the Goderich dump forever!
Laving followed with interest
in the Goderich Signal -Star the
progression (?) of the dump
issue, I was suddenly struck, as if
from on high, with inspiration.
The. following,, which can °be
sung to the tune of "The Maple
Leaf Forever", is dedicated to
Reeve Worsen, Deputy Reeve
Sheardown, and Councillors
Walkom, Jewell and, Shewfelt.
May they be forever
' remembered, particularly in
future elections. For lack of
divine inspiration . I • call it
merely:
The Goderich
Dump Forever!
Ontario says to move our dump,
To move it now or never.

But five men sing with voices
high:
"The Goderich dump forever!"
These soldiers guard our
heritage:
Tin can, orange peels, old
leather,
And join hands 'round a fire to
sing,
"The Goderich dump forever!"
To them it is old Gibraltar
That's lasted through , . all
weather.
'The Goderich' dump
forever!"
If we count on these five wise
men,
The five that stuck together,,'
Perhaps we'll leave to our
children
The Goderich dump'forever!

The Goderich Minor Hockey'

evenly matched teams than they
did this year in the Squirt House
League. - - ,
Gardiner's, Dairy and
Goderich Electric started a total

championship exactly the way
they finished it 0-0.
To , decide . the contest the
two teams went into overtifne
and it took `another' 40 minutes
of hockey to produce -a- winner.
Goderich Electric finally
emerged on, top and it was Peter
Crew who finallynscored the Ione .
series goal. -
To add to the oddity or the
series it was Peter's first goal of
the year.
Letters to the Fcitor .,
THE FOLLY OF DRUGS
Do the adult).citizens of this
city and surrounding
communities realize the tragic
problem that is now in their
midst?
I know. that they are not
accepting the fact that their own
young people may very well be,
and may I add a lot of them are.
smoking marijuana or using
LSD! Even if they did, there are
very few who would sit down
with their young pe,ople and
sincerely try to help them,
They in turn would either
refuse to believe the fact, or
throw them.out on the street,
witl out a MiM-6: fqr wearing
long hair and associating- with
"hippies."
It's a common fact that
nobody, is `perfect. Can the
parents really , criticize and
condemn?
As the paraphrased Gospels
interpret the Bible, St, Luke
6:41,42.
41. "And why quibble about
the speck in someone else's eve
nus little fault — when a board is
in your own."
42. "How can you think of
saying to him, "Brother, let me
help you get rid of the speck in
your eye" when you can't, see
past the board in your's.
Hypocrite! First get rid of the
board frryours, and then perhaps
you can see well enough to deal
with his speck with Love and
Understanding."
These young people need
Help, Love and • •Christian
understanding, not jail and
disciplined hatred! They are not
hardened criminals. Is the
answer really a lengthy prison
.term and a criminal record for
experimenting with a drug not as.
harmful as alcohol? 'All they are
really doing is experimenting.
Someone must help them.
Someone with love and
understanding - not a spirit of
condemnation. - Someone who
has been in drugs and knows
what they feel, who knows what
it is to be "high" and on the
"ultimate .trip." ' But also.
someone who has 'found Jesus
Christ and has been born again.
These young people need Jesus
Christ as their personal Lord and
Saviour as did I.
I ,found Jesus Christ and by
Omitting my guilt, I accepted
nine as my personal. Lord. and
Saviour. f 'Mow what these
young people are going through,
for I ,myself lived as a "hippie"
and •gym coming up for trial in
Owen Sound for trafficking in
narcotics. I was sure at one time
"long hair and drugs" were the
"in' thing," But now I have
found God. and I know better.
As the -Bible quotes in 1
Corinthians 2:14 "Doth not
even nature itself teach you, that
if a man have long hair, it is a
shame untq him?" Young people
think upon these words and then
. decide if you're really on the
• right track! I wasn't. Thank you.
