Beavers was in the chair and in the absence of the ssecretawy, J. M. Southcott was ap­ pointed secretary pro tern, A vote of sympathy and regret was tendered our townsman, Mr. M, ■_G. Rausfonl, in the loss he sustain­ ed t»y the recent fire, coupled with the hope that he may continue as a businessman of town. An* invitation was received from the Sarnia Chamber of Commerce to send a- representative- to the second annual Ontario Michigan Goodwill voyage and it was decided to send the Secretary, Mr. M. R. Complin. It was decided to sponsor U First of July Celebration’-and a committee was appointed to meet with, the exe­ cutive of the Baseball Association to make the arrangements, mittee comprises E. R. O. southcott, s. Taylor Elliot. Mr. p, H. Fleming, of the ! Bowler Chicago Company,, supply contractors, addressed gathering on the questions of a wa­ ter supply for Exeter from deep wells, With the tank, main, etc., already installed the job in Exeter is about half done. About all that is needed is to sink a well or two and turn the water Cjnto the mains. After sinkink a well a motor driven pump with automatic control is in­ stalled and the only attention is to drop into the station once a day to keep the machinery properly oiled. Exeter at present has about 300 customers paying an average of $5.- 50 a year for water, With the number of families in Exetei* and 300 cus­ tomers and a water rate of $1,00 a month it should practically pay for the installation of the new system. That means that improved water conditions would not add one mill to the -dollar in the taxes. Persons ■who now pay from $5.00 to $6,00 for an impure' water supply would receive pure water foi* about twice the amount. In computing the price for supplying water the com­ pany secure all the information available and then guarantee to pro­ cure whatever amount of water is Stipulated, build pump-house install ail the necessary equipment for a definite price. No water no pay. At the close *ot~the Addresses Mr. Fleming showed three rolls of mov­ ing pictures showing the plant of the company, the method of drilling and equiping wells which proved very in. teres ting. Permanent Roads s.Mr. Clark, engineer, addressed the gathering on the question of perma­ nent roads for the back streets of Exeter. His propositon was to lay a bituminous penetration pavement, a medium priced pavement. -- This would be done by taking off some of the present crown and putting in four inches of 2^ inch stone. After levelling, and rolling a course of penetration asphalt is heated and sprayed into the stone with forced pressure. To this would be added Clandeboye Mrs. J. Lewis who died recently at the home of her brother James Mor­ gan, second concession, McGillivray, was formerly Margaret Morgan. She was born in McGillivray, and all her life has beep spent here.

The cost would be^about $600.00, The new road Would give the ..town something per- ^R^nent whereas now it gets little in .mopey ^expended. Mr. Beavers thought If nent roads could be put down at T? less cost than we are at present pay­ ing it would be good business. Dr. Roulston asked if there were any roads in the community of the same type that had been down for ten years, and was -informed that the road from Mitchell to Sebringville had 'been down since 1919 ox* 1920. Reeve Snell was asked how many miles of road within the municipality and was informed that there are 17 miles, two miles of which are paved. Last year $400' had been spent on the roads outside of the roads'*, pro­ posed to’ be paved, this being more than had been spent on them for years. Fully 90% of the traffic is over the roads proposed'-to1 be paved.- Cleaning River Above Dam Mr. Weatherstone, of Alisa Craig, was asked to address the gathering re cleaning the river above the dam.
