But one thing still puzzles me; the papers speak of the Supreme Court of Ont., the Court of Appeal of Ontario and the High Court of Ont. What is the difference? Yes, indeed it does appear as though we have three courts at the highest level in Ontario. In fact, we have only one court but it is divided into two branches. Thus, the Court of Appeal and the High Court ore the two branches of the same court: the Supreme Court of Ontario. The Court of Appeal handles appeals from the High Court and the lower courts, while the High Court deals with serious legal matters (eg,: rape and disputes over high amounts of money). Weekly Court, incidentally, is the name applied to the Supreme Court of Ontario when it sits somewhere outside Toron- to.

He went down to investigate and was pounced upon by a culprit hiding in the dark, in short order, the culprit was lying half dead on the floor with a broken back. My husband was a judo instructor. Is he guilty of inflic- ting grievous bodily harm? We all know that a man's home is his castle, The law recognizes a person's right to defend his or her property, self, or close relatives. One can only inflict as much harm as is necessary to defend his home or to defend lives. In other words, the defence must be proportionate to the crime. Fot example, you don't shoot mere trespassers. in defen- ding oneself, one must retreat as far as reasonably possible before turning to fight, One need never retreat from one's own property, however. Passive defences, like electric fences, traps, ate., must have clear warnings. Here, your husband is very likely innocent and Can use the defence of self-defence if he was, in fact, in fear for his life or property, Your local headquarters for FIREPLACES ACCESSORIES a d l 2354022 24 Hr.

Zurich fair tries early date weight of the calves.in the fall, which is 450 pounds each," This program was initiated in 1975 to stabilize the incomes of beef calf producers and to en- courage a continuing supply of Ontario-produced beef. Last year ,12,000 farmers registered 3000,000 cows and received net payments of $72 per cow, for total payments of $22.5 million. Agriculture and Food Minister William G. Newman has an- nounced the details of the 1976 beef calf income stabilization program. Speaking in the Legislature, Mr. Newman said the premiums for this year would he $5 per cow and the support- price would be 50 cents per pound, the same as last year. Enrollment closes this year on August 16. Only cows in the producer's possession as of June 22 may be registered. All con- tracts will expire in June 1980. The support price is calculated on 100 percent of the producer's operating cost. All beef calf producers and cream shippers in Ontario are eligible. Producers who participated last year will receive enrollment forms in the mail. New participants will be able to get forms from their agricultural representatives after July 12. Mr. Newman said that "although the price being sup- ported is that for calves, the payments are made on a per cow basis. "The payment is based on four factors," he said, "the support price for calves, which is 50 cents a pound this year; the weighted average market price for calves, which will be calculated from fall sales; the average number of calves from 100 cows, which when calculated for the whole province is 85; and the average Many share in Wintaria Grants totalling $12,713 have been approved for nine projects in Huron County from the pro- deeds of the Ontario Lottery. The amounts range from $5,000 to $250. The Corporation of the Village of Bayfield is to receive a grant of $5,000 towards the costs of the Bayfield 1976 Centennial cele- brations. A grant of $3,000 is to be made to the Huron County Public Library for the purchase of shelving materials and furniture for four libraries in Goderich, The "No Strings Attached" Puppeteers of Exeter will receive a grant of $1,500 to assist in the costs of touring performances in libraries, schools and play- grounds across Ontario to cele- brate the Cultural Olympics.

However, the date change will not affect the number of categor- ies available to enter. The Horse Show includes heavy horses, light horses, ponies and saddle classes with prizes totalling over $1,000. It takes place at 1:30 p.m. Satur- day. The cattle show is scheduled for 1:45 p.m. Saturday for regist- ered Durham, Hereford and Poll- ed Angus cattle as well as special prizes from local sponsors. The Zurich 4-H club will also be out in full force. There will be classes for ,sheep, hogs, poultry, bantams, pigeons and rabbits as well, Vegetables have not been for- gotten so those with early gar- dens stand a good chance of making some money as prizes are higher this year, Potatoes, beets, carrots, tomatoes, onions, turnips and many more vege- tables will be judged as well as grain and seeds, dairy products and eggs. The ladies will have a chance to demonstrate their skills in the baking categories, home-canned foods and special prizes offered, by local businesses. Perhaps one of the more interesting of the special prizes will be a working man's dinner of at least eight articles with cream, sugar and tea as one article, bread and 'butter as one article. Knitting and crocheting have not been forgotten with numerous categories including ladies' wear, children's wear, men's wear and linens. Both liquid and thread embroidery are also included. Other art works and crafts include oil paintings, felt work, stuffed toys, snapshots; needlepoint, driftwood arrangements, mac- rame, ceramics and handmade wax candles to name a few. A special Junior Homemaking class for girls 12 to 20 will give them a chance to show their baking and craft skills without having to compete with their mothers. Both the young and old will be looked after during Zurich's fair as the senior citizens and school children each have clues of their own. The senior citizens may 'enter any article from any hobby, with, each entry receiving a $1 prize. The school children will be kept busy making animals or characters from vegetables and fruit, making posters depicting fire prevention and getting their pots ready to show, Entries in the show house must be in by July 22 at 1 p.m. at the latest as they will be judged on the 23 and displayed on the 24. Complete category and prize lists are available at stores around town. A talent show on Friday even- ing features Pixie Mitchell and reaches as well as the crowning of the fair queen. About 25 entries have been received so far for the talent show, all local people. Girls between the ages of 16 and 21 who wish to enter the Queen contest should approach the businesses in town to get a sponsor, If they are unable to do so, they are to phone Mrs. Donna Klopp, 236-4675, and the fair board will sponsor them, The parade takes place at 12:30 Saturday afternoon featuring Earl Ross, the Ontario Queen of the Furrow and the Clinton Pipe Band. There will also be steam engines, antique cars, ponies and clowns and hopefully, a large number of decorated bikes, tricycles and floats. The parade will be lining up at the Catholic school grounds at noon. School children wishing to register for the parade may do so at the Hay Township Mutual.office in Zurich from July 19 to July 23, There will be a baby show and pony pulling contest Saturday afternoon in addition to a fairly large midway and the horse and cattle juding—lots to see and do. The fair will finish off with a dance Saturday at 9 p.m. featur- ing "Country Unlimited".

They came to playground on Wednesday dressed in costumes of Canada. Andrew Rabbets, Scott Lovie, Cristen Lovie, and Tracy Rabbets were some of the kids to participate.

Apart from the fact that he has me scared skinny and in spite of my pleas to drive at the speed limit I have now heard that if you accept a free ride from someone in his car, then he is not liable to you if you are injured in an accident due to his negligence. Is this true? According to existing law you have probably heard correctly, because the driver of the car is only liable to gratuitous (free) passengers where he has been "grossly" negligent (i.e. extremely careless). Otherwise, passengers are taken to ride at their own risk. (This does not apply to vehicles operated in the buSiness of carrying passengers for money (e.g. taxi) — proof of gross negligence is not needed in that case.) However if an accident occurred due to the sole fault of his ex- cessive speeding it could be construed to be Extreme Carelessness on his behalf, but as far os we can see it seems small consolation if you are involved in a serious or fatal acci- dent. Our advice would be to tell him to slow down or get yourself another driver! 489 Main St., Exeter 235-2533 s visit Rade Thaelt AND TROPHIES DEALER 50% OFF TROPHIES!
