NOTICE

siderable property damage in the event
of a fire occurring during a low water
pressure period.
In order to deter future tampering with
fire hydrants, the Public Utilities Com-
mission is offering a $100.00 reward for.
the arrest and conviction of any
unauthorized person caught opening or
tampering with a local fire hydrant.
The maximum penalty for this offence
is a term of one month imprisonment
or a fine up to $300.00.
Please report any information to the Ex-
eter Police Department at 235-1235.

What Every Family
Should Know
ONTARIO FUNERAL SERVICE ASSOCIATION
"Caveat Emptor"
This latin statement which
has become such a familiar
warning in our english ver-
nacular, loosely translated.
means "let the. buyer
beware•'.
It is why we have a Bet-
ter Business Bureau which is
able to certify ethical business
and service enterprises and to
give advice to consumers who
call. Ponder their slogan "in-
vestigate before you invest."
It is why we have groups
like the Canadian Consumer
who are in a non -biased posi-
tion to he able to test- to make
recommendations and offer
advice about goods and
merchandise.
These groups arm the
public with what should he
needed to help make a sound
decision about a major ap-
pliance purchase. about
medicine. about food stuffs
and services which affect our
way of life.
It night seem strange that
the Ontario Funeral Ser ice
Association should he spon-
soring it column w ith a
headline warning to let the
buyer beware for maybe there
could he the inference that the
public needs '`protection"
from the funeral director.
We don't think such is the
case. especially where we con-
sider the tact that out ot
60,0(X) funerals which were
conducted in Ontario in the
year 1983 the Ontario Board
of Funeral Services received
only 15 complaints and of
these 11 were financially
oriented and were received
from one arca
In our smaller com-
munities the funeral director Is
perhaps a long standing citizen
of his community. Perhaps he
is the second or third genera-
tion to provide this special ser-
vice to his townsfolk. He is
(or should he) a member of
a local church community and
should stand out as a person of
strong moral character.
There may not be the
closeness of contact in the
larger urban communities and
chances are the funeral direc-
tor of choice will practice
from a neighbourhood home.
In any event, the funeral
director is there to provide a
service in accordance with
long tradition and accepted
practice. His first concern is to
the families he will serve and
if he is to he able to serve them
he will need to establish their
confidence and good will.
It is not uncommon for
people to stop by and ask to
meet a funeral director and in-
spect his premises and ask
questions about his service and
his philosophy.
11 is one way to heed the
"investigate before you in-
sesC• admonition of the Bet-
ter Business Bureaus. A
funeral with accompanying
cemetery. newspaper. floral,
cremation charges does repre-
sent an expense.
The more you and your
family know and understand
about this expense. and the
value of sank, the better you
will he in a position to make
wise judgements.

tario Funeral Association is
there to answer any. questions.

Varna residents attend Turner picnic
By Mary (lima
The families of Eileen Con-
sitt, Elmer Turner and Ralph
Turner enjoyed their annual
picnic on Sunday, July 29 at
Stanley Township Park with
60 attending. A special guest
was their aunt, Mrs. Elva
Sanders of Clinton. Also pre-
sent were Edgar and Ruth
(Turner) Willert and their son
Adam of Innisfail, Alberta
who were here visiting with
relatives.
Jim and Kate Keys return-
ed home recently from an en-
joyable month-long trip to the
Yukon and Alaska in their
van. En route they visited
with Craig and Shelley Taylor
in their new home in Saint
Albert north of Edmonton,
were in Peace River and
panned for gold in Dawson Ci-
ty. They saw the Pierre Ber-
ton home, and enjoyed
readings of Robert Service
poems. They travelled the
"Top of the World" Highway
to Fairbanks, Alaska. The Al -
Can Highway was just about
what the stories say it is - full
of deep potholes and worse
than gravel roads.
They found Anchorage to be
a rapidly growing, busy city.
From there they came down
the inside passage by ferry to
Prince Rupert and went down
into the Fraser Canyon to
Hell's Gate. It was interesting
to see thefish ladders, etc.
and find out how they arrived
at the name Hell's Gate.
In Vancouver Jim and Kate
visited Hugh McBride, Barb
and Stuart (Keys) Barden
and Murray Torrance. they
came home by an American
route and spent some time
with friends in Boise, Idaho.
While there they experienced
a forty -degree drop in
temperature (from 102) dur-

proper methods of having a

in a demonstration. The
members completed a word
puzzle to find all of these
words which Lisa had
deviously hidden. Then, the
regular business of the
meeting was attended to. The
projects for each member
were discussed as well as
preparing a booth for local
fairs. The meeting was ad-
journed with the 4-H pledge
and Lunch was served by the
"South" half of the club.

ing one of their very infre-
quent thunder and rain
storms. Idaho City was in-
teresting to see, as it has
some similarities to Dawson
City in that it is being retain-
ed as a historical reminder of
gold rush days.
The salt mining at Salt
Lake City was interesting, but
the stockyards in Omaha,
Nebraska were a disappoint-
ment - they only sell cattle
there on Fridays, and much of
it is no longer used and is
deteriorating. Most cattle are
apparently ,gold at smaller
sale barns iA the surrounding
area now.
The Arnana Colony villages
in Iowa north of Highway 80
proved very interesting.
There are seven or eight
villages in a small area each
specializing in one product.
One has wineries, another
produces cheese, another
electrical appliances, smoked
meats, baked goods,
woollens, clocks and other
high quality furniture, etc.
The people are of German
descent, andalso farm 35,000
acres. The Keys came
through Chicago on their way
home.
Wilfred Chuter attended the

David Boyce in Dorchester on

A community shower is be-

next Monday evening at 8:00
p.m. in Huron Centennial
School.
An apparently rabid rac-
coon was seen at the northern
edge of Varna on Tuesday
morning. County employees
put it out of its misery and
threw the carcass into the
field. A neighborhood resident
buried it. There have been
several reports of rabid foxes
and coons in the area this
summer.
Please remember the
Varna -Goshen church service

next Sunday at 11:00 a.m. and
the picnic which follows
