Eyesight is something most of
us take for granted but it is one
of our most precious
possessions. So take care of your
eyes. Be aware of eye hazards
and take precautions to protect
yourself. On the job or on the
snowmobile trail, wear
protective goggles.
SOME DO'S AND DON'TS
FOR EYE SAFETY
Wear your goggles or shield
when working.
Keep your eyes out of line of
work in case a tool should break.
When opening containers that
hold acids or other type liquids,
be sure your face is turned away
from the top of the container.
In grinding operations try to
keep your face a safe distance
from the work area,
If you must remove your
goggles and you are working
with power tools, be sure the
tool is turned off.
Never wear cracked, pitted or
damaged goggles or -spectacles;
Turn them in for a new pair.
Do not engage someone else
in conversation while working
with power tools. Keep your
concentration on the job at
hand.

eyes with dirty hands which
might have some chips Or

If you feel your eyes
becoming straified, stop and

FIHST AID
RJR EYE INJURY
If something gets in your eye
do not rub it! Chances are there
are medical or first aid people
available and they should be
consulted immediately.
If you have no course but to
try and remove the particle
yourself, you may try the
following:
Should you feel irritation
beneath the upper lid, pull this
lid down over the lower lid arid
attempt to roll your eyes
upward. The natural tearing of
your eye, plus the pulling down
of the lid should remove most
particles which are not
imbedded in your eye.
If the lOwer lid is involved,
pull the lid forward and down to
expose the particle, In this
manner the particle may be
removed with a clean
handkerchief or with a sterile
cotton on the end of a
matchstick or similar object.
Needless to say, it is common
sense never to touch the eye
with anything that is not clean.
If you cannot remove the
particle easily, see a physician
immediately. You run the risk of
permanent injury if you don't.
In between the time the
particle is lodged in the eye and
a physician is consulted, it is
best to wash the eye with water
and cover with a cold compress.
Should you happen to get
acid or an irritating chemical in
the eye, flush the eye at once
with plenty of water.

"I didn't say this. The Bible
says it . . . I really believe what I
preach."
To those who attended the
FAITH AND LIFE CRUSADE,
March 22-29, in the Zurich
Community Centre, these
statements typify the positive
type of Christianity Pastor John
S. Shrier of Waterloo, Ontario,
preaches and believes.
Christianity, according to
Shrier, is riot outdated. All you
need to do is read your Bible for
yourself and see how relevant it
really is. Few people know how
happy they could be if they
were willing to try the Christian
requirements demanded by
Christ and be "saved."
Within the above context, the
Crusade audienced sermons on
such topics as, "The High Cost
of Discipleship", "The
Contribution of Rock to the
Youth Revolution", "The Truth
About Miracles", and "When
will Christ Return?" Through
these sermons, positive notes of
the certainty of happiness in
Christ pervaded each evening of
the Crusade.
Being "saved" is not the end,
Shrier indicated time and again.
A Christian role is to be a
disciple. The cost of discipleship
could mean losing friends and
esteem in the community but
there is no middle road in
today's society. A Christian
must live Christianity in all areas
of his life.
Shrier questioned the defence
of good in rock festivals. Since
youth music today is an
"anthem of revolution" and
rock festivals are structured
around "rock," a Christian could
not be a participant,
The wrongs in rock festivals,
such as those held recently in
New York and England, as the
evangelist sees them, are;
immorality, violence ("how can
you say there is no violence
involved when kids blow their
minds?") drugs ("drugs are
bondage"), and all the
revolution behind external
symptoms such as drugs and
Zurich_
hair, Shrier strongly feels that
kids don't believe in what
they're doing. They only want
to throw an element of shock at
the establishment. ,Contrary to
the belief many kids have that
they are free in this kind of
setting, Shrier would say that
they could only be free in
Christ.
How can you help but believe
in miracles when you actually
see them happen? Shrier related
several "explosions of
Almightiness" he had witnessed.
Probably the most influential
miracle in his own life was the
phenomenal healing of his
father, who is presently active as
a lay evangelist, after being
bedridden for ten years with TB.
However, miracles can be
spiritual as well as physical.
George was such an example
who personally testified of a
complete release from
alcoholism after admitting the
power of Christ. Shrier would
suggest these and numerous
other examples, like converts
from TEEN CHALLENGE,
would be proof of God's power
through miracles today.
In his last sermon, Shrier
outlined various signs which are
presently occurring that point to
the return of Christ. Famine,
earthquakes, materialism and a
spiritual awakening (such as on
many campuses on this
continent, and in Indonesia)
would verify his conclusion that
Biblical prophecy is being
fulfilled. In light of this, Shrier
pleaded that Christians "occupy
until He comes."
A community spirit was felt
throughout the Crusade. All area
churches participated in
planning and in setting up the
programme. An encouraging
note for Christianity was felt
when Protestants and Catholics
alike not only attended but also
participated in the community
project, Shrier finds this a
noteworthy accomplishment.
In light of the interest shown,
how could Christianity be
irrelevant?

The province will pay an
additional $125 million to help
local authorities hold or reduce
property taxes this year,
Treasurer Charles Macieaughton
revealed in his 197U budget.
The $125 million continues
the staged program toward
provincial-municipal tax reform
which was outlined in detail in
Ontario's 196e white paper.
It covers new or increased
grant programs in education,
roads, servicing projects and
regional government; the cost of
provincial assessment and the
initial step toward broadening
the municipal tax base.
For the first time,
municipalities will be able to
collect revenues from
universities which previously
were exempt from property
taxes, The province will provide
$2.5 million in grants, equivalent
to $25 per full-time pupil, to 17
cities wnich service university
properties.
The interim tax formula of
$25 per student will be replaced
by the normal method of taxing
when university properties have
been evaluated under the
province's reassessment program.
The government's long-run
plan is tf? pay full' local taxes on
—xii1VoiSbi"treg la l
agencies and the institutions it
supports. The program will be
phased in as revenues become
available to finance it.
The ' government will also
establish a new loan fund of $10
million for municipalities, with
populations under 10,000,
through the Ontario Municipal
Improvement Corporation.
