It silhsleultiatcs ttle fact that t h c sclicnle is no "pipe dream". that the- Provincial tiovernnlent has bccli study ing it for the past six months and that it has ll real prospect of silcccss iii, as the Premier states. it is not killed in advance by adverse criticism. l-le,staics that all the ob- jections raised by Mr. Kickham will be fully answered ill ihc l.cgislatul'e. Tllat is the proper place to have them discilsscd; and all our mem- bers. if they Choose. can get in on the act and state their views on the basis of concrete information rather than of hearsay.

The full-scale survey advocated

by the Charlottetown Board of Trade is being pressed for by the Government, which has gone much further into the matter than was generally supposed. and is already well informed on silch questions as the effects on our fisheries. on navi- gation and ice conditions. These matters. naturally, would be of first concern to any Government. and the Premier was emphatic in stating that t.here is no cause for concern on these grounds. '7 This is very reassilrillg. No pur- Tpose would be served by further comment on the subject. at this time. The Premier's statement will be nfade early in the session, and we alga-.ll await it with much interest.

Notable Anniversary

Last Sunday was the 147th birth- day anniversary of Abraham Lin- " . the sixteenth and, without dgubt. the greatest, President of the Uiilted States. This week, all over the Republic unrestrained homage will be done to l1Ls memory. And, all oder the world, where free men pon- T the troubles of the present and the prospects of the future. the in- fluence of his life and work will be discussed and honoured. When, on that fateful night of April 14, 1865. W. Lincoln died from an assassin's bilillet. Secretary of War Stanton observed: ”Now he belongs to the ages". So, indeed, it turned out to be. From the earliest known bene- factor of the human race right down to Albert. Schweitzer and Winston Churchill, the world has known only in few m'en and womene-perhaps no more than a dozen;who could fair- ly be placed in the category of greatness in which the name of Ab- raham Lincoln is very near the top. Troublcd as human society is in so many ways. and weak though demo- cracy is in many of its pliliscs. there can be little doubt that human rc- lationships today would. be much more fcar-ridden titan thcy arc. and democratic institutions much less effective. if Lincoln hlld not passed through the world and left such an indelible imprint on its destiny.

What things are seen by the spirit of Abraham Lincoln. hover- ing over the country which in his life he loved and served so well?

Many things. both good and bad. (liltstalidiilg among the former. per- haps. is a fixed determination on the part of the American peoplc that, as Mr. Lincoln himself had urged. "government of the people. by the pcoplc. and for the people. shall not perish tom the earth". There are times, t be sure when this ideal is marred and torn by dcmagogic treachery; bill it is still alive and very much a part of the true con- science of the nation On the other and less worthy side. there remains a nectional concept of freedom which is wounding the heart of the nation. It seems incredible that 91 years ailter Mr. Lincoln's passionate de- sire for freedom for all men of all races passed into the chronicle of the age. I young Negro girl should be prevented by icon and threats of bodily Jamil . from exercising I right which ha: been "Pheld by the highest low of the land. Nor is she tithe only am. Thoustnds of her this lament on uthriq

persecution simpu nccausi '-my covet freedom ulider Ihe law

This. too. will pass. Already, wiser and more just counsels are beginning to be hcaril ill the south. Some dayait may not be for a long time yet. for old uilirlgoliisnis die hardelvlr. Lincoln's drcanl will be fulfilled; and all citizens of the Un- ited States. North and South. East and West, will joili in proclaiming the truth and good sens” of his COD-r viction that no socicty can long en- dure half slave and half frcc.

The Kazan Cathedral

Soy let apologists are fond of say- ing that. despite the aliti-l'elif-Zl0llb' basc of Marxism, no cllilrclics in the Sovlci l'llion havc llccn burned or otlicmim done away with. That lllii) bc true. There are otllcr ways. llowcxcr. of destroying tllL1I't'liPa' without demolishing their smile and brick and mortar. ()lli' favorite method employed by tlic, sovicts is that of collicrting edifices formerly ilsed to r worship into buildiligs which help to emphasize the hold uliicli the Colnmunistic philosophy has plcsxxcd on the life of modern Russia.

