Some mothers have told me how glad they were that the children were included with rides and prizes to win. The senior citizens were able to take their place with bingo and their beautiful quilt which was won by Elsie McDonald of Exeter; also their prize winning float.

An Act respecting the Village of Exeter, Statutes of Ontario 1899, Chapter 47 is repealed. 2, Village of Exeter By-Law No. 8, 1899, Being a By- Law to provide a fixed general mill rate for farmland in blocks of not less than 20 acres is repealed. In 1899, the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the Village of Exeter set a fixed rate of three and one-half mills on the general mill rate, together with rates for debenture debt, school and county pur­ poses. The relief was granted to owners of farmland in blocks in excess of twenty (20) acres for such ser­ vices as electric lighting, fire protection, sidewalks etc. Assessment and mill rates have changed over the years. Some properties assessed as farmland have residences attached, enjoying these services that exemption was granted for. Council of the Corporation of the Town of Exeter deem this fixed rate for farmland no longer equitable or fair. By applying to the Provincial Legislature for the Act and By-Law to be repealed will cause the owners of the said parcels of farmland to be subject to full general municipal mill rate (including debenture debt), as well as the rates for school and county pur­ poses.
