The town hall BY BRUCE SHAW Within the next month, the committee formed to study the future of the town hall will be presenting its report. it would appear from comments made by one of the comr.,ittee members that the committee might recommend that the building he restored providing that it can he made functional. When council has the recom- mendation of the committee, there will be a public discussion of the report, and it is con- ceivable that a referendum will be held to determine specifically what will be done. Probably council will advocate the implementation of the report, whatever the report advocates. k 13u1, as in so many other matters, the future of the town hall will depend upon an informed public. Certainly, with the composition of the committee. all possibilities regarding the town hall will be explored, and if the report reflects a consensus, it will represent an intelligent and credible study that will demand the attention of council regar- . dless of our private opinions. The public will be given the report, and it is to be hoped that everyone will be provided with an opportunity to react so that council will proceed with the blessing of an informed and in- telligent majority. it would be next to impossible mother Mrs. Ruth Maines.

IRVIN RADER Dashwood 4-H Club started "The Garden Club" Monday May 5 at Violet Bender's. Leaders for this project are Mrs. Violet Bender and Mrs. Leone Riddell. Nomination of officers are as follows: president, Carolyn Hartman; vice president, Caroline Rosenberg; secretary Heather Riddell and press reporter Pat Bender. There are seven members in this club.

The second meeting was held May 12 at Leone Riddell's. A club nickname "Dashwood Dazzling Diggers" was selected. At this meeting it was learned how to prepare the garden for planting. the grading system of fertilizers, how to plant seeds and transplant young plants. Members are to start planting their gardens now. The third meeting will be May 26, 1975. to second-guess the results of the report or even all of the factors , involved in the final recom- mendations, but certainly two important aspects of the problem will face the committee, and eventually you: costs and sen- timent. They are two separate entities. Sentiment is intangible and cannot be measured in any way by money; costs affect us all directly or indirectly and frequently suggest an absence of any kind of sentiment. They are two weights on the balance. and as a result, the decision made. whatever it is, will please some and offend others The response of many of you would indicate that this column is read and sometimes stimulating for at least provoking I. For that reason I would encourage you now to read the report when it is published and to react vocally for or against it. It is an important matter and deserves more than an apathetic response. 1 r Shop and Save With This Week's INFLATION BUSTERS GROUND CHUCK 99<<e SMOKED BACON By the piece Sliced e LB. 1.J9LB .

We are paid every Friday. This Friday I not only got my pay cheque, but also a notice that as of that day my ser- vices would no longer be required. It seems that business has been bad, and the store decided to cut back on staff. But 1 think that I'm entitled either to notice or to an extra week or two of pay. Am I right? You are entitled to notice or to pay in lieu of notice provid- ed you hove been working for more than 3 months and have not been fired for misconduct or wilful disobedience. You ore not entitled to notice or to pay in lieu of notice if you have merely been laid off and the layoff is for less thon 13 weeks. However if the termination is permanent, you are entitled to a notice determined by the length of your employment: a week's notice for an employee for between 3 months and 2 years; 2 week's notice for between 2 and 5 years; 4 week's notice for between 5 and 10 years, and 8 week's notice for 10 years or more.

As a perfect example, what about those apartment buildings that post signs saying, "NO STUDENTS.' If this isn't a form of discrimination then 1 don't know what is. Would you be good enough to please enlighten this apparently ignorant student as to the laws gover- ning discrimination. What you must remember is that under our law, o landlord is free to practice any sort of discrimination except what is ex- pressly prohibited by low. Ontario hos an anti -discrimination statute known as the Ontario Human Right's Code, The Code prohibits discrimina- tion in most housing accommodation on the basis of race, creed, colour, sex marital status, nationality, ancestry, or place of national origin. Since students as such don't fall into any of these categories it appears that it is still perfectly legal to dis- criminate against them. "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 low 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 low."

The noise is deafening, especially since they tune up their bikes at midnight and later. I went down to tell them off, and one of them waved a wrench at me and told me to mind my own business. I called the police, but they said there was nothing I could do, since I had no witnesses. I'm scared that if I complain again one of these kids will attack me. What can I do? You might have a local by-law concerning noise at night. Check at your municipal clerk's office. As for the threats, you con have the kid bound by recognisance to keep the peace. You can do this bylaying an information before a justice of the peace, magistrate, or judge of the provincial court (criminal division). If you can show at a later hearing that the person may cause injury to you or your family, he may be ordered to enter into a recognisance, with or without a bond, "to keep the peace and be of good behavior" for up to twelve months. Violation of this recognisance is in itself a criminal offence.
