Although the secrecy surrounding this case history prevents ‘there being any confirmation of the facts, this account of a rich man's search for a doctor willing to attempt the cloning of him, and for a suitable ‘mother’, makes interesting reading. The moral problems are as difficult as the medical ones, but the book is not written from the moral point of view, but merely as straight reporting of an incredible event. Since the book was pub- lished, various experts have denounced it as a hoax, claim- ing that such a procedure is, as yet, impossible. Read it and see if you can believe it!

He indicts our system : Editor, Castlegar News: The ciftus means much more for the crippled young- sters! We can just hear little hearts pounding at the Castle- | gar Arena on June 26. Next to Christmas and birthday, the circus is probably responsible for more happy anticipation than anything else. " But the circus that is coming to Castlegar is more than just lions, tigers, ele- robatics, jugglers and all the other marvels of three rings. It is the Shrine Circus, This year, that means several Castlegar and District children who are crippled can continue getting assistance in Shrine hospitals — of’ which there are 22, both orthopedic and burn centres—at an annual cost of $39 million. It means that all 196,000 children helped by the Shriners can be sure of help always or the Building Code is liable on summary conviction to @ penalty not exceeding $250.00 plus court costs." “Each ‘day during which such violation is continued shall be deemed to constitute a new and separat violation except where the court otherwise orders.’” Your cooperation will be appreciated.

Testing units are de- * signed for stationing at road- blocks and provide instant breath testing of suspected drunk drivers.

Try putting little scraps of left-over soap into your toilet tank. They will melt into mush and do a pretty good pre- cleaning job for you, Kitchen’ sinks that are tired and worn-looking don't need all those chemicals; let them soak, awhile in some laundry bleach mixed with a little water. Mix up a paste of equal! parts vinegar, salt and flour’ and shine up all the little green bottoms of your copper pots. Let it dry for an hour and wipe clean. Vinegar is still one of the most economical all-purpose household cleaners. A solution of vinegar and water it is good for washing window panes, mir- rors, countertops, etc.” For shiny silver, place it in a bucket with a piece of foil on the bottom, a little Spice and Span and warm water.

Think for a moment * of all the charities in this town and others that ask for direct donations. I won't name them and I certainly wouldn't think of criticizing them.

Rumer Godden, a favorite author, has written a delightful new book on Pekingese spaniels —The ‘Butterfly Lions, the Pekingese in History, Legend and Art’. This ancient breed of dog was considered a living symbol of the Buddhist religion and was highly prized by the Chinese emperors. Many works of art, myths and legends were created around the Pekingese and Miss Godden has collected some ex- quisite examples of oriental derful as United Appeal which lumps many charities together and makes one painless bite per wage- earner. The Shrine Cireus is even more painless, It gives some- thing for what it gets. It gives top entertainment, thrills and much laughter. I realize that there are those who argue that. the charity gets very little out of the deal with the circus and +" those who are critical of actions which let'the ¢ circus ‘or whatever, cash in on the name of the charity and it’s drawing power and take much of, the gravy. We don’t see it that way. This Shrine Circus is one of the best in North America and will put on a performance that won't scon be forgotten, and whatever the Shriners get out of the deal it is money well: earned, well deserved and to be well spent, It is a system that does us all a favor, the circus included. Most people would go to this ‘Big 3 Ring’ anyway just for the fun of it, but Knowing that a crippled child somewhere will benefit should make it all the more enjoyable.
