If books die, the future of mankind also dies. This is why in the good old days. **book"’ was a holy matter. There are some men of great ability who have had the Midas touch: If they touch ash, it becomes lead, if they touch lead, it turns into ‘gold, but one thing, —book which takes the reverse transformation: If a Midas-hand touched it, this holy-matter (the book) would turn into marketable gold (merchandise), then into lead (which has lost its old dignity) and finally, it would turn into ash. (lf we can see the consequences, then we would see that morais, serpents, fire, books, etc. are not things to play with.) Books have suffered from this kind of indignity for some time. Moreover, recently a vampire which is thirsty and hungry for man's sweat and blood has arisen. It is called the G.S.T. (Goods and Services Tax) and it is trying to bite ana suck the blood out of everything, even of Kindness itself. But the worst kind of problem is that its sharp, pointed teeth have been driven into the "womb" which our Future has been pregnated in, and it is about to spill out the immature Future of ours and our children. We feel it is like a severe famine that dries out our imagination, Dreams, Knowledge and Wisdom from our Brains and leaves a dark wasteland. Ht is our persuasion that even if we feed this monster (G.S.T.) with our flesh, we can not let it injure our future, can we? This is a crisis. This is an important Momeni to make a decision: pay (7%) now. save later, or save (7%) now, pay later SIDEWALK SALE 10-20 January ’91 READERS RETREAT BOOKSTORE LYNN ALLOY CENTRE 985-7616 Wednesday, January 9, 1991 ~ North Shore News - 14 A DAY iN COURT THE FOLLOWING people ap- peared in North Vancouver and West Vancouver provincial courts recently to face various charges.
