Year after year, however, the evidence in favor of fluoridation has been accumulating. A growing num-’ ber of communities have tried it and proven its beneficial effects. It has the support of practically every medi- cal and dental organization on the ' continent, and there is no doubt that in time it will become universally ac- cepted, as vaccination and inoculation are accepted today as necessary pre- cautionary measures in the fight against disease. These measures, too, met with bitter opposition when first ' introduced, and for some years there- Me = : In the meantime, it is saddening to reflect.on the number of children who are deprived of the benefits of fluoridation, and for whom its intro- duction, when it comes, will come too late. This is. what prompted Health Minister Henry Wedge‘to speak out'so' strongly in the Legislature on the subject the other day. “The teeth of ~-the~-childrén-of--Prince -Edward—Is-. land,” he warned, “‘are in a deplorable | | | a ie state and_there are not enough den-- tists to take care of theni.

The Government has given its reasons for -not. complying with. theses demands, and they may be perfectly valid ones. But the Opposition’s right to present them is equally valid. . Supporters of the party in power would do well to attend to their own knitting, and let the Opposition do what it can to keep the Government on its toes. Frankly we'd like to see it a little more aggressive than it has shown itself to be. It may be its last chance before that election the Pre- mier says he isn’t thinking about, but which .could be right around the corner just the same.

I would like, however, to make a couple of suggestions.

There are s0 many places Marks about ARDA he referred | which need paint and there are also so many disbanded farm homes and broken down barns which should be cleared away or burned down.
