Witmer went to Japan as a missionary
years ago, and now lives in Nayoro, a city in
the northern part of Japan. He drives about
40 miles each Sunday to Okoppe, where he is
pastor of the church.
Witmer, his wife Keiko and three children
are on furlough at present and will return to
Japan in March.
The Japanese visitors are the friends and
co-workers of the Witmers and the trip was
planned at this time so Witmer could help
with the travel arrangements in this area.
Homes of North Street congregation
members were made available for accom-
modation during their stay.
The bus tour on Sunday included a stop at
the Goderich Elevators where they were
met by Superintendent Eric Kirk. They
were able to go aboard one of the boats that
was being unloaded, having broughtgrain
from the Lake Head. They also witnessed
the loading of salt on a boat at the mine.
A drive past Champion, Domtar and
Schaeffer Pen gave them an opportunity to
learn of three more Goderich industries.
A stop in Benmiller included a visit with
Jack McLaren and family. Many of the
Japanese had worked with McLaren's niece
Doreen Howlett and her husband Floyd
when the Howletts were missionaries in
Japan. Since they will visit the Howletts who
now reside in Saskatchewan, they were
pleased to meet McLaren.
The Harry Burgsma farm at Nile land-
scaped with shrubs, ponds and fountains,
and displaying animals and birds, was the
final stop of the trip.
Back at the church, a Thanksgiving din-
ner included turkey, a meat the Japanese do
not obtain in their country.
Sunday evening featured a slide presenta-
tion and commentary.
The questions asked sparked interesting
answers from the Japanese group con-
sisting of ministers, school teachers and
church members.
It was learned that the seasons and
climate in Northern Japan are comparable
to Goderich. The winters are cold with
perhaps a little more snow than Goderich
gets.
There is still a need for missionary work
as a very small percentage of Japanese are
Christians.
They look forward to the possibility of free
trade, and also stated that now since wages
in Japan are no longer at their former low
level, Japan is facing more competition in
the market place.
Alcoholism is also a problem in Japan.
Teenage drinking seems to be on the in-
crease, and Alcoholics Anonymous is an ac-
tive organization there.
Japan has some nursing homes, but
families are encouraged to look after their
own elderly members, and are often sub-
sidized to do so.
Hiroshima is still remembered with
sadness and the visitors stress that reper-
cussions are still being felt, and will be for
some time in the future.
The evening ended with singing of a
Japanese hyrnn accompalifed by Ed Stiles.

Video retailers must
comply with classification
Video regulations providing for the ap-
proval and classification of commercially
distributed videotapes for sale or rent to the
public and the licensing of industry
distributors and retailers .was given final
approval in the Ontario `Legislature in
December, 1984.
All video advertising and display boxes
will soon bear one of the four well recogniz-
ed film classification symbols used over the
past several years in Ontario: Family IF),
Parental Guidance Advised (PG ), Adult Ac-
companiment (AA) and Restricted I R ). The
deadline for approval and classification of
all existing videos on Ontario retailers'
shelves has been set for February 1, 1986.
The minister also said he hoped the
classification and stickering of video casset-
tes would help to avoid situations where
well-intentioned retailers have found
themselves subject to criminal charges
because they were unwittingly distributing
a product that violated the Criminal Code.
Consumer and Commercial Relations
Minister Monte Kwinter has issued a warn-
ing to video retailers and distributors to
comply with his ministry's approval and
classification system for video products or
run the risk of operating outside the law.
In an address to a video retailers con-
ference and trade show held in Toronto
earlier this week, the minister said those in
the industry considering ignoring the licens-
ing provisions of the legislation would be at
risk of prosecution.
The majority of retailers have indicated
support for the legislation. However, it had
come to his attention that some video
retailers may have been counselled not to
co-operate with the video registration pro-
gram, said Kwinter.
"If any of you have received such advice,
I would ask you to consider for whose
benefit you are being asked to place
yourselves outside the law and to run the
risk of being prosecuted," the minister said.
