evidently,
going
all
out
in
making
facilities
available
for
the
activities
of
the
'teen-agers
of
Prince
Rupert
and
it
is
now
up
to
the
latter
to
avail
themselves
accordingly.
:
The
'teen-agers
as
an
organization,
are
getting
a
better
start
in
P.rince
Rupert
than
have
those
in
the
most
of
other
places
where
finding
of
suitable
premises
has
presented
difficulties
which
taxed
their
enthusiasm,
effort
and
ingenuity.
Here
there
is
none
of
that.
In
fact
the
'teen-agers
arc
being
handed
a
silver
platter
in
some
ways
and
we
shall
liow
see
if
they
are
appreciative
and
capable
of
making
the
fullest
use
of
the
splendid
opportunity
for
organization,
i
No
longer
can
it
be
said
that
there
is
"nowhere
to
go"
and
"noth-ilif
to
do"
as
far
as
the
'teen-agers
are
concerned.
The
community
has
rjeally
done
something
for
them
and
now
it
is
for
them
to
go
the
rest
of
the
way.
We
have
no
doubt
they
are
just
as
able
and
interested
in
doing
s;oas
are
the
'teen-agers
who
have
done
so
much
for
themselves
in
other
places.
Poor
Speller's
Lament
Did
you
know
there
is
no
such
thing
as
pingpong?
The
name
is
Ping-pong.
t
To
coin
a
paraphrase:
Oh,
ng-
lish,
thy
name
is
inconsistency.
And
the
truth
of
this
statement
those
who
speak
it
seldom
realize.
To
be
correct
you
should
spell
it
flatcar,
but
flat
tire;
one-way
but
halfway;
un-qqualed
but'unequally;
holdup
.and
setup
but
make-up
and
tie-up.
'
:
There's
little
reason
although
plenty
of
rhyme
in
the
spelling
of
the
English
language.
The
worst
mischief-makers
are
those
little
fellows,
the
hyphens.
They
bob
-up
and
bob
down
in
words
just
like
gremlins
grinning
and
hiding
behind
a
board
fence,
with
utter
disregard
of
logic,
good
sense,
convenience,
and
the
40-hour
week.
Yet
they
are
just
as
much
a
part
of
the
spelling
as
ie
and
ei.
There
is
manhole,
but
man-hour;
prewar,
but
pre-eminent,
mother-of-pearl,
but
right
of
way
and
port
of
call.
Those
little
hyphens
et
al
require
more
editors
on
carefully
edited
newspapers
for
the
purpose
of
pre-'
serving
the
purity
or
'
the
status
quo
of
the
language.
.'We
are
not
demanding
an
'overhaul
of
the
ably
edited
Webster's
Dictionary
or
of
the
multifaceted
English
language
itself.
Rut,

Taxation
Stifling
Business
;
Business
can
be
hurt
by
too
heavy
taxation,
but
there
has
been
a
mark-'
?d
tendency
in
recent
years
to
tax
the
right
to
carry
on
business,
especially
in
the
corporate
form,
says
the
Royal
Bank
of
Canada
Monthly
Letter
for
April.
The
Royal
Commission
which
reported
in
1940
is
quoted
as
saying
the
complexity
of
corporation
taxation
"is
beyond
belief."
The
bank
article,
which
discusses
the
basis
and
imposition
of
income
tax,
says
in
part:
"Taxation
is
the
chief
means
by
which
a
government
obtains
funds,
and
the
tax
represents
a
compulsory
transfer
of
wealth
from
the
individual
to
society.
Wrapped
up
in
this
transfer
is
the
danger
that
imposition
of
a
tax
may
discourage
production
in
private
industry,
because
there
will
be
less
left
for
industry
to
spend
on
expansion
of
its
facilities
and
less
for
individuals
to
invest
in
productive
enterprise.
This
has
to
be
taken
into
consideration
as
governments
decide
how
much
they
should
spend,
how
much
they
should
borrow,
and
how
much
they
should
collect
in
taxes.
Taxes
are
determined
in
the
main
by
government
expenditures.
Some
are
forced,
as
in
the
case
of
war,
for
the
country's
preservation.
Others
are
incurred
by
choice,
such
as
social
security
expenditures
and
the
amounts
spent
on
public
works.
The
inclination
in
late
years
is
for
people
to
seek
satisfaction
of
.
more
and
more
of
their
wants
out
of
the
public
exchequer,
and
the
state
strives
to
meet
these
demands
out
of
increased
taxes.
.
.
.
"Since
excessive
taxation
damps
down
enterprise,
initiative
and
effort,
it
is
advisable
to
make
sure
the
income
tax
is
carefully
integrated
to
the
whole
life
of
the
country.
This
is
just
as
necessary
if
a
view
is
taken
from
the
government's
strong
box
as
from
the
office
of
a
business
executive,
because
as
a
tax
or
tariff
becomes
completely
absorbing,
by
its
very
nature
it
ceases
to
produce
revenue.
Industry
is
a
living,
progressing
thing,
and
cannot
be
limited
permanently
to
profits
earned
in
a
base
period
if
it
js
to
provide
for
the
material
wants
of
the
people
and
the
pecuniary
wants
of
the
government.
It
needs
a
continual
supply
of
:new
capital,
.and
over-taxation
of
individuals
or
corporations
will
kill
the
goose
that
lays
the
golden
eggs.
This
seems
obvious,
but
legislators
and
factions
are
often
short-sighted
as
to.
the
ultimate
consequences
of
legislation.
All
idealistic
visions
to
the
contrary
notwithstanding,
the
foundation
of
productive
enterprise
is
laid
through
energy,
skill,
thrift
and
expansion,
and
care
must
be
taken
not
to
paralyze
these
virtues
through
indiscreet
taxation.
"To
make
the
income
tax
consistent
with
justice
and
good
sense,
it
should
neither
add
to
the
hardships
of
those
in
the
lower
brackets
nor
detract
from
the
achievements
of
those
in
the
upper
range.
Governments
should
be
prepared
to
answer
criticism
of
taxes
of
all
kinds
by
pointing
to
necessary
things
done
for
the
good
of
all
society.
Otherwise,
they
may
find
a
lesson
in
an
episode
from
Greek
history:
When
Themistocles
went
to

ros

money,
he
warned
that

also,

They
