The club have ordered a quan- tity of Christmas nut packages for raising funds and are plan- ping to hold a New Years eve party. Remember some time ,ago when merohents were ,urgine people to, think about chrietmae inJsly? Well, the EXPter and District Swimming l'ePlOPMtratteo have come ,no with a new twist. They want people to think about at Christmas. At least this may be taken as the thought behind their urgent appeal this week asking for donations to complete payment on the peel which was opened this summer. Co-chairman Mel Geiser re- ports the fund has almost reach- ed the target, but there is still appreximately $3,000 remain- ing, which they hope will be cleaned up in the near future. Total subscriptions to date amount to $18,804,90, A govern, ment grant of $5,000 and an equal amount from the Town of Exeter brings the total to $28,- 804.90. Total cost of the pool was $31,620,00.

"At the same time the come nitttOe extends a sincere thaakS to all PerSerist bileilleeSaiene corperatione, ellthe and grPI1PO who have generously supported and contributed to date," he added, And some of the committee members were possibly think- ing of their own Chrietreae when they issued this week's appeal. When they still had $5,000 to raise, five members signed personal notes at the bank in order that construetion of the pool might get underway, The pool of course was fin- ished, but the total funds re- quired never came in. The five therefore still have notes at the bank, and similar to most peo- ple, will undoubtedly have enough bills to pay without hay- ing that extra note to worry about. Their hope is' that area citi- zens will get a touch of the season spirit and come forth with donations. In that way, it will undoubtedly be a very merry Christmas for all, in the same way next July will be a very merry time for area youngsters who will have use of their new swimming pool. Donations may be made by contacting any member of the committee or paying directly to the Bank of Montreal, Exeter. Members of town council this Week predicted "trouble" over their ,decision to permit an enelotion to their zoning hYlaW- and also inChanging a Preaeat storm sewer to a pembinetiog storm and sanitary sewer. Word was received from the OWRC that it would be PeSsible to deeigpate the present sewer on Carling and. Mill Street to a sanitary sewer, but added that roof connections would have to be removed and catch basins eperonted, ee as little as pos- sible storm, water would go into the drain. Councillor Wooden said two residents of Mill Street had informed him that the drain wasn't deep enough to serve their houses as a combination drain. There was also some question if the drain was built properly to do both lobe. Mayor Simmons reported that B. M. Ross, engineer, had re- ported the drain was construct- ed well enough to serve both jobs, It was explained by Clerk C. V. Pickard that a hearing would have to be held if objec- tions were raised over the drain, similar to the procedure followed when instituting sew- ers in any area. A bylaw will be prepared and Councillor Wooden predic- ted there would be objections from residents in the area af- fected. lem would be eradicated when the new catch basin was install- ed with the storm drain, Accidents —Continued from front page was meeting a car driven by Mary Ellen Roberts, W q o d- stock. This car started to skid and the Kingma girl ran into the ditch when she swerved to avoid a crash. Her car was damaged to the extent of $400. Organize bureau for Huron CAS emergency should arise. However, council decided to file the request and Mayor elm- mons explained that just be- cause the federal government wanted to "throw money away", it was no reason why Exeter should. Clerk C, V. Pickard suggest- ed EMO was becoming a thing of the past and Mayor Simmons concluded the discussion by not- ing EMO "was going out fast". The request was filed for next year's council. A Christmas Bureau has again been organized by the Board of Directors of the Chil- dren's Aid Society of Huron County, This was done last year with great success. The objective is to ensure for all needy children in the county a happy Christmas. What is also important is to prevent overlapping by various organi- zations so that no one gets too much while others get very little. Those wishing to give through the CAS should have all dona- tions except perishable food, in to headquarters at Goderich before the end of November as boxes must be packed the first week of December. Money is most acceptable for buying gifts for older children SOME OBJECTIONS Clerk C. V. Pickard told council some objections have already been raised in regard to their decision at the last meeting to permit Don Mc- Gregor to make an addition to his welding shop on William Street. The present building is a non-conforming use in the area. "It left no doubt in my mind he was opposed," Clerk Pickard stated in reference to a tele- phone call he had received from a resident in the area of the building. He said that he had been instructed that a meeting would have to be called of all residents within 300-feet of the building to secure their feelings before the zoning bylaw was amended.

