He explained that the club had made a considerable ex- pencil lure of' time and money in 1979 to renovate, rein- sulate and re-side the facili. ty. it was argued that other types of halls in Exeter are in a different category as they are maintained almost exclusively for the use of their own members and in addition may be rented out at a profit to other organizations. Raymond said this was not the case with the Scout hall as the only revenue is from the ministry of transportation for their examination of drivers. The Lions hold their Ministry of Natural Resources to increase the township hunting licence fees to $5 for residents, $10 for residents of adjacent areas and $50 for non- residents. The township will discon- tinue payment of a for boun- ty as of June 30 of this year.

Councillor Don Cameron presented a motion that the request be turned over to the executive and finance com- mittee for their recommen- dation. This promoted Councillor Ted Wright to ask why that committee's recommenda- tion on the matter wasn't on their report at the Tuesday meeting. He said a decision had been made and Reeve Don. Mac Gregor agreed. Deputy-Reeve Harold Patterson had acted as secretary for the last com- mittee meeting when the decision was made, but he had not included it in the report. "It's back to the drawing boards,'" he suggested. An earlier request for tax relief from the Masonic Lodge for their hall had been turned down by, council on the recommendation of the executive committee. Council did endorse a recommendation from the executive to lease a photocopier at a cost of $122.63 per month for a five- year period, v.4, v. • 4 v Murray. A.

Mills when he presented the annual finan- cial statement to council, Tuesday. The report showed a sur- plus of $120,036, which Mills explained was a turn-around of $198,000. considering that the 1978 budget ended with a deficit of $78.000. "That's a fairly significant change.— he commented. He noted that the major portion of the surplus resulted from a saving of $10.000 in snow removal and $32,000 in capital expen- ditures, while the revenue was $10,000 over on sewers and $20.000 was generated over the budget figure for in- terest revenue. Councillor Jay Campbell, who noted that the financial picture was the one which Mayor Derry Boyle had hoped for, said it was very rare that such a political statement was achieved. Boyle said he was very pleased with the statement, but noted that it was due to the work of council and the guidance of clerk Liz Bell and that he couldn't really take much credit for it. G. H.

She outlined the program, which includes a pancake breakfast, class reunions, old-timers' spor- ting events and a gala dance to be held at the rec centre.
