The readers write
Dear Editor:
, Not a stronger long!
Having moved here recent-
ly as a stranger I was
delighted with the 'Welcome
Wagon' visitor, who was
friendly and most gracious as
she presented me with gifts
from 34 merchants. Some of
these I might not have ever
met.
This to me is great public
relations for an aggressive
busy town like Exeter. There
was also letters from our
Page /
Mayor, library, map of town,
police force, post office, f
department, recreation,
Ministry of Transportation,
Jack Riddell M.P.P. and
places of worship.
These are valuable guides
when in doubt. Last but not
least, there was a six month
subscription to the Exeter
Times Advocate.
I do appreciate the
generosity of all.
Sincerely,
Jay Ball

Good Business
Your insurance might easily cover the full cost
of repairs — but will it.
Pay fur Lost inventory? Will it pay for
your fixed overheads? And perhaps most
important, will it pay for lost profits?
To find out where you stand talk to one
of the I.B.AO. insurance brokers listed below.
Is there a difference between an I.B.A.
broker and an agent?
Yes there is. An agent works directly for one
insurance company. An I.B.AO. broker is
independent and unbiased.
Your broker is able to choose a policy
that gives you the right coverage at the right
price...making sure you're not under -insured
orover-insured and that your interests are
well represented when you come to making
a claim.
So call your broker and ask if he or she
is a member of the I.B.AO.
