There- are times in the life of
every mother, I suppose, when
she begins to wonder whether or
not her children will ever
respond to the tender loving care
she has lavished upon them.
Mothers come in all shapes
and sizes, it's true, but the real
honest-to-goodness mom is one
who feels for her kids like no
one else on earth — and hopes
against hope that her children
will be a credit to her, the
core •nity and themselves one
da •
iosl of the time, my three
offsp.ong are about normal in
the good and bad department.
They have their days, moments
when I would gladly disown the
lot of them but for the
most part they are just average
kids with the same weaknesses as
other humans,
Then there are days when
something happens to make me
appreciate my kids . . . and at
the same time fear for them lest
they fall into some of the
terrible habits waiting for
mankind to experience. I had
just such an occasion the other
day and I want to tell you about
it.
I was walking down the street
in my town. I was just lagging
along, not really thinking of
anything special and not really
caring that I was out of the
scene and the action of the
moment.
Eventually I was aware of a
conversation going on in rather
ear-shattering pitch and my
attention was drawn to a group
of youngsters about the age of
10 or 12 years. They were
mounted on bikes the way boys
are in the springtime and
shouting back and forth at each
other.
There seemed to be an
argument. I would say there was
one' boy in the crowd who was
disliked by the others . , . . and
he was getting the rub. Up to
that point, I wasn't worried. The
noise didn't concern me, nor did
the argument because I know
how kids banter back and forth
when they are angry.
Suddenly the words became
audible . . quite audible. And
what I heard and couldn't shut
out was a stream of obscenity
such as you wouldn't expect to
hear at the wildest adult party,
It wasn't cursing, It was plain
and utter filth and I was
sickened by the tone of it.
As the cyclists moved away —
maybe two or three blocks — the
shouting continued. There was
no mistaking the words and
there was no end to them until I
finally turned in at my
destination and dosed the door
behind me.
Now I'm not a prude, I'm not
so naive as to believe that kids
don't know most of the facts of
life. Heaven knows we try to
keep them informed through the
third-rate sex movies and trashy
CBC-type tripe we call drama.
What leaves me cold is the
utter disregard these kids
displayed for the feelings of
others who might be within
earshot. Whether it was the
age-old attempt to feel grown-up
through mimic or whether it was
nothing more than foul-mouthed
children letting loose, I was
appalled to think that I had to
be subjected to this kind of
episode and more than that, that
my children are probably
enjoying a steady diet of this
kind of conversation and coming
to believe it is just ordinary
language.
When I arrived home, I
immediately set upon my
children, I told them of the
picnic in the street and
explained to them the difference
between back alley prattle
quietly spoken among
acquaintances who were
similarly minded and screaming
it' out in a public street forcing
all pedestrians to listen.
My eldest son nodded
knowingly. I didn't give up. I
was hepped up on the idea of
teaching my kids right from
wrong and I was going to pursue
it until I got an answer.
Finally I got my answer.
"Mom, why do you think
everybody acts the same?" came
the reply.
And for the first time that
evening I had faith in my kids
again and realized that maybe —
just maybe — I was doing my job
as a parent,

The students of Grades 6, 7,
and 8 at A/M Hugh Campbell
School, Adastral Park, have
taken on a new project, — that
of writing each week, the
Adastral Park column for the
Clinton News-Record.
It all began with the Creative
Composition classes doing a
study of the various types of
writing required within different
sections of a newspaper. From
this the students then decided to
print their own newspaper. The
amount of material submitted
was overwhelming, and well
beyond the publishing limits of a
school newspaper.
Since the regular
News-Record correspondent
from Adastral Park had been
transferred during the summer
of 1970, it appeared to be a
good opportunity to have the
students take on the work of
reporting the local news, thereby
_fulfillieg the ,double, purpose of

BANTAM GAME
On March 19, the Bantams
played to a 2-2 tie against the
London Bantam team. In the
first period London scored two
goals. Two penalties were given
to the Base in the first period.
Each team received one penalty
in the second period. In the
third period two penalties were
given to the Base and one to
London.
Two goals were scored for the
Base by Rick Green, assisted by
Peter Walden, and Danny Page,
unassisted. Base penalties were
to Pete Walden, Danny Johnston
and Butch Heipel, who each got
one penalty for the Base, while
Rick Green got two.
*
On March 19, the Base Pee
Wees played the London All-Star
suggestion, and so the project
began.
The first thing to be done was
to establish a definite routine,
since there were a large number
of students involved. For the
first two weeks the classes, as a
whole, composed the first
sentence of each story, trying
out various ways of arranging, as
much as possible, the five W's
(who, what, where, when, why)
within the first sentence. Then a
volunteer would complete the
write up. Before long, each
student became reasonably
adept at writing the important
`first sentence', so individuals
took over the complete write-up.
Reporters are assigned to
specific events on a volunteer
basis, with each grade having an
equal chance to participate. On
Tuesday of each week, a paper.
titled Events For This Week, is
posted at the main hallway
intersection. Anyone knowing of
coming events .. for the week is
asked to list the event and the
date. Reporters are then
assigned, with the reporter's
name listed beside the event to
be covered. There are also
`back-up' reporters who have
volunteered to be available on
short notice. Some of the
students have also listed their
names as volunteers to collect
the news reports, and have them
proof-read by Monday afternoon
of each week. The complete
write-up then goes to the
Composition teacher for a final
checking. From there the reports
go to the school secretary who

The second game, between
Goderich and Waterloo ended in
a win for Waterloo, with a score
of 11-8. The next game,
between Adastral Park and
Goderich ended in a 6-3 win for
Goderich. Base goals ' were by

went to Cpl. R. Putnam for
holding and Cpl, L. Therriault

visiting teams, and trophies were
presented to each team in the
order of standing.

the first two hockey games
reported, somehow became one
game in printed form. The first
game was a Huron Park win over
the Base Novice team by a score
of 4-0, while the second game
was a Base Mite win against
Clinton Mites by a score of
15-0.

How Adastral Park news is gathered
types them in readiness to be
handed' into the News-Record
office on Tuesday afternoon.
After the paper has been
published, the Adastral Park
column is cut out, mounted on
bristol-hoard, and posted also at
the hallway intersection. The
names of the reporters and
organizers for that particular
week are then listed beside the
news column.
Naturally some of the
students are more interested in
this type of project than are
others, but all of them take
pride in this 'group effort'. It is
quite conceivable that this could
be the first step in a career for
some of these young people.
