EXETER Calling his
fellow councillors a
"bunch of dictators,"
Exeter's Reeve Si
Simmons left a council
meeting last week and
resigned from his
position.
Reeve Sim coon's. action
came after Exeter
council finally passed the
controversial property
standards and main-
tenance bylaw. He had
been vehemently opposed
to the standards bylaw
since it was first con-
sidered, a move which
was undertaken by
council to meet the
requirements of the
ministry of housing to
facilitate a provincial
loan of $150,000 for
downtown restoration
and beautification for the
Business Improvement
Area (BIA).
At the. special meeting
of council, Reeve Sim-
mons presented a motion
that the bylaw be ap-
plicable only for the area
under the jurisdiction of
the BIA.
"I am not going to have
it (the bylaw) on the
whole t6wn if I can help
it," Reeve Simmons told
the Exeter Times -
Advocate in an interview.
"This town doesn't need a
standards bylaw period."
Council, however, did
not;' agree with this and
Reeve Simmons only had
one supporter for his
motion, Deputy Reeve
Don McGregor.
Other members
suggested that the reeve
was" being premature in
th tt' they had not even
received their amended
copies from the planning
board.,

'following the special
session planning board
member Don Cameron
said that the bylaw had
been toned down con-
siderably and said it was
basically concerned with
safety aspects.
BIA chairman Bob
Swartman agreed with
the principle of the
bylaw, but noted that it
must be missing
something, in . reference
• to the. objections against
it. He also warned council
that if the bylaw was
turned down, it could
mean the end of the BIA.
According to Reeve
Simmons, he had more
telephone calls from
citizens over the bylaw
than. on any other item of
business with which he
had been involved as a
member of council during
his various terms.
• The Reeve said it was a
bylaw to restrict people's
rights, and while he said
he realized that BIA
required it to receive
their loan, he wanted it
only passed for that area.
"We should take it
slower ' and see how it
operates," he said.
When council passed
the. motion the .bylaw,
Reeve Simmons stated
that council couldn't ram
it down his throat. As he
left the room Reeve
Simmons stated that he
had fought for freedom
during the war and the
,bylaw was an erosion of
those freedoms.

Jottings from St, Joe l
Here are some of the
Grade 7 and 8 students'
impressions of their trip.
to. the King, Tut
Exhibition in Toronto on
November 18,1979:
I thought that the
pieces on display were
fantastic. • By the way,
they were made, they
must have loved the boy
king. The pieces were
carved and molded by
hand even to the finest
detail.
.t The pieces I liked the
most were the mask
which as, it came into
view it was all I could do
to keep myself from
running over 'to it, the
buckle with a warrior
returning from battle, his
_hound running beside his
chariot.
I found it was worth the
long trip. --Lori Schmidt.

My impression of the
King Tut trip is that it
was so beautiful and all
the little details it must
off took them year to
make them. I wounder
how they can do it so
good. There was a white
Lotus thallic was carved
by a single piece of
alabaster and there was a
folding chair made out of
leapords skin. I just
wounder how they can do
it every thing so
beautiful.
I also learned a lot.on
this trip to King Tut. I
liked the ' way they
displayed. I wounder how
'every piece was detailed

I went to the King Tut
Exhibition. I thought it
Was really wonderful All
the things there• were
fascinating. I thought the
golden mask that #was
placed on King Tut's head
when he was buried was
the most beautiful thing
there. It was all solid
gold. -
I really enjoyed the
King Tut Exhibition and
if I was ever given a
ticket to go see it again, I
would even sacrifice
giving the ticket to
someone else so they
could go see it and enjoy
the beauty of it the way I
did.—by Patti Wheeler

Our school tour of the
King Tut Treasures was
magnificent. We saw
things like his headrest
and two chairs which he
really used. Also their
where things like the
model boat which he
would use in after life.
But best of all was the
golden mask which fit
over ' the mummy
wrappings. Its shine
could be seen rooms
away. It sure would be
nice to be able to go on
that trip again.—by Brian

I thought the King Tut
Exhibit was really good.
It had King Tut's mask,
his game, and chairs. I
like most of the things
that were there. Most of
all I liked the mak that
was there it was twenty
three and half pounds of
pure gold. I- also liked the
,dagger, it was also gold.
If the King Tut treasures
ever came back to
Canada I would go back
for sure because it worth
the while to see King Tut.

I learned a lot on the
trip about other people's
history and their religion.
Although I can not read
hieroglphhics the little
pictures interested me a
lot. When I got to the
mask it was a lot better
than you could ever see
on a picture.
Rut some of the small
things where master-

needed a magnifying
glass to see all the little
details. It was an ex-
perience I will never

I thought the King Tut
display, . was a very in-
teresting exhibit of ar-
tifacts that showed -how
advancedand •civilized,
the egYptailis were over
3000 years ago, 'It talso
showed how the ancient
egyptians honored thier
king and thier gods in the
designs imprinted on
even the smallest and
most delicate articals.
The display in many
ways expressed thier
belief in the after life, of
