But Stephen sets him straight. "Just cause you don't like some of the things your parents do, doesn't mean they're abusing you," he says. And by talking about her own experience of sexual abuse and how she got help, Joanne explains the difference between well-meaning adults who kiss or hug hellos and those whose actions are sexually abusive. Volunteers bring Joanne, Nam, and Stephen to life using a Japanese style of pup- petry known as bunraku, which requires no special expertise. A two-day training session on puppetry skills and child -abuse issues is aimed at preparing puppeteers for the classroom. "The Kids on the Block provide an ex- citing and rewarding opportunity for volunteers to make a difference in some child's life," says Ms. Sehl.

And Recycling may begin at Holmesville dump BY BILL HENRY Waste recycling will begin at the Holmesville dump next month, with a curbside, 'blue box recycling program to follow as early as next January. The Holmesville Landfill Site Board also agreed Thursday to hire a consultant to set up a recycling program which would in- volve each of the eight municipalities who share use of the Holmesville dump, local recycling coordinator Larry McCabe said Monday. Meanwhile, McCabe said, bins have been ordered for the site and area residents wanting to begin recycling can haul newspaper, plastic bottles, glass jars and bottles and tin and aluminum cans' directly to the dump. Bins will be emptied regularly and the waste trucked to a larger centre where the material can be reused. "It isn't the blue box system yet," .21MINEME01e McCabe 'said. "If people feel strongly enough (about recycling I they can start in their own garage." The decision comes only a month after Goderich Town Council initiated recycling locally in response to a delegation of more than 100 proponents of recycling. The group asked for an immediate program. McCabe said the landfill site board has agreed that one feasibility study should be undertaken to encompass a regional recycling plan for all eight user municipalities, rather than each town im- plementing its own program. The study is required ' before participating municipalities may qualify for a variety of available provincial start-up grants: The towns of Goderich, Clinton and Seaforth, villages of Lucknow and Bayfield and townships of Goderich, Col- borne and Tuckersmith are all users of the site. McCabe said advertisements are ex- pected within two weeks advising residents of the "source separation" pro- gram to begin next month, and giving details about what recyclable materials will be accepted at the Holmesville Land- fill site. McCabe also said terms of reference for the full feasibility study are being prepared and will be sent to several firms known to have worked on similar projects. The study would assess available markets for recycled material, determine which materials would be included in the pro- . gram, estimate costs and recommend details of the program. The board is expected to review con- sultants' proposals at its March 23 meeting.
