HT Y6832 Between YouanilMe w->M By RUTII COLES Hlappy birthday, Margaret Kennedy, a well loved member of the Wbitby community. Robin and I are devoted to Margaret and we have great respect for ber. After graduating froin a Whitby High Sehool with a Carter Scholarship she spent a termn at Oxford takmng l7th century English. >Margaret tauglit at Port Whitby in the junior room, which was comprised of grades 1 to 4 in a two- room sehool She becaiie principal of this samne sehool. Later, while teaching in Toronto she becamne vice-principal, the first woman appointed to such a position. At a later date, she became the principal at several sehools. At one time, Margaret became the president of the Toronto Teadiers Art Association, the president of the Metropolitain Toronto Reading Association and was a holder of a Public Sehool Certificate whlch today means an area superintendent. 1 arn sure she bas given an added dimension to many chidren's lives over the years and is still remeznbered by many of her students. Now, from the splendid to the contemptible. Within our sehool systemns across Canada we must ~be ever on guard to keep or try to keep our teaching staffs above board so that they earn the respect of the students'. Over the past few years a great deal of respect has flown out the window, a detrimfent to children both young and older. How a man who holds such views as the maie teacher out west who has openly thrust his misguided ideas to bis students is beyond my com- prehension. Why was this allowed to go on? Were the school authorities blind and unthinking? This, should have been stopped in it's infancy before any damage was done. There should not be roomn in the systemn for this sort of thing. A Jew baiter or hater bas a riglit to his own opinion, ignorant as it miglit be-but lie bas no, THE CORPORATION 0F THE TOWN-OF WHITBY IN THE MATTER 0F THE ONTARIO HERITAGE ACT, R.S.0. 1980, CHAPTER 337 AND IN THE MATTER 0F THE LANDS AND PREMISES AT THE FOLLOWING MUNICIPAL ADDRESS IN THE PROVINCE 0F ONTARIO NOTICE 0F PASSING 0F BY-LAW TAKE NOTICE that Council of the Corporation of the TOWN of WHITBY has passed By-law No. 1679-84 to\designate the following property as belng of architectural andior historical value or in- terest under Part IV of The Ontarlo Heritage Act, R.S.0. 1980, Chapter 337: Former AIl Saints' Anglican Church Rectory 208 Byron Street South, Whltby, Ontario REASONS FOR DESIGNATION 0F 208 BYRON STREET SOUTH. Historîcal The house was built as a private residence in 1868. In 1882, it was purchased as the rectory for All Saints' Anglican Church. It served in that capacity through 69 years and 9 successive ministers. In 1951, the house reverted back to a private residen- ce for which it has since been used. Architectural Much of the beauty of this building is presently hidden. The original tongue-in-groove frame siding and the window trim have been covered over by vinyl sldlng. The enclosed porch and the widow's walk have been removed and the two main-f acade, flrst-floor windows have been enlarged. The roof trlm treatment, partlcularly the cornice and brackets, are stillIintact. With careful restoration, many of the significant architectural features will agaî n become visible to the passer-by. DATED AT THE TOWN 0F WHITBY THIS 30TH DAY 0F MAY, 1984. Michael B. Gazo Deputy Clerk The Corporation of the Town of Whitby 575 Rossland Road East Whltby, Ontario Li N 2M8 _ M M riglit to lnflict this on the public, especlally ln the sehool system. So he Is put througb the courts and what wlll the outcome of that be? I would be happy to have somne of my tax money used for a different purpose.. Give hlm a few months of extensive readlng under supervision with explanations and direction when needed. Then a cheap seat on a plane with two' guards who are well educated and literate to fly across to Europe to the sites of prison camps where the Jews were held, tortured and murdered. Let him listen to survivors who alive today will neyer forget the agonies of that time in blstory. Let him tour the camps and turn pale witb horror as others do and to lose his capacity to talk as he views what must be one of the most horrendous tinies since the world began. Might his mind be able to take in the truth? One wonders if this could be possible and I for one wouldn't count on it. However, I would rather see tax money spent in- this way rather than keeping him in prison. Maybe a prison terni could come after so that he might have think and ponder. Take him to Dachau and give him the tour. To being with the landscape is very simiiar to ours in Canada especially in Ontario. This gave me pause to think at the time. and made it so difficui to ac- cept. We could have been at home. The blue sky, the trees and all the foliage so similiar to, we"Il say Whitby. Had this -been another country, arid and" barren we would not have feit so at home which' made it difficult to understand why. SHis face wil tuimn ashen and bis lips gray as lie sees the evidence in front of hlm. The ovens and the implements are there and the methoda they used are visible in large pictures wbich show the truth. The pictures of the inmates and victinis of the holocaust; skeletons with little flesh just enough to hold the bones together are horrifying and terrible. Let him stand in the gas chambers and contern- plate how he might bave felt,,especially if bis famu ly were undergoing the same fate. Man's inhumanity to man seen ini many parts of the world today. Those small boys in the east in the front lines mannmng gun posts and carrying guns, starvmng babies and little tots dying in many parts of the world. Even so there la a difference, not mass murder as it was, deliberately planned and executed with countless deaths and worse. As we left these horror chambers, a Swedish girl, 50 pale, she looked as thougli she might collapse at any moment, said to me ina quiet alniost inaudiable voice, "I can't talk, I can't say anything." We. too felt as she did. Take this ill-informed man and let hini experience this trauma. If he can't accept the truth then wil be the time to put hini som.ewhere and we'll leave that to the authorities to decide. This sort of 'treatmîenit applies to other people' in other segments of society. Drunken drivers come to mind. When they sober up take -tbem to bospitals and morgues. Let thern see first hand how people, often young people and-babies suffer and dietbrough their unthinking actions. Let theni see tortured bodies as they writhe in agony and pain. Let thern hear the moaning and the tortured voices of the in- jured. Let theni share thegrief of the bereaved which is not a thing of the moment but'an ongoing tbing forever. This* might very. well help to cut down wbat bas become a terrible thing wbich no one- seems to be able to cope with.
