We invite you to worship with 118.1 THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1967 From My Window If we Pof 1967 think that ours is the only generation to have considered sex education in the schools, then perhaps we should know that a collection of cen- tury -old school texts reveals that while teachers may not have spelled out the mysteries of growing up to their young students, they certainly had the reference material in case the kids had "problems". One such book published in 1853 and used in Ontario schools was "Happy Homes and How to Make Them". Apparently this little hard -covered prize touch- ed on most every phase of mar- riage from the spouse hunt be- fore the wedding to the first spat after the honeymoon. It was from literature like this that grandpa learned what to look for in a wife and how to get the most out of her when he'd found her. From the same book, grandma was instructed in womanliness and wifery. When grand -daddy was a teenager, he was warned by his trusty handbook on wife hunt- ing to "mind where you pick her up". Theory back in the nineteenth century seemed to be not so much if you should or By Shirley Keller indeed how you should "pick up" a young lady, but rather if she was from the right side of the tracks. It is wonder to me that any young man ever found a girl, for it has always been niy con- tention that if a miss is a prop- er miss (as you would expect to ,find in a proper home on on the right side of town), then she is reluctant to be picked up by the King of Siam himself. Further, unless "pick up" in 1853 was drastically different from "pick up" in 1967, a book advising young men to commit such an act was asking for a string of broken homes to fol- low in its wake. It is a proven fact that the fellow who will "pick up" a girl is headed for marital unhappiness, because chances are he has never learned "the art of tom -fool- ery". He may have been able to persuade her to get into the buggy, but he'll never be able to convince her she was only one he persuaded. Right off the bat he's given her grounds for nagging, And what advice was there for the young lady in love? "Know something about him,' said the book. Find someone "respectable, careful, provident and moral" said the book. Unless women in those times were a strange breed, a lady's beloved would be a knight on a white charger in her eyes. No woman in love is responsi- ble enough to make a rational investigation of the qualities her man possesses. Better she would learn how to manoeuvre him to do her will, cook up a storm to keep him home, dress so he's glad he stayed and stick with him when he has to be out. Such lessons back then may have served some purpose but give me today's "sex" education where we teach the kids some- thing about themselves, some- thing about the opposite sex, something about the world .. and send them forth with our blessings—and trust—to experi- ence living.
