Lions exchange youths
say we're friendly bunch
Continued from front page
Mary Anne comes from St.
Michael in Minnesota. 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.

Should the Casket Be Open or Closed?
Th,, question can only be answered by the family,
never by The funeral director.
There ore several options available to the family.
The casket can be open during the hours of visitation
and closed during the final rites, or it can remain
open dvrnna the final rites. It can also remain closed
of all hmec
The customs of the family's faith and the influence of
their ctergyrnan s thoughts may help determine whot
is
to bn done
Modern: psychologists tell us that viewing the deceas-
ed helps the family accept the fact of death, es-
pecially when it may have been sudden or unex-
pected If however. the appearance of the deceased
cannot be made acceptable, viewing moy poss,bh' be
har
The family s own wishes on the desired procedure
will olswovs be the guideline for the funeral director
at our t'rn, We respect the family's wishes on'all
porficolo, of the funeral service. as we try our very
best to prc.w.,ie a truly personal and meaningful ser
