of the cemetery.

The indoor exhibit in the Crystal Palace was never better. The showing in all lines was exceptionally good. Fruits and vegetables were a little light but the quality was up to he usual standard in spite of the dry weather, There were a number of new exhib­ itors in the ladies department and nearly all classes were well filled. The merchants of Exeter deserve special mention fur the splendid showing they made, and particularly the Canadian Canners who had a splendid booth for their products. Every available space was taken up. The exhibit of live stock was par­ ticularly fine and there was a keen competition in many of the classes. Some of the sheep ‘that were shown at Exeter were shown at Toronto and London. The special attractions delighted the crowds" and everyone seemed well pleased with the success of the day. The Sarnia London Life Girls softball team defeated Seaforth 13 to 5 in a fast and interesting game. The Brunswick Trio of London, gave a splendid entertainment in front of the grandstand. The Dashwood Band furnished lively music. There were two races 2.18 and 2.22 pace or trot, A chariot! race in which two teams of horses driven by McNair and Ken­ nedy, of Ilderton, in chariots, was real thrilling, and was won by the former 2,1,1,.
