(t will be interesting to watch the actions of
“Bert Herridge during the life of this next parliament.
A former president of the B.C. Liberal Association,
the present member of parliament for Kootenay West
tan independent CCF in the 1945 federal election. He
was ful and was diatel i d into the
CCF caucus ofa CCFer. Mr. Herridge has béen suc-
cesful in every federal election since that time,, being
returned regularly with a huge majority. But it is in
the votes he has piled up that the horse of a differ-
ent color is to be found. - 7

Mr. Herridge, as any local CCF member will
admit, draws support from all parties in this riding.
The reason he does is that he is a popular and con-
scienscious person. The man in the street sees him
as willing and able to do his job, the business man
and free enterpriser sees him as a good left-wing
iLiberal—a man interested in social welfare, but not’
‘the type of man who will nationalize industry and
‘bring Canada to her knees. It was a Liberal member
of Parliament, C. G. “Chubby” Power, who said of
Mc. Herridge: “The best Liberal in the house sits in
the opposition benches, he is the honorable member
for Koatenay West.’ :

Cy
Simce 1935 the party in power has always com-

nmanded:a majority and. hence Mr. Herridge in voting
‘against certain bills has been excused by his free
enterprise followers on the grounds that the bill was
mot comprehensive enough in what it intended to
-echieve and hence Mr. Herridge’s negative actions
“were more or less a protest. But now the Conservative
‘minority government will require.all the supporting
-votes it can muster—a difference of one vote may
‘mean the fall of the government. It is here Mr. Her-
ridge wilt play a paramount role,

Prime Minister Diefenbaker promised on the’
hhustings more competition wuld be allowed the CBC
sand TCA. Mr. Caldwell has denounced these pro-
posals. If these matters, and ones like them, are
presented at the sitting starting Monday and the
[CF group find them distasteful, Will Mr. Herridge
<vote against them and perhaps bring about the fall
eof the government cond thus alienate his free enter-
“arise supporters; or will he support the bills and alien-
sate his teue CCF followers. Mr. Herridge will be in a
Vicklish position for the next few weeks; it will be

interesting to watch him when the division bells ring.

TIMELESS TOPCS

By Rev. ‘A. O. MeNeil

One hears a great deal to-
day about-the need of change in
religion. It is expressed in some
such way as this: we need a new
emphasis in religion, or, we need
new approach to erligion, or a
new style in preaching.

I. pealize that ,this is a day

"in which people are looking for

something new in almost every-
thing; new styles, new gadgets in
the home, new organizations, new
kinds of entertainment, new ways
to. spend our leisure hours, We
are constantly on the look out for
something new to ‘flavour life
and give it an added zest which
will relieve the monotony of the
daily round of every day living,
Some say, “Anything*for a cha-
nge.” And we see so many trying
just “anything.”

Some of the things we see
People giving their lives to would
be very funny, if it were not so
tragic. The things we give our-
selves to has such a far reaching

. @ffect on others, particularly the

ones whose eyes are on us to see
what makes ‘us tick, to see

_ what, we find exciting In life.

Some of them want to set the
course of their lives by what

_ they see in us that gives mean-
_ ing and purpose to our lives.

It is an accomplishment in
these days to have a sense of
humour, But it is a little diffi-
cult to see the humorous side of
life when there is so much tra-

" gedy in the world about us.

A few years ago a book wag
published on humor, It -deals
with the years from 1865 to 1938.
In it there.is a cartcon by
F. Oppen which was first printed
in 1895,

At that time there was quite
a eraze in the country. From the

Association? 5

This national association of
Canadian lawyers was founded in
1914 by Sir James Aikins. He was
born in 1851 at Richview, Peel
County, Upper Canada, and ser-
ved as a lawyer both in Ontario
and Manitoba. He was lieuten-

community formerly was called
New Holland because of the
large number of German and
Dutch Loyalist settlers, It sprang
into importance at the time of
the building of the canal and be-
came a thriving community with
many stores and industries, most
of which went out of existence
soon after the comptetion of the

Who is Yousuf Karsh?

Many of the outstanding per-
sonalities of the times have sat
for camera portraits by Yousuf
Karsh, a famous photographer
who lives in Ottawa. Born in Ar-
menia, he came as a. child to
Sherbrooke, Que. ‘and later stud-

Of from
1916 to 1926 and was a member
of several Royal Commissions.
Sir James, who was knighted: in
1914, represented Brandon in the
House of Commons and at one
time was leader of the Conser;
vative party in Manitoba.

