Nothing is any longer inevitable. Since everything can be accomplished, everything must be deliberately chosen". Jerome D. Frank Having lived in Exeter up until a year ago I realize the problems the youth are facing, I know you've probably heard that a hundred , times before. Although letters such as yours are very factual they don't make the people really see because "their kids don't use drugs". I'm now living in a town about twice the size of yours but that isn't important in so much as the same problems are relevant. After a riot here in October, it was decided that the youth needed something constructive to do, So a youth council was created. They rented a building for a period of three months through the generosity of the town council. The building that was 'given' them was a quantzit hut that had no heat, no water and a lot of dirt, Comments such as the following were written up in the town newspaper "Short on funds and long on apathy, the coffee house project is still plodding along". "It was as cold as 20 degrees in there. It was freezing. The roof leaks and the water on • the floor was frozen solid". The future looked dim. However only two weeks later the paper's headline read "Dance is Financial Success: Ribbon Cut at Coffee House" and $4?0 was in the bank, The kids had a choice; they could either be defeated or work for what they wanted themselves as the adults didn't "seem" to want to get involved. They are learning differently. A hall and a band were donated. At the open house many interested adults showed up. In two weeks they have another dance planned and this time they are able to pay their own way. It is hoped that in a few weeks the $800 required for heat and water will be in the bank. After that the coffee house will be open on a regular basis. Couches, a frig and stove, tables and chairs, coffee urns and many other things have been donated by adults. Tentatively planned are jam sessions, youth rallies, seminars, picnics, hikes, and other ac- tivities with similar groups. The future is now considerably brighter. So to the youth of Exeter please don't give up. What you want isn't beyond reach, whether it be coffee house, a drop-in or just an occasional dance. If you want it badly enough and are willing to work damn hard for it — it's yours. I know there are many wonderful adults in your town who would be willing to help — give them a chance.

The sawdust from the mills was deposited into the streams killing the fish. As the country continued to develop, cities began to gather mostly in the area of streams, or in close location to large bodies of water. As these cities progressed sewage, various industrial wastes, and chemicals were dumped directly into our means that we have dirty, smoky, chemically poisonous low oxygen count.air which we. must breathe. This is very injurious to our health also. There is also another kind of pollution less common to the public. We live in an ever in- creasing noisy environment, In the streets and highways you have the constant roar of internal combustion engines, screaming brakes, and the general rumble of the traffic. In the buildings, air con- ditioning equipment hums steadily. Industrial noises occur in mines, foundries and in almost every factory to a degree that conversation is almost impossible. In the air, we have ear-splitting sounds of jet air- crafts, In the homes is the ringing of phones, the entertainment provided on T.V. with its unex- pected sound effects, assisted by record players, radios and other home appliances. It has been known for a long time that cer- tain noises damage the hearing capabilities of humans, Many years ago when numerous creatures including man himself, roamed throughout the land, nature did a wonderful job of keeping the whole en- vironment clean. As man, the destroyer, began to utilize the great things on earth, he developed various wastes which he scattered about the face of the , earth and air and water thus creating a situation commonly referred to today as POLLUTION! waterways. In fact some of the larger cities bordering on the ocean actually deliver garbage by special boats into the sea. The pulp and paper industry with the wide use of chemical bleaches have polluted and killed all the stream life in our creeks! Due to new agriculture techniques enormous amounts of fertilizer, weed and insect spray have done much to the harmful contamination of waterways. Our own Department of Highways by the use of calcium chloride and salt has lately raised the salt content of our rivers and lakes* As a result, we have ill-smelling and tasting chemical and bac- teria ridden water to drink, which could cause poor health and even death. Another element involved in pollution is air. One of the first indications of air pollution was the burning of large quantities of coal for heating homes, buildings, power plants, locomotives and other uses. With the use of the automobile, trucks and diesel locomotives, air pollution increased. In recent years, the burning of low grade fuel by jet aircraft has added to the problem. Heavy industrial development in this country, such as smelting, oil refining, chemical producing plants have added many harmful poisonous chemicals to our atmosphere. In addition to this process of bur- ning various fuels, large quan- tities of oxygen are consumed, Finally, this type of air pollution ,Ed.

The cities and towns smelled so! And man said "h is good." Long after man had died the smog soon left and you could see and breathe. The water washed all the garbage onto shore where it was cleaned away and once again the water was a clear blue color. The piles of rubbish turned to mountains and grew grass. And God said "It is good." Man no longer reigned the earth to pollute and destroy it. Once more there was life, but not for man, He had had his chance but now he was dead. By KIM McCAFFREY Grade 7 Exeter Public School The worst polluter in the world is man. In the beginning man saw the trickling blue waters and said "If we put our wastes here the water will wash it away." After long periods the clear blue water was nowhere to be seen, And man said "It is good." When we saw the blue sky and white clouds, he said "If we let our smog rise up, the wind will blow it away." But soon a heavy dark blanket fell over the city; birds could no longer fly, and man said "It is good." The grassy green fields pleased him so he said "We will put our What is happening? breathing. You may make an effort to breathe and you may not get all the oxygen your body needs to stay healthy, The effectiveness of the en- forcing of the new laws dealing with air pollution depends on you. You and your community must he the watchdogs that guard your interests. Village Inn Grand Bend Dine & Dance Sat. Night 9 till 1 Music by: BRUCE SHARP & The Country Folk PIZZA Now Available Eat Them Here or Take Them Home By HEATHER DOUGHERTY Grade 8 Exeter Public School Only a few years ago people thought of air pollution as just being smoke or soot but today many other materials are known to be involved. Some of the pollution comes from oil and gasoline, Some comes from the new factories that produce Modern fabrics and wonder drugs. In years to come there will be many other causes of air pollution because of the new sources of energy and by the increasing ways of modern life. So the problem goes on and on. A good definition of air pollution is' "Contamination of the air by waste products of the activities of man," How does all this pollution get into the air? One person might answer that it is from burning which is man's basic method of producing power. What harm does air pollution do? Well it rots and soils clothes, it discolors bright house paint, it rusts metals, it mars monu- ments and public buildings, it cuts down visibility and can ground a plane if the air is too polluted. Air pollution can also affect crops but most important is that it menaces human health. It affects us by making our eyes water and blurring our vision. Even worse than that though, it can upset your NOTICE .5th ANNUAL *t0011 POZEs CAMPING and * * SPORT SHOW Isn't It The Truth?
