sent the gavel to the new
mayor, Mr. Pooley congratu-
lated the members-elect and
stated that the council would

ers will have to put up with,
he suggested,
Mr. Pooley said that the

ed to the town by the vita, of
Exeter in Devonshire, had. pos-
sibly meant more to him than
any other mayor since he had

the gavel was an incentive for
him to do what he could for
the town.
In accepting the gavel, Mayor
Simmons stated that he hoped

in the past sevan years. "I
had to use it only twice," re-
plied Mr. Pooley.

devotions. Mr. Lewis stated

preciated the services rendered

For the scripture reading he
referred to the second chapter
