They maintain the up­ stairs rooms have improper ven­ tilation and lighting, the toilet facilities were not adequate, men­ tal patients were allowed to min­ gle with other patients, the staff is insufficient, a former mental patient has keys to the men’s ward and that stench in men’s ward is unbearable Town Topics Items of Social and Personal Interest In and Around Exeter The Exeter Times-Advocate is always pleased to publish these items.
