Christmas Night Y1I BY DAVE BEIERLING .•Grade 5 Precious Blood _ One Christmas night I heard.• thump bn the•roo( I could not get to sleep because I could hardly wait to get my presents. 1 heard a 'hoo-hoo!' and all of a sudden I heard.another thump In the Iivingroom. I jumped . out of bed and peeked around the corner to the Itvingroomand there was Santa.' He had- glasses and rosy cheeks, a blg-telt, -and big 'black boats. .1 ran to my brother' -and wbke flim up and told him to come.and see Santa. But he was gone and there were presents eeerywere. I went to bed and I got a brand new sleigh and Tlsherprice adventure people and a btaad new snowmobile suite. We had Iota of fun that day. J 1' . is Suggest river as skating rink The recreational auk - committee will be asked to investigate the possibility of providing skating on the Ex- eter reservoir for local youngsters, an igveseigation that previous recreation groups have considered im- practical. The subject was broached this week by Councillor Jay Campbell and didn't meet with much enthusiasm at the outiet by other council members. •Councillor- Lossy Fuller explained that previous recreation committees had turned down such a proposal and Councillor Ted Wright noted that a.siar project - in Stratford had been found not feasible after a trial period. - However, Campbell noted that while there may be problems, successful skating ponds were being operated in such places as Ottawa, Richmond Hill and Thornhill. He said it warranted look- ing into, noting that for ,e limited expense, a lot of en- joyment could be derived. • At the outset of the discus- sion, Reeve Si Simmode noted he was the offiOttfitcP- checker at the river, and t• Campbell said this would be . an added bonus. I just check it, I don't clean it", Simmons quickly replied. Campbell said there were many differences in skating on a pond to skating at the rec centre. "Yes, you have to skate like hell to keep warm," Mayor Derry Boyle com- mented. He had previously indicated that skating sessions at-, the, rec centre were not being patronized to • any considerable degree. "He's going to be mis- sed," commented Councillor Lossy Fuller. pointing out that Mathers was a hard- working member of the committee and "does more than his share". • r *- Council members agreed to the conditions established. by the committee of adjust- ment that will allow Stephen Printing_ .to_move - into-- a former building owned by, Hilt Laing just west of the community park. The committee, acting on requests from neighboring property owners, stipulated that the back yard must re- main as a garden and grass area and not be used for storage and also that alt chemicals be stored inside the building and that it be safe for children. . 1979tohie •' year of child .Next year has been designated "year of the child" and Exeter Coun- cillor Jay Campleell suggested this week the community should be in- • volved in some special ac- tivities to mark the event. He suggested focal youth groups. including 'schools. church, 4-11. Scouts and Guides could have some in- put and special events could be staged such as a mock council. Canada Week ac- tivities and even the theme for next year's Santa Claus parade dealing with the theme. Mayor Derry Boyle -asked the social services com- mittee chaired by Lossy Fuller to study •Campbell's suggestion and make recommendations. To old friends and new go our wishes;., for a wonderful Christmas season.
