Eli Coultis Mr_ Coultis stated that he was again in the •field and if elected would do the best he could. Nathaniel Ogden Mr. Ogden stated that it 'was the first time that he had appeared on the platform as a candidate for the municipal council. It elected he would serve without fear or favor. He does not intend to canvas for votes. t t He dere saw rea- .'ton ask - ell, he and was the field W. m. Armstrong Mr. Armstrong got a splendid re- ception. He was undecided whether he would stand or not. Jesse Elston Mr. Elston was the only member to speak on behalf of the Board of Education. He had been elected two years ago but had changed his mind with regard to school matters 1 since that time. Exeter has a trf' school that is a credit to the village. dren, Oen An additional teacher had been ad - around - eened to the public school staff and nix teachers the rooms are fill - parlor. Mr. and Mrs.' v'r of them crowded, so also Rex and Teem would be danger teeddenly spoke Ape- Ile still believed it esen fdl- rn'terest `of the town to have two rooms added to the school. The primary room is still in. the library and that building was never intended for a school room. Mr Elston claims that there is no high school in the county that has the record of the Exeter H. S. which is a credit to the staff. A large ercentage of the pupils come from the surrounding' townships. Last year the county' paid into the 11. S. over $8,200 for'tuition. In 1921 the school rate in Exeter was 17 mills, in 1922 16 mills, in 1923 14 mills, in 1924 12 1-2 mills, and this year 13 mills. The balance in the treasury this year.is about. $1,500 more than last or nearly two milds, Mr. Elston is again in the field. He paid tribute to Mr. A. E.

The informa- 'ron, would appear in the press and trer�one would know about it. Mr. Hawkins thought the question should be properly advertised. Ile said that anyone elected as councillor should have backbone enough to enforce any question for the moral benefit of the town. u . Ex -warden B. W. F. Beaveee was asked to give' his opinion. He said if' he were reeve he would try to carry out the wish of the people. He was in favor of having the ques- tion submitted to the people that the incoming council may have some guidance. Clerk Senior found himself in a difficult position, At the last meet- ing the council had decided against submitting such a question to the ratepayers on the ground that there was not sufficient time to advertise. Was it legal without the sanction of the council. W. D. Sanders said it was; that he had consulted two law- yers and that a questoin that was not binding could be submitted at any time. Mr. W. G. Medd thought the proper way was to petition the •council. Auditor Geo. Mawson said that it seemed to be the wish of those pre- sent that the question be submitted. He thought this was as strong as any petition.'He was in favor of the question being submitted. Mr. Hooper said the reason he had ob- jected to the vote being taken was because the people were not prepar- ed for' it. `There were people in town who knew nothing about the pool room. There should'be time to ad- vertise it an discuss the pros and cons. ' W. D. Sanders At the :conclusion of the meeting Mr. Sanders was given a few min- utes to reply to the other speakers. He referred to Mr. Hooper's state- ment that the town owned part of the ditch and read from the ditches and watercourses Act that the own- er of a ditch is the owner of the property' through which the ditch runs. ' He spoke of the odor and stated that it was illegal for anyone to drain anything that was injurious to health into an open ditch. The ditch runs through three municipal- ities. 'Usborne has a say whether we are blocking the water and Stephen what we put into it. As far as Mr.'Snell's property is con- cerned every property that is built up becomes 'a revenue producing in- stitution to the town. In conclu- sion he_said that Exeter has three men 'before them for Reeve; one who has given away the people's money, another who has received it and a third' who has fought hard to save it., When Mr.' Sanders had finished the chairman `asked all who were not ratepayers • in Exeter to leave the room while the vote was taken as to whether the question of the pool room should be submitted to the people and the vote was practically unanimous in favor of doing so. F. Delbridge IS A VOTE AGAINST THE POOL ROOM AND IS A VOTE FOR GOOD' CITI- ZENSHIP AND A LIVE VILLAGE: Mark your X opposite the firet name on the ballot, A Happy New Year to all TO THE RATEPAYERS OF THE VILLAGE OF, EXETER Ladies and Gentlemen: The principals upon which I am soliciting your support are Faithful and honest service, strict obedience to the will of the people, just and legal expenditure of pub'- lic funds, taking careful into con- sideration the time limit of the earning power of our citizens, with a view to holding them as citizens of our town and to encourage oth- ers to become citizens, which can only be done by keeping the taxes to a reasonable amount, and at the same time maintain • the present standard of improvements. Wishing you all, a very happy. and prosperous New Year. 1 am Yours Sincerely W. D. SANDERS Candidia°te fol. Reeve for 1926 Mr. Delbridge stated that he had heard that Mr. Fuke was not going to stand' again for the Board of Ed- ucation. He had been asked on dif- ferent occasions to stand and this. year -he had consented and had filed this qualification papers. C. 13. Snell Mr. C. B. Snell, a candidate for the Reeveship, was the last speaker to be called. Mr. Snell said that the citizens had known him for 40 years as sober, industrious, honest and one who had stood for the moral uplift of the community. He had been approached by more than ever this year to stand for reeve. He had been accused of being the. most expensive man to the munici- pality. This year money had been spent to improve his property but 75 per cent of the money had been spent in Exeter. The working men had been helped by It. Every elti- zen knew the'condition Of the drain. It Was obnoxious to Exeter. The improvements made 'were .for the benefit of Chas. Snell but the whole town had profited by It. If all the laboring men, mechanics, electric- ians and business men who had pro- fited 'by his building voted tors him he would be elected sure. If elect- ed he would put forth every effort to irnprove the town, morally and Otherwise. Rev', W. E. Ciysdale started the ball rolling when he asked Mr. Snell 'Where late stood on the Peel room question. Mr. Snell said he Stood nn the tight tilde of all moral hues - tions. This did not Satisfy Mr, Olysdale, who wanted M'r. Snell to declare himself. Voices from the Audience objected `while ethers prose sed the veetie>n, and commotion.. reigned. Mr, J. Pistol, ,see to lits feet and TO THE RATEPAYERS OF THE VILLAGE OF EXETER Ladies and Gentlemen I wish to thank the electors for the support given me in the past.

The mall this, year Wes about the heaviest tlzat.has' been received in Exeter but .it was handled smoothly with little or no complaint. The heaviest days were on the Monday and Wed- nesday, previous; , to Christmas. and on these days the office staff was almost 'swamped. People realized the importance of getting their mail off early and on Christmas morning there, was not the usual stack of parcels and letters,' most of the mail being fairly well cleared up for the holiday.
