McDOWELL Ltd. Page 14 Times-Advocate, January 5, 1967 Religion and politics do mix cleric says III Health ? Council to reopen town toilets Set yeur doctor first, Bring your prescription to MIDDLETON'S DRUGS A. local minister told members of Exeter council. Tuesday, that the opinions that all will be well If they approach their business with a prayerful Christian pre- paration, were high-sounding words of idealism and theory, The cleric who made those remarks was the Rev. Phil Gand- on and he knew whereof he spoke, having completed a two-yea r term on council. "You don't have to sit around this table very long to know that prayer and aChristian spirit just don't make everything plain," he admitted. He said they certainly help, but answers can only be arrived at after "an awful lot of down- to-earth hard work, thinking, talking and even arguing." The Anglican minister, who will be leaving next month to assume a pastorate in Windsor, explained he was firmly convinc- ed that religion and politics do mix. He assured the members that the work they do on council is God's work, and that He is vitally interested in every issue that comes before them. Rev. Camden noted that Jesus was very interested in everyday affairs. He was concerned about employment practices and rates of pay, and one's duty to pay taxes. He said that Jesus suggested that one of the prime duties of man was to love his neighbor and this should include being concerned enough about his health and welfare to ensure that he has the best possible sewer sys- tem; that the best educational facilities are provided for his children; that adequate recrea- tional and welfare programs are administered; that his person and Cars & Trucks FOR SALE Following a letter of complaint from an Usborne Township resid- ent, Exeter council voted Tues- day to reopen the public wash- rooms at the town hall. The facilities had been closed due to the fact vandals were making operation and upkeep of the rooms extremely expensive. The letter read to council had been addressed to Mayor Jack Delbridge and he wasn't entirely certain as to the identity of the author as it had been signed by "R.W.H." of RR 1 Gra.nton. The writer said the facilities were much appreciated by farm- ers, who didn't like to use the facilities at local places of busi- ness when they were dressed in clothes used around the barn. He suggested that the wash- '62 CHEVROLET Pick-up, long box, radio, excellent con- dition. Lie, C50091 '62 CHEVROLET Bel Air Sedan, V8 automatic, radio, one own- er. Lic.

"In other words, all the various departments of government have a part to play in fulfilling Christ's command to love your neighbor," Rev. Gandon stated, In concluding his address, the former Deputy-Reeve said that council members should remem- ber to keep their sense of humor, even though it may sometimes appear to get them bad publicity when there are exchanges of hu- mor at council Meetings. "Don't drop the humor", be urged. "God wants us to do His will, but I've never seen a case made for saying that He wants us to do it with long faces." FEW CHANGES Few changes were made in the committee structure of council. Ted Wright continues to head the protection to persons and prop- erty committee. Joe Wooden chairs drains, Ross Taylor has charge of roads and Don Mac- Gregor again looks after side- walks and trees. Mery Cudmore and Derry Boyle act as the property committee. Vriese takes over the chair- manship of the sanitation com- mittee and Boyle is the new wel- fare committee chairman. Jim Newby will replace Mayor Delbridge as one of council's appointments to RAP. Reeve Boyle is the other. Cudmore and Boyle will sit on the Exeter Industrial Develop- ments Commission; Vriese will represent the council on the Mid Western 0 n tar io Development Association and the appointments to the Lake Erie Association are Wooden and Taylor. Cudmore and Vriese will be on the cemetery board. Apply BRODERICK BROS. 235-1330 rooms should perhaps be better lighted to cut down on vandalism and even questioned if a more central spot wouldn't be more advantageous. Members of council appeared to agree with the thought that the washrooms should be open- ed, and two or three indicated they had also received complaints over the fact they had closed them. Councillor Joe Wooden recom- mended that council should con- sider opening the facilites from 8:00 a.m, until 6;00 p.m. and this was approved for a one- month trial period. During the debate on vandal- ism at the washrooms, it was reported that little damage was done during the summer months of July and August and that the ladies' facilities were the ones in which the most damage was taking place. In other business, council: Approved a suggestion that they take over, maintenance of the portion of Riverview Drive lead- ing to the Exeter Curling Club. Supported a recommendation of the Library board that the insurance on the building be in- creased $10,000 to $65,000 and that an additional $5,000 be plac- ed on the contents. Decided not to make appoint- ments to various groups until next meeting, due to the fact they have not found candidates for vacancies on a couple of boards. Pick trustees for schools Provide entertainment for crowd Most of those attending Monday's centennial celebration heard for the first time the Washington Squares, a young folk singing group made up of SHDHS students. The four obviously amazed the crowd with their ability and showacl why they are quickly becoming popular in the district.

