done their utmost to find accommo

families who wished to locate here
and at 'present there are ap

reeve and said he would serve as he
had in the past to the best of his
ability.
J. w. Hern
Councillor Hern stated that the
council had had a very busy year.
They may have missed the mark at
times. Six hundred yards of gra
vel, at a cost of $348 had been placed
on the streets and the streets were
never in better condition than they
tare today. The drains of the town
have given no end of trouble and
sooner or later Exeter will be con
fronted with providing an ample
drainage system. The fire hall had
been redecorated.
Herbert O. Southcott
Councillor Southcott thought that
the business of the town had been
well taken care of. The cemetery
was in capable hands and he paid
tribute to the officers,
pleasure and a privilege
sent the ratepayers.
B. Taylor
Councillor Taylor said
biggest part of his Work was to try
and secure accommodation for the
new families coming to Exeter. It
was a big job and had taken a lot of
time. A new Voters’ list had to be
printed this year and raised the
printing account. A grant of $200
had been made to provide some
comforts for the women’s dry can
teen at the airport.
W.». Sanders
Mr. Sanders took the council to
task for subscribing to the Victory
Loan. He said It was absolutely
contrary to municipal law for a
municipality to contribute money
for War work, The Exeter War
Committee had done a good job. It
was of no value to the government,
to buy War Bonds and dispose of
them again, he said. If equality and
democracy prevailed in Exeter a re

. He objected to
the money being raised in Exeter to
provide for pleasure at the airport
when our own sons and daughters
are sweltering from* daylight to
dark, If pleasures must be provided
no favoritism should be shown. He
also stated that it was 10 Q per cent
non-essential to provide rings for
the soldiers in the service. How can
it help when soldiers are crying for
ammunition to, show their rings to
Hitler? He made several charges
that members of the Council and
Board of Education were dipping
their hands into theirtthiic treasury
and perjuring themselves when they
took the oath of office, He accused
Mr. Taylor for supplying rings and
Mr. Tuckey for trucking calcium
chloride. One of the accusations
was levelled at the editor of the
Times-Advocate, a member of the
Board of Education, for printing
and supplies for the school.
The editor, on asking for per
mission to reply, stated that accord
ing to the revised statutes of Ontario
(Section 53) the Act does not ap
ply to a person by reason only of
his being the proprietor of -or other
wise interested in a newspaper.
A. J. Sweitzer
Mr, Sweitzer said that it was the
first time he had ever stood before
an audience. He was not a speech
maker but he was interested in the
welfare of Exeter, He would not
cause an election but if there was an
election he solicited the support of
his hearers.
Practically all of the speakers
.thanked the mover and seconder
who had placed them in nomination
and extended, season's greetings.
Mr. Tuckey, in his reply to Mr.
Sanders spoke of letters and cable

reference to the gravel placed on
the streets, his only regret was
that they had ,;not secured more
of it as the ' county engineer had
bought up for the county roads all
that was left.
Mr. W. C. Pearce brought up the
question of why should the Public
Utilities charge a double rate for
bwdro when accommodation was
afforded in a home for the new
comers to town. Mr,„, Tuckey ex
plained -that it was a ruling from
the Ontario H.E.P.C. Where two
families were using from one cir
cuit the additional power used
would entitle the users to the ex
tra power at the lowest rate per
kilowatt hour, so that the second
family would only be paying at
the lowest rate available, which was
unfair to the other users.
