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."

February 15 the Lucan- * Clandeboye C.G.I.T, girls met in the C.E. building of the Lucan United Church. The meeting opened with a riddle followed by the learning of a new song "Life Railways to Heaven". Lynn Stanley led the group in song, After the discussion of the • meaning of prayer, Karen Mason led the group in prayer. The girls then went to their individual groups. The senior girls had a discussion on "abortion". They heard a tape on "Robert Mossatt ,0 Comes to Africa" for mission study. The junior girls discussed Honesty and listened to a tape "A Slave Girl of Madagascar." A home project was given on Collecting Clippings on "Responsibility" and making up A) a list of questions for the ministers to be interviewed. The junior 13 group discussed further plans for their Bible drama for March 7. The meeting closed with the girls forming a circle with an 8' dge awte4 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. *eece 0,qee deo 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, fr -4( USED CARS 1969 SPITFIRE III, yellow with black top, Michelin tires, radio.

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.
