The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1929-11-21, Page 2THURSDAY, NOVEMBER et, 1029' THE EXETER TIMES -ADVOCATE 50 YEARS AGO On. Monday last Mr. T. Bissett of this place, sold a handsome span at draught horses to Mr. White, of Rogcrvi.11e for a good price. On Monday last there were 1,000 turkeys shipped from Exeter station for the Old Country, Of this nuns- ber Mr, James Pickard :supplied 400. On Saturday afternoon Arr. Jos. Case, of Hay, was sitting in a buggy opposite Mr. B. V. Elliott's law or- rice, when his horse made asudden Start and threw him out. The horse ran as far as the Iiolsons Bank where it ran against Mr. John Drew's team which was tied, scratching the side •of one of them and Causing them to break the tongue of the wa- gon to which they were attached. Mr. Case was not much injured in the fall. Won at Last During the last two weeks con- siderable interest has centred in the shooting matches for what is known as the Dyer Cup, which has been in possession of the Exeter Gun Club for several years. Up to the Pres- ent year, however, the members were allowed merely to hold the. Cup, but early in the present season they determined that it should he - come the property of any nlelnber° who could win it six successive times. .Each member became anx- ious to become its owner, but the fortunes of the gun varied, and none of them was fortunate enough to beat six opponents in succession un- til M1'. John Heywood, of Usborne, undertook the task and on Saturday'. last he defeated the sixth. man, Mr. Thomas Bissett, by no means a mean competitor, as the various matches at which 11e has .been winner attest. In fact, he is considered the crack shot of the neighborhood. As the contest was to decide whether Mr. Heywood should own the cup, the interest was excited to such a pitch that a large number of spectators visited the ground to witness the shooting. The two men were ties ,until the last bird which Heywood killed and Bissett missed. The score was Bissett 7 and Heywood 3, The following Is the list of the matches Which Mr, Heywood has -t:ontested for the Cup: Heywood 9, Simpson 8; Heywood 7, Lake 3; Heywood 8, 13issett S; Heywood 6, Bright 5; Heywood 7, Fairbairn 5; Heywood 8, Bissett 7. In the evening the baud was. en- gaged, and a procession being form- ed, AIr. Heywood was conveyed home by a number of friends in the vil- lage..They were cordially reeeived and un excellent spread laid before then,, to which ample justice was done. A „umber of neighbors eome to assist in the rejoicing. Mr. Jas. Oke was appointed chairman and song and speech passed away the ev- ening very pleasantly until the near approach of morning warned them to leave. Those who distinguished themselves in singing and speechify- ing on the occasion were, F. G. Simp- son, .Jas. Oke, Win. Iiyndman, Wm. Bowman and Geo. Mace and the Misses Heywood also added to the pleasure of the evening by singing. After a final toast to Mr. Heywood, drank in his excellent cider, the company separated.

Only those who are commonly re- ferred to as having "more money than sense" throw their money away. All others are careful to see they do not get the worst of any bargain. But one has to be able to look farther than the end of his nose if he is to .be sure that he is getting his money's worth. That is the_ctefence of those who buy outside their community, in- stead of patronizing hone merchants. This is old theory, the resi- dent of any community makes, (through extensive buying,) the low price possible. Then increased patronage to their• merchants gives talose same merchants a bigger haying opportunitiy, thereby maintaining a lninimun price for good standard merchandise. The price buyer always, thinks ate is looking out for No. 1 and he says it is not his fault if the merchant in his community is not malting any money and is forced out of business. Ise, overlooks the fact thee he is likely to be as hard hit as anyone else when the mer- chant closes his doors, but it is a 20 to 1 shot that the buyer is tee one who loses, and all because he did not believe in his com- munity merchants sufficiently to support thm. You never bought anything for nothing in your life. Don't try it now. Think it over. orrnamirerwararre SANDY ELLIOT USED CARS FORD NEW CARS WE SPECIALIZE ON FORD SERVICE TELEPHONE 64 N. W.
