liked .the Christmas dinner MOot
ri-- so many people gathered
around one table — everyone
hiaupy, all at once. There was °,
fun of opening gifts from tumid

sister, and the " final, tingling
mystery of the visit of Santa
Claus!
Things have changed
grown older. Although opening,
presents is very exciting, it's not'
the momentous experience it
once was. No longer am I, thrilled
by , a doll "with -lots and lots.„ of
clothes." And I know "Santa
.Claus" comes only to boys 404
girls.
But Christmas is still a magical
time for me. Christmas caroing
and Christmas concerts are pad:
of the holiday. Buying gifts for
others and trying to foolproof
them against sneaky fingers is a
challenge. And one of the hap-
piest times is seeing a person's
face light up when they open a
gift -- "It's just what'- wanted."
Christmasis a feeling.
Christmas is standing in line at p
store waiting to buy a gift for
someone special. Christmas is

The Attorney General has call-
ed for a crackdown on drinking
drivers, to include raising the
drinking and driving ages, with
stiff penalties, ipcluding jail, for,
offenders. He has said that the
public., 'may be running Out of
sympathy for the &Link Who slips
behind the wheel." Crown' Attor-
neys' have, apparently,, been in-
structed to
nstructedto ask judges to toughen
sentences for drinking drivers, to
make the penalties much heav-
ier, and has suggested giving the
police power to set up roadblocks
to check drivers, plus the ar-
bitrary suspension of licences for
24 hours, whenever the police
consider a driver has had too
much to drink. The proposed
measures, which are expected to
be introduced in the Legislature
early in 1976, would give the
police considerable discretionary
power, and twill be similar • to
existing:laws in British Columbia
•and Alberta.
Opposition Leader Stephen
Lewis has indicated tentative en-
dorsement of the Attorney -Gen-
eral's proposals, saying the "idea
doesn't seem to me to be a ter-
rible violation of civil liberties",
while Liberal Leader Robert
Nixon' is "concerned about giving
police too much discretionary
power", even though obviously
something must be done about
drihktng drivers.
Ontario's Bill 5, requiring most
stores to close on Sundays and
holidays, has been passed in the
Legislature. The legislation will
be a little easier on drug stores,
allowing them to open on Sunday
if they employ no more than four
persons on that day. However,
the stores must sell only drugs,
hygiene products and sundries on
Sunday. Stores will be allowed to
open Sunday if they close on
Saturday for religious reasons --
although the Legislature agreed
to strike the reference to religion
from the Bill because it might be
considered unconstitutional:
New Democrats and Liberals
forced a change in the legislation
which will require pet shops to
close. Stores which will be
exempt from the provisions of the
Bill are small grocery stores,
milk stores, news and tobacco
stands and antique and handi-
craft shops. The selling area in
all these must be less than 2400
square feet and they must em-
ploy no more than three persons
in the store on Sundays and holi-
days. Service stations and plant
and flower nurseries will be
is.

A JOYOUS'TIME OF YEAR
It is a joyous time of year:
The snow, the carols, and Santa's
reindeer;
For a few short days the world's
at peace,
And all confrontations for a time
will cease.
People are friendly and say hello,
Some are strangers and some we
know,
The spirit of Christmas rides tall
and proud,
And the bells in the steeple chime
sharp and loud.
Every tradition, custom and trait
Had its beginning at some early
date,
The world was changed one star-
ry night,
When a Babe was born in the pale
moonlight. •
The little Babe's fame spread
throughout the land,
He changed people's lives with
the touch of His hand,
So now we hear as a sweet voice
rings,
The praising of man, the King of
Kings.
