We often hear it remarked that
Exeter is dull and the place is going
to the bad, but if these persons, who
are continually grumbling and are
never satisfied would only visit some
of our neighboring towns and villages
they would find chart we are not so far
behind. A gentleman remarked the
other day what a beautiful little town
you have. Your streets all look so
clean, and you have such an abund-
ance of beautiful shade trees, and the
village in general seems to be in a
very prosperous condition. We, who
are living here, do not appreciate and
realize that we are living in the midst
of nature's adornment. Let our towns.
people take the trouble to get on the
top of spine high building and if they
are able to ediniee nature at all, they
will be carried away by the pleasant
sight, and would cease uttering those,
sentences which are so often uttered.
