The leaded stain glass win- dows, hiand-made in Austria, will hielp keep in the heat frorn the flive active fireplaces. lIn addition, there are thiree fireplaces whicbi will contain imitation Iogs. Tliere are three rooms downstairs- the Victorian Room, with Victorian high back chairs; the Hastings Room, narned after a hunting club in London; and, the Lord Byron Roomi wh ich i s rcaflly threce roomns which wiII serve as waiting roomis or lounges with bar and lunch facilities.

The place sure bias changed since the Free Press uiscd it as hieadquarters way back Mien. The Law &You Q. 1 recently inuveu ino a nice residential neighibor- liood. But when the sfiow nmlted this spring, what shouild 1 discover, but that the old fellow down the biock nas a ni-junikyard in his back yard. 1 got a bit rilcd and went down to city hall. Thie people there admfitied ilhat the whiole neighl-bor-liood was zoned residential, but they refused to do anytIhing abouit this guy. XVai cat i 1do? A. If thie man down the block was running his'scrap business wvhen the zoning by law wvas passcd, thcere is nothing whiatever that you cani do. Wien a bylaw is passcd it cani only regulate future use of the land. It cannot take awvay t1e right to use tiie land the way it was being used when the bylaw was cnacted. The man down the block probably hias the right to a "nion-con- forming use" of bis land. More likely thian flot you are stuck with a scrap yard for a neighbor until he either dies, goes out of business, or seils die place. Q. Whien 1 was a child 1 was told that priests could flot be made to tell in court what they hieard in the confes- sional. Lately I have heard the samne thing about those modern priests, the psychiatrists. Is there any truth in either tale? A. Strictly speaking, the only professional confidences which the courts will recognize is that which exists be- tween a lawyer and his client. In mosh of the U.S. there are Laws on the books saying a priest does flot have to divulge things people tel[-himr in the course of his duties. But this is flot the case in Canada. Either a prîest or a psychiatrist can in theory be made to tell what he knows. But in practice, the courts are most reluctant to make eihher a priest or a psychiatrist divulge professional confidences, and wil usualy flot order themto do so,. "These questions and answers, based on Ontario law, are published to inform and flot ho advise. No one should try to apply or interpret the law wîithout the aid and advice of a. trained expert who knows th e facts., since the facts of each case may change the application of the law."
