Toastmasters Report On Aug. 14th Meeting jT-, v: ■.One of the many lessons we learn at Toastmasters is to ibe able to jump into a situation situation where assistance is required (without too much hesitation) and help get the joty done. So it is with these next two reports from the Bowmanville Toastmasters Cllib. While regular reporter Tohstmaster Nelson is enjoying enjoying Saskatoon and points westward, we shall endeavour endeavour to keep reports flowing. 'The meeting of August 14 was so lively that there is an ample supply of material to. fill a report. As usual, the meeting was opened with a toast, to Queen and Country, tlie Toastmaster Konzei- mann led a lively business meeting. Toastmaster Joe Christl sparked the meeting most often with his wit and knowledge and so was awarded the coveted Spark Plug Trophy. , The Table Topics portion of the meeting followed.

Some of the responses were from actual experience and some were fictitious The destinations destinations included Tobermory, Nashville, Malaysia, Niagara Niagara Falls, Grand Canyon, Quebec City, Graceland, White River and Las Vegas. Toastmaster Marg Kropf won the table topics trophy for her travelogue on Quebec City. Her love of the city was evident as she spoke. There were two guests at the meeting; Elaine and Paul. Both agreed to join in Table Topics. Elaine was a guest of Toastmaster Judy Yen and Paul was a guest of Club President Nancy Barnes. Both guests spoke admirably well on their allotted allotted subjects. Congratulations! Congratulations!

Toastmaster Gordon Gordon West presided over two speeches after introducing his speakers with a brief account account of their travels and favourite favourite destinations.

Assocntlon "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times," could certainly describe my adolescent years. In themselves, themselves, they were a whole lifetime of exhilarating new freedom and adventure, of experiment and painful discovery. discovery. They were also a time when I learned that adults weren't necessarily going to be my friends. The fences of adult authority that seemed to suddenly rise from nowhere nowhere to crowd my life made no sense to me. The authorities had always always been there, of course, but my resentment of them was a strong, new drive in me. Controls and limits were unfair, arbitrary and as we would say today, discriminatory. discriminatory. My new strength, that seemed superhuman to me, .could in a moment become puny. Words from an adult - - a teacher, a principal, an older brother - would shrink my world and fuel my anger. Next thing I knew, I was in trouble. Perhaps teenagers have always been in trouble with adults. "Since Babylonian times," says one writer, "adults have labelled adolescents adolescents as lazy and worthless, irresponsible and immature." immature." The tension between adult and youth is legendary, legendary, probably more heated today than ever before. Blaming expressions such as "Kids are no good," "The trouble with kids is that you can't trust them," "Kids don't know how to work," and so on, are usually accompanied accompanied by "These days." As if adults in previous times saw young people differently, differently, as mature and responsible. responsible. It's strange that each new generation of adolescents adolescents appears to the adults who preceeded them as somehow more troublesome than any previous generation, generation, including their own. Once we think we've crossed that magic line into adult life - arbitrarily decided by, age - our memories seem to fail us. Toddlers' explorations of their world are relatively easy for adults to understand, understand, manage and even enjoy. enjoy. Teenagers, however, flex their muscles in ways that bewilder, alienate and frighten many adults. To further complicate matters and inhibit dialog, their uncertainties uncertainties and fears are, of necessity, camouflaged by bravado, charm and pretense. pretense. Or, as an older male teenage teenage acquaintance of mine put it, "I'm entering the adult world now, so I'm getting getting pven better at hiding my true feelings". It appears that each generation! generation! of teenagers is caught in an inevitable double double bind. On the one hand, they're lectured by adults about their irresponsibility and immaturity, and on the other about failing to take responsibility for their irresponsible irresponsible behaviour. Not only does this fulfill the age- old prophecy about teenagers teenagers being "bad", it's also the way we learn. Adults who expect teenagers teenagers to be "bad" don't help. matters much either, because because their expectations influence influence outcomes. When adults believe and proclaim,- as many do, that teenagers are necessarily lazy, irresponsible irresponsible and immature, they're sowing the seeds of those very attitudes and behaviours. behaviours. • The old axiom, "Handsome "Handsome is as handsome does," needs modernizing to "Handsome is as handsome is perceived to be." For example, example, a child, conditioned to believe that he's competent, competent, intelligent and worthwhile, worthwhile, will become a teenager teenager and an adult who's able to accept compliments. He's been trained to think well enough of himself to deserve them. As always, adult percep-, tions of them are among the most difficult realities that teenagers have to deal with, as they struggle to figure out who they are and where they fit in. Polarized attitudes attitudes between adults and teenagers may be as much the result of adults' inappropriate inappropriate expectations and subsequent subsequent blaming of teenagers teenagers as of adolescent behavior itself. To think of seniors simply simply as people who happen to be aging helps soften the sterotyped view of them as helpless, senile and incompetent, incompetent, none of which is necessarily necessarily true. Teenagers, with tneir wise-child faces, are simply people in their teens, needing all the help they can get too, on their sometimes hard and lonely road. I wouldn't want to be a teenager again for anything. However, some days, 1 wonder wonder if we adults aren't still ( teenagers, trying to . figure * out how to complete that one ' r critical adolescent step in . the long process of growing 1 up.

The second speaker, Toastmaster Joe Christl, presented Book Speech #3 from the Professional Speakers Speakers Manual, entitle Booth- manship.
