Exeter council approved
the final steps for the es
tablishment of the new
police communication
system for Huron, Monday,
after being advised by com-
mittee chairman Ken
Ottewell that the town’s
capital cost will be $6,540.57.
Similar decisions were ex
pected to be made this week
by the councils in Goderich,
Clinton. Seaforth and
Wingham. with each sharing
the capital cost on a per
capita basis. The Ontario
Police Commission will pay
75 percent of the total cost.
Ottewell also announced
that officials from the five
towns recently approved a
maintenance contract with
Canadian General Electric
who will instal the system.
The cost to Exeter for that
contract will be $70.61 per
month.
The towns will share the
operating cost on a per
capita basis as well,
although no estimate was
given at Monday night’s
council meeting as to what
that amount may be.
While the police chief in
Goderich will serve as
“house foreman” of the
system, an administration
body will be appointed, be

It is expected that the new
system will be in operation

Ottewell also submitted a
new bylaw for regulating

It was a lengthy document
and after members had read
through some of the pages,
Ottewell presented a motion
that the bylaw be tabled to
allow members more time
to digest the Contents.
“It’s a good bylaw,” com
mented Councillor Harold
Patterson, and Ottewell said
in reply to a question that it
was similar to bylaws used
in several cities.
“We don’t need it in this
town,” Councillor Derry
Boyle remarked.

Lucan United
Church news
The Sacrament of World
Communion was celebrated
in Lucan United Church on
Sunday when Rev. Keith
Brown based his sermon
“The Reality of the Cross”
on the Hymn “There is a
Green Hill Far Away”. He
told the congregation that we
must keep our minds and
hearts firmly fixed on reality
that is based squarely on the
word of God. “God in Jesus
Christ came to this earth and
died pouring out his love for
you and me”, said Mr.
Brown.
The prupose for which
Christ died makes it real
today, in the 20th Century.
He died to save us all and in
His love and deep mercy
toward us, He took our sins
and bore them all himself.
His love today is free to all
who will accept it and follow
in His Way.
The plants in the Sanc
tuary were placed in loving
memory of Mrs. Alex Young

He spoke on the “Golden
Rule” and gave a very in

members saying to inspire
the Golden Rule we must be
friendly and kind to
everyone. “What we want
from others is what we
should give back,” he said
Mrs. Luther from Hensall

To experiment
with garbage
An experimental garbage
recycling program will begin
in Exeter next month, and if
local citizens cooperate, they
could end up saving a con
siderable amount of money
on dump maintenance and
garbage pickup costs.
Social services committee
chairman Lossy Fuller said
that her committee had met
recently to finalize plans to
have Thames Valley
Recycling pick up glass and
newspapers.
Owner Ron Hare predicted
the program could reduce
use of the local dump site up
to 35 percent.
While the firm will only
pick up glass and
newspapers, it was indicated
that other firms would be
interested in picking up
other types of refuse, such as
metal and rubber, if Exeter
instituted a program of
separating that type of
material.
The recycling program
will begin in November and
will be held on the same day
as the town’s monthly
special pickup. The west side
will be covered on the first
Thursday and the east side
on the second’Thursday.
Newspapers should be
either wrapped or placed in
boxes and glass should also
be set out in boxes. It can be
set out on the boulevard with
other refuse intended for the
special pickup, as long as it
is set apart.

will precede the town’s crew.
The only cost to the
municipality will be ad

GRANTON
The first meeting of the
“Happy Gang” for the fall
season was held in the
United Church basement on
Tuesday afternoon with Mrs.
Harold Westman presiding
and opening the meeting
with a welcome to the
members who were asked to
tell a little bit about their
various holidays.
When the answers were
put together, it sounded like
a travelogue from coast to
coast.
Mrs. Westman gave an
interesting account of the
origin of playing cards,
saying that they originally
came from China.
A minute’s silence was
observed in memory of the
late Anne Wilson who had
'passed away recently. A
decision was made to have
the Christmas dinner in
November and to have Unit 3
do the catering again. An
invitation to be the guests of
the Sunshine Club in Lucan
on October 18 at the Lucan
school was accepted.
The remainder of the
afternoon was spent with a
sing-song, card games and
crokinole, then refreshments
were enjoyed. Those
members with birthdays in
August and September and
having their names on the
birthday cake were, for
August, Edith Westman,
Grace Morden, Amelia
Jameson and Warren
Gregory and for September,
Anne Stevens, Ethel Eedy,
and Cliff McRobert.

Rev. Elwood Morden

ficiated at the service of
Communion, taking the
theme for his message “A
Band around the Earth.”
The drawing together of
every nation to partake of
the Lord’s Supper, so that all
could be one in Christ, is
celebrated on this day, and
perhaps it is the only thing
that will bring the world
together in a lasting peace,
noted the cleric.
At the Lord’s table, con
flict of war, hunger, and all
other deprivations makes all
these seem trivial, in
comparison to the great
Blessed Sacrament said Rev
Morden. No body is ever
alone when he is supping
with the Lord.
Sunday School pupils who
received attendance awards
were the following: Fifth

second bar, Kenneth

The Church service was
