LETTERS To the Editor Nyssa, Oregon March 7, 1966 To the Editor: In a recent interview with a mother of a local teenage boy, I was asked, ‘Can I really do any thing to control my boy? The other day he said to me. ‘You’d better be careful, Mom. We kids have a lot of power and we are in the majority’.” Now of concern in the heat of this kind of family disagreement, much more was said, but that is beside the point What causes wonder and worry to me as a parent and as a law enforcement officer is why did we as parents, educators and com munity leaders allow this miscon ception to become instilled in the minds of our young people. Has there been too much em phasis in our schools on modem problems and modern history? Are we as parents, teachers and leaders being psyched out of our guidance roles by the constant reminder, “Overlook it; you were once young too?" Do we spend too much time in self-interest because of the speed of living today, such as keeping up with the Jones’, listening to the prophesiers of doom or living beyond our economic capabilities? Let’s evaluate young people un der 25 years of age and those over 25 of today, compared with those between 100 and 5000 years ago. History and the sciences tell us that we today live many years longer than our forefathers did. So if we remember and teach past history’, the facts will show that our youth is actually declin ing in numbers to people over 25 today. To those who choose not to be lieve the textbooks of history, let them use some simple mathe matics. Most of us have read or been taught something of the rise and fall of the Roman empire. I would say to all, read a lit tle more on this and in so doing take time to find out the ages of Episcopal Minister Announces Services For Lenten Season ADRIAN COMMUNITY CHURCH NEWS A meeting of the Women’« ««- ■ociation <>f Adrian Community church will be held this afternoon, March 10. in the home of Mrs. Tina Schiemer.
