The Huron Historic Jail at
Goderich will open to the public
for its second season of tourist
operation on May 17 at 10 a.m.
The highlight of the summer
season is expected to be the July 5
declaration of the site as a
Federal Historic Monument by
the Ministry of Indian and
Northern Affairs, when a plaque
and monument will be unveiled at
the site during the official
ceremonies which are now being
planned.
Mr, Harry Besnell has been
4 retained as the Jail
• Administrator for the 1975
season. Under his direction,
during April, a number of
changes and improvements have
been made. The Governor's
house has been further restored
with the downstairs 'area
receiving the attention at this
time.
The building is being furnished
under the direction of Dorothy
Wallace, refurbishing committee
chairman, in consultationwith
Dorothy Duncan of the Provincial
Ministry of Culture and
Recreation.
The facility will operate with
the assistance of 8 area young
people who have received ap-
proval for an OFY grant project
called "Rehabilitation 1840".
The project includes exterior
maintenance, preparation of a
research document based on the
available archives of Huron
County and the original records
of the Canada Company which
are housed in Toronto, and acting
as hosts for the public during the
season's operation.
All activities will be un-
dertaken in costumes to re-create
the lifestyle of the 1840's, the time
of the -original construction.
It is hoped that the summer
season will present a schedule of
special events at the jail site.
A number of theatre presen-
tations are under discussion. A
group of Huron County artisans "
will exhibit their arts during the
summer in the main courtyard.
As an added attraction, the site
will be a stopping point for a
Southwestern Ontario Antique
car rally.
A summer schedule will be
published as soon.

We have four kids, the oldest of whom has now
reached the ripe old age of 15 and he has more nerve
than a toothache. His latest escapade is to inform his
mother and I that he has just ordered a bicycle for
himself costing $189.
It won't be very useful to him for a while however,
because when I found out about it, I made very good
and sure that the 15 year old in question won't be able
to sit on the machine for quite a long time.
He has apparently signed some order forms however,
and I'm just wondering if we as parents are obliged to
pay for it since this transaction was made completely
without our knowledge or approval.
No! You can forget about it as the age of majority and ac-
countability in Ontario is now 78. Anyone under that age is
considered a minor or an infant. A contract cannot be en-
forced against a minor unless it is a contract for necessities
such as food, shelter and clothing. If the infant receives goods
which are not necessary he may repudiate the contract. The
goods can be returned and the money paid refunded.
If the bicycle has not arrived, the minor can refuse to
accept it when it does and get get his deposit (if any) back.

I was told many years ago that I was adopted. I
never asked my adoptive parents while they were alive
who my real parents were and my adoptive parents
died several years ago, and now I have the strongest
urge to find out who my real parents are. I haven't a
clue as to how to go about this and I was also wonder-
ing if it's a very costly procedure or not?
Any information you can give me on this matter will
be greatly appreciated.
Normally adoption papers are sealed when the court order
is made for adoption. They can only be opened for inspection
either by the order of a judge, or by the consent of the provin-
cial Director of Child Welfare. You should write to the direc-
tor first, and only if you cannot procure his consent should
you go through the more expensive procedure of an applica-
tion to court.

The letter that appeaed in last week's column regar-
ding, "testifying in court", was of interest to me but I
have another question regarding our Canadian laws
that doesn't seem quite right to me and I was wonder-
ing what you thought about it, my question Sir, is this:
Why the defence of insanity is only used in major
crimes like murder? It seems to me that since it can get
the person off, it should also be able to be used for other
offences such as shoplifting, or for that matter, traffic
offences.
What is your answer?
First of all you are quite wrong in assuming that "it gets the
guilty party off" because, once a person is proved to have
been insane at the time of the commission of an offence, "the
law requires that he or she can be put into a mental in-
stitution."
Once put in as a criminally insane person, that person can-
not be released until the government decides to let him or her
out. Obviously then, a successful plea of insanity could result
in a virtual "Life Sentence" for any minor crime. Hope this ex-
planation answers your question.
"These questions and answers, based on Ontario law, are
published to inform and not to advise. No one should try to
apply or interpret the law, without the aid and advice of a
trained expert who knows the facts, since the facts of each
case may change the application of the law,"
