The work is still not completed and speculation is that unless there's a drastic change in the weather, it won't be completed until spring. The project has been delayed by a late start and adverse weather conditions that ranged from heavy rains to a blizzard, Portions of the street have been impassable for long periods of time and residents in the area have been forced to park their cars on nearby streets and walk through backyards to their homes. Another problem facing council over the project is the fact the storm sewer is being subsidized -by the ministry of transportation and communications. It is not known if the subsidy Will be carried on to next year if the work is not completed in 1972. This will probably be one of the determining factors as to whether council will charge the contractor the $50 a day penalty. Post office has increase Officials of the Exeter' Post Office report a large increase in the amount of Christmas mail handled this year. Up to Wednesday morning, the local office has handled 167,930 pieces of incoming mail and 110,010 pieces of mail leaving Exeter. This is an increase of 25,400in incoming mail and 10,145 of mail heading out, The busiest day at the local post office was Thursday, December 14 when 26,925 pieces of mail were handled. Assistant Postmaster Bev Rabbets reports the post office will be closed on December 24, 25, 26 and 31 and January 1. On Saturday, December 30 wicket hours will be as usual from 8.30 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. Mail will be going out of the Exeter Post Office on December 26 and January 1 at 5 p.m. Rabbets also said he wished to thank the public for their co- operation in bundling and separating mail before depositing at the post office. rgraft•egle.ta?lersiki;gttttsiltss4FAVistit.q g MIRY CHRRTIMIS • HAY MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY • extends Season's Greetings to all our Policy holders and Friends ?.

Vince Fowlie of Vanastra, councillor - elect informed members of Tuckersmith Township council Tuesday, at the last session of the year. "When dogs start to run in packs of 10, you have a problem." Mr. Fowlie said a number of persons had suffered dog bites, the latest that evening when a child had been bitten. J. E. Harlton, Huron Park Makes many inspections Building inspector Doug Triebner made 407 inspections during the past 11 months he advised council this week. In a prepared report for Monday's final session of the year, Triebner listed the following statistics regarding building since the first of January. Six additions to commercial establishments, 11 new com- mercial, 15 home additions, six swimming pools, four demolitions, 18 new houses, 33 house renovations, 25 com- mercial renovations, 38 shingling jobs, 10 house sidings and 15 miscellaneous, The value of the permits issued was not tabulated. Councillor Mery Cudmore complimented Triebner on his work, stating there were probably many visits which did not show up in the statistics. He also attributed Triebner with helping to straighten out "a lot of problems" which council has faced in the past regarding building inspections. Veterinary Service Branch, Ministry of agriculture and food informed them that since this past spring assistance for building municipal pounds was available up to 40 percent. He said the government was also encouraging area dog pounds. Clerk James McIntosh stated a grant of about $500 was available for capital construction or renovation for a dog pound on a township basis of 20 cents per capita. Mr. Harlton said the building must meet the minimum requirement and be built to specifications in order to get the 40 percent grant by being easily sanitized and kept in a sanitary condition, A lengthy discussion period followed with Mr. Harlton when rules and regulations were considered and ways of making people abide by the township by- law which prohibits dogs running at large. Council will investigate a number of plans and would like to co-operate with neighbouring municipalities in coping with the dog problem. William Dickson of Kleinfeldt Association Limited of Kit- chener, planning consultants, was present at the meeting to Attempt to alter speed The Hon, C.S. MacNaughton has joined Exeter's plea to have the speed limit on Highway 83 altered once again. Earlier this year, the ministry of transportation and com- munications did a survey on the highway and advised council that the average speed within the then 40 m.p,h. zone limit was 50. They recommended that the speed limit be increased with the 60 zone extended inside the town limits. However, in view of the in- dustrial expansion in the area, members of council had second thoughts about the changes and have asked that the limits be reduced. The Huron MPP was advised of the situation and wrote the ministry advising that the reductions were "justified in my view". He backed council's argument that the increased industrial growth in the area warranted a reduction in speed. Outcome of the plea is expected to be known in a short time, discuss progress in preparing the final plan of subdivision for registration prior to the issuing of deeds to the people at Vanastra who are seeking completion of purchase of their properties. Application will be made for a second grant under the provincial municipal winter works program, The initial allocation was for $2325.00. This time council will ask for $4,000.00 Work stopped on restaurant A "stop work order" was put on the Burkley Restaurant building project Tuesday morning by building inspector Doug Trieb- ner, The action was taken because an overhang was built on the front of the new building over Main St. Two weeks ago, owner John Tzavaras had requested the overhang, but council had denied the request on the basis it could be hazardous. At that time, and again this week, members noted that water would drip from the overhang onto the street below and create icy patches as well as icicles. Councillor Mery Cudmore suggested that council pass a bylaw that no building in a commercial area be allowed to have an overhang, but no action was taken on that suggestion, Das Ka"se Haus Wide variety of Canadian and Imported cheeses some mild, some sharp, some delicately flavoured, some pungent, some nut-like and sweet, others smokey and nippy.

Under the program, Exeter will receive $2,744. Of that total, all but 20 percent must be for. labor and those on welfare or unemployed must be given first 0 consideration for the jobs created, The Reeve said considerable painting at the arena and park could be undertaken. Boyle learned the program will provide him with some work. Mayor Jack Delbridge put Boyle in charge of "cooking up the work" to be undertaken. • .?=?'.4•%2.Pi.P.IlittINO.Niz.VA.PAio..cW.J9go.W:43Niat*:20 .1N'ea.Nitz.51;a:Allegs- • IlliteWiriaMoRktWAissi*iiiolltzts:NiiW•ASi c••?AsWgiz?Asmiltis:Ff‘i PiiiSs3;;Ss•NSS•Pitzi.VASM za'ISI-ri:S4ASs.eXINS4•Wia.Nr GREETINGS gees all . a-glimmer, surprises in store!
