Bruce spent the summer in the North West Territories, north of Baker Lake, with a uranium detection crew.

It seems not, considering the rising vandalism in churches and cemeteries. The problem is not an isolated oddity, but Is occuring with prevalence across the country. From the horrifying idea of some jokers getting their kicks by destroying tombstones to the theft of religious articles from the Roman Catholic Church in Dublin. The probl.,m lies very close to home. It is not only a case of petty vandalism and cheap thrills. Last month an elderly man was beaten to death at the Evangel Temple in Toronto. Also in Toronto, two Catholic priests were held up at gunpoint and also the great St. Michael's Cathedral, the archdiocese of Toronto, has been broken into and now the priests have a guard -dog to guard over the` rouse of' the Lord. , The problemnot isolated to the supposedly highly corrupt,.city of Thronto. In a recent article 9n The Globe and Mail a St. Michael's priest, Father Love noted that Catholic churches in Port Hope and Cobourg had been burglarized• in the past week. Also a total of 13 other Catholic chur- ches had been hit in the past two weeks. Father Love explained to The Globe that supposedly a group of professional thieves have been working over the London -Kingston area for the past year -and -a -half. It is sad to think that people have such a lack of respect and conscience and will stoop to robbing the Sunday collection or plan such plots as stealing Elvis Presley's body for ransom. I'm sure that some of the world's most devoted atheists have enough honor and regard to acknowledge such a distinguished institution. One does not have to be a so-called "religious freak" to see the wrong in this vandalism. In the same way, one in their right mind, will not go out and purposely kill'a dog because they're not animal lovers. Yet churches are still faced with a task of locking their doors, acquiring watchdogs and may someday need to protect themselves with burglar alarms and stronger defensives like guns. It seems that the watchful eye from above is no longer a strong enough force to protect the church from today's delinquency. Maybe a bolt of lightning would show the thieves the error of their ways.

CLINTON A regular reader tells us, that back in the Spripg, she sent along a money order to, Rockwood Gardens in Acton for • severaI--advertised items, including a half dozen Dahlia bulbs. The other merchandise apparently arrived alright, but alas, no Dahlia bulbs! A note she wrote them received the promise that the missing bulbs would be for- warded shortly, but since then nothing has happened. The writer tells us that the amount of money involved is very small, tart she feels she, is entitled . to receive what she paid for. IMPACT agrees with her and we forwarded her com- plaint to the Acton firm. This was done last week, soy� hopefully they will honouP their promise, one way or another. T.

Since her letter appeared I have enjoyed 'a pleasant correspondence with a Mrs. Mary -Beth Hoy, the President of the London chapter of Parent Finders, a national non-profit, self help mutual aid organization that holds monthly meetings in many Canadian cities, including London, Toronto, Hamilton, Ottawa and (very soon), Windsor. Mrs. ploy states that, " few exceptions, memb have been successful in ob- taining their relevant adoption orders." If any readers are in- terested in more information about this worthwhile organization, I will be happy to put them in touch with Mrs: Hoy, if they drop me a line.
