Dear. Readers:.. (continued from page 4) "But today, a °square is a guy who volunteers when he doesn't have to. He's a guy who gets his kicks from trying to do a job better than anyone else. He's a boob who gets so lost in his work, he has to be reminded to go home. He hasn't learned .to cut corners or goof off. This nut we call a square gets all choked up when he hears children singing "My Country 'Tis of Thee." He even believes in God, and says so, in public. "A square is a guy who lives within his means, whether the Joneses do or not, and thinks his Uncle Sam should too. He doesn't want to "fly now and pay later." A square is likely.to save some of his own money for a rainy day, rather than count on using yours. A square gets books out of the library in- stead of the dirug tore Hr. Letters to the editor... myself. As Head of the Mathematics Department at Goderich District Collegiate Institute, I am one of your own employees. I am the father of three children and a resident of Goderich Township. 1 am a disciple Jesus the Christ, the son- of the living God. It is through this God -man Jesus, who gave his life for all of us, that my life-style and my system of values have been tran- sformed. It is through Him that 1 now enjoy a personal relationship with God. It is through Him that I have a growing inward peace and a victory. over circumstances. It is through Him that the blind eyes of my un- derstanding received spiritual sight, and the Bible came alive as the only reliable source of truth. The name of Jesus Christ and the name of His father God, separately and together mean everything to me that is Holy, just, loving, corn - passionate, beautiful, uplifting and true: It is therefore, not surprising that when either one or both Q these two Holy names are blasphemed 1 feel a deep hurt tells his son it's more im- portant to play fair than to win. Imagine! "A square is a guy who reads the Scripture when nobody's listening. He wants to see America first in everything. He believes in honoring Mother and Father, and "Do Unto Others" and that kind of stuff. "So. will all of you who answer this description please stand up?

Perhaps it is something like having your closest friend openly insulted and treated with contempt. 1 am not hereto make any demands. 1 have come to speak to you about two im- portant truths that are directly involved in the issue under-- consideration, and which, to niy knowledge, have not yet been presentee. The first truth is that it is possible, in fact it is easy, to satisfy every 'truly wor- thwhile educational objective in our Secondary School English programme without using reading material which is blasphemous, profane, obscene, vulgar or por- nographic. If this kind of reading material is required to fulfil some e'ducatiotral objective, then that objective is not truly worthwhile. There is no shortage of excellent reading material. There is so much clean and high quality literature on the market today that there is no necessity to even consider hooks that use borderline or questionable vocabulary. One of the important general aims of a Secondary "School education is to help our young people understand and be prepared for the real world This worthwhile aim need nut be compromised; :indeed it needs even greater emphasis than before. This is why I strongly support the value of accurate and prudent sex education in the Secon- dary School curriculum, It is highly desirable that the whole spectrum of human behaviour patterns and alternative life-styles be discreetly examined in terms of consequences. This can best be handled without the distraction of objectionable vocabulary. The second truth is that the pressure group in this case is not Lloyd I3ur'th and a group of concerned parents; the real pressure group is society itself. "('hank you Lloyd and your group for prodding collective conscience. As a county Board of Education you are experiencing pressure created by the conflict between your own conscience and the ex- pectations of today's society. Because limiting positions on what is considered to be acceptable are chan;ing so quickly, the expectations of today's society at any given time never seem to be very clearly defined. Our enlightened society is In- fused about moral issues. The popular philosophies commonly called "Relativistic Morality" and "Situational Ethics" have tended to cloud the im- mutable absolutes of God's moral law. Man cannot change God's laws; he can only ignore` them to his own destruction. When the automobile hits the tree, God's physical las make the result entirely predictable. We. have been created ac- cording to God's moral laws, and when we violate them, no reassuring philosophy will serve to alter the con- sequences. Society has no moral an- chor. When the media require more money to operate, the problem is easily solved by lowering the moral standards of acceptability in order to satisfy the .appetites of a vocal, avid, demanding minority. At first the silent majority is inwardly displeased. but because they are so accustomed to change the adjustment is quickly made and thus the respec- table general public become more apathetic and silent than ,ever. This is why those who decide to take a public stand for what is right• and true are one often than not a very s all minority, as history has so repeatedly den strafed. There are many more truths that are related to this issue, but due to the length of your agenda today, I have selected only these two for your consideration. Now in conclusion, 1 wish to make a few comments. Last Monday evening it was stated that there is no cause for complaint because students who object to studying certain boojts on moral grounds may be given an acceptable substitute, It should be clear that this is not an acceptable solution hecause a student who chose the substitute would forfeit the classroom interaction with the teacher and his fellow students, which is, of course, an integral part of the learning experience.
