The PUC plan to purchase a portion of land from Bev Morgan & Sons on which a pumping station will be erected. The 173' by 200' parcel of land will be bought for $2,000. Under terms of the sale, the PUC will be required to provide water to one of two locations designated by the property owner if he wishes the service. In addition, if the well is abandoned, the property owner will have the option to purchase the land from the PUC at the same figure as the sale price. In other business on Tuesday, the PUC: — Learned from Davis that the materials required to provide services to the South. Huron Recreation Centre have been ordered. He said it would cost the PUC between $5,000 and 56,000 to undertake the work. — Approved extending the discount date on utility bills for the post office department to the 27th day of the month in which it is billed. The date for most other customers is the 20th. However, the post office department noted it was difficult to meet the earlier date due to the payment system used by the department. — Were advised that customers would be asked to fill out a questionnaire with their next bills. It deals with the use of air conditioning and electric heating in local homes, Members said they hoped customers would provide the information as required. — Re-testing of 311 meters will be undertaken this year as part of the annual program required by the federal government. Mayor Bruce Shaw said he hoped his was one of the meters to be tested, because his high hydro bills indicated the meter was not working properly. Davis replied that, contrary to popular belief, most meters actually slow down with age rather than speed up. • Aux! il• ary take pot luck The Exeter Legion Ladies Auxiliary held their first regular meeting of the year on Monday night and has been the custom over the years it was preceded with a pot luck supper. During the business session plans were made to run two bingos, the profits from each to be given to the new Recreational Centre. The conveners for the Auxiliary's 25th anniversary dinner and dance reported that all was going well and that word had been received that the first Auxiliary president, Mrs. Vernon Heywood would be coming from B.C. to this special occasion. Sports Officer, Barb Hearn announced there are several bowling tournaments coming up. Wingham on October 6; Kin- cardine on October 27. First vice- president, Esther Hillman, gave a report on the convention which was held in Windsor last week. A donation of $25.00 was made to the Salvation Army. President Noel Westlake then introduced the guest speaker, Bill Powell from Westminster Hospital, London, who brought greetings from all the vets, He told of the loneliness of these men and women some of whom have been in the hospital since 1920 and of how the parcels that are sent down from our Branch every month gave them such pleasure. He said the average age of the 600 permanent residents is 59 years and that the oldest is 99 years. He read some articles from the Hospital newspaper that some of the vets had written about their trip to the Exeter Rodeo and told us that he is always looking for trips to take them on, just to get them away from their everyday existence. He said most times they are all sleeping by the time they get home from these outings but they are so much happier because of them. Mr Powell has been busy travelling around to the different branches keeping the Legions informed on the wants and needs of these worthy men and women who find themselves bound together with one thing in common-they are all vets. President Westlake thanked the guest speaker. The mystery gift was won by Gladys Bierling. After the meeting was closed a few games of bingo were enjoyed, Dance HURON PARK REC.
