Zoning Amendment l‘Three-Ring Circus This permission will require an amendment to the town’s zoning bylaw it was pointed out by Mayor Thomas Broadhurst. He recalled that when control of "hazardous use“ was removed by the provincial government from the committee of adjust~ ment and transferred to council, legal advice had been to amend the zoning bylaw by a blanket prohibition of "hazardous use.” At that time it was not fore- seen. he noted, that this could be a hardship on established businesses. such as the two ap- plicants. The town‘s solicitor will be requested to advise council of more expedient means of handling applications for hazardous uses. Until these are written into the town’s zon- ing bylaw. applications of this nature will be referred to the bylaws committee for investigaâ€" tion and recommendation to council.

High above the altar of the new St. Mary Immaculate, above the peak of the roof, the great sanctuary window breaks the light of the after- noon sun into many colours reflected onto the huge. sweeping wall at the back of the sanctuary. And as clouds move across the sun, the reflected colours dim and glow. the figures appear and disappear. The central figure of this magnificent window. design- ed by Gerald Tooke. repre- sents the winged figure of the woman of the Apo- calypse, mentioned in Rev- elations XII as a key figure in the drama of salvation. This reference picks up the story of Genesis III where God foretells the enmity be- tween the serpent and the woman. between the ser- pent's seed and the woman’s seed. In the vision in Revela- tions, the woman brings forth a child who. as the Messiah, triumphs over death and ascends into heaven.

It is a story that spans many kinds of men and women, from many walks of life. All have been moved to their contribution not simply by the needs of the parish for a larger church, bud: equally by their desire to raise a memorial to the cherished memory of the late Father McGinn.
