TAX CONCESSION FOR THRIFT

The Harris budget offers something to al! but
can’t be termed an election budget. Coming from a
government that in the past few years has been getting
around to socializing us to death to beat Socialism,
it is now encouraging the public to be independent
of government, a swing | away from a national social
security program.

This, to our mind, is a good thing: As Canadians,
we should stand on our own two feet and to the best
of our ability,- provide for our present and future
security, not expect the government, which after all, is
us, ‘to provide everything. With the new tax budget
you will get a tax concession for your thrift.

Harris did dole.out an.extra dollar a month for
‘family allownance, but we can see very little differ-
ence between family aliowance and ‘Alberta’s or Mr.

‘Bennett's ‘hand back’ to the people. Call them by any
name, they all add up to a reduction in tax.

“THE POWER MUST BE SHARED

Cc, W. Nash, director of load production for the
‘B.C. Power Commission, will have the ‘support of many
interior people after his recent comments on the de-
-velopment of ‘electric power in this province.

vty Nash, in criticizing the views of the City of
‘Vancouver's committee: on power development, said
that “One concentrated group of communities cannot
expect the exclusive right to the output of major hydro
resources.” The committee had urged the provincial
government to adopt a policy of reserving hydro po-
tential adequate to meét the needs of-the Greater
Vancouver area for at least the next 25 years, speci-
fically mentioning the Columbia, the Fraser and those
close-in sites not yet developed.

We agree with Mr. Nash in his claim that a
“much broader outlook is needed. Vancouver city can-
not hope to.grow.and prosper without J the ‘development
«of the rest of British Columbia! The ‘province must
‘grow as an economic entity, not-as a fot of isolated
communities. This cannot be achieved by anything
less than the maximum development and. distribution
of energy resources in the best public interest.

There are many in B.C. who do not feel that the
public would be best Served by reserving o huge block
of power for an area where a concentration of indus-
try already exists. The Rossland Miner

Ths Castlegar Ministerial ~
Assoclation ll

By Archdeacon B, A. Resker
THE PURPOSE OF LENT

I sometimes think that many
people, myself included, treat our
bodies as parents sometimes treat
an only child. We spoil them and
they become “spoiled brats”,

Our body is meant to be
the Servant of our Minds and
Souls, yet how often is it the
Master, Take laziness, for in-
stance, our bodies crave rest and
relaxation, but when we give in
to our bodies, they become lazi-
ness through excess.

Our Minds are given us by
God to develop and train (even
after we leave school!) How few
of us really exert and train
them? A mental diet of Comics
or the watching of TV isn’t very
stimulating mentally, We ‘need
to discipline our bodies that our
minds: may go on being trained
(especially now that so many
people get so much more ~lel-
sure). Everyone should — read
good books (there are lots in the
local libraries, try a good bio-
graphy.)

The same applies to the soul.
‘We even give way more to our
bodies in the training of our

'souls, How often does the body].

say “You are tired and busy,
pass-up your prayers tonight, you
have had-a very busy week, you
really can’t go to church on Sun-
day”. We are constantly giving
in to our bodies to the detriment
of our Souls. The soul, in con-
sequence, is neglected and slow-
ly becomes unhealthy and_ the
disease of sin creeps in and we
become spiritual cripples and
chronic invalids spiritually.
Lent is the time when we
go into training “that we may

| keep under the bodies” and so

run the race of life victorioualy:

The church bids us FAST,
which is another word for :the
discipline of the body, keeping it
under as the servant of the Mind
and ‘Spirit. For instance get up
a little earlier (fast from bed)
and give more time to talk to
God and think about Him or give
up’ something which gives plea-
sure to your body, just to show
your body. that YOU are the
BOSS.

The church tells us to Pray

According to the nation’s top-
most health guthorities, the evi-
dence is conclusive that fluorida-
tion is an effective and safe pro-
cedure for substantial reduction
of “dental decay.

“What was a hope of a gen-
eration ago is now a fact of pre-
ventive dentistry,” the B.C, Den-
tal Asscciation has reported. .

The emergency of the public
backed by

-,Among:;the latest of hun-

dreds of studies are fluorida-

tion tests set up in three North

A American cities in 1945 —-New-

‘gh, :N.Y., .Grand Rapids,
h., and Brantford, Ontario,

After 10 years, of observa-
it .was ,found that dental
decay was reduced up to ‘an
average .of 60 per cent among

children in the three cities.

All of the nation’s leading
health organizations are in favor
of the measure,

“The means now exist for the
most universal of diseases -—
dental decay — to be brought un-
der a large measure of controll,”

‘a public health official has said.

“It is not unlikely that in
the’ forseable future, a disease
that has plagued mankind for
centuries will be neglected to a
minor status.” _

In areas where flouridation
is lacking, a special fluoride solu-
tion is: applied to. the child’s
teeth, by what is known as topi-
cal application of sodium fluor-
ide,

In this procedure, a special
flouride solution is applied to
the child’s teeth by a dentist or
‘dental hygienist in a series “of
applications, ‘beginning when the

‘| child is about three. This tech-

nique has been found to reduce
dental decay by an average of
about 40 per cent,
