The members later gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs, Jake Reder for an evening of- euchre1 and dancing’. I hadn’t intended making_ any comment on the Steven. Trus­ cott case but after reading the comment in the Huron Shop­ ping News which I understand is published under the direction of the editor of the Signal-Star Eastertide Poems From The Latest B.P. Times We have the latest issue of "Grade 8: the B.P. Times, Bayfield’s own school newspaper, composed by •the students and edited by Pat Sparks. It upholds oui’ firm convic­ tion that the youth of today, under the veneer of Beatle- mania and being told that “the young people of today aren’t what they used to be”, are still as conscious of the true meaning of Easter, as their counterparts of former years. Among printed on these: Grade 7; wee eggs “Eastertide” Eastertide brings to a child's mind, Big white bunnies and ■to find.

Just touch the button With your elbow.” "And’ Why should I use my elbow?” “For goodness’ sake, man. you’re not coming empty hand­ ed, are you?” Hemingway we simply say we’re sorry? What is the period in a boy’s life worth between 14 years and 21? Will we make any attempt to compensate the parents for the suffering they have endur­ ed? In this highly clivilized country there is noi provision for any of this1. There have been many cases where persons have been arrested and held1 in jail for long periods because they couldn’t raise bail. Later when proven innocent they were simply turned loose. Finally: if Steven is proven innocent, the killer is still free! . J. Carl I feel something should be said. The article accuses Mrs. Le Bourdais of making a “Vicious Vendetta against Huron, of be­ ing emotional rather than rational.” If this is: true I can only say that the article in the Shopping News is equally vicious and emotional. It seems as if the “Pot is calling the Kettle black”. It is worse than that really, since the Goderich paper is supporting a decision already made. I think it is a recognized fact that it is a great deal easier to support people in a decision that they have made than it is to show them that their decision was incorrect. Let’s keep our heads in this controversy in spite of what appears in some of the papers. The Goderich paper objects to the statement that “Almost everyone was Satisfied”. At that time I spent a good d!ea? of time in and around Clinton yet lived far enough away to be a disinterested spectator. ! My feeling of the situation,, would agree with Mrs. LeBour- dais. Personally it continued to stick in my mlind that this young boy accomplished a tre­ mendous lot in half an hour ■and' sub-consciously I really Wasn’t satisfied but I did noth­ ing. I wonder if I (along with many others) -wasn’t just a little too content to accept the court’s decision. I wasn’t pleased with a boy being tried in an adult court but I, along with many others, sat back and did nothing. I still don’t know what could have been done but surely we could have a little more light on the reason for this action. However, this point is not the most important in the case. What is important and what caused Mrs. LeBourdais to in­ vestigate the evidence was our treatment of young offenders. True, this Was an extreme case With an extreme penalty at­ tached but it just might apply in a great variety of cases. It just isn’t good enough in this day. • It just isn’t reasonable1 that a normal boy of 14 could' be guilty of this crime. If guilty and alb-normal the treatment he received before, during, and after sentence would hardly in­ dicate a humane society. This was the reason Mrs. Le Bourdais became interested. At that time even taking for granted, as we apparently had ■already done, that Steven was guilty, Mrs. LeBourd'ais was willing to try to1 do something, not particularly.- for Steven Truscott, but rather for child offenders generally. We were much closer to the situation, we Should have been concerned. What- if the inquiry finds Steven Truscott innocent? Will r WESTINGHOUSE HIGH SPEED DRYER For those rainy spring days next month.
