That's longer than some mowers last. But, because Lawn-Boy is built with such special care, you'll probably never even need it. Lawn-Boy makes all parts to fit each other. (Unlike some manufacturers who buy odd engines and attach them to blades and hous- ings), This means that every piece fits and works perfectly with the piece next to it. Lawn-Boy takes extra care with every part they build. Each motor is run in and thor- oughly tested before it leaves the factory, Because of special care like this, it's not sur- prising that many Lawn-Boys last eight or nine years without a single complaint.

A picnic lunch was served in her honor by her daughter, Mrs. Wm Dickey, RR 1 Lucan with whom she resides. to a lively chamber of commerce. "In effect each board of trade is a public relations officer for the community with the purpose to sell it to the outside world". He said another important role for the organization was to be an advisory board to the local gov- ernment and on occasions to oth- er government organizations out- side of the community. Initiation of tourism, business improve- ment and industrial development were also within the scope of the board. "You have to create an identity for the community. Do you want to be known for stability, ef- ficiency, beauty or growth. This all ties in with the informative role the Board of Trade has to play." He said local festivals helped to create interest for the com- munity and the Board of Trade could help to implement them. "Do not be afraid to start small as these things tend to snowball", Mr. Urquhart advised. Elmira and its Maple Syrup festival was an example. Within two years it has roused widespread interest not only in the province but in the U.S. as well. Special trains were organized there to visit Elmira on this event. Another Exeter may have a full scale Rodeo by 1967 to put the town on the map as a tourist attraction.

It drew 150 members and guests to its first annual dinner meeting Wednesday night, June 15. Guest speaker for the even- ing was William G. Urquhart, manager of Midwestern Ontario Development Association, w ho urged the co-operation of the whole town for community better- ment. "Board of trade is an organiza- tion which unites town merchants, industrialists and professional men in an effort to make their community better", he said. "It is easy to get people to join. It is not so easy to get them to do some work. Without a high de- gree of enthusiasm you won't get your community off the ground". He said every live community in this country could be traced celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.

"Don't be selfish when other civic organizations want to take on or to continue a project", the speaker pointed out. "If others are interested in it, this means you've got something good". He said it was necessary to be on a constant lookout for new ideas and ever changing projects to sustain public interest. "And this is your job, to con- stantly keep Exeter in the lime- light", he said. Mr. Urquhart said there was a similarity between the Midwest- ern Development Association and the local boards of trade. The as- sociation was engaged in selling the whole region. The boards of trade did the same on a commun- ity level. If they were successful the work of the MODA was that much easier. "It is much easier to sell progressive communi- ties", he said.

Carfrey Cann enthusiastically supported the idea and thought that Exeter would have a real good opportunity in establishing itself as a rodeo town in Ontario. The Hon. Charles McNaughton, Minister of Highways and Mayor Jack Delbridge were among the head table guests. 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Top Quality CARS '62 GMC PICK-UP 8 ft. box, radio, excellent condition.
