fHat
an

situation

have
an

upon

Therefore,
it
would
be
desirable
to
clear
the
political
atmosphere
once
and
for
all.
From
the
straight
political
standpoint,
it
is
understandable
from
the

aspect
where
an
early
election
might
be
desirable.
The

has

ure
of

and
a
long
era
of
prosperity.
The
government
has
something
on
which
to
go
to
the
country.
Also
from
the
political
standpoint,
it
might
be
.
considered
desirable
that
an
early
provincial
election
be
held
so
that
the
solidarity
of
the
coalition,
whatever
its
degree
of
strength
and
cohensiveness
may
be,
would
not
lie
adversely

'BARREL
STAVES
DOWN
the
gleaming
snow
slopes
of
the
world's
winter
resorts
a
modern
generation
slides
and
glides
on
skis.
It
is
an,
exacting
sport,
an
exercise
calling
for
co-ordination,
a
pliant
strength
and
'
timing.
Practiced
by
experts
it
achieves
dazzling
'
speed,
grace
and
rhythm.
t
But
can
the
stylized
performance
of
the

j

enthusiast
produce
the
rollicking
fun
of
an
earlier
boyhood's
haphazard
descent
down
a
neigh-
borhood
snow
hill
on
barrel
staves?
Here
was
;
shown
a
native
dexterity
born
and
nurtured
in
the
:
school
of
hardy
experience.
No
instructor
taught
'
Jjae
youngster
how
to
place
his
feet,
how
to
attempt
a
turn,
how
to
preserve
a
balance.
Those
were
accomplishments
seldom
attained.
There
was
little
direction,
other
than
downward.
Grace
was
inad-vertant
and
infrequent,
and
a
successful
slide
was
more
a
miracle
than
a
triumph.
But
there
was
a
rich
reward
in
laughter
from
-himself
and
his
fellows
when
the
curved
staves
club
into
the
snow
to
throw
a
rider
into
a
drift,
or
when
the
rockered
boards
raced
out
from
under
him.
The
game
was
an
invitation
to
light-hearted
merriment,
f
b
rough
bumps
cheerfully
taken.
And
though
it
lacked
the
possibilities
of
smooth
perfection,
of
elegance
in

it
