I received a letter the other
day from the field representative
of the Ontario Safety League
stating he had noted that I had
become chairman of the Exeter
Safety Council. I don’t know how
that came about we haven’t had
enough members out to elect any
one -but I did say I would chair
the meetings if we had enough
to operate properly.
The council is still operating
and has one project that Mrs.
Don. iSouthcott is working on.
That is, licencing bicycles and
testing and teaching the children
on traffic -laws.
Anyone who is interested in
the safety -and well-being of this
commun'ity should get out and
work with other safety-minded
people. If we can get enough
terested, the work isn’t to
heavy for anyone. *

The Legion bantam hockey
team didn’t win its game at
Wingham last Friday night but
ithe boys played a good team, I
am told. They -were up against
the -Ontario Champions of their
group and although they lost '9-3
it was no disgrace.
I have maintained all winter
that we have one ,of the -better
and stronger skating teams in the
league 'but our team didn’t get
enough ice time or practice. They
would have done a lot better
if they -had been coached more
as a team.
