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

From i 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.

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

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