If' we give a merchant our custom, we have
a right to expect him to advertise—to tell us
weekly in the columns of "THE EXETER
TIMES," what he has for us, Advertising
shop op news, designed to inform us, save our
time, and bring to our attention desirable mer-
chandise.
Every retailer who is alive to the of
his customers has a message—often many mes-
sages—for his customers concerning new goods,
special offerings, and things that we ought to
know about. Customers and non -customers
will be attentive and responsive to these mes-
-sages, if they are delivered every week in the
forth of advertisements in "THE EXETER
TIMES," The way, to get more business is to
ask for it.
A NOTE TO MERCHANTS
Would YOU buy much or .regularly from firms
that never solicit your trade. . Do. you not say-.,
"The firm that wants my business must came
after. it?
Yet' some of you say, in effect, to yonrecustome.

peeps
ess
More and more residents .of Cities
are feeling t1 1 cessit
and townsa f g the x e z y
at short'res ite fro n, the .cares of
A, n
business during the simmer >nionths.
Country people do not seem to crave
for it so nach 'because thern work
ork
loos so mach of variety in it, but the
bire s filen has theConstant ant grin
d
in the same monotonous round of
duties fromJanuary, .te January. ' To
him and his family the }insistent'call
of the wildwoocls comes with 'great
force, as the heat of summer makes
life almost unbearable in the city
streets and homes. ' Happy are they.
if they 'know of some secluded
spot
t
where they may go for a week or
longer, tate longer the better, The
resort at Grand Bend, Ont.; on Lake
Huron, combines in :an eminent de-
gree the qualities Haat go tonmake an
ideal spot to spend a,summer holiday
free from the cares of state or busk-
ness. Here we have gently rolling
surface covered with an abundance
of oak and pine trees, providing am-
ple shade' for the nunnerou's cottages
built along the sides of rustic aven-
ues running through the valleys par-
ellel to the lake shore. The beach
is an excellent one. The water isn't
deep at the edge, but soon is deep
enough for swininiers".
SHADY NOOKS ' EVERY WHERE.
Lovers of nature are delighted' with
their surroundings. Shady cooks are
everywhere; gentle rising ridges cor-
ered with trees give variety; blatk
squirrels and, many birds cheer the
passers-by, while the water is an end-
less source of entertainment to young
and old. Whether ina quiescent mood
or in all the .turbulence of a sum-
mer storm, bathers and watchers de-
light to gather on the sandy beach.
The rolling waves add a spice of fun
and danger to the paddlers and swim-
mers there. The ropes provided
make it safe, and the rolling waters
intensify sift
thesatisfaction of the mer-
ry bathers. Usually however, the
lake is calm, and delighted throngs
frolick inthe t e waters and frequently
iearn to swim.
Incoming visitors -from a distance
should take a train to Parkhill or Ex-
eter, where niototte buses -}Peet the
trains and carry passengers at a=tea-
sonable cost, allowing two suit cases
to each passenger without extra
charge. Two suit cases will carry an
ample supply ofeclothing for two
week's vacation, as there is very little
"dressing up" doire. The visitors
bring their old clothes, never their
1': best, because; they.:aite here: for a good
time.
Newcomers are surprised to find
how many points are represented' by
the summer visitors. For instance,
two cottages on opposite. sides. of
'Woodward avenue last week lied for
occupants, peo lpig from Toronto,.
Hamilton, Detroit, Du1uthj Exeter,°
Washington, ' Blake} Seaforth and
Hensall. In. takingout a load of
children in' a rowboat one'day I found_
I had them from Stratford London,
Guelph, Nfielugan and Galt..
APPETITES . ,
X' iITE,fi .(ARL GOOD.
Those Who'are ;Iters for a rest gen-
erally er1,
lY sleep well and long. Appetites
are good and, the visitors live well.
The forenoons are, generally spent in
the care of tine, cottage, All are ex-
peoterl- to take a, morning dip in the
lake before for Some e bxealcfast. Sou put it
off until later. In the afternoon the
beach is lined with bathers and on-
lookers. Boating occupies the atten-
tion' of
others. In the evening there•
is generally dancing in the pavillion
for those who ivish to indulge.
Some 'picnic parties are held in
various nearby places, A delightful
one, attended one day lately, started
by rowboat 'along the shore about 7
a. m. Breakfast was eaten about
three miles away from the starting
point, and dinner about the same dis-
tance farther on. Those who 'haven't
eaten beefsteak -or bacon cooked - over
an open fire have missed one of the,
most delicious treats possible. Pota-
toes were roasted . by digging a hole
in the sand, 'r ;lining it with stones,
building a,:geod fire in it for about"20
minutes,- then after removing the em-
bers, the potatoes covered with sand
are then placed above the hot stones.
More stories are placed on top and a
good fire started on them. In about
35 minutes the potatoes are cooked,
fit for a king,,` Bathing and resting
under tate leafy shade fillin the in-
tervals until all too soon it is time`to
return.
LOTS OF FISHING.
Again, fishing gives much pleasure
to many who sit on the end of the
pier.. and have:,. "fisherman's luck,"
sometimes . a good string, at other
times,not' even a nibble.
On Sunday,Sunday school is held
in the camp' allotment for religious
services. This begins at 10.15 a. in.
under the -leadership of 1-I, E. Huston
superintendant, At 11 a.m. a church
service is held and again at 7 p.m.
Rev. G. A. 'Leichliter, of London, is
taking the services this month.
To him who loves to visit places
that were important years ago, the
opportunity is here. About three
miles to the north are the remains of
an old pier, about all that is left of
Port BIake,', which' was•a busy ship-
ping place' of ^cirdwood and other

