Trials, temptations, disappointments--all these are helps instead of hindrances, if one uses them rightly. They not only test the fibre of the character, but strengthen it. Every conquered temptation represents a new fund of moral energy. Every trial endured end weathered in the right spiri _makes 8 soul nobler and stronger than it was before. TERRACE BAY NEWS SUGAR October 20, 1966 AND SPICE by Bill Smiley What do you think of long hair on boys? I imagine your answer will depend on your age and sex. If you're a 13-year-old girl, you'll probably roll your eyes toward heaven and ejaculate, "Yummy!", or something of the sort. If you're a male junior ex- ecutive in the late twenties, you'll probably _ sneer, "Revolting!", while secretly wishing you were 10 years younger and could have a go at it yourself. If you're a young swinger, late-teens, early- twenties, your reaction is probably, "The Greatest!" This group, female, are fad-followers. Fif- teen years ago, they wouldn't even look at anybody who didn't have a crew cut. Males whose forties are fad- ing along with their own hair will probably grumble, "What they need is a year in the army!" Females of the same vin- tage are quite likely to coo, "It's sorta cute, really!", as long as their own young male is clean-cut and beardless. If you're over 50, you prob- ably look with mild amuse- ment, or mild disgust, on the current crops of sheep-dogs, male. You know it doesn't amount to much. You remem- ber the flat-chested flapper, the rumble seat, the coonskin coat and a lot of.other items that appalled the oldies of the era. Personally, I don't agree with any of the above reac- tions except the last one, though I haven't yet reached that age group. Or that fine plain of tolerance. To go back over them. Long hair is seldom yummy. And it is seldom revolting, though it can be. It is not the greatest. Greatest anything. A year in the army solves nothing. And all sorts of things are sorta cute: monkeys, baby alliga- tors, infant pigs. But let's get down to the principals and the principles in this world-shaking debate. Many high-school principals react just like the 13-year-old girls above. They roll their eyes to heaven, when the sub- ject of long hair comes up. But they don't ejaculate, "Yummy!" At least that isn't what it sounds like. Creep up behind a principal and say, even quietly, "Hair- cuts." I guarantee he'll jump a foot and a half and turn on you with a decided tic below his left eyeball. A principal confronted by a few shaggies feels exactly like an inspecting brigadier in the army, who arrives at "C" Pla- toon and finds that six of the bodies stiffly at attention are wearing white sneakers in- stead of spit 'n spolish black boots. And what about the princi- ples? This is what the culprits purport to defend: individu- alism; freedom of expression; non-conformity. You name it. It's all the rage these days. And the muddled kids are aided and abetted by parents, "liberal" thinkers and mis- guided editors. After that comes the emo- tional hogwash. Einstein, Sir John A. Macdonald, Jesus, would all have to get a hair- cut if they went to high school today. Can you imagine Christ in a crew cut? He was a confor- mist in the things that didn't matter, an individualist in things that did Sir ohn and Einstein had other things on their minds, and didi't have time to worry about hair-cuts. But I'll bet they didn't spend several hours a day combing and ad- miring their locks. Guess I sound like an old fumf. But I know how the kids suffer when the sacrile- gious scissors start their dese- cration. I still have a psychic scar because the Germans made me shave a magnificent beard in prison camp. And I'll never forget the wave of anguish . that swept me the day I stood before a mirror and saw half of my fine, handle-bar, fight- er-pilot's moustache shaved. But there was no going, back. You do look pretty silly in half a handle-bar. But let's hear your opinions on boys' long hair. Write your editor.
