REGIONAL ECUMENICAL PARISH

from

Easter Baptisms
Part of last Sunday's

United Church Easter service,

saw the baptism of several
young children, Easter used to
be’ the regular. occasion for
‘baptism in. the early church.

The symbolism of baptism
at Easter represents how the
Christian life, which begins at
baptism, is made possible by
the gifts of faith and hope let
loose into ‘this world by the
resurrection of Jesus.
Baptism and the United Church

In the United Church there
is provision both for adult
baptism and for child baptism.

Adults who were not bap-
tized as children may express
their commitment to the Chris-
tian way by baptism, usually
associated with their becoming
members of the church. Child-
ren are baptized in the belief
that they, too, are able to
experience the salvation of God
in a way appropriate to their
age.

Parents of children to be
baptized must promise to bring
them up in the Christian faith.
It is up to the youngster, when
he becomes an adult, to publicly
declare for himself his own faith
by church membership, or, as it
is also called, confirmation.

The once common practice
of baptizing: babies as a social
custom, without commitment to
Christian life and faith by the
parents, is definitely dis-
couraged.

Parents are reminded that
baptism is an initiation into the
church, with the expectation
that Christian worship, tedch-

- ing, dedication, and service will

become a part of the child

through the influence of the ~

home life,and of the local con-
gregation. z

Parents are encouraged to
prepare themselves: for the
baptism of their children, and,
if necessary, delay such bap-
tism until they can make their
promises toward the child with
sincere understanding and

In Proposed Water Deal With U.S.

B.C. to ‘‘Fine-Tune’’ Columbia

Ifthe price is right, British
Columbia is willing to sell
Canadian water to help gener-
ate more power in the United
States. *

Top-level talks were held
in Vancouver last March 14
between B.C. Hydro chairman
Robert Bonner and officials of

set the terms of sale, if and

White House aide Walter
Kallaur, working on President
Jimmy Carter's drought emer-
gency projects, says: “We have
the impression the Canadians

_ are interested.”

Bonner confirmed in a
telephone interview that pre-
liminary contacts had been
made concerning the possible
sale of up to five million acre
feet of water stored behind the
Mica Dam. .

Bonner avoided words
such as “selling water” and
spoke instead of “fine-tuning
the (Columbia) River flow.” The

water, he said, “eventublly will
float down to the United States
anyway. All we are talking
about is fine-tuning the river.”

There are not even pre-
liminary figures as to how much
the water is worth because
many variables are involved,
says Hector Durocher, power
manager at the Bonneville
offices in Portland, Ore.

If the water is used first to
generate power for B.C. Hydro,
that would influence the price,
says Durocher. “If the same
water is used to help young fish

get safely through the power:

turbine’ down river that would —
add to its value. If ‘on top of
that, logging operations benefit
from higher water levels that,
too, would be worth money.”

Carter administration: of-
ficials are showing strong in-
terest in Canadian water—and
not only because of the current
drought in parts of the U.S.

British Columbia has been
approached about mutually
beneficial ways to use the Mica
reservoir water on a continuing
basis, one Washington source
admitted. He did not disclose
the province's response.

From Ministry of Tronsport

Decision this Summer

The ministry. of transport
will decide in June or July
whether the Nelson. airport
runway will be extended to ac-
commodate larger propeller
and turbo propeller aircraft,
according to Kootenay West
MP Bob Brisco.

Brisco said his research
assistant heard of the decision
deadline from the ‘ ministry's
Ottawa offices.

The Vancouver“represent-
ative for the ministry feels the
extension is worth doing, and
has put it on his list of priorities
which has been forwarded to
the capital, Brisco said.

While the federal govern-
ment would pay for any major
improvements to the airport,
the city is investing its own

money to make way for the
work,

Cottonwood Creek is being
diverted away from the west
end of the runway, and the old
creek bed would later be filled
in to’make land for the ex-
tension.

City council re-submitted
its application for the 500-foot
extension in February. The
original application was made
three years ago.

Under the plan, pavement

would be extended 400 feet to ,

the west and 200 feet ‘to the
east. That would make the run-
way more than 3,000 feet long.
The Castlegar airport run-
way is 5,300 feel long and ac-
commodates 15 tq 20 passenger
propeller airplanes daily.

‘Disease
~ Immunity

The ability of the body to
resist disease is termed. im-
munity. General immunity is a
state’ of health sufficient to
resist disease.

Specific or acquired im-
munity is.a defense against
infection developed through
exposure to germs or their
products,

Immunity may be acquired
during the course of a disease
by the development of anti-
bodies (protective substances)
against the invader. It may also
be produced artifically through
vaccines that cause the body to
build immunity against parti-
cular diseases without actually,
or only rarely, producing them.

The use of vaccines has
almost irradicated the ravages
of smallpox, diphtheria,
tetanus, whooping cough, and
polio in this country.

We are constantly exposed
to innumerable disease-produc-
ing germs, but disease, occurs
only when our immunity is too
low to resist bacterial attack.

Life ‘carries many risks
against some of which we can
build a defence. If you have
neglected to protect your child-