Wm. Bagshaw, of Exeter, visited
the Bend first in 1853, 69 years ago.
At that time Brewster's Mills was a
busy place, with two upright saws
and a lath and shingle will in- connec
tion. { At one time there were three
hundred men on the payroll, and bus-
iness was,. good. An Indian cemetery'
was close at hand, and in it were bur-
ied at least two white men. Now all
is gone,
Where. Grand Bend now stands
there was no white settlement. The
Indians from the Saugeen used to
come d.bwn in large numbers and e
sect their wigwams, in which they
lived while they fished and hunted.
An Englishman named. Norris started
a fishing business soon after, and
when he returned to Bristol, Messers.
Hamlin and Abraham Sanders con-
tinued the business.

The road through
the pinery isn't good, but it will take

PLEASANT DIEi11ORfES.
On the point is a splendid place to
have a meal and pleasant memories
will cling to those who have been
there, After one of those trips one
comes back saying: "After all there
is no place like the Bend,
Another reason why . Grand Bend
fills the bill as a watering place, is
the ample wooded territory stretch-
ing along, the shore for miles.'' At
present-thelarge number of cottages
arein the Lake View grove, all rea-
ched front the splendid - :main 'street
running back from the post office..
Here a large amount of work in the
construction of roads and building of
cottages is constantly going on. It is
a beautiful situation. -
North of Lake View is Oak Wood,
being opened up by Mr. Walker, pres-
ident of the >>>Bank of Commerce.
Here some beautiful cottages are be-
ing erected. Dr.., McLean's is com-
pleted, Mr. Jones' is building, and an
artistic Iog cabin for Mr. Mitchell (all
of London) is nearing completion. ,In
each of these there is a rustic stone
fireplace. e
- North of this park is •Maple Grove,
a private park, occupied by -11 fami-
lies front London and Stratford, with
rustic arbors and bridges, as well as
a tennis court: Everything is ar-
ranged to make life happy and enjoy-
able.
Away to the south of the big cut,
by which the Aux Sauble River enters
the lake, is another new property op-
ened up by Mr. Southcott, of Toronto.
See the Bend! Spend a few weeks
and recuperate. It willadd years to
your life to take a holiday surround-
ed by things as left by nature.
