MRS. HANNA E. LAYTON
Mrs. Hanna (Medd) Layton
passed away at Huronview

year.
Born in Hullett Township,
she was the daughter of the late

education in Clinton and Ottawa
she taught school for over thirty
years in Ontario and western

After moving to Exeter with
her parents in 1921 she taught
school at Winchelsea and at
Exeter until her marriage in
1929 to George W. Layton. As a
life member in the UCW she was
an active worker in the church,
her greatest pleasure being the
work and companionship she
enjoyed with the younger people
of the town, many being former
pupils.
Funeral services were held
December 18 at the

with Rev. Glen Wright
officiating. Acting as pallbearers
were David Medd, Mervin

Department has prepared a
general knowledge test for
operators of snow. vehicles. This
test consists of 50 questions
concerning the safety, speed
limit, lights, Insurance, age of

interesting.
Any person who wishes to try
one of these tests can do so by

answers.
In making the announcement
Chief Ted Day said, "I think
there are a few people, in this
community that really need to
take this test, but will they
come, who knows."
At the same time Day said.
"Please keep in mind that the
bylaw regarding over night
parking is now in effect. This
bylaw states that no motor
vehicle shall be parked on any
street, within the town limits
between the hours of 1:00 a.m.
and 6:00 a.m. between
December 1 and March 31, of the
following year.
This bylaw is enforced to
assist the town work crews in
the removal of snow from the
streets — so let's co-operate.
This does not mean that if
you are visiting a friend, that
you can not park in front of his
home, This bylaw is for persons
that continually park their
Vehicles on the streets, every
night of the week, and
particularly after a heavy snow
falls, They obstruct the snow
removal equipment,
Use your common
judgement, if it snows, get your
car off the street."
Council puzzled
over dump plan
Members of Exeter council
are unhappy about the fact their
dump has been ruled as
unacceptable by the waste
management branch of the
department of energy and
resources and also in the manner
in which an official from the
branch has been conducting
meetings with area
municipalities over the proposal
to provide a central dumping
setup for South Huron.
"The problem is bugging
me," stated Councillor Tom
MacMillan this week, adding that
in his opinion the officials
conducting the discussions with
area municipalities are too
secretive and "using a big stick"
in their attempts to get the
central dump idea approved.
He said he would like
Exeter's official representative,
Councillor Ross Dobson, to give
council some idea "of where we
stand" before he leaves council.
Monday was Dobson's last
meeting.
"Most people know as much
as I do," Dobson quickly
reported, adding that he had
gained nothing from the most
recent meeting.
"I don't think they've had a
fair look at our site," he said,
noting that the officials would
give no reasons why the Exeter
dump has been termed
unacceptable.
He said the officials didn't
take any tests and in fact didn't
know if there was any water
pollution being caused by the
dump operation.
Dobson did say the officials
didn't like the smell of the
decaying turnips at the dump,
but during one visit they had
taken home a bushel of carrots
to eata
Mayor Delbridge was also
critical of some of the concepts
being presented and suggested
the branch officials "had
another think coming" if they
thought farmers wanted to pay
for weekly garbage pickups at
their gateways.
Members agreed to delve into
the situation further and try and
get officials to indicate the
reasons why they want the
Exeter dump closed.
They were all bewildered by
the fact the officials had chosen
a prospective site that was only a
mile and a quarter away from
the present Exeter dump and
was in the same type of area and
water level.
Exeter council this week gave
permission for a London man to
operate an office equipment
sales and service business from a
home in a residential area.
Gerry Mathers, a son-in-law
of Mr. and Mrs. Percy Merkley,
of town, said he had been
negotiating for a house but
needed approval to operate the
business out of a portion of the
house on Main St., a few doors
south of the Presbyterian
church.
He said he would live in the
house and use only a rear
portion for business purposes.
Council looked through the
zoning bylaw and noted that
several types of businesses can
be operated in a residential zone,
but an office equipment
operation was not one of the
approved types.
"I really can't see anything
wrong with it," commented
Mayor Jack Delbridge, and other
members agreed.
Mrs. Jermyn explained that'
the type of business would
probably attract fewer parked
cars than a dentist, doctor or
hairdresser which are permitted
in a residential zone.
She also added that an
official from the department of
municipal affairs had suggested
some of the regulations in the
bylaw were outdated and this
Accident victim
refuses blood
A Huron Park woman
continues in critical condition in
a Sarnia Hospital after being
involved in a two-car crash near
Sarnia on Sunday, December 13.
Mrs. Carry Hardy while in a
semi-conscious condition
reiterated her husband's stand
that badly needed blood
transfusions should not be
administered because of religious
beliefs.
James Hardy, of Huron Park,
a self-employed welder had at
the time of the accident refused
to give permission to doctors to
give the transfusions.
The Hardy family are
members of the Jehovah's
Witness.
Doctors at the Sarnia hospital
said Mrs. Hardy lost almost
two-thirds of her normal blood
supply in the crash and needs
seven or eight pints of blood by
transfusion.
