TIRED
OF
WAITING
.
The
people
of
the
Peace
River
country
are
tired
of
wait
ing
for
gravelled
highways
and
improvements
including
a
-western
rail
outlet
to
the
coast
and
are
asking
that
they
be
cut
off
from
the
rest
of
Alberta
which
is
waiting
patiently
for
.a
mythical
$25
a
month
dole.
We
all
become
impatient.'
'at
the
delays
in
getting
those
public
services
which
we
think
are
our
due.
And
on
the
other
hand
we
find
another
Jess
articulate
section
of
the
cbimtry
impatient
at
the
governments
for'
spending
so
much
money
.on
these
works
and
increasing
the
taxes
so
that
jt
is
almost
impossible
for
the
taxpayers
to
pay
them.
Mr.
Aberhart
and
his
ministers
have
a
hard
time
in
Alberta
trying
to
satisfy
the
people,
large
numbers
of
whom
are
illiterate
or
educated
only
in
a
foreign
language.
He
probably
has
not
remembered
that
there
is
such
a
section
as
the
Peace
River
country.
Now
it
will
be
brought
forcibly
to
his"
attention
and
an
attempt
will
be
made,
doubtless,
to
xiarry
out
some
of
the
pre-election
promises.
PRESIDENTIAL
CAMPAIGN
While
many
things
may
happen
between
now
and
the
end
of
the
presidential
campaign
in
the
United
States,
there
seems
every
likelihood
that
President
Roosevelt
will
get
his
second
term
and
that
the
present
trade
relations
with
our
southern
neighbors
will
continue
for
another
four
years
from
next
spring
at
the
least.
In
the
meantime
business
is
retarded
by
the
rather
unsettled
condition.
While
it
is
necessary
to
our
democratic
system
that
an
opportunity
be
given
to
make
changes
periodically,
this
is
one
place
where
the
dictator
has
a
distinct
advantage
over
the
democracy.
The
great
demos
is
fickle,
easily
swayed
and
often
seeming
to
have
little
brains.
WAR
STILL
GOING
ON
Evidently,
judging
by
the
despatches,
the
war
in
Ethiopia
is
still
going
on
and
Italy
has
anything
but,
a
sinecure
in
bringing
into,
subjection
a
hostile
people
in
a
wild
.country,
especially
during
the
rainy
season
when
travel
is
practically
impracticable
for
.a
white
person.
It
is
possible
that
Ethiopia
jnay
prove
to
be
a
thorn
in
Mussolini's
side.

More
romance
can
be
found
around
the
seemingly
simple
con
sents
,pf
an
ordinary
salt
.cellar
than
any
average
person
has
ui
a
lifetime.
The
common
substance
of
salt
offers
a
field
for
research
which
would
occupy
more
.than
.the
entire
lifetime
of
a
student
or
scientist.
So
declared
Dr.
11.
N.
Brocklesby
of
the
scientific
staff
of
the
.Prince

Experimental
Station
in
an

,to
the
Pince
Rupert

yesterday
.on
(the
sublet
,of,
Salt.
The
discourse
proved
4one
of
.much
interest.
Past
President
S.
J.
Jabour
was
in
the
chair
in
the
I
absence
from
the
city
of
the
president,
Dr.
R.
,G.
.Larage,
on
an
angling
expedition.
Salt
had
not
always
been
as
!
abundant
and
cheap
as
It
is
today.
Dr.
Brocklesby
declared.
It
walj
required
to
maintain
all
life
and
the
struggle
for
Its
possession
had
marked
alt
history.
It
had
beer
the
cause
of
wars
and
revolutions'
The
dally
salt
requirement
of
an
ordinary
adult
was;
.tw6-.th.lrds
of
an
ounce.
Primitive

salt
in
.his
uncooked
food
When
man
started
;to
cook
his
food,
however,
it
became
necessary
to
add
salt.
The
early
history,
of
almost
oil
races
abounded
with
references
to
salt.
In
China
salt
.had
.once
,been
considered
next
to
gold
In
value
and
in
the
thirteenth
century
pieces
of
salt
had
been
used
as
money
at
a
ratio
of
two
to
one
with
gold.
Today
in
the
South
Seas
and
remote
parts
of
Africa.
salt
was
still
used
as
a
medium
,of
exchange.
Roman
legionaries
had
been
paid
in
part
in
salt
and
thus
came
the
origin
of
the
word
salary.
Due
to
the
need
for
salt,
kings:
and
rulers
had
found
it
an
excellent
commodity
to
tax
and
bootleg
manfacture
ot
salt
had
been
one
of
.the
earliest
of
Illicit
trades.
Abuse
of
the
salt
tax
had
been
one
pf
the
contributing
causes
to
thr
French
.Revolution.
Even
in
recent
years
Gandhi
and
his
followers
had
rebelled
In
In-flla
against
the
salt
tax.
It
was
claimed
that
the
great
city
pf
Lpndon
.owed
its
birth
tu
the
salt
trade
hetween
Worcestershire
and
the
.Continent.

The

Although
salt
was
of
great
value
as
a
commodity,
its
.chief
value
was
as
a.
chemical.
There
