Several.readers have taken the 'time to write us recently with'
Practically the same complaint, and that is the 010 06 .familiar
one of cheques or money -orders beingveryvery quickly cashed
by a Targe mail-order house known as,, T.P. PRODUCTS; and.
' then a long continuous silence.by this Firm! • • •
The onlynoticeable difference in our readers' letters were that'
the items'.ordere and paid for in advance varied, because it
appears that T.P: PRODUCTS seem to handle a great variety .of
completely differen'Y types of merchandise.
We have made enquiries on behalf of our disgruntled readers •
'and-while-=sofar--our --letters--too---remain—unanswered-, we can
.pretty well forecast thaLtheir reply will be pretty well along the
line of, '.`The .deeiianr ` teing--inucfrbigger than anticipated .and"
112,1tbey. just haven't been able to cope. "'We have no doubt that.
the. readers will eventually receive their•.refunds but that•doesn't'
'alter the fact, that'T.P. PRODUCTS have enjoyed the use of a
great amount of Money fora considerable period oftime!

Due to the fact that I have accepted•a. job in Kitchener; 1'
gave My present landlord one month's notice to vacate my
.,_apa;4tme..nt_us.:.ger. c:'Signett.le ;;�'s•. :e htas�re +Fi l�ao_
accept it, saying; that I had .to give him 60 days notice'
because. of thenew changes of the Landlord and Tenant •
Act.
---l.am aware that quite a number of changes were -made
recently to'this act but I didn't think that it applied to ex-
isting leases. When 1 questioned my landlord about.this, he
claimed that it did, and that my ignorance of the law was
no excuse. 1
Is he legally correct or is he just trying to get another
month's rent out of me?
Yes, your landlord appears to be correct in what .he says
because of the amendments to .the Landlord and Tenant Act
which became la;w here in Ontario, last December 18th..,,_
Among other things if now required tenants and laniards Yvhen
terminating a. fixed term tenancy of a month or more to grant
each other a minimum notice of 60 days. "
We might also 'add that these new regulations also affect a
weekly tenant who.is now required to give a minimum of 28 days-,`
notice. to terminate, instead of 7 days as ,was the case before the.
changes. . •

Not Tong ago my wife and I purchased :our first home for
• a price of $68,000 but`when I went to take out insurance
for it for $100,000 I was refused. With the colt of inflation
rising so' quickly.aod. steadily,1 just cannot understand Why:
my insurance company would not insure itfor more than.
it's actual cost. l
Can,you enlighten me please?
All insurance companies, (to our knowledge) abide by the
• general rule of insurance Law pertaining' to Contracts of indem-
nity, (For example Fire Insurance) .which states that the insured
person is not allowed to make a profit on this accident.
The most you can do is to break even by'getting the cost o'f`'
replacement, which you will collect, providedo'f course„that your..
insurance policy covers, your house to,that amount.
Rightly or wrongly but inflation doesn'tenter into the picture,
as the price YOU PAY for the house, determines 'what it can be
insured for.