* Where was the Welland: Canal

begun?

A memorial cairn at Allans-
burg, Ont., marks the spot where
the first sod for the original Wel-

pulpits there heard the. word
that the bicycle was taking the
people to the country on Sunday
and away from the Church. Many
suggestions were heard to remedy

ied in Boston. Open-
ing a studio in Ottawa, he spec-
ialized in portrait photography.
At Ottawa in 1941, he took the
widely reproduced photograph of
Sir Winston Churchhill that
brought him international recog-
nition. He has travelled about
the warld to take pictires of
famous people, and a selection of
these photographs was. publish-
ed in book form in 1947 under
the title “Paces of Destiny”.

preaching to a large gathering of
cyclists following along on their
wheels,’ Two horses..draw the
wagon and they are driven by a+
with high hat and

automobile for the bicycle and it
sounds very modern, does it not?

In this particular cartoon Mr.
Oppen sums up: all’ the, suggest-
ions. He shows a four wheeled
vehicle known as = wagon, with

a platform instead of the reg-

ular wagon. bed, On it, back of

the driver’s seat, is an organ with"

a few pipes. Music is prominently
displayed andthe organist is
seated. Coming from the organ
and rising over the pulpit at the
wogon's rear is‘a sea shell sound-
ing board, ‘The pulpit is at the
rear end of the wagon. The prea-

whip. Holding the reins and whip
in one hand he rings a suspended
church bell with the other.’ It is
all very humorous.

But ‘is it really any different
from the suggestions frequently
heard, and’ sometimes put into
effect, of an automobile chapel?
Times change.. The horse makes’
way for the auto, Séme con-
gregations try to meet .every
change of the social structure,
putting the emphasis on the cha-
much. change is necessary in. the

There are times when even an atomic bomb
would be relief to the eternal crying and shrieking
which passes for music these days on the radio. If
any proof was needed that our culture was making a
complete capitulation to the femenine despotism, that
deadly, souless, syrupy, senambulistic, soporific sloppy,
sudsy soap-opera served on a combination of honkey-
tonk side-show, carousel and central African fertility

imitative and un-inspired in woman-kind finds ex-

phony. But it has a purpose. :

And the so-called lyrics, Being exposed to the
‘music’ is bad enough, but if one is unfortunate
enough to have to listen to the drivelings and ravings
that accompany it and hears the “boo-boo-boos’, ‘goo-
goos’ and other such assorted assinanities that as-
sault his ears,, he is indeed a sorry case. Worst of all,
however is he who has the misfortune to understand
some of the words — when there are words, The
idiot egoists of a generation ago were satisfied with
the ‘moon-spoon-croon’ type of inspiration generously
interlarded with “1, ‘Me’, ‘We! and ‘You’. Now that
women have taken over seventy percent of the wealth
of thig continent by direct control they can not only
call the tune, (and even in this miserable field their
curious lack of creativeness shows its self,.

What then could be easier to so practical a crea-
ture as woman. ‘Popular’ music, ‘loud, gooily romantic
and endlessly repetitive is perfect mate-bate. And
since as many surveys show, women are far more pre-
occupied with men than are men with women, what
ig more natural than carrying on the age-old pursuit
the modern way, with—‘music’. |

Please don’t misunderstand me. | am not con-
derning the fair sex for being unfair. The originator
of. the saying ‘all is fair in love and war' was almost
undoubtedly a woman, who being driven by instincts
far deeper and fundamental than the more highly
evolved male, pursued her natural quarry unhampered
by any such childish nonsense as ‘sportsmanship’ or
‘playing the game’ ‘Love’, as some philosopher-poet
has said, ‘is to man a thing apart, but to a woman,
everything.’ Since Nature has made woman the per-
petuator of the race it is little wonder therefore that
women not only spend more time thinking abeut men
but thinking of more ways of domesticating them as
well. ‘Modern music is therefore from their int
another. weapon in their stockpile, another arrow to
their bow.

_. Why is then, you ask, that the majority of shriek-
ihg, hysterical fans at an Elvis Presley show are fe-
males? It’s easy. Nothing excites the, hunter instincts
of the pack so much as wounded and struggling pray.
His performance is calculated to give the impression
of just such a love-smitten victim, and the hunting
instincts of these junior Dianas are inflamed and they

- react accordingly. They havn't yet learned to hide
their teeth and claws—poor things.
