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- fort, direction and salvation, Coffee hour hostess, following the service was Mrs. Joan Cole.

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 Hon. R. Roy McMurtry Minister MI Ministry of the i Attorney 1 General =Its. 43k= liommir Ontario 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.

Far the worship service, Eleanor read an ar- ticle on, "Development - Power for the Powerless". -She told us that Third World leaders allege, not without justification, that althoogh their nations have nominal independence, they are in fact still subservient to the economic policies of the rich. The powerful must share their power with the powerless, Scripture from Deuteronomy, chapter 26, verses 1-11 was read by Liz Adams, Hymns - "Faith of our Fathers" and "In Christ there is no east or west", were sung.

To close the service film slides were shown on the Carribbean. A youth organization meeting of a group of Church of God young people, met Friday evening at Jim and Judy Snyder's home, Barbecued wieners were 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. Mary's musings From now til September 30, 1980, all Northrup King seed corn will be sold at last year's prices. That includes even our NCGA(National Corn Growers Association) Chun- , pion hybrids.

The space un- derneath the bed in the spare room is already filled with notes and essays written over five and half years at university. Where do I put papers and projects of five years of high school and nine years of elementary school? And the books -- there's everything from Grimm's• Fairy Tales and Lady and the Tramp, to Nancy Drew and Trixie Belden, right through to Wuthering Heights and the ac- companying Coles Notes. What do you do? You carry overflowing cardboard boxes from one attic, dust them off, chase the spiders out, and put them away in another attic. Gerald M. Regier RR 3 Zurich, Ontario Ph. - 236-4843