Mr. lloiiicc Sutton, ii contribut- ilig editor of the Saturday Review of Literature, who recently returned from a trip which took him behind the iron curtain. tells in the latest issue of that magazilie of what has happened to one of the oldest Cath- edrals in the Soviet Union. the Kazan in Leningrad. "Defunct as a place of worship". Mr. Sutton writes. ”the Kazan has become the museum of the History of Religion. Actually, it is a shocking anti-religious mu- scum.

”'l'he Soviet dogma of science over religion is symbolized at the door where the visitor comes face to face with a portrait of Lomonsov, father of Russian science. and far- ther on. a bronze of a famous eye doctor. The exhibitors tie the Church to Russian capitalists with paintings depicting Christ followed by the people carrying a cross (the Church) while atop the crossbar a top-batted bourgeois sits in the driv- er's seat. urging the citizens on. There are panels on Greek my- thology, Ohristianity. and Judaism. attempts to show that the idea of Christ. and the Resurrection was adapted from mythology”. In addi- tion, Mr. Sutton reports, he saw scores of caricatures of the Chris- tian religion in all its phases. Yet, there are those in the West who pro- fess to believe that religion will be- fore long rcassert its influence in the lives of the Soviet people! How can that be. when the young gener- ation is obligcd to absorb this fear- ful dogma based on ridicule and scorn of all religion and of the Chris- tian tradition in particular?

EXERCISE PRESCRIBED

FOR FROZEN SHOULDER

With virtually everyone consci- ous of snow and ice these days. it's probably a good time to dis- cuss : very painful ailment. the frozen thoulder.

Despite its name. this ailment. of course, has nothing to do with the winter weather. Technically. it's called chronic adhesive peri- arthritis of the shoulder.

EXTREMELY PAINFUL

It might be. started by ll fall or by throwing ll baseball or some other object. Over a period of time. sometimes years. it gradually be- comes worse. Eventually. bands of scar tissue are formed and any movement. of the shoulder is ex- iremcly painful. '

While -your doctor may recom- mend specific treatment. he'll pro- bably also advise a few stretch- ing exercises.

At first, these exercises will be painful. If your shoulder trouble is in the advanced stage. your phy- sician probably will havc to help you perform them. If it isn't. YOU may be able to tolerate the initial pain and continue with the move- ments by yourself.

SIMPLE EXERCISE

Before explaining sonic simple exercises. let mi: cllipllzisim that

you shouldn't try them wiilioilt apv i

prilval of your doctor.

Here are exercises often recolnniend:

With your painful arm. NIYNP 8 firmly anchored abject like a strap or rope fastened to the top of R doorway. Usillg your good ill'lll as an aid. left yoilr ailing arm as litith as possible and take 3 firm hold. Thcn squat as milch as pain will permit. placing your weight on the extended arm. Repeat this l0 or 15 times every half hoilr.

BEHIND BACK

Another exercise is to grasp your ailing arm behind your back with your good band and pull it as far ilp your back as possible. Do this lit to 12 times evely half hour.

A third exercise is to grasp the hand of the painful arm with your

that doctors

T other hand behind your head. Then

slowly. move the elbow of your painful arm forward and then back in a side positinn again. This can he done 10 to 20 times each 30 minutes.

You'll be sul'priscd how quickly these exercises can improve your arm movements.

QUESTION AND ANSWER

R. S. M: What are the symp- toms of diabetes?

Answer: Symptoms of diabetes consist of loss of weight and stren- gth. sometimes itching of the skin. the development of infections. in- creasing appetite and thirst and frequent emptying of the bladder.

Self-Lighting Cigars

The early days nf the match in- dusiry were punctuated with the explosions of many odd devices for making fire easily.

The self lighting cigar. wearing it cap treated with match composi- tinn, appeared early in the filth L-cllillry in Austria. When the cigar was "strilck', it burst into flame and the smoker inhaled the com- illcd fumes of phosphorus. glue. paper and tobacco - but he had it light!

On the more practical side. there was the "drullkard's match” creat- cd by the Diamond Match Co. in H382. which was used by hon viv- ants for 20 years.

The splint of this match was so treated that it would not burn heyond midpoint. thus avoiding burned fingers for those who had indulged too heavily.
