year for the board.
Pollee are asking housewives
to co-operate with them to pre-
vent illegal peddlers operating in
town.
Chief Reg Taylor requests wo-
men to call the police office as
soon as possible when a peddler
without a licence calls at their
door,
"We've had a number of com-
plaints about these house-to-house
salesmen but they always come
too late," the chief said. "We
can't do much after the man has
left town."
"Housewives should ask the
salesman to show his licence. If
he hasn't one, she should call us
as soon as she can and we'll check
up on him."
A town by-law requires door-
to-door salesmen to pay a $50
licence fee to operate in town.
The legislation was passed seve-
ral years ago when council felt it
was unfair that merchants should
be required to pay business taxes
to the town while peddlers paid
nothing; A similar by-law exists
in many other towns.
Chief Taylor said recently a
fish salesman who .regularly pays
the town $50 for his licence lost
considerable business when an un -
licenced peddler sold fish around
town the day before. "It's un-
fair that this fellow should con-
tribute towards the town for a

Dump RowContin.ues,
CompIair. AbrQut smell
Controversy -over the condition
of Exeter dump continues,
A pet1tiipn from 2.5 ratepayers
at the nprth end, presented to
council Monday night, demanded
the dump be bulldozed and the
garbage covered, The petition
said the odor waa intolerable and
a danger to health,
Councillor Ross Taylor, In
charge of the dump, said he vis-
ited the. area Wednesday and
there was no, smell from the gar-
bage. The odor comes from the
canning factory pea refuse in
the river.
The dump has been bulldozed
three times this year to cover
the garbage and prevent fires.
Councillor Taylor said he was in
favor of doing it again if the
dump needed it and if the coun-
cil had enough Money.
Clerk C. V. Pickard said the
•
odor from the dwmp,,couldn't be
too bad. He noticed, on Monday
a group of people eating .their
lunch under the tree in the mid=.
ole of the area.
The complaint ware lett in the.
hands of the dump committee.
Council h'as received numerous
complaints from George Shaw,
who lives on Highway 83 near
the dump. He .objects to the' od-
ors and fires. In an- attempt to
alleviate this condition, council
declared the '.dump out of bounds
to ratepayers, locked the gates,
prohibited fires and cleaned up
the area.
Last month the Ontario De-
partment of Health informed
council it had received complaints
from George Shaw .on the dump
and made Several recommenda-
tions for improvement,
Poison Ivy Is No Joke
"Let Leaflets Three Be"
Poison ivy infection is no joke!
Some people -are extremely sick
with it. The rash may spread to
cover the body, affected parts are
often swollen .and large blisters
form. People have been hospital-
ized so great is the discomfort
from the infection.
Cause Of Infection
Any part of the poison. , ivy
plant whether leaf, stem, berry
or root .gives forth: an oil waren
crushed or • broken.. Coming 'in
contact with this oil may cause
an infection or by touching shoes,.
rugs or even a dog which has
been in contactwith poison, ivy.
The smoke from burning brush
containing poison ivy can also
cause infection.
Handling soil that has been
brought to the home orcottage
to use for house plants, particul-
arly African violets has caused
infection -some of the rats of
the plant may be brought into
garden when you trans-
plant'
own g w
p1•ant' ferns or evergreens. The
danger of infection is greatest
when working -near poison ivy
and the body becomes hot and
damp with perspiration and when
the weather is "murky" and hu-
mid.
The first sign of infection,is a
reddening of the skin and its
itchy feeling. In a day or two,
small water blisters will
appear
which- gradually swell and break.
The ligti}id discharged from these
sores may transmit the poisoning
to other parts of the body or to,
another 'person unless great care
is taken.
Know Polso'Ivy
Everyone should be taught to
recognize and avoid poison ivy.
and also the less common poison
sumac or poison oak with the
bright scarlet berries in the
autumn, Poison ivy may climb as
a vine on trees and fences or
stand erect in the fields or woods.
It grows in any kind of soil, in
shade or in sunshine. The leaves
are in groups of three, mostly
ovate and pointed. The green is
bright on the upper surface with
a waxy appearance and pale and
hairy .underneath. White berries
are born in the nodes of the stem
and remain on the plant all
winter.. In autumn it changes to a
rich red color. It is sometimes
confused with the Virginia creep-
er; .but the creeper has five leaves
in a cluster. .
If you Have set your picnic
basket down in poison ivy -or
realize that you have come in con-
-taot with it,wash the parts con-
tacted in running water or, . if
available, crub with a thick
,
lather of strong laundry soap. If
Infection is in evidence, cover the
infectedpartswith a thick lather
of coarse laundry soap and allow
"ko• dry, Calamine lotion procured
from your. doctor or druggist is
effective as are other remediep
your doctor may prescribe.
An old Indian cure, as told by
a local bush worker, is to chew
Somepoison ivy "Be-
ware"
the lean roots. is the advice regarding this
cure -it may be a cure for the
Indian who is close to nature and
who is wise enough to take it in,
very small doses until he is im-
mune, but to the uninitiated it
can be disastrous. Remember the
old adage, "Leaflets three, let it
she."'
