Store 397 Main St., Exeter Mrs. Grant Mills was in charge of the programme using Thanksgiving as the theme of the Worship service. Mrs. H. May read Psalms 67 and 100 both of which dealt with giving thanks. Mrs. A. Hamilton gave the meditation entitled "Thanksgiving Fragrance." The writer, enjoying the good smells in her mother's kitchen suggested she should scoop up some of the kitchen air to keep for the rest of the year. Her mother's reply, it takes more than a kitchen to bring true Thanksgiving was the source of much thought, Mrs. Hamilton concluded by reading a poem What Thanksgiving means to me, written by Mrs. L. Thomson's granddaughter. Mrs. B. Francis led in prayer and Mrs, E. Willard played a piano selection — variations of the hymn Come ye thankful people. Mrs. Alvin Pym showed pictures and gave an interesting account of her trip to Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Java, Jakarta and Bali. Several items from these places were displayed. Mrs. R. E. Hopper thanked the speaker. Shop At Wilson's Jewellery Beside Bank of Montreal, Exeter PLEASING YOU — PLEASES US I.!

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.
