THE CHURCH BELL:

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 the U.S. government-owned

Further meetings’ are planned, officials here say, to set the terms of sale, if and when final agreement is reached.

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-
