of their decisions and to get
good value for tax dollars.
Cottrell also mentioned
the need to attract small in-
dustries to provide a
broader tax base and more
opportunities and said he
would also like to see a more
varied and extended recrea
tion and culture activity list
in Exeter.
“Exeter has a lot to offer
and is a good place to live,”
he noted, saying that the un
ique flavor provided by the
blerid of urban and rural
characteristics has given
the Exeter area a sparkle.
Don Cameron, a lecturer
at the Centralia College of
Agricultural Technology,
suggested it was a good idea
to have the candidates stand
on their feet in front of the
audience, “because after
the election you want to be
sure we stay on our feet and
not sit on our duffs”.
He said he was running on
a platform of conscientious
responsiblity, saying he was
interested in the town, had
the time, was reliable and
honest.
He suggested the latter
wasn’t a bad qualification
for a politician today.
The final candidate speak
ing was Alvin Epp, who with
his wife, operates Epp
Homes, which he described
as a home providing a new
start in life for boys “who
have been kicked around for
many years”.
He said he was pleasantly
surprised how the town has
taken to them and how they
have taken to the town.
“It’s a great place to live
and work and I want to be a
part of the growing town of
Exeter,” he said. He
suggested the present coun
cil deserved a great round of
applause and led the
audience in that recognition.
A former Mennomte
minister, Epp said the town
must continue to give new
development a priority
“because unless we have
new blood, we become
stagnate”.
He suggested the town’s
roads and sidewalks needed
improvement and urged
some consideration for
more stop signs on streets
for the protection of
children and the elderly.
He mentioned the down
town parking, and while
noting it was improved,
could stand more work.
“My aim is to listen to
people, work for people, and
produce effective results for
the whole community,” he
concluded.
Raise about $3,500
from Crediton draw
Friday’s Monte Carlo
night and elimination draw
sponsored by the Crediton
parks board and volunteer
firemen was a real success.
The gala night held at the
South Huron Rec Centre
raised about $3,500 for
recreation and community
projects.
The big winners in the
elimination draw were Mrs.
Maurice Beaver. Crediton
and the Exeter Kinsmen
club who split the grand
prize of$1,000.
Winning $50 were; Dick
Lord. Jack Morrisey. Irwin
Ford. Roma and Doug Jer
vis, Bill Wilds. Gerald Dear

Mclsaac. Jim Finkbeiner.
Joe McCann. John Fahner,
Rita Schenk. Rick Bowers,
Allan W a I p e r. Harry
Hayter. Bob Finkbeiner.
John Campbell. The
Farmers and Ed Hearn.
“It's about time you wake
up and do something,” she
said, even in a country
which has few problems
compared to many parts of
the world.
Referring to the locale of
her first of three speeches in
Exeter Mrs. Pahk said
“Education may be very ex
pensive but ignorance is far
more costly."
The Christian missionaries
who came to Korea 100
years ago gave the people of
her native land hope and
promoted the equality of men
and women.
During her early school
years, she was forced to
dress as a boy to gain access
to formal education.
The diminutive but vital
Mrs. Pahk amused the
students with one of the
things her widowed mother
told her young daughter
about attending the school.
“If you need to go to the
bathroom, come home,”
Mrs. Pahk's mother said.
Introducing Mrs. Pahk
was Carf Cann who last year
along with his wife travelled
to Korea with Mrs. Pahk.
Cann called Mrs. Pahk
who has resided primarily in
the United States for the
past fifty years "God’s
miracle at work in Korea.”
He said when they visited
Korea they found between
2,500 and 3.000 boys and girls
in one of the most up to date
technical schools in the
world.
Mrs. Pahk is a women of
“infinite wisdom” who has
authored four books, Cann
stated.
Following her address to
the students she spoke to the
Exeter Christian Women’s
Club and Exeter United
Church.
