EXETER Don't Miss it! Everything Goes Plans official opening of flower, gift shop Mr. Hoogenboom will carry the work of some local craftsmen too, including Mrs. Evelyn Har- t! , a weaver from Goderich, and Mrs. Kaaren Batten, Exeter, normal buSineSs of flowers, will carry many various types of art and craft products for gifts, Mr. Hoogenboom stressed that he wants to carry unique gifts, but at reasonable prices. "We want to keep business in Ex- eter," he said, "and we have a good selection of things at fairly reasonable prices". Some of the unusual items for sale are Mexican ponchos and marionnettes, Norwegian pewter and candles, as well as a wide selection of Canadian crafts and goods. A little mere tempting to the taste buds are the several flavors of old fashioned stick candy. He works in metal and some of his pieces are in galleries around the world. The unusual design of the new flower shop was Mr. Hogen. who does pottery and macrame work. Also for sale will be some of the work of Caesar Llbertino, who was born in Italy, but now lives and works near Hespeler. Take 40 gallons of stain and thousands of cedar shakes, all hand dipped, and you can hp. agine what Ben Hoogenboorn spent a lot of hours this summer doing. The shakes were intended for the outside of the new Exeter Flowers building and now that the finished product is built, Mr. Hoogenboom is very satisfied with his work. The new flower and gift shop, located right beside the former building on Main St. south will be officially opened today, tomorrow, and Saturday. It is more than twice the size of the old shop, and in addition to the boom's idea. It is attached right on to the front of his house and he hopes eventually to be able to expand the business even further to the house, and perhaps to have an art gallery. He said that the vast majority of his business up until this time has been done on the phone, although he had a small selection of gifts in the other shop, He said now, however, that he hopes peo- ple will come into the shop to look around. "Above all," he said, " we want people to know that we are more than a flower shop", Mr.Floogenboom celebrates his fifth anniversary as a businessman in Exeter in December. Clinton hosts final 4-H day Township of HAY Ratepayers I solicit your support in the forthcoming election and if elected will serve you to the best of my ability. JOE MILLER For Councillor WIDE VARIETY — Pictured are just a few of the many unusual items and gift suggestions Ben Hoogenboom will feature at his official opening, starting today. He holds a piece of metalwork by Ubertino, depicting birds in flight, and is surrounded by everything from fisherman's chairs, at the left, to the large, decorative bottle on the right. T-A photo The twenty-fifth Annual Huron County 4-H Achievement Night will be held in the Central Huron Secondary School, Clinton, on Friday, December 1, commen- cing at 8:00 p.m. All Huron County 4-H Agricultural Club members who completed a project in 1972 will receive their awards on this oc- casion, as well as those who have received special trophies and awards for their 1972 4-H club work. Everyone who has an interest in the 4-H Programme is invited to attend the Achievement Night. GB candidates state views about issues, and candidacy years I was responsible for many improvements and for various pieces of improved legislation. I would like to think that the voters feel that in balance my record deserves their continued support at the polls on Monday, December 4. In view of the upcoming municipal elections across the province Monday, the Times- Advocate conducted a survey of all persons contesting seats on municipal councils in this area. The following questions were posed to each candidate: 1) What do you believe are the main issues in your municipality and what is your stand on them? 2) Why should voters support your hid for election? MURRAY DES JARDINS The issues in Grand Bend, are the same issues that face the average small municipality. Peo- ple tend to envy the services enjoyed by their "city cousins", but the same people must realize, increased services mean increased taxes. If I am fortunate enough to be elected to council, I will practice "look before you leap", and "Rome was not built in a day". BOB SHAREN The only issue I feel in Grand Bend is which direction the town is going. I solicit your vote because I am young and aggressive and will work hard for the town. Open house WALTER CRUMPLIN 1. I believe the main issues in the Village of Grand Bend are: The development of a recreational area on property recently purchased by the Village which will be beneficial to the residents and non- residents of the Village. The maintenance and improve- ment of the beach area, which is the main attraction we have to offer during the tourist season. The continuance of good relationship and cooperation with the O.P.P. I intend to give my full support to the above issues because I believe that if these objectives are attained along with others that may come up from time to time, they will benefit all tax- payers. 2. It is my intention to be conscientious and do my best for the community as a whole, if the electors see fit to support me at the Poll. 4 Friday, December 1st at the new Royal Bank Exeter has a new Royal Bank combining modern banking facilities with Royal Bank comfort, convenience and service. In fact, we're so proud of our new bank, we've deCided to have an Open House... and you're invited to drop it, and look around. Your hosts—Manager R, bowker and Assistant Man- ROYAL BAN K serving Ontario ager Peter Witherspoon will be there with their friendly staff to welcome you and they'll have lots of time to sit down and chat over coffee and pastries. Se drop in and'meet the people who make the Royal Bank, the helpful bank it's the special Royal Bank way. JOHN J. PAYNE SR. I don't think that there are any "main" issues that have changed things in the past two years. At that time I promised a business man's approach to the important position of reeve. I promised, (and I kept it), that we would hold the tax rate. I am sure that the tax rate can be held for the next two years. Why should the voters support my bid for re-election? That question is easier to answer. I promise to immediately begin a winter works program of great importance to our community, which will employ many of our people this winter, These pro- jects will vastly improve the appearance of our community, and provide several new services and recreational activities for our people, as well as summer guests and visitors. Most impor- tant amongst these are shower and wash room facilities for visiting boatmen, For the past two years, or more, boatmen have been avoiding Grand Bend because We have not provided these facilities. This has meant a loss of income to our merchants, The other portions of my program are detailed in a release I am making to our people before election day. There is no way that, my program will cost residents of Grand Bend any money. I do think that during the two 1
