Father William Again "You are old. Father William." the young man said: "but did you ever hear the like of the debate that's going on in the Legislature these dal's'.’ They say they‘re going to pry the liquor situation wide open. That means ruining all our young people with booze. filling our and churchyards. and making the government rich by forcing the‘ rest of the population to d rink themselves into prosperity. I don't understand it at. all. ; “As I see it." said Father \l‘il- liam. "it‘s as plain as a pikestaff. There's the forces of sin trying to make our people do their drinking out in the open—shamelessly—in (lilting-rooms. lounges and whatnot. instead of in the privacy of back al- leys and locked rooms. as we're ac- customed to. And there‘s the forces of; righteousness that are appalled at; the consequences this kind of be- havior is going to have on our pith- lic morals. .“Pco1ile. they argue. can't be. stopped from getting drunk but there's no need of the government piishing it in front of them—and incidentally ruining the business of all the bootleggers in the Province. if! a thing is sinful. why do it in the open '3 they say. '_ “We've been moving pretty fast sihce the Liberals changed the old Pi‘ohibition Act. first by introduc- ing tourists' scripts and then by authorizing the Commission to pelddle special licenses on the side. tol canteens and clubs that would keep their mouths shut and not al- low the i'iffraf in. Then the Tories wént further and allowed the ven- dors to sell more booze by the bottle. and loosened up the club liocnscs so that practically every~ body that wanted to guzzle in com— pany could do so without having to eat meals in the. process. as propos- ed now That allowed them to kccp their minds on their drinking. which isiwhat the forces of righteousness. in.our Legislature maintain is the only proper way to indulge in this, sinful practice. But Judge Trainoi' piit the kibosh on that.

"But 1 must confess that I have gravo doubts a bout whether those. old fellows ever got into Heaven. despite all the. praises wo're giving them now That John A.

And there was no decent concealment at. all! The Governor. the Mayor. the Premier and the whole local shebang drank openly with the visiting delegates. and had what can only be described as a whale of a sinful time." g“Outrageousl" exclaimed shbcked young man. l"Funny thing. though." said his gi‘pndsire. “they all seemed able to hcfid their liquor and get on with thb business of confederating Can- subs next day.

The work of committees of the Senate was e at. some length by Mr. Connolly. It is here. of coursc. that the greater experience and com- parative absence of partisan politickinz. cnahles the Senate to outshine the Commons.

We ' know then what we know now about sanitation. the p r o p e r treatment of infections. and the stresses associated with weaning process. These intestinal infect io n s and toddlers in past generations. In New York City in 1 example. the death rate fr 0 m diarrhea during the first year life was 5.603 per 100.000; years later. it was 45 per 100.~ 000. This still is much too hizh but is a great improvement over today's mortality rates this cause in underdeveloped countries. We can credit our more favor- communicable diseases. Babies obtain better and clearer food during the transition from breast milk to solids. But diarrhea continues to be the leading cause of dea among infants in Central and South American nations such as Guatemala. Mexico. Brazil. and :4" as it was in the United Statcs.
