About needs of young generation
you must face it day by day, but
you must also accept "reality."
Kathy Kirk
without bad publicity.. Today's
youth is maturing at an earlier
age average, but the stages of life
are all moving into a younger
average,
Reality is in the mind of youth,
Please, don't just look at us; stop
and talk, face reality.
Exeter youth needs your
support.
Diane Edwards
no.,. has a people who. follow no
book but the Bible, who are
without spot and blameless (Eph,
5:27) through whom He can
manifest His power and love as in
the early church,
"Heaven is a holy place, filled
with glory and with grace,
Sin can never enter there,
It will stop you at the door
Bar you out forever more
Sin can never enter there."
This may help to explain why
the "churches" miss opportunity,

Dear Editor a
I would like to comment on
Facts n' Fancies article
"churches miss opportunity," in
February 10 paper.
It should be clear that if people
today had the same experience
that the early church had (and
God is no respecter of persons)
there would be similar results.
Their being filled with the Holy
Spirit on the day of Pentecost
gave them the poWer of God -
Dynamite - and they were not
afraid of men or devils.
They had a perfect salvation -
here and now - deliverance from
sin and filled with God's Spirit -
giving them joy unspeakable and
full of glory, a peace that passeth
understanding, and the perfect
love of God in their hearts, so
they could live holy lives and
have His blessing upon them.
Why shouldn't they be
exuberant with joy and zealous in
labours?
There was only one church -
that is all God needs. He is the
Head and Organizer. He (not
man) takes in the members (Acts
2, 47), all and only saved people.
He also blots out those who sinjor
His standard in Holiness ( Heb.
12:14, Eph. 1:4, I Pet. 1:15, 16 and
many more) and He has made
adequate provision for His people
to live above sin by the power
with one faith, one Lord, one
baptism, knit together in love.
This excludes all denomination
systems organized by man, As
one great reformer said, all sects
are an insult to God. When human
machinery moves in, God moves
out, Creeds divide, God's Spirit
unifies. If a letter were addressed
to "The Church" at Exeter, Ont.
where would it go?
If preachers like Peter and
Paul came to Exeter and
preached the Bible standard of
perfect salvation, and healed sick
and crippled bodies, they would
be persecuted by many religious
people. This happened in Bible
days and around 1900 - and
since.

Dear Editor:
The youth of Exeter have a
great need to have their interests
drawn out and gathered together,
youth by youth. We realize that
there are people trying to start
crafts etc .. at the arena.
Their idea is splendid, but the
atmosphere kills the keeness to
get involved, as far as the youth
of today is concerned. We are not
condemning these people for
trying to start these things; this
shows that they realize the need,
just not in the right way.
There is our park and it is good
looking. The town has coloured it
with flowers and just in 1971,
purchased birds! It is very
scenic; the visitors love it. I feel
why buy birds and pay for
storage for the winter months
and for feed all year round. Plus
the loss because of vandals or
nature. They are non-profit! Just
because they look nice!
If the young people all looked
as nice in the eyes of society;
maybe we'd get along with
everyone as well as the birds do.
Face reality; youth is part of
society and we need the support
of everyone in this community to
make our part of society; good,
clean, and healthy.
This brings us back to the need
for the right atmosphere for the
youth in this town. Right now we
have the restaurants and pool
hall to sit or gather to talk.
What we need is a coffee shop,
run by the youth. Covering under
one roof interests such as crafts,
darts, chess, ping-gong, drama,
card games (non-gambling),
etc. . . . The shop could have
tables and sell coffee, donuts,
chips etc. . . , similar to the
Missing Piece in Grand Bend.
We need a one floor building
preferably, with at least three
rooms, depending. Having dif-
ferent activities in each.
This would not be a drop-in
centre, The admittance should be
the town youth and visitors when
accompanied.
We can sell our crafts, putting
the money back into crafts,
recycle glass, walkathons, car
washes, etc .
Rules and regulations put forth
and administered by youth can be
very stiff because of the effort
put forth to obtain and the want to
keep something like this going,

