Half a cen- tury frorn now they may still be paying diiidend: in happy nieniories.

These reflection: suggest that the Carnival spirit is inherent in all of us. and that we have been missing I great deal in life by not giving freer vent to its exuberant manifest- ations. All our past proclaims our hitiire; but we have been keeping it stored in inart-i-ssible places. imag- ining it to he dull and drab because we haven't really visualized it at all. Yesterdays activities should spark further efforts in revitalizing our historic lwritage. Might it not be possible to have annual demonstra- tions of this kind. and not wait until the next centennial. or some other i-are h4'I'.'4.x'lnl1. to invoke the gcnial Spirit of the Years?

But how niurli they will actually spccd up Parliament's work is matter for argument. and they unfortunately have already been it e ized on by the govern- mcnt as justifying its intention not to recall Paliamcnt until January.

That is entirely unsatisfactory. livcryoiic wants Parllanient tu suc- cecd in future 'in ending its work in mid-June. witiiout the ill-tem- pered scramble of high summer. But it it does that. and yet does not reassemble until after the New Your. than public business will go undcbated foi seven continuous mnntlis out of the twelve. That is not good parliamentary govern- ment. Even as it Is. the proposed gap of five months is too long. Far too many important matters re- quiring dcmocratic discussion will accumulate in the meantime.

With the modern volume of pub- llc business, and with faster trav- el between Ottawa and even the must remote constituencies. the propcr way to carry out the busi- ncss of Parliament is plain beyond disintcrcsled dispute. it is to spread the scssion from October or early November to June, with recesses of some lcngtii at Christmas and Easter. in that way members could gct through without The necessity of scrambling or getting over-beab ed. and yet have the breaks that both lessen the strain and enable them to keep in regular touch with their constituencies.

Why is this timetable not adopt- ed? in the absence of any other explanation. it would appear that the Government is not too keen on having Parliament Around for too much of the year; and that many MP3 like. better than any- thing. their half-year or so of free- dom from Ottawa. Those are motives that anyone, who cares for parliamentary institutions should reject; and it is hard to see any other motives for not doing what is sensible.

BEWARE OF POISON IVY!

A real vacation meuuc that's poison ivy. The intense itching caused by the pretty plant toxi codendron has ruined many a sum- mer vacation or holiday outing.

Nowhere. Except in North Amer- ica. will you Contact poison ivy. And it's likely that you will con tract it if you get near enough to the plant. because sixty to eighty per cent of adult Ameri- cans are susceptible.

You don't have to come in di- rect contact with the plant. Poi- son ivy has been contracted from the fur of pets. from the smoke of fires in which it has been burned and from the wind which carried the poison. and from clothing worn three months before.

Symptoms usually begin within 24 to 48 hours aflcr you've been exposed to the plant.

First. yuulll probably nolicc an itchy, burning rash. Then blisters, loozing sores and scaling. Or- dinarily, the ailment will run its course in about two weeks. Severe attacks. however. frequently take several weeks to heal.

If you've had poison ivy before. or have reason to suspect that you are susceptible. you must not only avoid the plant. but use care in handling clothing. tools and playthings which might baic been in contact with it.

In some cases. dcseiisitizatiun inoculations with small doses of extract, which are taken before the ivy season begins, will give immunity. A lotion combining 8 potent antihistaniiuic with hydrous zirconium oxide in bristamin lo- tion with zirconium will give pro- tection if it is applied before con- tact or up to eight hours after contact with the poisonous plant.

But what if you do gcl poison ivy. What should you do tlicn'.'

As quickly as possible--you must do it within an hour after cxposureAreniove the poison from the surface of the skin by I thorough washing with ordinary kitcbcn soap, a soap that is strong- ly alkaline. Repeat the wasluug sevcral times.

There are many uintiiirnts such as llydrocorlone or Ziirudryl Cream which give rclicl. ACTH might be helpful. Applications of cold cloths wrung out in ice water probably will control intense spasm.

After the eruption has appcured.

you can apply one or two heaping teaspoonfuls of sodium bicarbonate or of magnesium sulfate mixed in

i one cup nf water.

Historic

(Ottawa Citizcul

The iurcstiture in Loitdon of Mr. Vincent Massey with the insignia .of a Bailiff Grand Cross calls to mind the long and romantic his- tory of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. Mr. Massey. Canada's Governor-General and Prior of-the Order in Canada. is the first Canadian to receive this honor and one of 10 persons to whom it is iestricted apart from members of the royal family.

When the Cruszulcrs caplurcd Jerusalem in 1087. a hospital tlicrc attracted favor. It had been founded for pilgrims by Charlemagne, (les- troyed. reslorcd by the Benedict- ine: and dedicated to St. John. The Augustinian monks spread its work. for which a demand arose in many countries, and wealth poured in. The Knights of St. John became militaristic as well as humanitarian. As the Crusades ebbed. they retreated -- fighting and trading busily in each era-to Cyprus. Rhodes and then in Malta - granted by Charles V in 1535 and surrendered by a weak Grand Master to Napoleon.

In Rome. the palace of the Knights of Malta is the world's smallest sovereignty. though its constitution in relation to the pa- pacy has been under review. it fills its first two degrees from Europe's Catholic aristocracy - the Knights of Justice. who take monastic vows. and the Knights

The return of uldlers and the return of peace and prosperity after World War II have made their numerical mark on the pop- ulation of Peterborougli. There are 3,719 children in town born in the nine years from 1946 onward. There are only 5.710 born In the nine years before 1946.

There need be no reluctance by Canada to sell wheat to Russia and other Communist countries. But why Russia should need to import wheat is one of the wonders of the world. The vast area of Russia contains much of the best agricultural land in the world. D8?" ticularly the Ukraine. There is plenty of virgin soil stilfavailable in Siberia. a district cllmallcltlly akin to the Western prairies which produce Canada's best wheat. Communism never has be-en able to make a success of agriculture. The C munist system and high road production seem incomP3l- ible. -Windsor Star.

There are some 900 l'. S. 310- 000 bills in circulation, that is if 510.000 bills can be said to cir- culate. The fact is. however. that anyonc coming into possession of 3 310.000 bill has a bit of I head- ache on his hands as well as I sizeable bit of wealth. First there is the problem of getting change for I bill of such denomination. Secondly the banks are naturally very curious about it. They want to know who is offering it. and where it came from. One. U. 5. bank executive advises the beat procedure is to deposit the bill like a cheque. Then if the bill and depositor prove "clean" to draw on it. This may be one of the reasons that the number of

In England. Henry VIII seized the Order's properties and the Protector Somerset used the stone of its church at Clerkcnwell for I palace. leaving only the great gateway over St. John street.
