Club leaders for this project are Sheryl and Mary DeBoer. Sheryl DeBoer greeted the members at the door and took their coats. Mary welcomed the members and the 4-11 pledge was repeated. The roll call was replaced by Dear member question. The question was, "What does the word etiquette mean to me?" The general answer was hav- ing good manners. A discussion followed on "Being a Host/Hostess," "Buffet setting" and the activity "Easy Chatter" was completed. Requirements for this 9-H project and additional information were discussed with the members. 1t was decided to get blue bristol board for the covers of project books. Elections for president and vice- president were held. The results are as follows: President- Sharon Boersma, Vice-president- Cathy Coates, Secretary- Rotating, Press Reporter- Rotating. The second meeting of Hurondale IV was held February 19 at the home of Mary'beBder. Next meeting will be March 5. The members did the Dear Member activity, "Considering Counts." Most rated as being very considerate persons. Manners begin at home was read from project book. Guidelines for get- ting along with your family were developed for nine different situa- tions. After the discussions on "You and the telephone," we enjoyed the refreshments Carrie and Paula brought. Cathy led a discussion with the girls about "Giving a party at home" and talked about who is responsible for clean-up. They talked about different invita- tions, what to do with RSVP and Regrets only. We answered the ques- tions on when a written or verbal thank you is required. The members were given cutlery and dinnerware, then were asked to arrange items for the menu provided. They were also shown what to do with fork and knife when meal is finished. The members answered the questions to "Mealtime visitors" and chose cor- rect answers to "Table Do's and Don'ts." We took turns reading "Hospitality at }tome" and "Rules for a Host/hostess." }tome activity was discussed with 4-1i members. Cathy will bring a drink and Shannon the snack for the next meeting. More details are sought Despite indications that lower prices were received, the present car- rier of the town's employee insurance package and the bank now handling the town's finances will probably get a renewal of their contracts for another three years. Terming the executive meeting held to discuss the proposals from the local banks and insurance firms "one of the more interesting meetings," Mayor Bruce Shaw advised council on Monday that the recommendation was to continue with the present firms. Ile indicated committee members had "flip-flopped" over the decision and some members may even have been expecting a different recommendation. "You've got to be kidding," Coun- cillor Gaylan Josephson commented when members were asked to accept the verbal recommendations without any details. He wanted to know why Mutual Life and the Bank of Com- merce were being recommended. Shaw said tnat in both cases, the savings to the town were "quite small" (in the range of $700) and the cost of moving the business could eat up those savings. Still unsatisfied—Josephson moved the matter be tabled until members were given more information com- paring the quotes and..tenders received. That motion whs approved. 6 SQUIRREL PR — Exeter's favorite squirrel, "White Wonder" is getting more famous each week. Tonight (Wed.) all B.I.A. members who attend the general meeting in the Old Town Hall will receive a plaque featuring the mascot and their business name. Ron Bogart, plaque designer shows off his creation to B.I.A. chairperson Karen Pfaff, right, while Susan Moore of the Feather Tick and Linda Wuerth of Wuerth Shoes look on. As well as being on display in Exeter's stores, White Wonder is featured on the Exeter Lions's Club's new pin and a new sign to be erected soon at the northern entrance to town. They have 'em in Olney! Exeter may not be challenged in claiming to be the white squirrel cen- tre of Canada, but the number of that local species will have to increase significantly to, capture the North American title. An Aylmer resident, Lorraine Bailey, after seeing Exeter's white Urbanites should accept farm ways Urbanites moving to the country have to accept normal farming prac- tises says Ontario's minister of agriculture. Jack Riddell was speaking on home turf last week at the 40th annual meeting of the Ausable-Bayfield Con- servation Authority held in Exeter on „February 28. The provincial agriculture minister was recounting some of the programs he has introduced in the almost nine months his party has been in office. Then he got on the topic of his pro- posal to toughen foodland guidelines. "Our prime farmland is one of our most precious resources and must be protected for this and future genera- tions," said Riddell. "One of the reasons we have toughened the foodland guidelines is becapse the time has come to stop the turban encroachment on farm land," he added. The agriculture minister also said it is time for farmers to also consider what they are doing by severing their land in small parcels. Another pro- blem, he said, is the second house on the farm property. While at first this house may be us- ed by the retired parents. they may eventually move to town and the house is sold. "And it's generally the urban per- son who buys the house," said Mr. Riddell adding that he doesn't blame them for wanting to move out to the country. However, he said, they usually have an idyllic -view of rural living and complain about the farm smells, corn dryers running all night or combines out in the field late at night. He did say there is another kind of farmland preservation. And that is preventing soil erosion. "In the southwest alone, intensive crop production over the past two decades has led to very serious soil erosion and degradation. Yields are down by as much as 30 percent with farmers' operating costs continually rising.,Financial,assistance an help over the short term, bu't (he lasting solution is to improve the productivi- ty of the soil," Riddell said. "That is done by adopting new soil conservation methods," he added. The agriculture ministry, through its local OMAF offices, is working with conservation authorities in the area of educating farmers to soil con- servation practises. squirrel promotion on TV recently, wrote to advise local officials that the white squirrel is also the emblem of Olney, Illinois. Ms. Bailey said she received two postcards from a friend from Olney which depicts the squirrels with the following notation: "Olney, Illinois, claims the distinc- tion of the only place so far as is known, where the white squirrel is at home. The first pair of white squirrels was brought to Olney in 1902. The original pair, one cream, the other white, were the ancestors of Olney's white squirrel population, estimated at 650. These squirrels are protected, fed and have become quite tame." Nis. Bailey concluded by saying that officials in Olney would perhaps be interested in knowing that Canada now has its own white squirrel population. CREDITON 4-H MEET The Crediton. 4-H Club met February 22 for their second meeting. They opened with the 4-H pledge and went on to select a club name. The new name is the Crediton Suzy - Q's.

At that meeting, council voted to advise the committee they wanted some type of restrictions, although none was specified. Monday night, committee secretary Brian Johnston appeared to explain the recommendation. He said it was the committee's intent to revert to the present bylaw which prohibits Page 17 trucks over 5,500 kg. from parking in residential zones. A proposal had been to use truck measurements in the restrictions but that idea has now been dropped. Johnston said, in effect, the new regulations being proposed by the committee would be the same as those in tor since the late '70s. "It should be very clear", he con- cluded, noting that the committee will probably approve the matter at their meeting later this month and it will be sent to council for their decision at a meeting in early April. "We're going back to what wehad before," Mayor. Shaw said to get final clarification and he was told that was the case. Home Activities. The third meeting was held March 1. After the minutes were read, members talked of Achievement Night. The m g was on banquets and introducin nd thanking guest speakers. Then they learned about different customs and habits. Also they learn- ed about eating out.
