Editorially Speaking:
WHO WILL CAST THE FIRST STONE?
Who will cast the first stone?
Ever since Adam and Eve fell from grace in the Garden
of Eden, the knotty problem has been with us. |
Is'it the fault of the times in which we live that so
many boys and girls who are far too young for marriage,
find themselves pitchforked into adult responsibility be-
fore they are ready for it? :
Is it thé fait gf the parents who set ‘a poor example
for their growing children, or who are afraid to safeguard
them by laying down rules of conduct? ;
Is it the fault of the schools. which provide the meet-
ing place for boys and girls who have a normal and
healthy interest in each other?
The fault of the automobile which leads so inevitably
to parking along the roadsides?
The fault of the cheap taverns which wink at serv-
ing liquor to minors?
Or could some slight blame be laid at the door of the
boys and girls themselves? -
Does a girl believe that she is being brave and
modern when she surrenders what she will never be able .
to regain?
Does she realize that it is she, and she alone, who is
going to hold the bag when she steps outside the accepted
frame of social behavior? ;
Does she know that the boy 'can skip, leaving her
with the foreboding, the panic, the eventual pains of birth,
the care of a helpless infant at a time when she should
be enjoying her girlhood, going to parties, dancing care-
free and light as a breeze with her schoolmates? :
Do girls and boys stop to think at all?
Do they know that the social structure was set up for
their protection and the protection of mothers and chil-
dren?
It happens.
schools.
And the community draws its skirts about itself in
rightéous indignation, demanding stricter supervision, de-
manding that the child who is suffering out the long nine
months of pregnancy, anguished at the results of her folly,
not knowing which way to turn, be treated as an outcast
and a pariah.
True, there are some tramps who will never learn,
who shrug off the consequences, or seek the aid of an
abortionist. They have asked for it.
For the most part, the victims are appalled at the
consequences. They never meant it to work out that way
. . . but they considered that they would not be popular
if they did not permit familiarity. They lacked the per-
sonal fastidiousness which would have guarded them.
- The community which allows conditions to develop
that lead inevitably to complications, has no business to
stand in judgment.
The damage is done. The punishment is automatic.
The most important thing now is that any baby ar-
rive in good shape, whether born in or out of wedlock;
that it be loved and cherished; and that as an innocent
bystander, it not be tagged with the word illegitimate.
Re-read your Bible.
This problem is as old as the human race. Each
generation thinks it invented sex, rejects the idea that
an older generation could have been conceived in the same
old way.
~~ WHAT? My FATHER? my MOTHER? What could
the old folks have been thinking of? Such goings-on!

CONSERVE WILDLIFE
Dear Editor:
The week of March 17-23 is noted |
as National Wildlife Week, and I!
as a conservationist would like to
give you a little story. about our
wildlife.
Even in the early days, the Co- |
lonial governments recognized a |
need for some protection of wildlife. |
Domestic and wild animals have |
enormous biological, economic and |
social values in our fjenvironment. |
The early explorers of our land |
followed the trails used by animals |
in their migration.
It was the commercial hunters of |
big game and wildfows, and the |
enormous slaughter of game for | complished by our young people to-
sale “as food (before the first con=
servation laws prohibiting: the prac-
tice were ‘enacted) which sub-
stantially reduced the animal pop-
ulation of this country.
The biological value of wildlife is
now well recognized. There is an
ever shifting balance of creation,
predation and survival in the animal
world.
We know that the birds control
the spread of insects
which are harmful to crops. Even
the moles which disturb our lawns
eat cutworms. The study of wild-
life, its habitat and behavior and
its relation to living things includ-
ing man, brings valuable knowledge
to our farmers and businessmen as
well as to the scientists.
Animal populations’ have always
increased ‘and decreased in the
cycles affected by the condition of
the environment. Important factors
in these changes are food supply,
predation and cover.
One of the greatest influences in
lessening the favorable environment
for most of our wildlife is the
mechanized activity of ‘man. It is
important to recognize that when
animal populations increase too
rapidly and consume too many of
the resources they need, prosperity
declines.
We are learning that we can con-
tinue to farm the land and raise
domestic animals on the land, and
at the same time provide proper
habitat to nurture wildlife. “Strip
farming and refuges provide better
wildlife conservation projects.

SEWER. SENTIMENTS
There is some feeling that, al-
though the proposed three-munici-
pality sewer system, recently resur-
rected by the County Planning Com-
mission, is an expensive proposition,
it ain't gonna get any cheaper.
Implicit in this is the postulate
that a sewer system in Back Moun-
tain is inevitable, that some day it
will have to be. So why not now,
before costs go up more?
I suspect that if you asked the
man in the street whether he fig-
ured future expense was his chil-
dren's children’s = problems, he'd
I love my
kids.”
Maybe so, but he probably won't
hustle to buy them a four million
dollar sewer. :
Least opposition to the idea, gen-
erally speaking, is found in the bor-
ough, where frontage is more pro-
portionate, and in small, suburban-
ized areas of Dallas and Kingston
townships, or developments.
In central Shavertown, Trucks-
ville and Dallas longtime residents
ous walls, traps, etc. after warring
with neighbors “over seepage and
creepage. :
Weight of vote in those areas for
sewage might overcome the influ-
ence of ‘Carverton and most of
Dallas Township in vetoing the
works. In the latter two areas,
farmers and large property-owners,
who don't necessarily have money
to burn, get sick just thinking about
that $6.57 a foot frontage fee.
This is especially unpopular along
lower Demunds Road.
If the county, or any other re-
sponsible ‘agent, were tp devise some
more reasonable assessment method,
these property owners might come
around. .
But there's one other thing that
gripes Dallas Township. © Backing
up_that gripe is a. large Fernbrook
vote that doesn’t want a disposal
unit in its back yard, contrary to
whatever the “ county ‘sees prac-
ticable.
The people phrase it this way,
not in itself an unreasonable query:
If the sewer system could be grav-
ity-feed from the borough to Kings-
ton Township, what's this idea“ of
pumping it up-hill from Trucksville
to Fernbrook ?
Not only does the county's ‘plan
project two pumping stations for
this project, but one of them would
be pumping back sewage from
Carverton Road to Dallas Township

gravity.« Sra A
