Chamber of Commerce Annual Meeting At the Annual mooting of the Chamber of Commerce in the Town Hall on Thursday evening of last week, it was decided to memorialize the Dominion Government with the view of securing a i)ew Post Office in Exeter, the site for which was purchased previous to the war. Also a‘deputation consisting of W. G. Medd M. .L. A. and ex-warden B. W. F. Beavers, president of the Cham­ ber of Commerce, was appointed to go to Ottawa to interview the Post- master General and a request, that the Exeter Council send along with the deputation Reeve C. B. Snell. The suggestion was made that the; deputation take along with them ] pictures of the interior and exterior of the present post office. At the opening of the meeting, at which there was a fair representa­ tive gathering of the members pres­ ent, Mr. Beavers outlined the work of the organization since its incep­ tion last April. At the opening ban­ quet in April last there were 120 present, which was the biggest get- together of business men that Exe­ ter has had for some time, and the C. of C. started off with a member­ ship of 80. A couple of articles on the necessity of a clean-up cam­ paign appeared in the Times-Advo- ’ cate. Motor signs were put up with­ in a radius of ten miles, pointing the way to Exeter. Still more could be used. A meeting of all the mem­ bers was held in the Town Hall and committees for certain work were appointed. The Jubilee Celebration on July 1st was put on through the efforts of the sports committee of the C. of C. This was a big suc­ cess. The matter of a sight suit­ able for a tourist camp was consid­ ered. The logical situation for such a camp in the committee’s es­ timation is Riverview Park, because of the isolation, the water supply and the natural surroundings. A matter of the beautification of the C. N. R. depot grounds was taken up and the landscape gardener met a deputation of the C. of C. and the Horticultural society and promised some action. eeived that the scheme proposed would be too promised to try to work out some other scheme whereby some im­ provements td’ the grounds might be made. In October a joint .conven­ tion was held with the Women’s In- .stitute* who have -been the best sup­ porters the O. of C. have had, and a very profitable time was enjoyed. Three from Exeter attended the general meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of Western Ontario held at Walkerton and secured a lot of valuable information. A Santa Claus fund was started' and $48.50 was provide Don’t miss the big tea meeting in Main St. United church, Wed..

Complin also gave a splendid report and out­ lined some of the activities for fu­ ture consideration.. There was a live interest and good feeling in the meeting. All of the old officers were elected for another term and a vote of thanks was tendered them for the interest they have shown and the work accomplished. The citizens of Exeter are urged to show their interest and help along the good work by calling on the president or secretary and paying their membership fee of two dollars for the ensuing year.
