The miners’ story came
first, In July of 1890, prospec-
tors Joe Bourgeois and Joc
Morris staked five claims on
Red Mountain. They went to
Nelson to register their claims,
giving one of them—the Le
Wise—to the deputy mining
recorder instead of paying him
the $12.60 recording fee.

In one of those ironies that

abound in British Columbia's
mining history, the Le Wi

renamed the Le Roi—turned
out to be the richest of the five
claims, yielding $30 million in
gold and copper ore in its 40
years of activity, The mining
recorder sold his interest for

Podiatrist Says Shoes. Can Give”

Falling “head over heels"
in love is not just a foolish
romantic idea, but a medica!
fact, according to a doctor.

Human «sexuality stems
from the foot, says Dr. Willlam:
Rossi in his new book, The Sex
Life Of The Foot And Shoe.

“The foot is. responsible
for the emergence of most of
the erogenous zones ‘of the
body,” added ‘the 57-year-old
podiatrist who has been collect-
ing fascinating facts about feet.
for years,

Dr. Rossi says that in
modern times, the shoes men
and women wear reveal their
sexual personalities,

“Americans spend $11 bil-
Non annually for footwear,” Dr.
Rossi says, “and 80 per cent of
“the vhoes bought are for sex
attraction purposes.”

Dr. Rossi divides shoes
into four categories—sexy, neu-
ter, sexless, and unisex,

Men's shoes come in five
categories—sensuous, mascul-
line, eunuch, macho, and pea-
cock,

“The sexy shoe for women
is the half undressed shoe,” Dr.
Rossi ‘said. “An example is a
stripped sandal with high heels,

“But merely opening the
toe doesn’t automatically put it
in the sexy class. A flat-
heeled, grubby sandal is by no
means sexy.

“Boots can be sexy for
women—provided they are leg-
clinging.

“The neuter shoe is the
plain, often tied-shoe.

“It's usually utilitarian and
always sexually passive. It’s
not ‘sending any sexual mes-
sage, neither accepting nor
rejecting.”

Like death, "taxes are
~ inevitable. But the method
of taxation is subject to

change. We may think that -«
because, former Finance f;
Minister Edgar Benson's ‘\’

“reforms” are only five
years old it's too soon to
change them. On the con-
trary, it’s almost too late!

eee

We've become so ac-

customed, though not re-
conciled. to. taxes that
we're concerned less with
changing the system than
with finding ways to beat
it. A'great army of accoun-
tants and lawyers is de-
ployed to help business-
men make the most of tax
“incentives”. and special
allowances. There is no
such thing as a tax incen-
tive. Each and every tax
is a disincentive. There
are only >forms of relief
from tax disincentives,

eee

In a. profit-oriented

economy the emphasis
should be on cutting costs.
But when profits are taxed
at 50 per cent, the in-
clination is to spend more,
because business costs
“are only 50-cent dollars".
Our whole economy is no
Jonger profit-oriented but
tax-oriented.

eco

A positive, alternative
approach is proposed in a
private research study by
JRF Financial C

‘be taxed -not on’ profits
but on the basis of Net
Business Costs,

Then the incentive
would be on cutting costs
in order to increase profits.
The tax system would re-
inforce sound business
prineiplss rather than

them, as it does
ae
eee

Instead- of ;: making:
business decisions for tax
reasons, businessmen
would make them for
business reasons. Taxing
profits favors inefficient
companies at the expense
of efficient ones-the more
efficient, the more tax. In
a final absurdity, the state
then uses tax monies from
efficient companies to sub-
sidize failing ones — the
free lunch philosophy
again.

@eoe

Taxing costs would put
everyone, including Crown
corporations and foreign
branch plants, on the same
competitive footing. The
study indicates that a tax
of five per cent on net
business costs would pro-
duce more revenue than
taxing profits; enough ‘to
reduce personal income

‘tax and eliminate ‘sales

taxes.

the drab, dreary shoe, usually
black and almost always a lace
oxford.”

But the newer styles, such
as clogs or platforms, are also
sexless, Dr. Rossi says, “With
these shoes, you can't take a
natural step—the soles don't
bend. You have to lift your leg
like a horse.

“It masculinizes the wo-
man’s walk and feminizes the
man's.”

For men, the sensuous
shoe is “sleek, but never
feminine,” says Dr.’ Rossi.

The ‘origin of the name
