T -A photo Extends thanks Open Letter to the People of Exeter and Surrounding District: Dear Friends: I wei[r]d like to express my thanks through the Times - Advocate. to the Board of Directors of South Huron Hospital. to the «'omen's Auxiliary. and to all of the general public. especially those who have been patients in our hospital over the past 22 years. Your kind letters have been greatly appreciated Having been in Exeter since October 9th. 1952. it is my per- sonal feeling, that the hospital has tried to serve this Com- munity to the best of its ahtli' It is interesting to note, that more than 5,380 births have taken place in this hospital, and we are presently seeing many of these youngsters _taking their places in the community as young men and women. As in every occupation, there have been many good and happy times, as well as some trying, and not so happy times, but -Owe all work together to create - lasting memories gathered''in those 22 years. In closing, may i convey again. my thanks for the many acts of kindness shown to me. and also convey my best wishes for a successful future for South Huron Hospital. Thank you. • • sincerely, Alice M. Claypole. Reg. S. agriculture in the Exeter area, I think our year-end reflection shouldn't overlook the particular plight of the farmer, not only here. but -everywhere. He was among the first to'feel the pinch of rising operational costs. Against these increases, he must try to balance production income, which hasn't risen proportionately and in some instances has declined. Like all of us, the farmer is now reviewing the past year and looking toward next year. He must attempt to forecast future demand which can be clouded by things like resistance to higher consumer prices, over which he has little control. As always, there are the ever-present un- certainties of weather affecting ields. There•s a lot at stake for each of us as the farmer weighs his plans for next year. His coming year's efforts will be reflected not only. in stores throughout our country, but in many hunger - plagued areas of the world. More than ever, he needs our support and understanding. For many years, his efficient production - unmatched throughout history - has gone nheralded 'as the bounty of his toils exceeded demand. Now as the scales appear to be con- tinuing to tip in the other direction we need a unified effort to help him regain a better balance. Let each of us pledge our in- dividual help in this important task as a New Year's resolution for 1975. Reflections To the Editor It's a time for reflection - a glance hack at the year just past and a look ahead to the coming year. An overriding concern about inflation dominates both since each of us has felt it per- sonally. Closely associated with Sincerely.
