abiding • he saw that the
house of the Lard needed
reconstruction and had it
done, and the book of laws of
the Lord was found. Josiah
realized his people had not
been following the laws and
he made the people change
their ways of evil and
worship of idols.
Rev. Anderson feels our
whole world could be com-
pared to that time, with the
unrest of upheaval of wars
and murders that are so
prevalent today - perhaps we
all should get back to
reading our Bibles for com-

The Catholic Womens

evening at the Alhambra

call. President. Roberta
Walker presided And thank-
ed the ladies for their help in
selling tickets on a quilt raf-
fle. A letter from the group's
adopted family in India, and
the minutes were read by
Thea Stokkermans.
Guest speaker was Sister
Emily Gagner. of the St.
Joseph's order, London.
Sister Emily has been ap-
pointed by Bishop Sherlock,
to bring about a program of
religion classes to renew
Catholic faith. The work is
done in the rural areas
where there are no Catholic
High Schools. The first
series of classes are ex-
pected to prepare some
adults to teach High School
students religion at a later
date.
Sister Emily pointed out
that the young people
receive little or no religious
instruction and guidance
after they leave Grade 8. She
said many young people
seem to be lost in searching
and they need something to
believe in. There is a great
interest shown in this series

Tough new laws will deter trespassing.
wde helping
to protect you
your property.
Immos se•Nmeeme.
F or nearly 150 years Ontario has
had a law making it an offence to
enter property where entry is
prohibited. But now new legislation—
The Trespass to Property Act—has
toughened up the law to protect
your rights.
Trespassers can now be fined up to
$1,000. In addition, they can be ordered
to pay for damages they have caused.
An important part of the legislation
designates premises where entry is
prohibited without notice. These
include your gardens, orchards,
vineyards, land under cultivation,
woodlots and fenced land.
Where notice must be given to
prohibit entry, you may use red
markings on gates, trees or fences.
Yellow markings may be used to caution
that only certain activities may be
permissible. It is the responsibility of
the visitor to find out what you permit.
LAND USED FOR RECREATION
In the past, there was a great deal of
confusion regarding your responsibility
to people you allow on your land.
Consequently many farmers and rural
landholders would not allow recreational
activities on their properties.
Now another new act— The Occupiers'
Liability Act—reduces your responsi-
bility. In a nutshell, the law assumes
that those who take their recreation on
most rural land without paying a fee

will take care for their own safety.
A special system has been devised
to allow you to easily indicate which
activities you will allow on your
property. A sign naming or graphically
representing an activity (for example,
hiking) indicates that the activity is
permitted. The same kind of sign with
an oblique stroke through it means
that you prohibit the activity.
These new laws are part
of a continuing program to
streamline our legislation.
By clarifying your rights,
they afford you greater
protection from trespass
and also reduce your
liability when you make
land available for
recreational purposes.

BY MARY ALDERSON
For some reason, my
parents have decided that its
time I got all my
paraphenalia out of their
house. It might have
something to do with the fact
that I've been married for
over a year, and prior to that
I lived on my own for five
years.
At least they're not
charging me rent for storage
of all these valuables for six
years. (I hope)
My decision to move my
worldly possissions came
after I received a threat
from my own dear mother.
Either get this junk out of
here, or it goes in the gar-
bage, was the gist of the
message.
Unfortunately, my
husband agrees' with my
mother. He'd like to see my
things moved straight to the
dump, er, pardon me, land-
fill site. You see, Victor lived
in our home for two years
and had it nearly furnished
when I moved in with all the
contents of my apartment.
Space is at a premium. But I
refuse to part with any of
these cherished items.
For example, do you think
they really want me to give
up the gigantic Snoopy dog
which was the first Christ-
mas present Victor ever
gave me 11 years ago? And
if I'm going to keep it, then I
might as well keep my entire
collection of stuffed animals.
.Many of them were prizes
after spending a lot of money
at various Western Fairs or
CNEs. One yellow dog even
came home from Expo '67
with me.
Nor could I part with
Barbie, Ken or Skipper.
After spending what seemed
to be most of my life time, at
that time in my life,
collecting extensive war-
drobes for these three dolls, I
can't see letting them fall
into just anyone's hands.
Mom also has a cupboard
filled with' games that she
wants me to clear out. Now,
how could I go on Without my
Man from Uncle game? I
would have just died if I
hadn't got that for Christmas
back in 1968. The Ottiji
board, a gift at Christmas
'68, may also be vital to my
existence.
As if moving out the games
.and toysWasn't bad enough,
what do I do with the heart
Shaped chocolate boxes filled
with old letters and other
personal things? I have a
collection of diaries span-
ning five years at high
school. I have old
programmes, bringing back
memories of things like the
first play I saw at Theatre
London, or the first school
trip to the Festival Theatre
in Stratford.
There are birthday cards,
Christmas cards, letters
from pen-pals, notes from
teachers, even love letters.
There are 4-It note books,
science fair projects,
autograph books and
C.G.I.T. buttons.
There are report cards on
nineteen years of education.
The kindergarten report
with its stick men pictures
area far cry from the
computerized printouts of
university. Comments like
"English - 88, Excellent"
and "math - 61, Needs to
concentrate in class"
abound.
