The heavy weights went into his monumental Columbo's Canadian Quotations. But, there was a lot of light-weight stuff left over, and this has been packed into a delightful little book called Columbo's Little Book of Canadian Proverbs, Graffiti, Limericks and other Vital Matters. With illustrations by Peter Whalley the book is kind of a handbook of Canadian humour, and our own Christian Island rates an entry. This is a sign which Columbo says is at the entrance to the reserve on the island: "You Are Now Entering An Indian Reservation Please Act Accordingly."' In "Full Coarse Meals," which is devoted to restaurant bloopers, we have the stunning, "Jello du jour - 15¢."'

A church parking lot warns, 'Angel Parking only'? and from the collection of examination bloopers we get "Com- pared to men, women have more faucets of emotion." If you collect palin- dromes (which spell the same word, whether you Start at the back of the word or the front), here's a dandy "Niagara, O Roar Again." Columbo considers that malapropisms may be a characteristic form of Canadian expression, and then goes on to give us Allan Lamport's "If somebody's gonna stab me in the back, I wanna be there" and _ Social Creditor Robert Thomp son's "You've buttered your bread and now you'll have to lie in it." Newspaper _ headlines contribute a few items to Columbo's book. Said the Ottawa Journal on June 30, 1964, "Another Blow for Unlucky Family: Ted Kennedy Survives Crash."' And in 1972, the Ottawa Citizen soberly declared: "Christmas Day Still December 25." Graffiti abounds in this book and "'Lake Erie Died for Your Sins" was found on a wall at the Univer- sity of Michigan 3umper Stickers? How about "William Davis for Ex-Premier"' or "Love is a Many Gendered Thing "'? There are a lot of smiles and chuckles in Colum- bo's Little Book of Canadian Proverbs...and other vital matters.

Book of poetry Dorothy Livesay has been writing poems since 1928. She has lived an interesting and observant life, and her most recent book of poems, called Ice Age, seems to prove that sixty years of age is a better way of seeing. Livesay dedicates her poems to friends, or to her grandchildren but a great many are simply com- ments on the way we live and spoil our land In the K Mart, "the shrieking tins...cry Buy! Buy!" In Ice Age, the title poem, she warns that a cold time is coming "which we have fashioned out of our vain jetpride." In Salute to Monty Python, she suggests, "Let old age take over with violence...if only to demonstrate the other side of the mirror - how you look to us, Kiddos."' In Perspectives, she fells the carpenter the house has shifted and her typewriter is on a slant.

Remember, a promise made is a debt unpaid. Week wobbles to a noisy close. Taurus (April 20-May 20): Don't allow contractual arrangement to keep you from expanding your horizons, Taurus. Exercise both your mind and muscles. What you neglect will atrophy. Personal puzzle can be solved. Clue lies in convoluted logic of associate. Listen patiently. Gemini (May 21-June 20): Pace slackens, but it's only temporary, Gem. Snatch opportunity to get your act together. Past achievements pale into in- significance when compared to future potential. This week, you are in a position to take one giant step for- ward. However, if you forget to say "May I?" it will be back to square one. Cancer (June 21-July 22): Pretense is nonsense, Moonbaby, so don't try to be what you are not. Just be yourself, which, incidentally, is not only charming, but also clean, brave and reverent. Mind Olga and you REALLY make points. Scouts' honor! Leo (July 23-August 22): Take the initiative. (Telling you to take initiative, Leo, is like commanding a rabbit to eat lettuce.) Nevertheless, there are times when you slack off in this department, more from laziness than timidity. Accent your desires, goals. A refresher course in romance may be in order. Virgo (August 23-September 22): Security takes top priority this week, Virgo, both internal and external. Local swami has some sage advice. If you'd do less lecturing and more listening, you could learn lesson. So, step down from the podium, dear, and plug in your hearing aid. Libra (September 23-October 22): Be careful what you pray for, Lib, because the gods often punish us by answering our prayers. One who is wiser (and possibly older) is in a position to pass on valuable information. Week ends on key of F, for frustration. Sorry. Scorpio (October 23-November 21): Challenge knocks on your door, Scorp, and you would be wise to welcome it with open arms. You have ability that you have not yet begun to use. Hustle to the nearest telephone and dial "O" for opportunity. Week jangles to interesting end. Sagittarius (November 22-December 21): Please, Saj, don't waste your time and energies trying to reform associate. Above all, don't preach. Considering your track record, my friend, it's unseemly. Instead, set example by your behavior. Week sloshes to a crazy close. Capricorn (December 22-January 19): This week you get on the right track toward goal. You begin to accept reality. You realize that you make your own world, Cap and CAN change it. Crackerjack plans hatch in your busy little brain. Aquarius (January 20-February 18): If situation exists that you want out of, Aquari, then get the ball rolling. If you refuse to take action, don't put the blame on Mame, or anyone else. Next time you're about to say "'can't", stop and ask yourself if the more honest word isn't "'won't."' Pisces (February 19-March 20): Seads of sales available in the marketplace, Pisces, so if you haven't already spent that Christmas bonus, scoop up a Social invitation in the offing. Put on your dance and be ready to go, Pisces, GO! : a-Ve ab O 2 = c : D e VOD 6 - D 2 » ambe Ve Ocie D e ario }
