Water Rate Revision for Customers• of the
Exeter Public Utilities Commission
The Exeter Public Utilities Commission has found that a rate revi-
sion will be necessary in 1988.
The Commission will be required to overhaul a municipal well and
in addition will continue its program to replace undersized older
water mains with larger main that will provide more adequate pres-
sure and reliability for residential and commercial customers and in
addition more adequate fire protection.
The last rate revision was in February 1986 and since that time all
costs have continued to increase..
To provide the necessary funds to upgrade the water system, a
4% increase in rates will be implimented with all cornmercial and
domestic bills rendered on or after March 31, 1988.
The following rate will apply to domestic customers and water at
31¢ per day Will still give customers excellent value with a daily in-
crease of slightly more than one cent. . .

Messengers to meet
Prayer Day at Thames Road
By MRS. WILLIAM ROHDE
The third Sunday in Lent church
service was in charge of the mini-
ster, Rev. Teddy Smits. We read
Psalm 89 responsively.
In his children's story the Rev.
Teddy Smits told about a nice shoe
store which was owned by a hard
working man, Mr. Anderson. One
fine day a few boys started throw-
ing stones aimed at the shop win-
dow. The window was broken,
with many cracks showing all over
the window.
Mr. Anderson wrote a big note
and pasted it over the broken win-
dow. The note read "The window
may be damaged but the shoes be-
hind the window are of excellent
quality".
Sometimes we get hurt in life,
behind the cracks is an honest char-
acter and a golden heart. -
Robert Bray read the scripture
lessons fro Isaiah 49:9-18 and St.
Matthew 27:1-26.
In his sermon, Mr. Smits spoke
on the text: "When Pilate saw that
he was getting nowhere, he took
water and washed his hands in front
of the crowd (St. Matthew
27:24)"
Pontius Pilate, the Roman proc-
urator for Judea, had made many
political mistakes, which compro-
mised him. One of the most crip-
pling mistakes was to have bor-
rowed money from the family
business of Amnias and Caiaphas.
When this small but powerful
clique wanted the quick death of Je-
sus, they needed the signature and
approval of Pilate.
The procurator could not find any
guilt in Jesus, but Caiaphas put a
lot of pressure on Pilate. Fearing
the end of his job and being sent to
Romc in disgrace. Pilate gives in.
He asks for a basin of water and
washes his hands, saying: I am in-
nocent! Pilate was used as a tool,
and never stood firm. Can you
stand firm under pressure?
Next Sunday March 13, we will
all be going to Elimville Church
to be at the service at 11 a.m.
