Stephen hears
reports of drains
Stephen township council met
recently to read reports on two
municipal drains.
Engineer C.P. Corbett of Lucan
was instructed to bring in a
detailed report on the Martin-
Neil drain. This will consist of
improvement of the old drain
plus a new outlet,
The Dietrich drain in the area
of Lot 10, Concessions 19 and 20
was given two readings and
provisionally adopted. Tenders
for the work will be invited.
The Kleinfeldt Group
engineering firm was instructed
to complete the report on the
Adams Drain extension which
empties into the Walker Drain. It
is located on LRE and LRVV
Concessions, north of Grand
Bend.
To stick with
easement
Exeter council decided this
week not to increase their offer to
Ed Hunter-Duvar for the
easement which was required on
his Huron St. East property' for
the, installation of the Ann Street
storm drain in 1975.
In March, council offered him
$935 for the easement, which
included $500 for the use of the
property and another $435 for an
appraisal the local resident had
done on his property to determine
the value of the easement.
His lawyers advised that the
$935 was not acceptable and that
he wanted a total of $1,287. This
figure included $100 for legal fees
and $175 for interest on the
amount owing him,
However, on the motion of
Reeve Si Simmons, council
decided to stick with the $935
offer, although their solicitor
Robert Mountain had sugges,ted
paying half the increased amount
suggested by Hunter-Duvar.
"The town has a few standards
and I hope a few back bogies,"
Simmons suggested in making
the motion.
It was indicated the town could
end up paying more than the
amount being requested if the
matter went to expropriation, but
Simmons noted that the land
owner could also end up losing
out.

At the United Church Rev,
Elwood Morden conducted the
Sunday morning worship and
officiated at the service of Holy
Communion. Rev. Morden took
the text for the Meditation "This
Bread" from the scripture lesson
Matt. 26-26 and John 6-35. "And
Jesus said, I am the Bread of
Life, he that cometh to Me shall
never hunger, and he that
believeth in Me shall never
thirst."

To pay half of
sewer outlet
Council agreed this week to pay
half the costs involved in
providing Exeter developer Len
Veri with a sewer outlet onto
William Street from his proposed
apartment complex in the centre
DE the'block ,bounded Eny Sanders-
Carling-William-Gidley Streets.
Access to the site is actually via
Carling St., but council members
had previously agreed that the
sewer from the apartments
should not be permitted into the
Carling St. line because it is
already at capacity and ex-
periencing problems from time to
time.
Monday night, Reeve Si
Simmons said he had met with
Veri and the latter was agreeable
to Securing an easement to use
the William St. sewer line if
council would pay half the costs.
Councillor Ken Ottewell
questioned why council should
pay half, noting that he had to
pay the entire cost when he un-
dertook a similar sewer hookup
some time ago.
Simmons replied that the case
was different in that council
couldn't give Veri an outlet onto
Carling.
Ottewell agreed that it was a
special case.

23 STORES TO SERVE YOU
•
REMEMBER THAT NUMBER. It could save you a lot of
money and time and help your home town.
DID YOU EVER DRIVE 50 to 100 miles or more to take
advantage of a super-duper special? A local $50 item
50 miles away would have to sell for $33 in order for
you to break even.
THE AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
certifies that 16.5 cents is what it costs to drive your car
one mile. So if you've driven 100 miles round trip to pick
up that special, you'll have to add $16 to that purchase.
That sweet buy can suddenly turn quite sour.
AND EACH 100 MILES takes from 6 to 10 gallons of
gasoline which the potential shortage of oil-derived fuels
would encourage us to save.
LOCAL MERCHANTS, whether they sell groceries,
clothing, drugs, furniture, hardware, appliances or
whatever, feature top line, nationally advertised
products at competitivie prices. These same merchants
support your school, churches and civic groups. They
help us all pay for the improvements that make this
community a better place to live.
SAVE YOURSELF SOME MONEY, help conserve
energy and support your town.

makes any woman look much
older than her real age. When
you rid your face of skin dryness
and its deceitfulness, you im-
mediately look younger than
your birthdays are even willing
to admit, If your skin is really
dry and flaky, and uneomfbr,
table under make-up, take
i Il immediate steps to raise its .
moisture level and lubricate its
surflice effectively. Then, reap-
praise your appearance. For
un-failing results, COCRENIA
Dry Skin Creme actually
disposes of dryness symptoms
with two or three all-night
applications, while you
sleep, COCREMA contains
the purest grade of select cocoa
butter.

I am a new mother and
recently had a man at my door
who said he had an embossed
photo album for me for FREE.
The catch is, that I have to sign
up with a photo studio for 12, 8
x 10" pictures, two to be taken
each year for six years.
The complete price is only
$120, but is it on the "up and
up?"
We are surprised why
anyone has to pay for
something full, and then
have to wait for six years in
order to reap the full benefit.
However that's'your decision
to make and we do not want
to influence you in any way.
We'll be glad to check out
this firm if you'll forward us
their name and address.

This has just arrived but now
I'm wondering if it's quite legal
to purchase land in another
country.
Yes, it's quite legal to own
property in the country other
than Canada. You have no
problem .in that regard;
however the land has to be
registered first, before it can
be offered for sale outside of
Ontario.

I signed an offer to purchase,
not a contract to buy on a car,
with the understanding that I
could take it home for the week-
end,
decided not to keep it, and
returned it on the Monday mor-

and that the contract I signed
was binding,
What can I do?
"IMPACT" reminds it's

The dealer in question has
been in the car business a

Furthermore he claims that

another dealer, by stopping

had issued.
