A. MacDowell Ltd.; H. L. — Continued from page 5 suggested that work was not done in the past because of councils who wished to hold the mill rate. "Hensall roads make ours look sick and it's a smaller town", he said. Other councillors agreed there was no way to cut the budget. Deputy Reeve, Philip Gandon pointed out that the library bud- get had been cut by $2,000 and felt that all other items should stand. Mayor Jack Delbridge sup- ported this stand and argued that the work listed in the budget needs doing this year. C. V. Barrett, another mem- ber of the finance committee told councillors that the com- mittee had reviewed all items in the budget in detail and could find no other ways of cutting costs other than what was in- cluded in the report as present- ed.

Councillor Mery Cudmore pointed out that council held the mill rate down last year by de- laying projects. There was no sidewalk construction carried out he said. When the extra half mill for contingencies was proposed councillor Taylor objected. "I'm convinced we should keep the rate at the lowest possible point and live up to the budget as it is set. Other councillors dis- agreed and pointed out that $1,- 600 is a very small margin to work with on a budget of $320,- 000. Councillor Taylor conceded and agreed that if council felt it is necessary he would vote for it. The motion passed unanimous- ly. One of the highlights of Expo exhibits will be a human cell magnified a million times. — Continued from page 5 he commented. He gave two ex- amples in the way costs are ris- ing. A post office in the area Used to be painted for $450 and now costs $1,400. The Ontario Centennial project was estimated at $14,000,000 and the tender price was $21,000,000, In answer to a query by board chairman Ken Johns, Mr. Boyce suggested the cost figure might be lowered by $100,000 by leav- ing things out before it would really start to tear the project apart. He added, that it is un- fortunate that the board does not save 100 percent of what it takes off, Because there is a 75 per- cent subsidy the board only saves $25,000 on every $100,000 taken from the project. Mr. Johns commented, "I don't think there are any frills — we have been very careful to stay within limits". John Boyne called on members to face the fact they will have to cut the project somewhere. He said they might have to do with- out the running track, "and pos- sibly a lot of other things". MacLaren of Grand Bend sug- gested the board will have to cut the cost back to the original figure. Garnet Hicks described the price as "entirely out of our category financially. In nine months time things might look a little differently" he said. Mr. Boyce suggested it would take about six weeks to get ap- proval from Ottawa and said if the project were started in June of 1966 it would likely be com- pleted by September of 1967. Mr. Boyne suggested the cost is "almost absurd", He said he couldn't see going ahead with the project at a cost of over $1,800,000. "Over this I con- sider the price unrealistic", he added. Mr. Boyce told members that if the top section of the project were deleted the saving would be about $500,000 but of this the Board would only save $100,- 000. He added that he didn't think you could take 20 percent off any project without ruining it. He suggested it would be better for the board to delete one portion of the project rather than try to tear it apart. Mr. Boyce suggested it might be possible to have the mechani- cal and electrical portions of the contract rebid but said he doubt- ed whether they would get a better price from a general con- tractor. Garnet Hicks suggested the board should hold any decision until other members of the board are present. There were eight of the 14 members on hand for the opening of tenders. He suggested that the area high school inspect- or be present at the meeting as, 1965 MODEL 1965 MODEL 1965 MODEL 1966 MODEL 1966 MODEL 1966 MODEL — 3 PLANTERS — 1 PLANTER — 1 PLANTER — I PLANTER "'we were sold on these plans by the powers that be, We should get the full opinion of the board", he said. The regular meeting of the board was advanced one week until April 5 to discuss alterna- tive plans. Teen parade has many entries There will be fun and excite- ment Saturday afternoon as the Exeter Teen Town parade prom- ises to have many attractions. Monday evening Mayor Jack Del bridge agreed to ride in the par- ade wearing his chain of office. This will be the first public appearance for the mayor wear- ing his official regalia although he did wear it one night at coun- cil. Another first this year will be the "At Home" queen from the South Huron District High School riding in a convertible. Decorated cars and floats a n d the Legion Pipe Band will add much to the display of color. Following the parade the an- nual penny carnival promises to be fun for the rest of the afternoon. In the evening the Exeter Teen Town is holding its annual par- ents' night. Parents of the teen- agers will have a chance to mingle" with the group and see first hand how the dances are run. Exeter council has also been invited to ttend this function. The parade is supported by the Exeter Board of Trade and all proceeds from the day will be donated to the Bunny Bundle. Should advertise merchant told Businessmen should advertise to build up their store and not for the purpose of getting rid of their merchandise at loss, mem- bers of the Frozen Foods As- sociation were told during a five day seminar in North Carolina. Morley Hall, owner of the Ex- eter Frozen Foods, who partici- pated in the seminar, sponsored -by the North Carolina Frozen Foods Association in co-opera- tion with the N. Carolina Univer- sity said four university pro- fessors lectured on business eth- ics work simplification, pro- ductivity and advertising. He said that during the discus- sions of the various advertising media, the home town newspaper was pointed out as one of the more advantageous in small townbusi- ness. Advertising should be planned towards making profit for the business and to create an image so that the public would accept the business. Back from the seminar Morley said he had learned quite a bit that will help him in expanding his business throughout the dist- rict.

Police indicate the driver of the other vehicle may have been un- aware of the damage, Exeter council will endeavor to find a sub-co-ordinator for the Emergency Measures Organiza• tion it was decided Monday even- ing, Huron County EMO co-or- dinator Stu Forbes addressed council asking for help in getting the program set up in Exeter and area. He pointed out that at one time there was a very good organization here but it "fell apart for some reason". Mr. Forbes answered several questions in regards to the EMO asked by councillors. He told them that in the case of a local emergency the Mayor would be the man who would give the ord- ers, He also said the EMO is attempting to set up plans as to what should be done in specific types of emergencies. He told council that people are getting their money out of EMO. Last year the county only spent $1,200 and yet nearly $5,000 was MOCHA will move from Stratford The offices of Midwestern On- tario Development Association will be moved from Stratford, manager W. C.

Asked as to where Exeter fits into the overall plan he stated that the county was originally classed as a reception center but pointed out the difficulties which would be involved in moving a great number of people. All the counties are tied into Toronto he said but added the mechanics of the plan is with the working man right here in this county. In a case of emergency he sug- gested there would be enough food in local stores to last for 31 days, He went further and sug- gested there would be enough food in most houses to last three weeks if necessary.
