It is a social problem and it has been a problem for decades --cen- turies, if you wish. May I suggest Haat, instead of the type of criticism that has come from the Opposition benches today about things that have abso- lutely 110 bearing On the overall aspect of this serious situation, that they join in terms of the ex- pression of the hon. member for Woodbine, and those who sit on the side of government, in an ef- fort to improve this situation, im- prove it because it eau stand a constant appraisal, constant et - forts to 'o •ts improve it. The type's of criticism that we have heard this afternoon contra. Bute nothing to the improvement of this situation. Meanwhile, Mit•. Chairman, may I say only that, until we find something better in an intelligent, determined effort for improve- ment, let us have no relaxatiou of the present controls as they exist in this province today. Mfr. Whieher: Mr- Chairman, I would like to ask the lion, metn- ber a question. It is simply this. Did the good people of Iluron and Perth vote for the present liquor laws of the province of Ontario, or did they vote against The Can- ada Temperance Act? Mr. MaoNaughton: Mr. Chair- man, they were offered a ohoice, Mr. Whicher: It would he eith- er yes or no. Tliey voted tor The Canada Temperance Act or against it. Mr, MacNaughton: They voted for legal control, Mr, Chairman, that is my answer to the hon. member. They voted for legal con- trol which they did not have be- fore—and which prompted me to say, and I hope he heard me— that we should at least retain the control measttres we have now without any relaxation of them, and improve them troth there on if we can. I might add before I sit 'down, the hon, member can maize as good a contribution to that situa- ation as anybody, instead of the type of criticism we have heard from the Opposition benches to- day. 10 -IS 1pfla013 I S S `1.../ APRIL I2t to 15th.

The average teen-agers are am- bitions and full of energy. In or- der to keep up some of this ener- gy, I think all teen-agers should have a hobby. For some teen-agers reading is the best hobby. This is a wonderful pastime. Here, the person uses his creative powers. I enjoy art exceedingly. For relaxa- *loo, it is the ideal thing. Still other teenagers prefer writing. I consider this the best of all hob- bies, for in writing stories and poems, the person expresses his feelings and thoughts and shares them with 'others. It is a wonder - tut feeling to know one has ac- complished something. There are many other activities and hobbies such as sports, musical achieve- ments, yes, even studying, that occupy the growing minds of young teen-agers profitably.

For aren't teen-agers vitally alive, joyfully exuberant and glee- fully enterprising? These young people should try to make their community proud of them be their achievements, loyalty, sin- cerity, charity and good behavior. In the school, teenagers learn to share with others. They also acquire the important habits of accepting responsibilities, using their initiative, and developing their talents, so that they may be able to help their fellow men with the gifts God has given thele. In the home teenagers should practise kindness, obedience and patience at all times. They should brighten the home and bring pride and joy to their parents, A.11 their uvea they have been kind, loving, understanding and gaper- oats. 1 feel sure any good qualities I have obtained came from them.
