KELLY Tphuman body lias been comnpared to that of a storage battery._ The brain generates-enough elecetricity to iight a 25 watt light bulb. ' _ Our nervous system stretches 45 miles like telephone cables carrying messages back and forth. In comparing the energy of the body to a car battery in simplistic terms, ýthe medics measure the body's nervous systemn with suchiinstrwnents as E. E. G. Electroencephalo- graph that measures the electricai impulses, developed by brain and by the muscles of the heart. These graphic trac- ings of electrical energy developed by the heart muscles are known as eiectrocardiography (EKG or ECG) These impuls- es are vital to life, without them we die. It lis known by scientists that some people have tremen- dous electrical generative Y)owers in their, bodies. Auras of light have been photograpned around their head and bodies, somewhat like the halo around the head of Christ. A Church of Scotland ordained minister'Rev. George Fox treats about 150 people a week, simply by laying his hands on their bodies relieves their ailments with his healing <powers. Could .the secret, be partially çiue to the flow pf electrical energy from the vibrant tieatiy minister to the weakened sick person? Lt' is a known fact that by placing, a weak battery in contactwith a battery full of energy, it will transfer the eniergy from the full one to the weakened. one - until they are equai in energy. Could this rejuvination of the sick be a transfer of energy from the strong to the weak. .'.natures balancing effect? -Electromagnetic, energy, from magnets have been used by. Naturopaths to restore unbalanced energy fields in many area s of the, body.' Our brain is like a compiex computer with intricate circutry operated by electricai energy. Our heart is controlled by electrical impulses trig'gered by chemical responses, circulat- ing our blood throughý 70,000 miles of blood vessels. Virtually the entire body works on internally generated electrical energy., Like a storage battery our -bodies',run down when we are tired, under stress or exposed to excess cold or'heat etc. Body celis contain sodium and potassium electrolytes called the osmotic balance. When the energy fails ini the celis in an area the body suf- fers weakness or pain. When the he art fails to get its elec- tric impulse it stops and death follows. The heart beats 100,000 times a day. Like the- storage battery, electrical energy is produced by acids. A lack of acids i the body can cause metabolic upsets and illness. In death the body is alkaline. Somne of the acids in the body are ascorbîc (Vit. C), hydrochloric (stomnacli acid) without which life wouid not be possible. Others are panizothenfic acid, folic acid, para- aminobenzoic acid, nicotinic acid, and ail 20 essential amino acids. The skin lias amr "acid mantie" to protect against- in- fection (PH of 5.5 to 5.7).1 . The ceils themnselves are formed by Nucleic acid and the mpaster, programmer,Deoxyribonucleic acid (RNA a nd DNA). 1 hav.e found simply-by keeping the body on the acid side I miaintain good health and abundance of energy. 1 have checked my own body PH dozens of times at the onset of beginning to feel îII, had a chlii, or was under stress and found ever>' timne that the acidity lad turned to-aikaline, to a high 7.5 plus. 1 also found that after a good nigîts sleep the PH retw'ned to about 4.5 to 5. This can easily'be- checkedf by using nitrazine paper to test the saliva or urine, the second of which I feel is a better barometeir. When tired or chilled or after a large meai the test always was on the alkaline side sometimes reading as aikaline as soap. The moment I reversed the body to the acid side of the P.H. scale I irnmediately felt better. Germs do not multiply in an, acid medium but flourish in an aikaline oné.

By taking 500 mgs. of Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) ever>' hr u lntil tlhe PH returna e to.the;Acid id.was.he.siples mon cold as an example lias over 100 ditferent strains. ANTIBIOTICS HAVE~ NO VALUE AGAINST VIRUS INFECTIONS, ln fact cani do butin, by destroying vital Lt is interesting to note that vitamin' C alone given termi- nal cancer patients at Scotiands Vale of Leven District Hospital lived an average of aimost FOUR times longer than the patients who received none. Lung cancer patients lived 3.53 times longer, stomacli cance r patients lived 2.61 times long and colon cancer patients iived a significant 7.61 times longer, on the vitamin. C. (Reported in the Proceedings of thie National AcadeMy of Sciences Oct. 76). .The importance'of Vitamin A-the anti-infective vitamin shauld not be over-looked. (halibut liver oil test higli acid.) Ail viruses are principaîlly composed of nucleoproteins-- dlean>' defined proportions of protein and, nucleic acid. When body ceils. are aikaline thc more powerful nucieo- proteins take over.

It expresses my son's view of Cranberry Marsh, and made this family realize what we could lose if the Marsh is ever open to hunters. We realize that the Marsl is not in jeopard ' at this time; but know that if other C.L.O.C.A. areas are opened to hunters it would only be a malter of time before the beauty of the Marsh would be lost. We hope that you can find the space in your paper to print my son's essay, and maybe open other-peoples eyes to the beauty of Crai.berry Marsl. T7harik you, Sincerel>', Vivian VandeBelt 1625 Dufferin St.. Whitby, Ontario. CRANBERRY MARSH Down i Port Whitby we have a place owned b>' the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authorit>'. It is cailed Cranberry Marsh. To get there you go down to Victoria Street and go wcst you will sec a sign which says Lynde Shores Conservation Area. The Cranberry Marsh is part of titis area. You have to park your car in the area provided and walk into the marsh. It is about a haif a mile wallcý, but it is a walk you won't forget. It is one of my favorite places. If you are Iooking for the excitement of a large ixois>' crowd and people chatterlng don't §o to lte marali betcause it is- sometimes-so quiet at the marsh that the sound of your footsteps sound like- thunder, and you feel as_ Ihough you are intruding int a world tInt belongs soiciy 10 God and his feathered friends. Sometimes when I want to be alone, I head for the marshX this place neyer ceases to amaze me. It lias a snal inke which is surrounded b>' marsl reeds. Here you can sec and hear ail kinds of different birds, busily flittcring around get- ting food and looking after their young. Sometimes thc Canadian Geese are there from thc harbour. 1 guess tIc>' like to get away frout people too. If you are reailly Iucky you ma>' be there at the samne time as thc white swan's are.. Tley are reailly something to see so gracefuilly floating on the auict water.1 It is obvious to -me these birds have no fear whulc the>' arc in tIc safety of Cranbcrry Marsh and thce' know it. You wîl aiso sec muskrats, chipmunks and squirrels if you are renîlly quiet. 1 can sit by the hours and watch and listen to the sounds of thc marsh. If you get too lonci> down there you can walk about 50 feet to the beach of Lake Ontario, the saiiboats wili re- mind you titat you are stiil in Wititby and only minutes frout homne. In the witcr I can put on my snowshoes and itead for the miarsh. Maybc you would rather ski either way you can reali>' get up close to somne of -tiese birds andi animals. As the town of Whitby grows and changes andi as I grow andi change, and change we must because that is calleti progress. 1 sincerel>' hope that Cranberry marsh neyer changes andi will always be there. 1 know that my visits to the marsit and my personal thouglits while I am there will qhape alot of the things I do and say as I grow up.I 7à /i&2± c40-~ GAz 'r