There will be no new faces on the Exeter Precious Blood board. Stephan Orenczuk, Glen Robinson and Peter Berendsen were re- turned for two-year terms. Ben Dietrich, James Glaab and Ted Van Roestel are entering the second year of their term on the six-man board. Delegates to the annual St. Boniface board meeting in Zurich elected one new board member and returned two for a second two-year term. Lloyd Denomme is the n e w member, replacing Leo Hoffman.

Centralia ant function and we're not fully cognizant of the importance of sitting on council," he stated. Wooden said municipalities were finding it difficult to handle all the jobs required because they just didn't have access to enough tax money. He said municipalities would have to find additional funds with no strings attached, noting that much of the money they now re- ceive in the form of grants did have strings attached. The SHDHS Vice-P r inc ipal said he questioned if property tax was an equitable way to have people pay for services. He said people struggle to buy property and ownership of it does not necessarily indicate that people have the ability to pay increas- ingly high taxes. Continued from front page It was announced earlier that two other industrial concerns were definitely interested in the facilities. The report that the govern- ment was asking for an option was made by the Hon. W. A. Stewart, minister of agriculture and food. He was reported as saying that the Ontario govern- ment still has a "very current" interest in the base. An option, he said, would al- low the provincial government to explore possibilities for the base's use. "Over a period of months, we would see what we could do." It was the fact that Mr. Stew- art indicated it would take months to determine the use of the base that brought concern from Mr. Raymond. In such a time lapse, those parties presently interested in part of the facilities could make other arrangements. Town accidents — Continued from front page phiel Coeck. Eves was proceed- ing out the laneway at Dinney Funeral Home and the southbound Coeck thought he was going to pull in front of him. Coeck applied his brakes and his car then slid into the Eves vehicle. The final crash involved a parked car owned by Thomas Yellow, Exeter. The vehicle was parked on John St. East when struck by an unknown vehicle. Damage was listed at $95. He reported that recent stud- ies on early Exeter papers re- vealed that dogs were creating problems back in 1880 and that in 1896 the editor of one of the two local papers reported that "roads in and around Exeter are not good — and that's not good for Exeter". Ross Taylor, who again chairs the roads committee, indicated he had not changed his opinion that most of the budget next year should be used on permanently paving a few blocks rather than "wasting" money on attempting to temporarily repair the gen- erally poor streets. He suggested Victoria St. would be one that should be paved after the sewers have been installed. Taylor noted in his report that the grader had broken down and had caused problems in plow- ing snow, but that the machine would be back at work this week. Another of his suggestions was that reservations be made im- mediately for rooms for the Good Roads Convention. Council ap- proved the reservation of four rooms, despite Reeve Boyle's bid to not send any delegates this year. CUT DOWN Councillor Ted Wright said he hoped council would be able to hold their spending down this year, noting taxes could only go so high. "We can't build a new town in one year," he said in urging that all committees keep spend- ing to a minimum. He said he felt education costs were "robbing" the taxpayer of too much and while he agreed that education was very import- ant, questioned if perhaps it was not being over-stressed. His suggestion that committee chairmen should stand to give their reports was approved and followed at the meeting. He also said that the speakers should not be interrupted until they are fin- ished, but this was partially fol- lowed. Wright said he was happy to see so many rural folk at the centen- nial celebrations on Monday and asked if perhaps council shouldn't consider offering prizes this year for improvements made to prop- erties in town. Deputy-Reeve Mery Cudmore, pointing out he wasn't sure what duties his new office would en- tail, indicated he was looking forward to finding out. Reeve Derry Boyle told him he would find out by trial and error. Cudmore replied he didn't mind the trials but hoped not to make too many errors. He indicated that a further study of consolidating town of- fices