MEMBER OF, THE ONTARIO FUNERAL SERVICE ASSOCIATION FUNERAL HOME 370 WILLIAM ST, 235-1220 EXETER I live in a new subdivision on the outskirts of town. About half a mile away there is a chemical plant and when the wind is blowing toward my house, especially on a humid day, the smell from that plant is terrible. Is there any way I can get them to stop the smell? It appears that if the remedy you seek is not one for compen- sation for damages which you may or may not be entitled to if there is a cause of action for nuisance, then you want to somehow keep the chemical plant from emitting the foul odour into the air which you have in common. There is a regulation made under the Environmental Protec- tion Act of Ontario which makes it an offence to cause or permit to be caused the emission of an air contaminant to such a degree as may cause loss of enjoyment of normal use of property. A foul odour is considered to be a contaminant under the Act. All plants which pollute the environment in Ontario, to avoid prosecution, must submit a cleanup program to the Ministry of the Environment. I suggest you contact the local office of the Ministry and ask them to pursue the matter for you. They will be in a position to ascertain whether or not the plant is in compliance with the anti- pollution laws of Ontario and are charged with the responsibility of seeing the Environmental Protection Act is enforced. ?4G42 FaCtepted4 1,4 Ocer Peeeawte 235-2533 489 Main St., Exeter Sp Stephen Printing Exeter, Ontario Letterheads 1, Envelopes • Business Cards s' Draw Tickets Complete Line of Offset Printing Phone 235-2442 Son T Pryde &Ltd. 293 MAIN ST.

I immediately turned it in to my boss, the department manager, and he, naturally, notified the police in case the owner tried to claim it. I figure I did the honest thing but I must admit that I was under the impression that if, after a period of time the diamond remained unclaimed then it would automatically become mine, however my department manager says no! that it would become the property of the store. Frankly I didn't believe him so I went and spoke with the store manager and to my amazement, he said the same thing. This does not seem to me to be fair. Is it? Fair or not, since the jewel was found on your employer's premises and during the course of your employment you were actually under a duty to report the find to your employer. The result of your legal relationship with your employer in effect, makes the employer the legal finder of the property. The Department Store is thus entitled the diamond, subject only to the rights of the true owner. 6.70 MID-SUMMER Clearance on BIKES. 237-3456 MOUNT CARMEL From $499. Limited Number On the first day of the month a Trust Company cheque is automatically placed in rely bank account. I made a mis- take and wrote a cheque for an amount $2.00 larger than my balance. This cheque was dated May 31st, so the bank marked it N.S.F. and refused to cash it, even though my regular cheque was due the next day. This was very embarrassing, and I think they were at fault because they know I always get my money at the first of the month. Can I take any action against them? Unfortunately you cannot, as long as you have sufficient funds in your account the bank is bound to honour the cheques you have written on that account. It is true that many banks provide over drafts for their good customers by honouring cheques when there is insufficient funds in an account, this practice, however, is usually a courtesy. The bank is under no legal obligation to do so. It seems that your bank manager was being somewhat short- sighted and unfair, he has however committed no legal wrong, Mrs. Frank Hicks gave a reading and conducted a muscial contest with Nancy Turner at the piano. Elaine Powe played the wedding march and Bonnie was escorted to the front of the room which was decorated with streamers and bells. The address was read by Mrs. Ken Greb and the gifts were presented by Ruth Ann Essery and Jean Buswell. Karen Skinner and Mrs. Hardy assisted in displaying the gifts. Pearl Buswell was in charge of the guest book. Bonnie expressed appreciation for the lovely gifts and thanked the ladies for arranging the shower and those who took part during the evening.
