They have been forced into a situation of crippling and perhaps closing, a, social structure they believed in and worked for.

They've given a lot of themselves to the kids at the centres. The staff aparently doesn't like the arbitrary closing of the drop-ins one day for $40 damage. They don't agree with the $2.50 membership fee for the centres. And they want their old drop-in co-ordinator, Gregory Spears back. But council didn't listen to them.

Zoning If your child accidentally sprays insecticide, pesticide or other chemicals into his eyes, immediately wash them out with plenty of warm water. You may find some in- secticides contain flam- mable chemicals. The label may advise you not to smoke, and to turn off any open fires, such as stove burners, when spraying. Cover or remove all ex- posed dishes and food, as well as bird baths, dog dishes and fish bowls. Make sure bird ages are also covered. When you have finished using the insecticide, or any other spray, store it out of sight and reach of small children. Spray away from yourself to avoid inhaling in- secticides. If you are using the spray outdoors, there may be a caution to stand upwind from the area into which you are spraying. Before spraying, make sure children are not in the room. Outdoors, keep them at a good distance from the area being sprayed. houses, duplexes and apartment houses. The same applies to John Street and Church Street where many young epople choose to live. People don't want apart- ments when they can build a nice home on a 30-foot lot. Especially when the price of land is so high. If you people of Weston want R1 zoning, then move out 20 miles. Right now you are only eight miles from Toronto's City Hall and you can't stop progress. All that this new bylaw will do is create a monopoly for apartments that are already here. It's like putting green glasses on a horse and feeding it sawdust so it might think it's grass. Signed, Interested The Editor: . As a mother of three teenagers and also a Big Brothers plan to have work days on three alternate Saturdays in May; 1-15-29. Willing hands are invited to Mn in the project by taking along a rake, smile and their lunch. Big Brothers of Metropolitan Toronto, in conjunction with the Scar- borough Parks and Recreation Department and local community associations plan to develop over a period of time the Fir Valley Park, located on Warden and St. Clair. Saturday May l, at 10 am. is the first in a series of work days. Big Brothers of Metro hope to get by "with a little help from their friends." Although Big Brothers are organizing the project and supplying many hands to till the soil, they feel they can encourage their neighbors to help as well. We have been assured by William Davis, from that very hour when the leadership of the Con- servative Party was handed over to him by John Robarts at the Maple Leaf Gardens Convention, that his government would continue in the constructive Robarts approach on Confederation. Instead, it is obvious that the Davis Government has reverted to the old Ontario tradition, established by Hepburn and Drew, in which Queen's Park maintains a running battle with Ottawa. Under such circumstances buck-passing and recrimination become the order of the day. Serious problems become lost in the verbal warfare. Two governments, both of whom are representing the same people, operate as though they had no common in- terest. All of which, of course, is patently absurd. The losers in this kind of game are the people of Ontario - and of Canada as a whole because, for better or for worse, Ontario's role in reshaping confederation is critically important. Now, I doh't want to be misunderstood. On many Course is set to make a bad situation worse The Budget dominated the news from Queen's Park last week. My personal reaction was mixed - equal parts of sorrow and of anger. Sorrow - because this nation is threatened with disintegration from within through an escalation of federal-provincial and inter- provincial tensions to a greater degree than at any time since the pre- confederation years. My fear is that the Ontario Govern- ment is set on a course which is going to make a bad situation worse.

So for the sake of humanity, let's give them a chance now to prove themselves. member of a newly formed committee to set up a definite programme for the drop-in centres in this area, I must protest the suggestion of some council members that these centres be closed down altogether. Give the kids a chance. Don't punish the majority for the actions of the minority. Sure there are problems, but given half a chance, we may overcome these problems. What will happen to our children when the only place they have to go is the street corners? Is this a solution? This is pushing them into doing the very things that your are protesting now. provincial - municipal jurisdiction, the Ontario Government's position is basically correct. All the more reason, therefore. why it should be pursued calmly and constructively, instead of in an atmosphere of escalated federal-provincial warfare. Such warfare may be good politics on the eve of provincial election. It may divert attention from the issues on which the Davis Government is vulnerable, and leave the impression with the voters that the blame lies in Ottawa. But it is not going to hasten the solution of Ontario's problems, and it runs the grave risk of inflaming relations between the various regions of Canada and our central government in Ottawa. For example, after spending the opening portion of his Budget address in a stronger verbal brow- beating of Ottawa than we have heard in the Legislature since the days of George Drew, Provincial Treasurer McKeough concluded: "I am optimistic that the federal government will now recognize these specific issues, such as, for example, the vital need ot the provinces to get a larger share of the overall tax dollar to meet the growing needs which fall within QUEEN'S PARK REPORT Donald C.

There are peripheral moves: the resident fishing licence has been abolished; that will save the sportman $3 a year. The price of beer has been reduced in Northern Ontario, and in order to compensate for that, the price of beer in Southern Ontario has been raised. However, if my reaction as a Canadian to the Davis Government political posture was one of regret, it turns to anger when the details of what this Govern- ment did within its own jurisdiction to ease the tax burden on the people of Ontario, and to assist in rescuing us from the widespread unemployment of today.