The goggles were necessary because of the method of dis- connection: tapes were strung behind the heat coil s—little fuses that protect subscribers' lines from high voltage—so that fuses could be ripped out by the thousands. U predictions of local offi- cials come true, council may soon have an end to the numer- ous requests for participation in the Emergency Measures Organization by Stuart Forbes, Huron co-ordinator. Forbes has failed in all his recent attempts to get council to organize a local EMO com- mittee, and presented another request this week for them to supply names of local people who could serve on various committees such as health, fire, police, public information, transportation, etc. These people, along with a local co-ordinator, would be available he suggested if an WATER PROBLEM A letter was received from the Exeter Public School board in regard to the water that floods the intersection of Main and Victoria Streets each time there is a heavy rain.

Money, new wearing apparel, socks, mitts, layettes, jewel- lery, toilet articles, stationery, games for older children, flash- lights, billfold s, Christmas seals, ribbon tags, wrapping paper, donations of food, are all gratefully accepted. Only new articles can be used as Christmas gifts but clean used clothing and bedding in good condition are most ac- ceptable for the boxes. Clothing for boys six to 16 years of age and girls ten to 16 is urgently needed. The generosity and co-opera- tion of the Huron County folk are again solicited.

No unruly pupils here GRAND BEND A unique church service was held on Sunday afternoon at Grand Bend in the Mary-Ellen Chapel at Eisenbach's Museum. It was a "church parade" for the Blue Water Shrine Club and included members of the Mocha Shrine. It was led by the Shrine trumpet band from London. This is the first church par- ade to be held by the Blue Water Club, and also the first one- to be held by the Mocha Shrine, Rev. Canon Maurice H. H. Farr, chaplain of the Mocha Temple who delivered the mes- sage, noted that this service could well be a "first" for Shrine Clubs anywhere. The Mary-Ellen Chapel was opened this fall after the main tourist season was over, as a memorial to Mr. peter Eisen- back's wife, mother, and mother-in-law. Canon Farr based his talk on the section of Second Kings which tells of the healing of Naaman of leprosy by amiracle wrought by the prophet Elisha, and compared this to the heal- ing of young children wrought by the Shrine in their support George Ross, recently ap- pointed inspector for the area, was guest speaker at the first meeting of McGillivray Home and School Association. Ross spoke on the new approach to teaching mathematics, stress- ing that there was very little new work being taught, but the presentation was different. He was introduced by Ellison Whiting and thanked by Mrs. Willis Steeper, Also highlighting the first meeting were three speeches given by Misses Norma Rowe, Judy Morgan and Hazel Simp- son. These were prepared for competition in the Trustees and Ratepayers Association Speak- ing Contest. Miss Judy Morgan, speaking cial hour was spent with lunch prepared and served by the grade two mothers, with Mrs, Clark Hodgins as convener. on Confederation, was chosen best speaker, and will repre- sent McGillivray Central School in that competition later in the year. Norma Rowe spoke on Can- ada since Confederation and Hazel Simpson chose the RCMP as her subject. The meeting was in charge of the new executive with Mrs. Harold Mawson presiding. The aims of Home and School were read by Mrs. Les Morley. Mrs. Clark Hodgins read the scrip- ture. A piano selection by Miss Linda Scott was enjoyed by all and the attendance banner was won by Miss EagleSon's (Grade four) room.

Mayor Simmons told council that it was the feeling of PUC members that Exeter could look after its own water supply for the next five years, 'but we may have to start looking after that". Council learned that the May- or felt the community would not have to conduct an im- mediate survey as other areas will ' in determining if water is needed from the pipeline. He said that if council let the OWRC know they may be in- terested at some future date, it would only be necessary to leave a place in the reservoir at Port Blake for a future pump to feed a pipeline to Exeter, It Was estimated very roughly that it may cost between 341 and 34 per 1,000 gallons to bring water to the Exeter bound-, ary from the Lake Heron pipe. line. Exeter's present cost IS about 360 per 1,000 gallons, and this includes the entire cost of producing, building and distributing the Water. "As long as we show some interest, I think that is all that is needed at the present," Mayor Simmons suggested. in the discussion, some mem- bers felt Exeter shotild wait in the hopes that Stratford or Kit- chener may have to take water from Lake Theron, and then it Would Only be a matter of tap- pitg the pipeline going past EXeter. Some amusement entered the diScussion When CoUneilior sack belbridge said it was pos, able it could cost Exeter up to 60 a gallon for water from the pipeline.
