SPIlONE:......... ............. SIGNATIURE: .............................................. The Church Speaks fw I Sponsored by the WIIITBY MINISTEII ASSOCIATION By THE REV. GERALD A. HUNT Pastor Whltby Baptiet Church On the eve of Canada Day a new government is being put together. What's it made of? Will it last? Where is our country going? These are the questions we ask of our new prime minister, his cabinet, the Governor-General and ail the new "staff on the hili" While Christians sometimes think of their citizen- ship "ini heaven", they are called to a vital concern for their land. Righteousness exalts a nation. While we're looking for new deals let's begin with ideals. Not new year's resolutions, but standards restated, not unlike the original Ten Commandmen- ta. Like the cartoon figure in last week's Free Press some would like to begin by chopping down the past. A Christian principle says we ought to give thanks to God for good things of the past, even if cynics and critics today -- sickle in hand -- have no patience or gratitude for it. Pen in hand, we submit Ten Words for today. 1. No demnocratic government shall play God with a responsible electorate. They shall give leadership without assuming lordship. 2. They shalrnake leaders and refrain fromn breaking them unless the latter have broken the fir- st commandrnent. We should not worship them or what the media says about themn. 3. The government shail recali that they receive their authority froni God, no matter how "secular" they feel, how great a majority they have or how tempting the motive of expedîency becomes. A purely- man-made institution will not last and without God's help democracy will not work. 4. They shall not play favorites in social or religious groupings for it is in the air of freedomn, equality and respect that truth will flourish and triumph. This does not preclude a. constant watch for the phoney and insidious in institutional religion. 5. They shall have a high regard for normal relationships, especially families, encourage-per- DI DYOU KNOW that iiabiiity insurance, flot collision or corn- prehensive, is automnatlcally extended to cover your own or your spouse (flot children) operation of a rented car.

We reahize that for many this will mean a change of heart or as Jesus put It "being born again". Altrulsm, volunteerlsm and personal concern, ike preventive medicine, will save us a lot of money, trouble and legislation.' 6. They shall not gouge, smirch or assassinate another's character, for that is dloser to murder than you may thlnk., 7. They shall be an example of fidelity and in- tegrity to the diverse elements of this land, in- spiring us to a new level of mutual trust. 8. (Exodus 20:15 says "Do not steal!1") Need we say more? 9. They shahl encourage our people to live with less crlticism for it seems to have infected most areas of life to the point where a large number of people lose sleep and self-worth. Many grumble, find fault and forget how to praise and encourage others. 10. They shaîl try to slow the constant rush for acquisition, comfort and security that obsesses Canadians more than other people, and promote living more by faith and resourcefulnesa, lest God in his justice allow us to drown in either affluence, ut- ter predictability or national debt (not to mention pollution). May God bless and prosper youï in the measure you keep the commandments in word and spirit. We're praying you will, John et ai. No grant may mean end of tenant hotline Whitby Town Council has rejected a request for financial assistance from the' Durham Tenants'.Hotline. This was the second time that the group had asked for council's sup- port. Their previous request, made last November, was also denied. At last week's operations committee meeting, Sandy Frise, a caseworker for the group, said that they were asking fora one time gra nt ôf $2,000ý to help- keep 'them operating until per- manent .funding arrangements from the provincial government can be finalized. The hotline was originally established through a grant from the federal government, however, when the money ran out they were forced to look for other sources Of revenue. CUITa K&M CLEANERS SAM E DAY SERVICE ALTERATIONS AND REPAIRS Characteristics of Suede In a tannery, each hide is split into halves: the topside is polished to, become grain leather, and the underside is buf- fed to bring out the velvety nap of suede leather. The silliest suedes are made from sheepskins and pigskins. Suedes should be bruhed often with a bristie brush to prevent dirt from settling into them. If your suede is "linting", remove loose nape by rubbing with a terry towel. Do flot put tape or adhesive badges on suede - it may leave a mark. Suede attracts. and holds onto stains, especially grease, ou and protein, because it is quite porous. K & M Cleaners has the skil to remnove 'these set-mn stains. We wil also replace the euls keep suede supple. thatl Cleaning will reveal scuffs and wear that was masked by dirt. Since most dyes can not fully penetrate a skin,, suede will always change color, to some degree. especially the darker coiors. s«odon't expect a cleaned suede to be the exact color it was originally. "'A Cleaning Service for the Entire Fami»ly" 112 Coibome St. W. Whitby 666-2811I Frise told the commit- tee that the hotline is fielding between 30 and 40 calls a day. "A good portion of them from Whitby,"' she said. They need the money to _"keep this service going for the people who really need it. " The hotline helps tenants with no other means of support settie disputes with their lan- dlords. Frise pointed out that this is.the only such ser- vice available to residents' of 1 Durham Region. While the group wants $2,000, they would have been happy with $1,000. Frise added that they have already received $1,000 from the United Auto Workers and $3,000 from the City ofý Oshawa. The money would be used to pay the hotline's basic operating costs between Septemberý and December. The service is curren- tly being- operated by a student employment program with Frise and one other case worker voluntee 'ring their time until money for their salaries can be found.. While the coundillors seemed impressed by the organization's value to the community, they were pot willing to make another exception to the town's policy of not providing new grants; to community organiza- tions. Centre Ward. Coun- cillor Marcel. Brunelle tried to, get the commit-, tee to vote them $1,000, however, he was not successfu. "We just don't have any money in the budget," Councillor Joe Drumni told Frise. Af ter th 'e decision, Frise told the Free Press that the hotline was in danger. of closing; down even though a permanent source of funding has been found. However, those moiles won't be available until later thisyear. "This is our only op- tion," shesid.
