Children can get restricted movies Movies which would be placed in the "re- stricted" catego-y for showing at movie thea- tres can be obtained by children at video rental stores according to OPP Commissioner James Erskine. Erskine warns pa- rents their children can obtain these movies and play them back an home video players. A movie shown in a public theatre in On- tario must first be screened by the provin- cial Board of Censors. That body decides viewing categories and can also order portions to be removed from the film if the Board consi- ders them too violent or sexually explicit. Videotapes of movies available in rental stores are not subjected to the same approval process. The video versions will often bear a_ printed statement saying the movie has been approv- ed when the actual video versions still contain parts which cannot be screened in a_ regular movie theatre. Ontario Solicitor Gen- eral George Taylor re- cently said imported movies are not review- ed by Canada Customs. Importers have 60 days in which to arrange for a screening by the Board of Censors or they can just return the films to the foreign distributors. During that interval, some of the films are being copied solely for the videotape rental trade and then sent back.

In the first four months of 1983, these officers seized over 1,000. videotapes trom video stores and distri- butors valued at $130,000. More than 90 charges have been laid in the first four months of this year following seizures in the Toronto, Kingston and Madoc areas. Reducing dental costs The best way to beat the high cost of dental care is the practice of good. oral hygiene and regular checkups. Many Canadians try to save money by not going to the dentist. They end up with serious dental problems which require emergen- cy attention. Emergency dental care for neglect- ed teeth is generally more costly in the long run than regular pre- ventive measures. The patient can take preventive steps to re- duce his potential dental Sports materials available Many small communi- ties throughout North- western Ontario face limited access to sports information. In an ef- fort to promote sport within the region, the Northwestern Ontario Regional Sports Council began compiling resour- ce material two years ago from various Pro- Brodie Resource Library, Thunder Bay Public Library System. The collection repre- sents 46 different sports and consists of over 60 binders. The binders are avail- able for viewing in your community library via interlibrary loan. Please contact your local li- expenses. There are six steps to consider. Good home care is still the key to good dental health. A home care program includes the daily use of a fluo- ride toothpaste and daily flossing and brushing. For children in the fa- mily, this is especially important. Children up until the age of eight should be supervised closely in their hygiene and parents should be- gin brushing and floss- ing their children's teeth from the time the first tooth appears. To floss properly, use about 18 inches (46 cm) of dental floss. Wind most of it around the middle finger of one hand, the rest around the middle finger of the other hand. There should be about an inch (2.5 cm) of floss free between the fingers. This should be grasped between the thumbs and fore fingers. To floss, guide the floss between the teeth using a gentle sawing motion. Curve the floss into a C-shape around the surface of the tooth and work the floss gently under the gums. Move the floss up and down several times. Do the same thing on every surface of every tooth. A new toothbrush is a very good investment. A toothbrush should be replaced every two or three months. Dentists recommend a soft brist- led brush with a flat brushing surface. Pa- rents are advised to get the right-sized tooth- brush for every family member. Although most Cana- dian communities have water fluoridation, many do not. Ask your local health authority or dent- al society if your com- munity is fluoridated. If not, your dentist or physician may wish to prescribe a fluoride sup- plement for your family. Fluoride mouthwash- es will help reduce de- cay, but should not be - considered a substitute for good oral hygiene habits. Many employers now offer dental insurance plans. For the _indivi- dual, it is best to contact insurance companies in the area to see what is offered. Many provinces have low cost dental services for seniors, children or the handicapped. Many cities also have pro- grams of financial aid '*We are committed to rigorous enforcement of these laws," said Er- skine. "Parents should be aware their children could have access to this material. They are urg- ed to report all incidents where obscenity is sus- pected in retal video- tapes to the police auth- ority where the store is located."'
