This visit so far, and look- ing at the surface of the town only, I found it more welcom- ing than ever. Perhaps this is a sign of the beginning of old age, drawing me back to My childhood haunts, but I hope it is not only that. Let me congratulate all those who have contributed in making Exeter one of the nicest, cleanest and prettiest towns we have been into so far in our 2000 miles of travel in the past two weeks. Mollie and I think you have all made a great effort with the village comforts and are impressed -by the little nooks of pleasure beside the Hydro office and the town office. We think the parks are great and most of all we think the job around the Old Town Hall and Library have transferred what in my mind at one rme belonged to the dump into something everyone should be proud of. We were both to see bowls on 4loadOreenbeing *Atilt ht sIs eething you do net see in the$ritish Isles.

Dear Mr. Editor: Is it possible to defend a woman in this country Canada without the matter becoming involved in so- meone elses politics? On behalf of Mrs. Young the language of the Board of Ed sounded as if they had decid- ed on a lynching or a stoning.

As a group we answered the roll cal which was "Report on how your projects are pro- gressing. Two vegetables of any kind that you have brought in. Name them? Or 2-4 types of flowers for flower arranging you brought in. Name them." Our leaders told us what we could do for our special pro- ject to show at Achievement Day, such as a weed collec- tion, flowers for flower ar- ranging and pictures of our home beautification project, etc. • The leaders discussed with us how we were to complete our project books and hand them in and complete both garden and home -farm beautification project and finish the reports on them for the next meeting. Also we have to work on our individual projects for Achievement Day. As a group we discussed how to land- scape, how to judge and ex- hibit vegetables, and how to make flower arrangements. Each member made a flower arrangement. The next meeting will be held on August 1 at Mrs. Jean Crawford's. It will be our outing, and we will go and view each others gardens.
