The town, about the same size as Exeter . is located in an agricultural district. Mary Anne stayed with the family of Don Mousseau in Hay Township. Also from a small town is Nathalie Dumas. 17, from Ambert near Orleans in France. Nathalie stayed with the family of Dave McClure, near Crediton. The students also spent a week at a youth camp in St. Marys. There, exchange students from around the world got to meet and make friends. Organizers com- mented that this year's group "was probably the best mixing group we've had." The Exeter students too seemed to have no problem mixing. Nathalie speaks Spanish as well as French and English. Mary Anne said she spoke only English, but had no trouble making friends and communicating. when talk- ing slowly. Mike and Jens com- municated well in German dialect. and both spoke English well. Mike had been studying the language for the past two years in his college courses. Jens' voice had a distinct British accent to it. This he explained. was from being taught "proper English" in school by an Englishman. While- prices in Canada compared favourably to Europe. Mary Anne said things were about twice as expensive here as in the States. Hay council Continued from front page concerning the sale of some farmland in the Hay swamp area. It was also proposed the land be drained. Prout explained the swamp was a natural holding area for winter flood water and released the water slowly during the year. The authority owns land in the swamp area and as funds and land are available he said, the conservationists would like to acquire more of the wet lands. Any drainage of a property would adversely affect adjacent lands he noted. Deputy reeve Lionel Wilder said the area was designated as a natural environment on the town- ship's secondary plan. As designated no permanent buildings may be built. There are certain areas in the township that should not be farmed, Wilder said, noting this was one of them. He said the proposal hadn't come before the county development com- mittee but he feels that it will not get county approval. Prout said he didn't care if the property was sold, but he felt it should remain swampland. If a bulldozer is allowed in, he added, it would be hard later to prove it didn't have a "break away" and more land be cleared. Councillor Tony Bedard said the council and the authority's problems would be solved if the land was purchased for conservation. Prout also reminded council that "the authority was expanding a tree planting program to municipalities. Treeshadteeniavailable to land owners through the conservation authority and they are now checking in- terest in tree planting at a municipal level. Council was interested in planting more trees. Wilder said he would like to see more trees planted but reminded council of the proximity and possibility of root damage to header tiles running along township roads. Council opened 15 ap- plications for township grader operator. Two ap- plications came in after the noon deadline and were disposed of. Council members were surprised by the number and quality of the applicants. Bedard commented on the good -paying steady jobs some would be giving up to drive a grader. Dick Rau said many were probably looking for a change in their lives. Mousseau said with in- terest rates what they are today, people know a good job when they see it. Council members were interested in the age of the applicants. Clerk Joan Ducharme reminded them that under the human rights act. age could not be asked. Rau quipped that you couldn't ask a person's sex either, and that sometimes you can't tell. The reeve said council should hire someone from the township for the job. Council will interview five of the applicants.. In other business: Ducharme reminded calncil of a tax bill recently passed which will allow townships to set up interest on tax arrears at the prime rate plus 1'1 percent. She said they would be getting a model bylaw from Toronto. The township will have several contractors re -quote prices on insulation for the township office building. Hay will donate the costs of the township hall rental to .11 the Zurich 125th anniversary committee. The committee rented the hall during the July celebration to house an antique display. The new building inspector Hubert Miller was advised to make use of stop -work or- ders if people were building without the proper permits. Council decided )to file for future reference a main- tenance and occupancy bylaw. Gerald Shantz pointed out the sample bylaw stated owners should repair or remove unmaintained buildings. The bylaw, he said, encouraged them to tear it down, which is what the township hopes to avoid. Council reviewed their six month budget position for 1981. The expenditures were about half, for the half year statement the clerk said, and Mike was neither dis- couraged nor impressed by prices in Canada, but said if he were to move to Canada he would live in a city like Toronto Canada is "too big" he explained. mentioning the long distances between settlements that he doesn't have to travel in Germany. In terms of lifestyle, Mike said people in Canada are more concerned with living and don't work as hard as Germans. He was impressed by the variety of sports available. Baseball and football are not played in Europe. Jens played baseball with one of the local teams and was surprised to get a hit his first time at hat. But he also hurt his leg. he lamented. Jens said he plays volleyball on a Danish national team. Mike and Jens had more than an interest in sports in common. both disliked Cana- dian beer. "It's like water," Mike said adding that some Ger- man beer had an alcohol con- tent of 23 percent. There is no drinking age in most of Europe. Jens said. Anyone could buy 18 percent beer in Denmark and just sit down on a street corner to drink it. Not only dissappointed in the beer. Jens travelled to Dashwood's Friedsburg days. The only thing German about it he said was the sauerkraut. The students returned to their homes last weekend, but all hope to return some- day and will continue their travels. Mike and Jens both plan trips to California in the next few years and Mary Anne is hoping to return to the Exeter -area next summer. noted that some ex- penditures such as road gravel, were for the whole year.
