the agreement, West Lorne will
pay $25 a night for use of the
skates. Noting that Exeter had
borrowed skates from another
municipality a few years ago
when it was experimenting with a
roller skating program, Jim
McKinlay commented that RAP
could help out West Lorne with
one of its recreation programs
and pick up some useful revenue
at the same time.
Plans are still going ahead to
install lights at the tennis courts.

the project to proceed in several

Exeter's summer playground
program will continue for at least
another year, but it will be
reduced both in terms of weeks
that it is offered and in funding.
This year's playground will be
four weeks long with one ad-
ditional Caneda Week, and two
special event weeks. Five
playground leaders have been
hired by RAP to head up the
program.
Rec. director, Jim McKinlay,
who had hoped that the
playground program would be
about the same as last years in
terms of time and money spent
had applied to the provincial
government for a playground
grant of $3,500 but RAP will
receive a reduced grant of $2450,
Commenting on the reduced
figures available for the project,
McKinlay said that it would be
difficult to run much of a
program because the minimum
wage has increased. Wages are
the most expensive portion of the
program and they will run about
$4260 this year,
"Are you prepared to subsidize
a program for $2,000 when it was
subsidized for close to $2,300 a
year ago?", McKinley asked.
In the end, a motion for a
reduced summer playground
program was carried.
In other business, Exeter will
rent its stock of roller skates to
West Lorne for this season since

My wife and I were gardening on
Saturday afternoon when we saw
a moving van arrive next door.
Grubby as we were we hastened
over to greet our new neighbors.
The following week, they in-
vited us to a housewarming
party. As we dressed, I watched
in fascination as my wife added a
fall to her hair, struggled into a
girdle, painted her lips, applied
eye shadow and false eyelashes,
enameled her fingernails, and
popped in her contact lenses.
Finally, she looked into the
mirror and said with a satisfied
sigh, "Well! Tonight they're
going to see the real me!"

Work on the old Town Hall is
"steaming right ahead", ac-
cording to the Exeter and District
Heritage Foundation. Materials
have been ordered to make
repairs to the belfry and work has
been started to replace the floor
in the fire hall. Plastering of the
ceiling in the upstairs hall will
begin this week.
A fire escape will be installed in
the upstairs of the Town Hall to
conform with the wishes of the
Exeter Area Fire Department
and the Foundation hopes to have
this done in time to put on an arts
and crafts show the weekend of
May 21, The project would help
provide more funds to go into
restoration of the building.
A feasibility study on the
restoration is being undertaken
- by - architect 'Nick Hill:" That
report is expected to go into print
in about a week's time, with, the
Foundation from Exeter and the
Ontario Heritage Foundation
splitting the costs.
Although the Exeter Foun-
dation has still not received a
building permit from inspector,
Doug Triebner, Exeter Council
has issued instructions that one
should be issued. Architect, Nick
Hill has submitted „plans to
Triebner, but the building in-
spector has refused to pass them
so far.
The T-A talked to Goderich
building inspector, Roy
Breckenridge this week to get
his opinion on enforcement of the
new Ontario Building Code in
restoration of a historic building.
He said that as he understood the
building code, it was not meant to
apply as stringently to older
buildings as it would to newly
constructed ones.
Breckenridge also said that he
understood that the building code
used by the Ontario Heritage
Foundation for historic buildings
was much more stringent with
regard to exiting facilities in an
older building than was the new
Ontario Code.
Members of the Exeter
Heritage Foundation have stated
that by the time the building is
completely restored it must
conform to the Heritage building
code and therefore in order to
receive Heritage grants, they
must give assurance that the
building will be brought up to

items in the contract have been
clarified. One criticism was that
the lot on which the Town Hall
sits has not yet been surveyed
and that a stipulation must be
included, limiting the amount of
land to be leased.
Coun. Bob Simpson raised a
question with regard to the
Foundation's authority to tear
down the public washroom at-
tached to the building. The
washroom had been condemned
by the Huron County Board of
Health upon a request from
building inspector, Doug
Triebner,
Reeve Derry Boyle stated that
the Foundation had the authority
"because we (Council) gave
them the building."

Community Centre for the spring
smoecieettiyn.g of the horticulture
lvirs.Ellis Strahan, president,
greeted all the guests, A lovely
spring poem which she recited
set the mood for the happy and
informative gathering After a
short business period where they
heard about the coming bus trip
on June 14th, etc. planting to be
done around the hall, and the
summer fower show, they were
entertained with several num-
bers by four lovely Pepper girls,
Marilyn, Laurie and Jo-Ann ac-
companied by Brenda.
The guest speaker of the
evening, Mr. Ralph Ellison, of
Stratford was introduced by Mrs,
C.W. Schroeder and later
thanked by Mrs, J. MacDougald,
Mr. Ellison had a wealth of
hints and information to give
from his experience with working
with wood over the years. Anyone
interested in new ideas for
bazaars, was certainly reward-
ded. He gave useful information
in finishing new pieces or re-
finishing cherished antiques.

favoured with several lovely
accordion selections. Another
singing group from Dublin, Betty
Ann Kroonen, Ruth and Vickie
McCreight accompanied by
Diane Deloyer on the guitar was
well received,
After several draws the
evening came to a close with the
plant exchange. It is amazing
how many different plants can
appear at one meeting.

those standards by the time the
building is opened to the public as
a Heritage building. They con-
tend that enforcing the Exeter
building bylaws under the
Ontario Building Code is being
done in a fashion that should only
apply to brand new buildings, and
that the Heritage Code is the one
specifically designed for older,

"The Ontario Building Code
just can't be made to apply
• completely to a building of that
E vintage", Breckenridge said.
F., "It just doesn't work. You have to
compromise." I think that the
people of Exeter should be happy
that someone has taken over the
E- responsibility for the building's
restoration", he said, adding that
E. he might look at the matter a
little differently if the Town Hall
was still owned by the Town.
