Mr. McQuail pointed out to Mr. Dykstra that the freedom we enjoy is two-sided; to practice Christianity or to not, can not be imposed upon you by the school system. The issue has become not just one of personal value but of public as well. It was suggested to Mr. Dykstra that he attend the H.C.B.E. meet­ ing next month to follow up with his concerns and that hopefully they would have more answers for him at that time. 5 plead guilty to stealing antiques Rev.

Editor's Letter Continued from page 4 should realize that Canada is a democracy, based on free speech and that Canadians are mature enough not to let words in a book sway them. We Canadians, meanwhile, should stop being manipulated by our own fears and ignorance of a foreign culture. We should put this whole thing in its proper perspec­ tive and get back to our usual way of life. 7 tables at Auburn euchre There were seven tables in play at the euchre party held at the Community Hall on February 28.

But Mr. Caldwell said he thought it was about three months ago his department did first approach council but the idea wasn’t formally presented to council until this month.

Sunshine Sale Five Kitchener residents pleaded guilty in Provincial Court in Wing­ ham Feb. 22 to stealing furniture from an abandoned East Wawa- nosh township farmhouse. Stephen Patrick O’Connor, Garry Paul Neugebaurer, Peter Michael Neugebaurer, Mitchell Iza and Yvonne Iza were all given a discharge with no criminal record and 12 months probation by Judge R.G.E. Hunter on the recommen­ dation of Crown Attorney Allan Mill who described the group as “very co-operative” with police. The court was told Constable Thompson of the Wingham Ontario Provincial Police (O.P.P.) was pa­ trolling on the 12th concession of East Wawanosh about 1:15 p.m. on Sunday, January 29 when he saw a van and a pickup turn out of a little used sideroad. On closer inspection he saw some old furniture in the back of the pickup. After stopp­ ing the vehicles he discovered a cherry drop-leaf table and other furniture valued at $500 but which would have had a much higher value when refinished. The group admitted to driving country roads looking for abandoned farmhouses from which they could take articles of value. The furniture in question came from a home belonging to | Dale Breckenridge of Lot 22, | concession 2, Morris township. The house was “wide open” Mr. Mills said and gave the appearance of being abandoned property. He asked for a discharge with no criminal record and a fine “on the low end of the scale.” Most of the business of the courts was taken up with liquor and drug offences and those driving while their licences were already under suspension. Brian Johnston received a jail sentence of 45 days to be served on weekends and a three year prohibition from driving after pleading guilty to driving while illegally intoxicated in a case going back to March 7, 1987 when he was caught in a spot check in Turnberry township. It was his second conviction for driving with more than 80 mg. per 100 ml. of blood. Derek D. Tanner, formerly of RR 2, Brussels and now of Milverton pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated. The court was told that on Thursday, Dec. 10, 1988 at 11:10 p.m. Murray Blake found a car in the middle of a Grey township road with the defendent asleep at the wheel. After moving the car to the side of the road Mr. Blake called police. When Constables McDonald and Hunter of the Wingham O.P.P. arrived at the scene they found the defendent asleep at the wheel with a partially-finished bottle of beer between his legs. On his two breath tests he registered 190 and 200 mg., well over the limit of 80 mg. Judge Hunter sentenced him to a fine of $750 and a driving licence suspension of 12 months. Bruce Wayne Boyd of RR 2, Brussels pleaded guilty to driving with a blood alcohol rating over the limit and possession of marijuana after being caught June 10, 1988 in a spot check on County Road 12. He was given a fine of $750 and a 12-month driver’s licence suspen­ sion on the first charge and a $100 fine on the second. John Rutledge of RR 3, Wing­ ham pleaded guilty on one charge of driving while his licence was under suspension and a second of not having valid insurance on the vehicle after being stopped in a spot check on Dec. 17, 1988. He had had his licence suspended on January 27, 1988. He was fined the minimum of $300 for not having insurance and sentenced to 30 days for driving while his licence was under suspension, to be served on a temporary absence program.
