Letter to the : Editor | REGARDING THE "11.50 CLUB" Port Perry, October 23, 1969 Dear Editor: As a resident of Port Perry, I feel justified in writing this letter and only hope that it will be published in your paper. I have lived in Port Perry a num- ber of years and have never been so shocked at the actions of other resi- dents. I only hope that through this letter others may see their. own mis- takes. i { Many merchants are eomplaining that the strict law enforcement is causing them to lose business, If théir store was burlarized or one of their customers struck down in front of the store is that not the time to or oR rE ask questions? wv H \ i ' y I am sure that they remember being without protection this year. What happened? Windows were broken, business stores were entered but the residents did not act, N What is the matter with the people ? Is their.idea of life being invaded? Do they not realize that they are being protected? ! ' We are so ready to condemn the teen-agers but it is the parents who]. set the example. If they disobey traf- fic signs and rules in our town, do they do it in Oshawa, Toronto or on the open highway ? The residents should think of the day that they tried their drivers ex- amination, Oh! they wanted their license so badly that they stopped at all stop streets, their speed was under thirty miles on hour, and they knew every rule in the Motorists Manual. Now that they have their license, they have forgotten the three little words of driving,--CARE, COURTESY and COMMONSENSE, A nervous bystander.

Yet a few careful measures must be taken to ensure that every- one enjoys the fun ..., parents and young spooks! There are two important areas to watch for: first, the streets and high- ways. Drivers beware of the unex- pected on this night. We can't expect children to take as much care jas they normally do, so it's up to us to be especially alert. Then, at home there are some simple ways of avoiding Hallowe'en mishaps. The Ontario Safety League recom- mends a careful check on the follow- ing points: 1. Light your porch, and avoid the danger of visiting children tumbling in the dark, 2. Clear obstacles from your back vard . . . this will discourage practi- cal jokers, and prevent falls. 3. If you have a dog, keep it secured. 4. Make sure if your children go out that they wear light coloured cloth-" ing, so they can be seen by motoristts. Touches of fluorescent tape on a cos- tume are excellent protection. 6. Masks make it hard for the small toddler to see where he's going. En- courage children to make their own interesting faces with make-up. Hilltop Herald Hi Folks: We're still celebrating the Friday victory of our Rugby Team.
