Once again it is most regrettable and disappointing towitness the defeat for a second time of the school referendum.It is interesting to muse on the problem of how efficiently andrealisticallya community like ours goes about deciding on themerits or otherwise on this and other important questions.
We wonder to what extent this decision of the electors isthe result of honest opinion based on sober thought, or whethersuch important questions involving the future or the youth ofour community for many years tocome ,i$ decided as u re^uitof feelings, impressions and hearsay based on the whisperinggrapevine.
We wonder, for example how many votes were cast on thebasis of investigation of the facts, sifting through the pros andcons of those facts, and coming to an opinion as a result ofthis information. Or, on the other hand, how many votersrefused to face any real facts and voted rather,Sn accordancewith the way they happened to feel about other relativelyunrelated issues or in terms of rumours they had heard on thematter. If a person happens to FEEL his taxes will go up andsomehow or other he is going to be out of pocket somewherealong the line; or he makes up his mind largely on the basisof how he FEELSabout individuals involved with the issue, heis therefore voting on emotionalism rather than fact. Today'sSocial Scientists would all agree the latter decision-makingprocess is not only very unsound but more than a little un-healthy as well.
There are those who have said that all important decisionsare made in the back room anyhow and what can the littleman-in-the-street really do to influence the day and times inwhich he lives. There are those who say that the "average man1
doesn't really know enough about large issues to have a voicein them. Consequently we have the growing opinion on thepart :of some that the government or whoever should just goahead and make these decisions for us. The democratic processin which weal! profess'to believe is thereby slowly, but per-sistently violated and weakened.
Many of us need to take another long look at our indivi-dual .methods we use to come to a decision. If we feel thatdemocracy is the only right method, then do we not have aresponsibility to see that our decisions are based on rationalthought; on the directly related issues only and not on thebasis of unrelated emotionalism?

L*tter§-to-t he-Editor"Dear Editor: An editorial appearing in the Vancouver Suntoday, describes how happy the monkeys of the FrankfurtZoo are with their new ultra-modern glass and concrete monkeyhouse. Apparently great care has been taken to meet themonkeys' basic needs.
Monkeys aren't the only creatures with basic needs.People have them too. Even kids. Even the kids on Salt Springisland!
Monkeys also have the advantage, if it can be consideredan advantage,of not having the responsibility of undertakingeffective citizenship in a world of rapid scientific and tech-nological change,and swiftly changing social, political andmoral institutions.
Intending no malice toward monkeys - God bless 'em-it'snot unreasonable to feel that the needs of modern youth aremore imperative, complex and vital than those of monkeys.It seems, however, that too few Salt Spring Islanders areaware of either the needs of monkeys or youth. Perhaps monkeys,but certainly not youth.
Between inter-island jealousy,and the obsession of manyto preserve the Gulf Islands as a quaint backwoods preserveout of the disturbing stream of human progress, those whoshould know better have chosen to vote against the youngstersof Salt Spring Island, in failing to provide them with anadequate school building and facilities.
It's fortunate that these same people aren't able to votethe 'kids 6ut of existence entirely, because it's true thatyoung people are often more frustrating and irritating thanmonkeys.However,some experts claim that given a chance,human children are even smarter than monkeys.
Maybe you haven't noticed, but the little ones are stillwith us,and will continue to violate the blissful sanctity ofthis fair "Lotus Land" in spite of the "Sympathetic under-standing "of their elders.
How about a referendum to raise money to hire theservices of a Pied Piper to serenade the kids to some distantpart of the world? Maybe the Frankfurt Zoo!
Mora!: It's better to be a monkey in Frankfurt than ayoungster on Salt Spring Island. (Signed: W. Shaw)"
''Dear Editor: As mothers of young children, the undersigned6re much interested In the proposal to start an officiallysponsored school Kindergarten. We suppose that this wouldhave -the great advantages over the present Kindergarten ofsaving parents monthly fees and the difficulties of transport.On the other hand, we suspect that it would involve theclosing of Mrs. MacMi Han's present very satisfactory Kinderfgarten,and hence would stopal I training of children underage5.We further fear that instruction in reddingand writing mightnot be a I lowed, even to those children who were a I ready readingfairly freely by age 5. If such restrictions are imposed, tnew Kindergarten will hinder the education of our childreinstead of helping it.
We therefore suggest rhat parents who support this proposalshould do so only on the expressed condition that the teachingof reading is encouraged in the Kindergarten as well as beforeentry to it.
We would emphasize that "readiness for reading" isdependent on "mental age "rather than on chronological age,andean usually be developed with advantage before 5 yearsfrom birth. (Signed: O. Layard, Joan Lukas, S. Earle, J.Ruitenwerf- Bridaet Wilson)"

SALT SPRING SAGAby ERIC A. ROBERTS
MYSTERY OF THE "BATTLE" OF GANGES HARBOUR
VERY visitor to Salt Spring is certain to hear one orother versions of the "Battle" of Ganges Harbour,
When the incident occurred, it was known as, "The Massacreof Admiralty Bay". The exact date at which the massacrewas elevated to battle level is not known. What is certainis that the story, like certain types of cheese, improveswith age.
