days in jail when he appeared

Linington stated that he had just
obtained his discharge from 'the
army on June 21.
The court was told that the store
.prQpr.ie.tor's_ son,.. returning home
at night, disturbed Lin:ngton as
he sought to enter the building.
Linington ,made , a break for it,
but later was found laying on the
roof of a nearby barn. Members
of the Goderieh Police Department
and the OPP took part in the
investigation.
In Linington's possession, police
found such items as a glass cutter,
flashlight and rubber gloves. The

DELINQUENCY
RISING
"The sudden rise in the number
of juvenile delinquents in the To-
ronto area -25 per cent in a year
—is a matter of concern.' We
quote from a recent editorial in
the Globe and Mail. The Editor
suggests -as- probable causes of
the sudden rise, changes in social
conditions, broken homes, too
much money, bad housing.
The Editor's concern is obvious,
but surely his diagnosis is super-
ficial. Broken homes and changes
in social. conditions are certainly
important factors. But dig deep,
er Mr. Editor. What lies behind
homes? We all know that alcohol-
ism is directly responsible for
these factors, especially broken
multitudes of broken homes.
In Canada we now' have seven
million adults who drink. Four
hundred and twenty thousand of
these are problem drinkers. One
in 17 adult drinkers becomes al-
coholic. Ontario has 76,000. alto=
holi'cs • Toronto 14,000. •
Reliable statistics are to hand
regarding` the relation 'between
juvenile delinquency and alcohol-
ism An France. Three out of four
delinquent children, are those of
alcoholics. Our authority is Dor-
othy Thompson
Alcoholisra'n in Frenchman and
Canadian is the same tragic evil.

Minister Lists Don'ts
For Married Couples
Movies 'and television are to he
blamed for, giving many young
People tile, wrong ideas about mar-
ried life, Rev. Roderick Murray,
86, said in an interview here.
Mr. Murray, a uGoderich native
who now lives at Dowagiac, Mich.,
said that movies and TV have . led
young couples to_ believe that mar-
riage is one long honeymoon—"a
series of passionate interludes."
There is far more to marriage,
than that, he stated.
"For marriage and love to en-
dure," he said, "a couple must have
respect, trust and willingness to
share responsibilities. Working
toward a common goal is the only
way to keep a couple happy and
avoid a breakdown in the marriage
rel tions,"
> . Murray's own married life
lasted for 63 years until the death
of his wife last November. She
was the former Margaret Murray)
a native of Bayfield.
Lists Don'ts
Mr. Murray listed a few don'ts
which nsust be observed, he said,
if married life is to retain its
romance:
"Don't crab or lose your temper.
"Don't nag or. thiink'the faults
are all on one side.
"Don't be suspicious, for suspic-
ion is a dynamite that will explode
and blow the marriage relationship
to pieces. After the explosion, the
pieces are hard to put together.
"Don't fault find. Look for the
best in each other. Fault finding
grows with use and soc+u happiness
is +banished from life, and romance
diesean unnatural death. Its bur-
ial takes place in divorce pro-
ceedings."
Mr. Murray advised, "No mar-
riage will last long where affection
is allowed to wane. Ap preciation
is a gift --the best gift married
people can give to each other."
He made one further observaticn
based on his many years of ex-
perience. "If married life is le
stand the strains and stresses of
everyday living, married people
musttake time to pray," he stated.
When a young man in Goderich,
Mr. Murray decided to join the
Salvation Army. He served with
that organization in Barrie, Peter-
borough and Toronto before enter-
,
ing the ministry of the United
Church.
Later, he served nearly 40 years
in the Rock River Conference of
the Methodist Church. For 16
years, he was in Chicago.
When he decided that retirement
time had arrived, he ,bought a
sununiex Nesort in Michigan. De-
spite his advanced years, he is "as
agile as a cricket" and still accepts
calls to preach on special occasions.
When he called in Goderieh a
few days ago, he was rnajting his
first visit here in several years.
He admitted that few of his old
'11 e -DAY„ AUGUST 145th, 1057
acquaintances are left, but there
are some, lake John aker for
instance.
Mr. Murray and his late wife
raised three children,who all
graduated from -university. One
daughter is living, but two so+r s
are dead. •
