exhibition is a very simple
one made of rag and stuffed
with fibre. It was probably
used as a child's toy and
comes from Egypt around
0-500 A.D. Some of the
contemporary entries include
apple-face dolls, Mennonite
figures arranged in a domes-
tic scene, a wonderfully
theatrical "dream catcher"
doll made by a Canadian
artist, and many others.
Almost without exception,
the dolls in the exhibition
provide clues about the
region from which they come
- whether the attire, the
legends, the beliefs, the
social customs, or even the
climate of the place! • The
Inuit dolls, for example,
really show how the people of
the Far North traditionally
dressed. Painstaking fidelity
with pay: New Year's Day,
Good Friday, Victoria Day.
Canada Day, Labour Day,
Thanksgiving Day and
Christmas Day.

The Ethnology Depart-
ment of the Royal Ontario
Museum, Toronto, cele=
brates the International Year
of the Child with an unusual
and wide-ranging exhibition
of more than 250 dolls this
February 9 to July 8, 1979.
Collectively, the dolls
represent not only the Native
and immigrant cultures of
Canada, but also suggest
how dolls have been used in
similar ways throughout the
ages and in many diverse
societies. The exhibition
features dolls that have
been used variously as
ceremonial or ritualistic
objects, as symbols, as works
of art, as teaching models,
and, quite simply and most
often, as toys - the play-time
companions of children
around the world!

five cents (35c) more per
hour than I do. He hasn't
been working there any
longer than I have and he's
no better at his job than I am.
Is there anything I can do
about the situation:
It is illegal under the
Employment Standards Act
for an employer to discrim-
inate against female employ-
ees by paying lower wages
for substantially the same
work performed in the same
establishment, the perform-
ance of which requires
substantially the same skill,
effort and responsibility and
which is • performed under
similar working conditions.
This applies unless the wage
differential is based on:
a. a se miority system
b. a merit system
e. a system that measures
earnings by quantity or
quality of production or;
d. a differential based on
any factor other than sex.
If you feel you are being
discriminated against get in
touch with your local office of
the Ontario Ministry of
Labour. They can inVestigate
and can order your employer
to pay the difference for as
long as you have been
discriminated against.
What public holidays are

Try turnip
for vitamin C
hood specialists at the
Ontario Mibistry of Agri-
culture and Food suggest you
get some of that daily
requirement of vitamin C
from an Ontario rutabaga.
One-half cup of raw or
properly cooked rutabaga is
an excellent source of
vitamin C.

The colour of an egg yolk
may range from pale yellow
to almost orange, depending
on the diet of the hen. These
differences in colour do not
affect the quality of the egg.

One of the most unusual is a
doll made form silkworm
cocoon. Called a Dharma
doll, it is named after the
founder of the Zen Buddhism
who, according to legend, sat
and mediated so long that his
limbs withered away.
Many organizations, in-
cluding The World Organi-
zation of Pre-School Edu-
cation, have assisted the
ROM's Ethnology Depart-
ment in organizing this
exhibition. UNICEF Canada
has provided stunning photo-
graphs of children around
the world, and many cultural
associations with ethnic
interests have made special
contributions to the show.
Several private citizens have
generously loaned their own
collections, and some artists
have even created new dolls
for this event.

ROM until July 8, 1979 is an
exhibition that will delight all
ages.
to detail is exhibited in their
inner and outer leggings and
inner andouter parkas made
of caribou skin and lined and
trimmed with fur. A hand-
some pair of Ukrainian dolls
dressed in their embroidered
finery, delicate Japanese
dolls dressed in kimonos and
a group of strolling street
musicians from Ecuador are
just a .few of the other dolls
that reflect regional attire.
Among the dolls associ-
ated with legends and lore,
one of the most fascinating is
the Kwakiutl "Child-Stealer'
doll from Northwest Canada.
This carved wooden doll has
two faces - one at the frcnt
and one at the back of her
head. While one face is
looking at you, her other side
is stealing a child for her
basket. In the same vein,
"Kachina" dolls from the
American Southwest are
among the highlights of the
exhibition and are associated
with religious rituals and
beliefs. These dolls were
given to children to acquaint
them with certain beings
from the supernatural world.
The ROM exhibition shows
that dolls can be made from
almost any material - apples,
straw, wood, cornhusks
