Wednesday, Nevember 8, 19671 . ; Twenty-five cap caps of heroin were found in her mouth (This case history is taken from the files of the National Parole Board, Ottawa) When Mary was caught by the Metropolitan Toronto Police in 1961 she had 25 capsules of heroin concealed in her mouth, She was sentenced to five years for trafficking and sent to the Kingston Prisonfor Women, In 1963 after serving three years of her five year sentence, the National Parole Board released her on parole. The Toronto Branch of the Elizabeth Fry Society helped supervise Mary until her parole expired early in £966, and since that time she has been completely rehabilitated, Mary of course, is not her real name, but the facts are true. - She never lived with her parents but was brought up by a grandmother, She appeared close to her sister but had very little to do with her parents. Mary attended schooi but left at age 16 and although claiming a grade 8 education, . it appeared she only reached grade 6. She worked asa salesclerk and at various jobs, mostly in factories or asa waitress, In 1948, when only 18, whe starting having pains in her head and became restless, * e * Mary left home, telling many people wild stpries about her family and home life and in the following year was ad- mitted to the Ontario Hospital where she remained for several months. That same summer she was placed in the Mercer Re- formatory Prison for two years for incorrigibility, Mary married in 1951 and had a son but the family kept moving from one town to another practically every month, Finally, after three years of unstable marriage, she left her husband, Mary moved to the United States and there met her first common-law husband, living with him for about a year, In 1956 she was charged with violating the Immigration Act, but returned to Canada voluntarily. However, a few months later she went to live in the United States again and was once more charged with Violating the [Immigration Act and again Mary returned to Canada voluntarily. She then lived in Toronto where she met her second eommon-law husband, Early in 1959.she was charged for using drugs but gave them up in December, She moved out of the city, but in 1960 received a suspended sentence and was placed on probation with charges of uttering. Although her probation period was Satisfactory, her Pro- bation Officer said she tended to associate with the most undesirable types of people and her future was regarded as “very doubtful”’. * * ¢€ After a quarrel with one of her husbands, Mary requested permission to enter a hospital, She was admitted into the Ontario Hospital as she felt she was going back on drugs again, but after an argument with the nurses there, she left four days later, without any warning. Early in 1961 she returned to Toronto and became addicted again. Mary was ‘also known to the police asa prostitute. and an alcoholic. Atstha:Prison-for.Women, she was examined ‘by psychiat- rists “aPhG psychéneurosis and an inadequate personality with drug addiction. The details of her trafficking were somewhat interesting. Mary said she engaged in this ‘to older junkies’? because whe did not want to make her living through prostit- ution, Unknown to her, her common-law husband had been selling drugs for quite a few months. Throughout the time she spent in prison Mary attended school and ‘worked in the kitchen and sewing room. She made greeting cards and did copper work as hobbies. A much better relationship came to exist between herself and her parents and she received visits from them and an older sister about once every two or three months, Her last common-law husband, who was net an addict, was Servs ing a five year term in the Men's Prison in Kingston, but Mary wanted to resettle with him when he came out, and hoped to have her child with them, Mary had her ups and downs. while in prison and had to undergo psychiatric treatment. The Parole Board refused parole early in 1963 and Mary suffered three days of extreme upset, She won the admiration of the staff by throwing off her distress and settling into constructive activity, Eventually parole was granted with supervision by the . Elizabeth Fry Society, When she came out, Mary began to Tnake a new woman of herself and a new life. Although at first she resented supervision she gradually relaxed and got a job In a factory, gradually working her way towards better money. Mary made marked progress — ‘she stuck to a rigid diet and lost more than 50 pounds, worked steadily and was considered a good employee. | She saved her money * and eventually rented a small apartment, When her common-law husband was paroled from prison, he joined her there, He got a job in the same factory and bothbegantomake sucha good home and life for themselves that Mary was able to have her son with them. They were then. able to move to a larger apartment. Her common-law husband was made a foreman and worked a lot of extra hours, He and Mary had a number of long range plans which included paying. off their debts and saving enough so they could buy their own home, When released from prison, Mary had been hostile, antagonistic and was hard to control, but since then she learned self-control and patience, : Although her common-law partner is stiil a parailed ‘inmate, there has been real progress on his part, There is every indication that the two have now become worthwhile members of their community, This, of course, is only one of the many success stories which arise from the files of the National Parole Board, Since it was formed in 1959 the Parole Board has con. sistently shown a success rate of 90 per cent of its total irimates "6 completing their parole periods satisfactorily, HERALD CLASSIFIEDS GET RESULTS SEARS SALES Variety Store The BIGGEST “LITTLE” STORE | in Town - Phone 635-2414, a 3504 Kslum O. agreed with the Ontario Hogpital’s diagnosis -of-=-1: x wel ert oye Oo ee ty ty * ee mr a2 2G 2 aS te? * 5 Sa falls. “Wy we i * From the imperial OI Collection ARTISTS IMPRESSION OF CARTIER IN 1535 Cartier and the Algonquin On his second royally-commis- sioned voyage of discovery to Canada in 1535, Jacques Cartier camped at Stadacona (now Quebec City), established trade with the |* natives, and explored inland waters, hoping to find a passage to the orient, The Algonquin Indians at Stadacona enjoyed Cartier’s lavish gifts, Because they were at war with the Iroquois at Hochelaga, they tried to dissuade him from going further up-river, They warned with oratory and ceremony that there would be so much ice and snow at Hochelaga (now Montreal) that all the Freenh would perish, Cartier was not impressed and RCMP Inspector and Mrs, T, pany him to Hochelaga, eo Ff fe The French went as far as Lake St. Peter in the Emerillon, the smallest of their three ships.

THE MAN: “Itt was Peter, the disciple of Christ who said these words, They were shouted out in a fit- of anger and fear, They con- stituted a denial ‘of the man : Jesus Christ who was on trial for His life. “1 know not the mani” - Fierce words, hasty words, designed only to-save his lown skin, We like to think that ; -lit' we had been there, we would have handled the situation differ. ently, But would we have? - English history tells of a party in London where guests began to talk Hghtly of Christ and exchange jokes about sacred things. One man stood up and said his fare- wells with all courtesy and good breeding, and added, “Tam sorrys to leave, but 1] am still a Chris- tian.” That man, Sir Robert Peel, lived to become Prime Minister, Hadhe remained silent he would have said in effect, “I know not the man,” Remember, it was in the ordinary associ- ations of life’ that Peter denied Christ, —— e : Moit folk find it easy to sing along with the rest of the con- gregation on Sunday the words of the hymn, “Stand Up For Jesus,’ Standing up for the Lord in church can become almost second nature. It’s another matter entirely to stand. up on Monday and be counted for Christ, Christian, you know that Christ is the answer to the needs of your friends and neigh- bours, Why then are’so many Christians given to gab about so many things, and yet be so strangely silent about Christ? Speaking about ‘‘standing up for Christ’, we often see the spectacle of the person who at- tempts this with the attitude, “The Fight is Ont?’ Then the witness wonders why he is met with so much belligerence, Wi the believer gets up in arms, he can only expect the unbeliever to take whatever arms he can find to defend himself, Jesus said something about this when He advised us to be very wise, but quite harmless in our approach to people with this sub- ject of salvation, It is also possible to be too careful, and thus lose our directness. Being ‘well -rounded’* has it’s good points, but not when we are so well-rounded that we are headed in no direction, A minister delivered an elaborate course of lectures for the benefit of a corraln. man who attending: a re briste “Which one of my disconrses re= moved your doubts??’ asked the minister, ‘Oh, it wasn't any of your ‘sermons that influenced ne,’’ replied the man. “It was ‘FROM.
