Strip-Tease
Sir, —May I, as a mother of a family, commend our City Council on its ban on striptease on Sundays and its restriction on Sunday entertainment? For this drop in the bucket, parents and the majority of our youth, too, will be grateful. However, surely it is time our city fathers did something definite to clean up a naturally beautiful, but morally decadent, city. Is it not time to ask ourselves whether we are or are not a Christian community? Our city councillors, by virtue of their control of oiir by-laws, are surely responsible for the moral as well as the material welfare of our city. This degrading practice should not be available as entertainment for our youth. Cr. Stillwell may be alone in the council, but he is by no means alone in the city in his desire for clean entertainment. Can we look to our youth and women’s organisations x for some positive action?—Yours, etc., PARENT. October 19, 1966.
