HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1967-10-26, Page 5From My Window Now not so sure Shirlev Keller Appoint director at Ag. school Present Clinton News-Record, Thursday, Oct, 26, 1967 T To say that the birth control pill is as popular now as aspirin may be a slight exaggeration, but there is jittle doubt left tin anyone’s . . that the tiny wonders are In. sdem?nd at the pharmacies across the nation. Purchased^in lots of' 100 to be fitted into.: handy dispensers .•which defyrer,rors, the pill is ■heralded -asMhe answer to the world’s population problems if you can educate the masses to swallow them, that is,’ At the present'time though, there are indications that the miracle drug is attractive to the com­ fortable few who could afford to support-several more young­ sters andf’iuuinteresting to cou­ ples who-"; can ihardly sustain their own bodies and souls let alone those of their' ten-going- on-eleven children.______ Seme people say the pill will" eventually defeat the purpose for which it was intended. Since oral contraceptives are just nuisances to folks with small capacity to care about anything except their personal pleasures, it is thought that when the world is teeming with indolent folks the wiser but weakened minority will have to work like slaves to maintain <some semblance of balance. AIT this didn’t worry me too much, I thought that as long as the human element figured at all, enough mistakes would be recorded annually to keep everything on an even keel. Add to this number the men and women who wanted. and planned, for' more kids, plus .those couples who rejected use of the pill for one reason or another and I was certain that all would be well for years to come. Now I’m net so sure. I remember laughing with the rest of the crowd when the ‘ elderly farmer rose to his feet at the banquet and drawled, ‘‘birth control won’t be 100 per cent until someone comes up with the pill to correct .last night’s mistake”. That was last month, month, it’s no joke, -for a pill HAS been discovered which they claim will curtail preg­ nancy up to one month after conceptidn. As one doctor- speaking in support of the pill noted, it, must’t be consid­ ered an abortion drug but -sim­ ply something “to bring on menstruation”. Now I’m, worried. Not only does the new pill correct the mistakes of the old pill, but it leaves itself an iron-clad “out” with religious groups -and sects who .oppose such things on moral grounds and comes on very strong with the average intelligent, couple thqt wants babies—but not top many. It seems to me that we could be headed, toward serious trou­ ble if we tamper too much with ■the departments which have always been managed by the Man Upstairs. Certainly man’s wisdom and the materials with Which he works come to him through the goodness of God, but that doesn’t allow him com­ plete freedom to disregard -all those things which down through the centuries have been held sacred. Birth control is'.sensible — even necessary, Like other good things though,' it can be abused. When this happens, we’re leaving -ourselves open for all sorts of surprises of the unpleasant vm’Wv HOLMESVILLE Appointment of Miss Mary McGhee, as Associate Dir­ ector1 (Home Economics) at the Centralia School of Agricul­ ture and Home Economics, . was announced by Everett Biggs, Deputy Minister . of Agriculture and Food re­ cently.
