Where is my resolution book? Alas, no pages left -- all used at New Year's! What is Lent! A time of pen- ance and a time to do those "little" things htat proved htat Christ really does share 'your life and influence your actions. When is it? Six weeks before Easter, It commemorates the 40 days of Christ's prayer and fast- ing in the desert before He started His public life. Where is it? It is universal. LIKE DIET Why is it? To be a Christian nowadays, as always, takes courage, for one must have self control to live a orally good life. The practice of self control, like a diet, is often delayed until tomorrow. Lent, beginning on Ash Wednesday, encourages us to make the start NOW. However, the main purpose of Lent is to increase our love of Christ who loved us even to death on Calvany. Actions speak louder than words. Nice-sound- ing prayers may be edifying but it's what you do every day of the week that really proves your love of and loyalty to Christ. Lent is the bugle call to action. THE PERFECT ASSIST One cold, rainy night while waiting for a bus, I watched an elderly woman get off one and then walk slowly over to the next bus stop. After quite some time, she spoke to me. "Nasty night, isn't it? But I guess I won't have too much .longer to wait,"' A little curious, I asked which bus she wanted and when she told me, I exclaimed, "'But you just got off that one! Why? I mean, why get off before you were supposed to?" "Well,"" she stammered a bit shyly, 'you see, there was a terribly crippled young man on that bus and nobody offered him .a seat, and I knew he'd be em- barrassed if an old lady like me got up for him, so I just pre- tended it was time for me to get off and I rang the bell just as he was alongside my seat. He wasn't embarrassed, and I -- well there's always another bus." BOOK BANTER Favorite Author -- by Anne Ivanco A very famous English writer, the well-known Jane Austen, has written a great number of books, classics .Her style is her own, original and novel. KR is one which very effectively ilus- trates life in Engiand in the 18th century. She portrays the Vic- torian age very emphatically and brings out the staid and proper lives of her characters. Pride and Prejudice is one of Jane Austen's best books. Sense and _ sensibility, Northanger Abbey, Mansfield Park and Emma are some of -the others. The plots in her book are all, in my opinion, These books literary value and prove to be most enjoyable to the readers. Favorite Book -- by Maureen Mitotell. The most. interestingbook I have read this year is "The Foundling", written by Francis Cardinal Spellman. It depicts the thought ' a you'. man returning from the Firsi World War, with a badly scarred face and his right arm amputated, On the eve of his arrival in New York he makes his way to an old cathedral. Here he finds a young baby in the Christmas Crib. He takes the baby to a foundling home but is unable to adopt him because of his re- ligion. The man and the boy be- come life-long friends. The boy is influenced by many people, there is Sister. Crescentia the music teacher, Chubby the negro boy and Father Duane, rector of Mount Mary. He leaves for World War Two but comes back blind.

So far, the department has not announced the titles of the books to be scrutinized, but A. B. Miller, the department's ex- '}pert on indecent publications, said they represent "current problems." Among the books mentioned as '"'possibles'" to come before the tribunal are two by Ameri- can writers--James Jones' The Lua Red ate our" Bald- *s Anot Eight other books, including Viadimir Nabokov's Lolita, will be submitted nates by the justice department for the in- formation of the five 'members of the tribunal. A part of the legislation es- | tablishing the tribunal is under fire by several newspapers and civil liberty groups. The In- decent Publications Bill was adopted last fall. It raised more controversy and emotion than any other is- sue debated during the session. Most criticism was attached to what became known as "'con- troversial clause 15,' which al- lows the tribunal to limit the publication of its proceedings. It may order that no reference to any proceedings be published in any newspaper. other than the official gazette, or if may limit publication to a statement prepared by it, or make any other order limiting publica- tion, Any person affected by an or der prohibiting publication may, however, apply to the supreme tion at Oshawa Ski Club. court for a review of it.