Dear Editor:
I don't really know how to start
this letter, but I guess the best
place is at the beginning,
To begin with, everyone in
Exeter knows that there is a
generation gap between the
young and old. When a boy has
long hair, faded blue jeans, he's
classified as a hippie, right?
Don't say no, because no one ever
really says it aloud, but under
your breath I can imagine what is
being said.
A girl who wears no bra, faded
blue jeans, boys' black and white
running shoes, etc, is also
classified as a hippie, right?
Again, don't say no, because I
have talked to several older
people on this subject and finally
they admitted, most teenagers
are hippies as they see them,
What's a hippie? A boy with
long hair: a girl with no bra and
both sexes wearing old (maybe
new) faded blue jeans. As soon as
a person hears this word, he or
she automatically associates the
person as a speed freak, acid
head, or just an individual that
takes "dope." Alcohol is a drug
because it affects the mind and
body and becomes, in many
cases, addicting.
Glue, aspirins and peanut
butter are drugs, Peanut butter a
drug? Yes! Have you never
heard of people getting so hard
up, that they shoot peanut butter?
If you haven't, you'd better start
reading the papers, magazines
and understand the human mind.
Don't ask me how they shoot
peanut butter through a needle,
because I don't know.
The reason I wrote the
preceding is because of the gap
between teenagers and older
persons--say 23 years of age and
older, and 23 years and under.
This gap is not as dominant in
some situations as others. How
many of you citizens have sat
down and actually talked to your
teenage son or daughter about
their outlook on life, reality,
prejudice and so on? Not too
many, eh? Well try it some day
before it is too late. Too late for
what?
There is nothing to do in this
small town except gossip a lot
about everybody and their dog.
If there is nothing to do, then
why not drink, why not try drugs,
why not become a 'hippie'. If
"there's nothin' else to do", is not
a good enough reason to use
alcohol, drugs, etc. then could
you kindly tell me what is? Sure,
you may have family problems,
is Asht, , something,.. ,but the
Biggest mason is "lack 'of gocial
activites.
I was told by certain high class
people that thousands of dollars
are being put out by the town for
the teenager here in Exeter,
What does this money go into?
Beautifying the parks with
.needless ducks, which must be
protected in winter months.
The swimming pool is not that
well organized either. Why?
Because of too many small
children at the deep end. If you
want to dive, it must be off the
one end only. This creates a
problem, because as I said, too
many small children are at the
deepest end.
These people said all these
thousands of dollars are spent on
kids like myself. There is bingo,
bowling, lawn bowling, skating,
etc. This is nice to know, because
after all, no one really ap-
preciates falling over little kids
while skating, and mostly older
people lawn bowl,
Of the teens, who really has the
money to spend on the high prices
of bowling and bingo?
What I'm really trying to say in
this letter is that the teenagers
need a place to go, a place to
express themselves, a place to
keep them off the streets at
nights.
Since the roller skating rink
to A number of states require
motorcycles to use both front
and rear lights when
operating on public highways.
has been demolished and the
theatre, being replaced, the only
place left on week nights is the
pool hall for the boys and the
restaurants for the girls,
On weekends, anymore that is,
there are house parties. When
someone hears about someone
having a co-ed party, the first
thing that pops into their minds is
sex, dope and alcohol, respec-
tively.
If you must know, we
teenagers have minds of our
own and we do have some in-
telligence, We don't all go
somewhere for a sex orgy, or pot
party, we discuss life, ourselves
and other subjects as war, love,
prejudism: almost everything.
For the past couple of weeks,
some of my friends and I have
been trying to establish a "Youth
Centre" sort of thing.
Okay, so it failed in some towns
around here, but if we get a good
start on this centre, then maybe it
could carry on successfully for us
and the teeny-boppers (ages
10-15) in later years.
Our first problem is location. A
bit of persuasion and confidence
of no vandalism and the sort; this
could be arranged.
The second problem money.
We could have donations till we
get rolling, or else if there are
none, then we will sacrifice
several things for this.
Curtains, old furniture, can-
dles, will not be hard to make or
request from salvage.
Money is not a main source.
Several things can be made by
the individuals. It may take time
but if we get enough confidence
and supporters, it just may work.
Fund raising campaigns may
be held, walkathons and from the
arts and crafts section, items
may be purchased.
This is what we need in Exeter.
There could be a coffee shop, arts
and crafts, a sitting room to talk,
a chess game, cards, darts and
maybe even the art of yoga.
We wouldn't need chaperones,
because we would have our
system of bouncers, prefects and
people doing off jobs. There
would be no drugs or alcohol at
all. If the police decided to check
it out, they can go right ahead.
But, if they found drugs, people
would want the place closed
down, You've got to realize that
we can't check everyone that
comes in the door and if it got
raided we would be able to do
absolutely nothing about it.
We would want people to drop
in and see how we're doing, what
we're doing and keep in mind
WHY we're doing. "There's
nothin' else to do" so we decided
to do something useful with
ourselves.
Sure, we teenagers have our
faults also, but,,we are trying to
correct them as life goes on. In
future years, we'll be against
these hippies (when we are
married and have our own
children) but if we can get
something going here, now, it
may be ready, for the next
generation.
In writing this letter, I hope no
one feels that I am a hypocrite
against the smaller children and
the older generation because I'm
not.
Its just that we, as teenagers,
feel it is our duty to help each
other individually or as a group.
Helping each other now, maybe
in the next few years there won't
be such a noticeable gap in the
generations.
I've not cutup or made fun of
anyone or any social group. I've
said things because it is the truth
about Exeter and we are sick of
doing nothing.
Read this article over and at
least begin to realize the absolute
truth of the community. We must
all learn to face war, peace, love,
descrimination, prejudicism and
life the way it really is.
Remember, life must go on, but
