EXETER TIMES OFFICE ADDRESS Date Born, day of in the year Western nixes' London, Ontario @Arts and Sciences medicine Fall Term Opens October 4th FOR INFORMATION AND CALENDAR WRITE K. P. R. NEVILLE, Regristrar At a meeting of the Huron Coun- ty Temperance Executive held in Clinton on Friday of last week, it was decided to immediately circul- ate petitions asking the Dominion Government to bring Huron County under the Ontario Temperance Act, and thus have a uniform law thru out the Province. The C.T.A. (or Scott Act) had been very satisfactory during its enforcement, the last six years, but it will relieve the County Council of some Financial responsibility, and the License Board of Commissioners of the Province are willing to as- sume this responsibility if the O. T. A. is accepted. The Ontario Temperance Act is a splendid piece of Legislation and in many respects is more restricted than the C.T.A. and the fines much more severe. The C.T,A. will not however be repealed but merely suspended, (as local option is now in many places) and should the Provincial law be set aside at any future time k3[ttron County would again be under the C.T.A. To secure the suspension it will be necessary to get a petition of at least twenty five per cent of the el- ectors and the local workers will organize at sacs for Ale cairipaignt J The vote on. the Referendum deal- ing with "Importation of Liquor" has been delayed till April 18th, 1921, to secure an up-to-date voters list. Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Anderson, and Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ash, of Thedford, visited with Rev. and Mrs. Foote, at the manse this week.

Mr. Jack Hurdon, of Buffalo, who has been holidaying in Exeter and Grand Bend for the past two weeks, returned to Buffalo on Monday morn- ing. A heavy rainstorm passed over the community east of town on Friday of last week doing considerable damage to the crops: The corn and grain in some places was flattened to the ground, The Aux Sauble river was raised by the rains to a considerable extent. While Main street at the north end of the town is closed, autos and rigs have been 'coming thru the river on William street.