should be made. SUGGEST PLANS Later in the meeting during committee reports, some of the chairmen listed projects they hope to see undertaken this year. Drains committee chairman Joe Wooden said he thought a storm drain along Pryde Boule- vard from Sanders St. to the river was a necessity. Other projects listed by him included: closing of the open ditch from Edward to Albert Street; sanitary sewers to cover sec- tions of Thomas St. and Victoria St. West; replacement of street name signs; cleanup of the town property near the Scout Hall and the Marlboro St. pumping station; a better policy regarding the cut- ting of weeds; and new quarters for the clerk, although he said the latter could probably not be undertaken this year. At the conclusion of his re- port, Wooden pointed out that not all things change with time. Members of Exeter council arrived at the town hall at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday for their inaug- ural meeting and didn't adjourn until 10:30 p.m., although they naturally took time out for two meals. Speeches made at the session by Mayor Jack Delbridge and his council members indicated few unexpected projects for the coming year. The Mayor actually had no projects outlined at all in his inaugural address, as he devoted his time to expressing his con- cern over the fact municipal councils were losing their pow- ers and would soon disappear unless they took a stand in the near future against the pirating of their duties by other levels of government. He suggested that the placing of more jurisdiction in the hands of senior levels of government was wrong, noting that it was municipal councils who were ac- tually closest to the people and could better administer their functions. Mayor Delbridge also pointed out municipal councils do not waste time fighting over stupid issues such as the federal gov- ernment did over the flag debate and the Gerda Munsinger af- fair. He said it was "stupid" to argue over this type of thing. Councillor Joe Wooden agreed that local government was "ex- tremely important" but reiterat- ed a previous statement that the erosion lof their responsibili- ties was the result of them hav- ing abdicated their responsibili- ties, thereby forcing other levels of government to handle these duties. "We're performing an import- — Continued from front page that council be kept abreast of the activities of the Authority, especially in regard to the con- struction of the Parkhill Dam. The Bend's representative on the Forest district high school board will be W. A. Sturdevant, replacing Clayt Mathers, who tendered his resignation. At the request of tax Col- lector Griff Thomas, council in- structed clerk DesJardins to pre- pare a by-law changing the a- mount of interest charged on tax arrears. Commencing with taxes due for the year 1967, the initial penalty will be 3% with half of one per cent per month to be charged after the first month. This brings the interest charged in line with bank rates and eases the calculation for the collector. The rates of pay for fire de- partment officials were also re- viewed and a few changes made. Fire chief Lawrence Mason will receive $100 per annum and new positions of deputy chief and two fire captains were created. The deputy and captains still to be named will be paid $75 and $50, respectively. At the opening inaugural ses- sion Tuesday morning, Rev. E. Wattam delivered an inspiring message, instructing council on their responsibilities to the mun- icipality and to God. STUDENTS ATTEND Clerk Murray A. DesJardins administered the oaths of office to Reeve Wassmann and the four- man council along with PUC member Lawrence Mason and Stephen school board members Don Flear and Mel Douglas. The following committees were set up for the next two years. 90 hurt Ten die, Ad Manager Howie Wright, a native of Tor- onto, has been appointed Adver- tising Manager of The Exeter Times-Advocate.

Involved in the first accident of the new year were a parked car owned by Ronald Schroeder, Zurich, and another car driven by David Alexander Tremeer, S eaforth. -- Continued from front page timated at $1,000' by Constable Wright. A parked truck was involved in a crash on Huron Street, just east of Exeter, Thursday at 7;00 p. m. The truck was owned by La- verneHeywood, RR 3 Exeter, and had been parked on the north side of Huron Street. It was hit by a car driven by John Nelson Pritchard, 17 Gidley St.. who was westbound. Total damage was given as $ 410 by Constable Bill Glassford. FOR THE BEST IN TV SERVICE 236-4094 ZURICH McADAMS TV Clandeboye native passes at Aylmer By MRS. J. H.
