THURSD4Y, JULY 20, •1950 Village of Exeter • Seeks Town Status (Exeter Times -Advocate)" Clerk C. V. Pickard • will ask the Ontario Municipal Board to erect the Village of Exeter to a town. Council passed' a by -'law Mon- day night, July 3, to authorize the clerk to apply for a change in status. ' Application will not 'effect the boundaries of the municipality. ' The portion of Stephen Township to the south will not be included in the town. At their last meeting council considered annexing part of the township but they decided against it Monday night. Main. reason was the extra cost which council' felt would be incurred by an-, nexing the land. Council esti- mated more than $25,000 of work would have to be done on side- walks, sewers and water mains. Process of the changewill take more then three months. Before the Municipal Board will give the final order to incorporate the town, notice must appear in local and provincial papers for a period of three months. Population of the village, ac- cording to the latest count, is over 2,400, well over the 2,000 requir- ed for a town. With the change Exeter will be in the same cate- gory as Seaforth, Wingham, God- erieh and Clinton. , There will be an increase of three on the council with mayor, reeve, deputy -reeve, and six councillors. EW TELEPHONE RATES The Board of Transport Commissioners has ordered our first general rate increase in 23 years EFFECTIVE JULY 22, 1950 too, have gone up in price in recent years, and nearly all of them more than the revenue increase we asked for. The temporary rates now ordered by the Board give us only part of the revenue we require. If we are to continue towards our goal of providing service to all who want it, when and where they want it, we must receive the balance of the increase for which we applied. Although the cost of telephone service has finally gone up, when you think about it, the value of telephone service has gone up even more. In terms of convenience, security and friendly con- tacts, a telephone is worth far more than it costs I In accordance with an interim order of The Board of Transport Commissioners, telephone rates will be increased on July 22nd. These rates will apply until the Board makes a final decision on the application for higher rates that we made' last October. No one, of course, wants to pay higher prices for anything. Though our costs have been going up faster than our revenues for some time, we delayed applying for increases until it was clearly evident we could not continue to operate satis- factorily without higher rates. Most things you buy and the things we buy HOW TO FIND YOUR NEW RATE Look up your exchange area in TABLE "A". Its rate group appears beside it.. Below, under the cor- responding rate group column in TABLE "B", you will find the rates for the most widely used classes of service. If you need any information about other rates, please call our business office. You'll find the cost of telephone service has not gone up as much as most other things you buy. Its cost is still low - one of the smallest. items in your budget. Today as always your telephone is big value.
