Approved the purchase of a calculator for the clerk's office to aid in speedier and easier calculations of tax statements. ell doesn't see the proposed sys- tem as helping the Hensall situa- tion. "There are places where it will work, but I don't see it here", stated Baker. According to Jack Lavender, the village at present has a gentlemen's agreement with Zur- ich and Exeter, to help each other if the need arises, at no extra cost. Clerk Earl Campbell was in- structed to write to the councils of Exeter and Zurich to deter- mine if the mutual agreement now in effect would stand now that mu- tual aid has come into being on a county basis. Reeve Minnie Noakes stated that Hensell was fortunate to have a good fire department and that Chief Dave Sangster and his volunteer brigade were loyal to the village of Hensall and the surrounding townships and vil- lages. A question of whether Hensall firemen were paid when called to other municipalities was cleared with the answer that they were. Useless and that three prisoner bunks in the pOlice station are badly broken up. Instructed the clerk to get prices from area welders on the construction of three steel frames for bunks and left in the hands of the beach committee, the matter of obtaining suitable lifeguard stands. Are still looking for a building and sanitary inspector. All coun- cillors were appointed to contact by September 19 anyone they thought would be capable and willing to fill this position. Health committee member John Manore was instructed to call the Ontario Water Resources Commission, Wednesday morn- ing, demanding that a report of the water samplings taken in the Lake Road area be made avail- able immediately. John Teevins, a resident of the area in ques- tion has had his water condemned because of contamination and wants something done about it. Teevins has been able to get no- where in negotiations with OWRC. Tests were taken some time ago and results have not been re- ceived, Council agreed to meet with OWRC and all land owners in the affected area. Qontinued from front page beach with the three Chamber Members to have a close look at the situation and come up with more concrete ideas. In other business council: Received a reply from CFB Centralia in reply to a request that the village be given an op- portunity to purchase some fire equipment from the closed sta- tion, The commanding officer replied that all fire fighting fa- cilities will be retained as long as the PMQ area and any part of the unit itself is still inopera- tion. Were informed that official registration of the name "81 Crescent" for the little road running by the new post office has been completed, Letter from the village of Zur- ich that meetings are to be held by local councils and fire chiefs to designate area and establish rates for fire protection in Hay Township. Learned that Fire Marshall representatives in Sarnia were Willing to meet with Council re- garding procedures of fire pro- tection in other areas. Heard that the remaining two lifeguard stands on the beach are Balk at library Some difficult situations Contestants at the rodeo at the Exeter Saddle Club grounds over the weekend found themselves in many difficult situations, due to the mud and the ornery critters they were attempting to tame. Pictured above, is one cowboy attempting to wrestle a large steer to the ground. Fellow cohorts on horse back and in the chutes holler encouragement. Below, a cowboy and a steer fight it out in a large muddy section of the grounds, much to the enjoyment of the crowd nearby. Incidentally, the cowboy finally managed to subdue the steer and even came up wearing a smile through his mud splattered glasses. T-A photos Native woman dies at Exeter Mrs. George M. Lownds, 89, Exeter, the former Verde Lor- etta Leavitt RN died at the Ex- eter Nursing Home Sunday, Sep- tember 4. Mrs. Lownds was born in Gran- ton and trained as a nurse at St. Joseph's School of Nursing, Lon- don. She was the first school nurse in Windsor and also nursed in this community. She was married to George Lownds and lived in Detroit for two years where her husband died suddenly. About 20 years ago she came back to Exeter to make her home with her sister, Mrs. J. G. (pearl) Cochrane. Funeral services were con- ducted by Rev. J. P. Gandon on Wednesday, September 7 at the R. C. Dinney funeral home, Main St. Exeter with interment in Ex- eter cemetery. Pallbearers were Messrs Wil- liam Sillery, William Chambers, Jack Doerr, Harry Strang, Nor- man Stanlake and Reg Beavers. — Continued from front page "This is wrong," he stated, adding that it's a proven fact that the costs of administration go higher when the governments take things under their control. He was also disturbed to learn that under the system, any Huron resident would have free access to any books in any library. Delbridge flatly stated that the recent gift of 250 books from CFB Centralia "are not going out of town as far as I'm concerned". Wooden agreed that in the long run the move would cost more money, and while he said he was in favour of regionalism in most things, he wasn't in favour of it as far as the library was concern- ed. It was finally decided that coun- cil would invite members of the local board to report on the matter before a decision was made. Clerk Eric Carscadden was also instructed to write a Members of Hensel). council, Meeting in regular session, Fri- day night informed the village's library board that they were in favour of the proposed new Huron County library system. The County of Huron has ask- ed local councils and library boards to get together to get their feelings on the new pro- gram, Robert Raeburn, chairman of the Hensall library board, re- quested direction from council before his committee meets this week. Under the new system, grants from the governments would be more than doubled. Cost will be covered by the County tax rate. At present the village of Hensall levies one mill for library pur- poses. Councillor Harold Knight, while admitting some local con- trol would be lost, thought it was a good idea. He suggested that "Hensall students attending SH- AHS could pick up a book at the Exeter library, take it home for reference use for a couple of nights and return it quite con- veniently to the library at noon- hour. All members of Council agreed that at present the village has an adequate library, with a good board and a fine librarian. If the new plan goes into effect in the County, a. resident of Huron can visit any library in the County and pick up the books of his choice at no extra cost. Raeburn commented that the Hensall library would still be in the hands of the local board with somewhat limited powers. He said that he found the local li- brary as being a little short of reference books and personally felt that the new plan would correct some of these s m all problems that arise locally. community in Essex (where the plan is being used already) to find their viewpoint on the situa- tion.

Former resident to preach here A member of a well-known Exeter family will be back in town this Sunday to preach at the 78th anniversary service of Trivitt Memorial Anglican Church, The Rev. W. Borden Cunning- ham, at present Rector of the Church of the Ascension, Wind- sor, spent his early years in Exeter, and was confirmed in Trivitt Memorial at the age of 17. His father, Walter Cunning- ham, was one of the most active laymen in the congregation's his- tory. He first became Church Warden in 1921, and held some office in the church every year for the next thirty years. By a strange coincidence, the present Rector of Trivitt, on coming to Canada eight years ago, spent his first year in this country as Assistant Curate to Mr. Cun- ningham at the Church of the Ascension, Windsor. The Anniversary Service this Sunday will provide opportunity for the renewal of many friend- ships. OTHER BUSINESS Council was informed that the smoke ejector, ordered on ap- proval at the last meeting to be used by the fire department, had not arrived. Approval was given to Cook's Mill to cover an area of about 70 feet by 30 feet, partially on their property with gravel. The area extends from Cook's office to the street and proper grading will be done to a catch basin. Part of this area is over the present sidewalk, that is sunken somewhat, and it was felt any sidewalk put in would have to be reinforced to hold the weight of heavy trucks, hence the gravel. Blacktopping will be done by the milling company in the near fu- ture. Approved a request from Bell Telephone to install buried cable at the corner of King St. and No. 4 highway with the work com- mencing in four weeks.

Robbins also complained that his yard was full of corn husks that have blown off uncovered trucks carting loads from Ca- nadian Canners Ltd. He stated he had recently com- pleted a 10,000 mile trip and found that Exeter's Main Street was the dirtiest he had seen. Members of council pointed out the problem is natural in an agricultural community and one that residents would have to put up with. "It's still better than the smog and smoke in the cities," Coun- cillor Ted Wright retorted. He also stated that the OPP had been watching the situation and had not complained to any of the truckers to date. In other business, council: Approved a request from the South Huron Hospital Auxiliary to conduct a tag day on September 24.
