DOUBLE
VICTORY
The
Federal
member
for
West
Kootenay
is
W.
K.
Esling.
Ostensibly
he
is
a
Conservative,
but
his
political
supporters
are
not
confined
to
that
party.
Died

the

Conservatives,
enthusiastic
C.C.P.
supporters,
Labor
Progressives
and
Independents
are
as
keen
in
their
support
of
Billy
Esling
as
any
Liberal.
It
is
not
the
Liberal
party
that
returns
Esling
time
after
time,
it
is
the
unofficial
Esling
party.
Political
political
differences
are
forgotten
in

pro-
are
without
number.
That
spirit
of
common
purpose
should
be
the
objective
of
all
communities
from
here
to
the
Alberta
boundary.
When
McBride,
Prince
George,
Vander-hoof,
the
Lakes
country,
Smithers,
the
Hazeltons,
Terrace
and
intervening
points
seek
something
for
their
districts
we
in
Prince
Rupert
should
consider
its
merits.
If
that
something,
be
it
road,
provincial
worthy
of
support,
then
Prince
Rupert
should
hasten
to
support
it.
Let
the
attitude
be:
If
Terrace
needs
it
and
should
have
it,
then
Prince
Rupert
wants
them
to
have
it.
That
which
helps
even
the
smallest
of
the
communities
in
Central

helps
the
entire
country
in
some
degree.
As
the
country
east
of
here
prospers,
so

At
every
opportunity
let's
champion
their
jiause
and
thereby
our

PREVENTATIVE
MEDICINE
Superstition
with
which
vaccination
has
loner
been
regarded
by
many
and
strong
opposition
to
immunization
efforts
are
fast
diminishine
in
Canada,
but
thejiight
against
'
communicable
disease
is
far
from
won
-
In
many
sections
of
the
country
where
opposition
to
preventative
medicine
has-
eased,
deadly
apathy
has
moved
in.
September
10
to
16
will
be
annual
National
Immunization
Week,
sponsored
by
the
Health
League
of
Canada.
It
is
intended
to
direct
attention
of
parents
to
the
dangers
of
preventable
communicable
diseases
such
as
whooping
cough,
diphtheria,
scarlet
fever
and
smallpox,
which
yearly
take
a
toll
of
hun-drers
of
young
Canadian
lives.
When
we
wish
a
house
built
we
go
to
the
men
who
specialize
in
house
construction
and
abide
by
their
judgment.
We
do
not
hesitate
in
taking
the
word
of
the
electrical
engineers
or
acting
on
the
vice
of
our
lawyers.
We
know
they
are
trained
in
their
lines
and,
if
conscientious
and
scrupulous,
will
act
in
our
best
interests.
Our
doctors
are
specialists
in
health.
They
strongly
advocate
vaccination
rnd
inoculation.
Then
why
should
the
public
hesitate?
Surely
they
should
follow
the
advice
of
trained
men
on
matters
concerning
the
health
and
lives
of
their
children
and
loved
ones.
