As a matter of fact, it might be more aptly described as the rule, since at times politics would appear to be the chief target for some of the most overworked and intemperate forms of derision. And while it is unfortunate that, because of this, an ancient and honourable profession is often being ir- responsibly defamed, the most serious result of all is that so many of our young people are being discouraged from entering public life. Personally, I make no apologies for being involved in our country ' s political process; I have known and have been associated with far too many politicians of intelligence, integrity, and dedication not to take a large measure of pride in the opportunity that has been extended to me to serve my commiunity and my fellow -citizens in my present capacity. And knowing, too, the great potential for good that lies within our system, I feel I would be remiss if I did not strongly exhort our young people to seriously consider devoting themselves to some form of political involvement. You might have to withstand sonne gibes and jokes along the way, but the co-operation and the goodwill of the vast majority of your fellow- citizens, and the chance you will have to play a role in preserving and in building upon all that is decent and fair in our society will far outweigh any other considera- tions. Public office, is not as the nnan once said, the last refuge of scoundrels . It is fertile ground for idealists, and a field worthy of the noblest dreams and aspira- tions of our young men and women.
