Editoi SANTA CLAlS I'KOMISKS They had an election in the province of Alberta last week, and a new Legislature was chosen. A revolutio , wa.s effected, which has broui;hi con- trol into the hands of the promoter of a seductive proKiani, who is a Jiovice in political life, as arc hi-i entire following' in the .'Xssfmbly The United Farmers' (iovernment •which has been in power since r.i21 »nd its supporters, were practical!'. blotted out, and wliat is known aj th« Social Credit triumphed by a larsrt majority. Owing to the rather com plicated method of counting the votes there has been delay in ascertaining prefers not to be known as "the Hon- orable Sir So-und-So, Bart." Indeed we have had in this r.oM\ Province ot ours u Bartinet ekeinjjr out an obscure life as a junior clerk in a >rovernineni office in Toronto, and in receipt ol the princely sum of $10 weekly. The first Baronet was one of the original Family Compact â€" or a close relation -but later holders of the title had met Willi bad luck in their financial ventures and so the title was seldom lrc)Ujrltt to the front, and becamt extinct when the clerkly holder passed away. The absurdity <if awardin;; heredit- ary h'jnors on anyone in a democratic land, such as ours, cannot be irainsayed. •v>**-x-:«««'>«>'>->«<~>«:~X":":-:~:":- Y I Other Papers' I .

JThose on the spot intimate thai the political upheaval is easily explain- able. For sundry rva.'ons â€" high taxes, inability to sell their surplus farm products at a profit, and uneconomical management of public affairs thai, has resulted in over-borrowing â€" the pro- vince has got perilously near bank- ruptcy, and in this crisis it ha, not been very difficult to convince very many of the electors that a cliangt was needed. And s:, when the plaus- ible Mr. Aberhart came along with n <k finite promi.se that, if given tic power, he would hand out to c very person in the province, over 21 yc.Tiv ('{ age, a bonus of twenty-five d''l!ar.- a month, in aildition.to revolutionizing the relations between the producers and the consumers in the province, ht was gladly acclaimed as a vciiti'ble .Santa Claus, and his was the triumph. Now that the election is over, !io\v- ever, the teaihei -preacher-leader and his associates are having some sober | second thoughts, foi- it is arnjunccd that after all pre-election promises the bonuses cannot be ))ri>vided i'cr at hast eighteen months, and who knows what may happen before then? The Aberhart government may n.t live flat long, and if it does, how does it hope to raise the hundre<l and twenty million dollars or more a year re.|uired to pay the bonus pledged to all grown- ii|.s within the I'lovince? Th'.y may t'lint promises to pay, and sta'' them en circulation but can they nial;.; the public accept thoni ? Since society is nothing apart from the men and women of which it is fashioned it can never ignore this right of freedom without courting its own destruction. Yet this freedom is not the freedom for men to do a.s they please. Even in primitive soc- iety this freedom is denied and the complex demands of civilization deny it in a thousand ways. When men agree to live together for the sake of work or happiness, they set limits to their l)ehaviour and agree to live be- neath a code and law. Yet the right of freedom remains. It is a right not to natural but to spiritual free- dom. I ts most vital dwtrine is that men have no right to think as they plea.sc. Man as a member of society has duties rather than rights. As an individual his rights are supreme. The problem of society is to appoint to each man his duties while scrupulously ; necessary t protecting his rights. For in the right of man to think as he ideases lies the only hope for endurance and lieifcction of safety Dangerous Practice.

A number of the neighbors galhr-'- ed on Friday evening at the home ol Mrs. Brown, sons and daughter. Since the burning of their home they have been temporarily located in the Wm. Aldcorn house. After an houi spent in social chat Mrs. Brown wa^ reipiested to come forward and an addrf^ss was read by Mr. Watson and a suan of money presented by Fred Knox. Mrs. Brown was completely taken by surprise and asked her son, David, to come to her assistance. Dave very feelingly and kindly thanked the neighbors for their gen- erous thought and act. Lunch was then served and all gathered around the organ and enjoyed a real sing- song. Following is the address read '0 Mrs. Brown: Dear Mi-s. Brown and Family. We were all very .sorry when your home was recently destroyed by fire and we realize that words alone would fail to adequately express our feelings in this regard. When you moved into our njidst last winter you also moved into our hearts and circle of fellowship When any misfortunf enters any home it enters the home.- of all. Because of this we feel that a tangible expression of our interest is a natural result: no effort is even accomplish this. May you feel that this is so at the present time, when we ask you to accept the accompanying gift as an expression of our interest in your welfare Mease accept this in the spirit In which it is given, a spirit of neigh- b ily fellowship that grows in hearts that are generous.

Every capacity which living matter possesses has come to it through in- heritance. The human body has an in- l)orn ov inherited capacity to defend itself again.st disease. This cap- acity must be developed before it can become powerful to be an effective force in the preservation of life and health through the prevention of dis- pose. We start out in life with a store of i)rotective substances carried over from our mothers. These are grad- ually lost. When the child is six months old, he is entirely dependent upon the capacity of his body for pro- tection again.st disease. The body of the child has inherent capacities for defence, but the par- ticular defensive foives which are used to meet the attack of any one kind of disease germs are not pro- duced until the body is stimulated to do so by the presence of these same germs in the body. This would be all very well, but only too often the attack of the dis- ease germs is so severe that the body is overwhelmed before it has time to develop the strength of its defensive forces. Nature does succeed in build- ing up protection or immunity, but the price is much suffering, a great deal (if permanent physical damage and many deaths. Nature devised as a protective pro- cess the development of immunity by the prtxluctioii of i)rotective substances in the body. Science has sought to .secure immunity by stimulating the production of protective substances and e(ii:sequent immunity, while a- voidin.g the risk to life involved in nature's iirocess. The aim of preventive medicine is to build up the undeveloped protec- tive forces of the body before the body is attacked; then, if elisease germs do pain entrance to the body, they will be disarmed at once and no harm will result. l!i|.Ltheria immunipation means that by the inieclion of diphtheria toxoid, a harmless substance, the boely i.-; stimulated to proeluce and keen on hand, diphtheria antitoxin quantitie?. Diphtheria germs do their damage by the toxin or poison which they pro- duce in the body. This toxin is neu- tralized by antitoxin, and the body which contains diphtheria antitoxin is protected or immune as far as the disease, diphtheria, is concenvd. What .science has d.me is to n.-fc nature's way while removing the dan- gers which were associated with the process when it was left to nature. Again, man has. in the use of his in- tellingence. come to understand the laws of nature, and then, building up- on this knowledge has been able to fight, with success, such a persistent an<l dreaded foe as diphtheria. .•\re your children immune a.gainst diphtheria? 1 Specials LADIES' HOUSE DRESSES Kv'^SZm $1.39 LADIES' SILK BLOOMERS 29c WORK SHIRTS Mcir.s Bij- 15 lirand 69c MEN'S SILK SOX 19c MEN'S TIES 25c GALVANIZED PAILS 19c FLY COILS , 3 for 5c FLY SWATTERS 10c- Full Line of TOILET ARTICLES A. 1), VARIETY STORE McINTYRE.
