EXETER TO LOSE TWO TRAINS A DAY Incidentally) with the opening the new pavement which forms1 ribbon of .cement from London Goderich the L- Huron and Bruce railway which rung from London to Wingham will discontinue two trains a day from this line. This means that Exeter and other places along the line will be served with one train in the morning from London, the same train returning from Wingham to London at night, The new sche dule comes into effect next Monday. The cutting oft of one train will mean much inconvenience and many readjustments. The citizens of Ex eter have been in the custom of re ceiving the evening mail and partic ularly the evening papers from the, city, but the only daily papers tp b© received after the new schedule comes into effect will be the morn ing papers. Passengers by train will not h© able to spend the day in Lon don. At present this is not as great an inconvenience as it will be in the winter when auto traffic will be tied up.