Thisisasbigapipedream as the Throne Speech (pn- tention that the Govern- ment's "new" housing program was going to produce 132,000 new jobs. Upon detailed probing, Government spokesmen conceded that they didn't know how many new jobs their housing program would produce; in fact, that most of them would be a con- tinuation of existing jobs. Furthermore, we are asked to believe that this massive stimulus will produce the 150,000 new jobs required to bring our unemployment levels down from the current 4.9 per cent in Ontario (over 6 per cent nationally) to 3 per cent. the private citizen. The Budget offers a 5 per cent tax rebate to corporations on their investment in machinery and equipment. This simply means that the 5 per cent sales tax which corporations pay on machinery and equipment will now be rebated. And we are asked to believe that this tax cut is "a major move designed to produce a massive stimulus to business investment". Indeed, investment in new machinery and equipment today usually results in fewer jobs, because of automation. At the moment we are engaged in analyzing the likely impact of the Government tax cut on in- vestment in machinery and equipment. I shall come back to that next week because Mr. McKeough presented this as the Government centre piece in its economic program to eliminate unemployment. Carol Wilson, York Community Services. Hugh A. Dempsey There was a man whom we metonthestepsoflbombed St. Stephen's Church in Nimmegean. He met us inside where workmen were still working to restore the edifice. We talked of many things, but when we left he said. "There are many boys came in," he could begin to understand why we will not forget, - and will not allow our children to forget what was accomplished for them. He believes it is a pity that we lack spirit here. There were thousands of children at the graves and some of them had walked five miles to place flowers on a Canadian's grave - "a man who died before we were born." They will remember them. No matter how large or small, there is a committee to look after our boys' graves, but I understand that before a school child may 'adopt' a grave he or she first learns a lot about Canada -- and about thos guys who put their lives on the line. It is we who should be thanking these people over there, - but do LEGION NEWS The Dutch people's regard for Canadians made me humbly feel that we do not deserve it, -. I metone of our provincial officers in Groesbeek during the annual Remembrance Service and he agrees with me.

The fear of the wounds that love - true - love -- must receive and must inflict if it is not to be weak sentimentality. This madman ot the tombs must have been a terrifying sight. He lived naked among the caves where the dead were buried. He could be heard howling as he prowled about at night in that nightmarish place. Sometimes during the day people would glimpse his wild figure bleeding from self-inflicted wounds. He was as strong " an ox. Whenever the law restrained him with chains (the only treatment for mental illness they had in those days) he would snap those chains as though they were strands of cotton. There in the weird isolated world of the graveyard, wild of eye, wounded in body, this man was tearing his life apart in a frenetic fury of frustration and fear. It was fear that gave him torment. The fear of looking the world straight in the eye every morning, and accepting all that life might bring. The fear of reaching out to touch other people. The fear, the desperate, curled-up fear, of being touched himself. The fear of the future. The fear of sickness; of disablement; of destitution. The fear of success; the fear of failure. The fear of himself; and of the lurking passions that might, if not beaten down and repressed, powerfully assert themselves.

Looking back DON REED Rum and Is Minister of Woummuov Unit-d Church in Weston. Fear and Love Are we not, really - all of us to be per- fectly honest - afraid of the perfect love of Jesus? Afraid that his love, his healing, his salvation may be too costly, too demanding, too disturbing? being a person who is possessed of and propelled by true love, can provide. In- formation is communication. And com- munication is the outreaching touch of true love. PII say more about this specifically next week when I round off this series about love. He was afraid of Jesus. Strange, you say. Naturally, say I. of course he was afraid of Jesus. Because Jesus personified the very thing of which, in the very depths of himself, he was basically afraid. He was afraid of Love. He was afraid of the love that is so strong and true, so powerful and so pure that it must sear and burn and torment us in order to heal us! So this man was afraid. But Jesus was not afraid. Perfect love knows no fear. Jesus faces the maniac calmly and asks him the key question, "What is your name?" Information is a preventative medicine which each one of our Tlunteers, by simply We talk glibly of the Loveof God. But if we knew what we were talking about we would be mortally afraid. Because Dove cannot and will not tolerate anything in us that is not love! "My name is Many" stutters the man, "I am a thousand differing people," he says, "and I feel as though they are cutting me to pieces with red hot knives." And what does Jesus do? With a whiplash authority he tells the tormentors to quit. Then he reaches out his hand and touches the man who could not bear to be touched. Tenderly he picks up the torn edges of this man's life. And with his love - a challenging, accepting love - he knits those torn edges together and makes him whole again. " This is a vivid example of what, in a less spectacular way, we hope to do through our Weston Information and Referral Centre. Fear often springs from lack of contact with, the community. Before fear develops into suicidal despair we want to apply the palliative of dependable informatigi. This sounds rather far-fetched. But believe me, it The cure was well nigh miraculous.
