Guest Editorial
NO OPTION
This insistence that an employer see that employees’ income tax is paid is a new kind of slavery. If the employer does not make the pay- ment within fifteen days of the end of each month he is subject to a fine. Now the employer has not been paid to make the deductions nor to keep the books on the ductions, yet the onus is on
collect and remit the taxes, This simplifies matters for the income tax people but the obligation to pay
income taxes is an obligation of the individual and the income tax de- partment ought to assume its re- sponsibility of collecting from in- dividuals,
People profess to deride the old days of slavery but this income tax job which is thrust upon the em- ployer is a new kind of slavery. However, slaves were not fined in the old days since they were paid nothing, though they might be dis- ciplined with whip or irons for not doing what they were ordered to do, It is possible that they could have, if they had money, bought themselves off. The present-day employer has no option in the mat- ter,
Fifteen days after the end of each month is too short a time for the average small employer. He usu- ally does his own books and if he is away two or three weeks or a month on holiday or business there is usually no one to do the end-of- theemonth books and he has to do them when he comes back. This fine (minimum $10) after fifteen | days has worked a considerable | hardship on a number of smal) em- | ployers; for those with a staff of | bookkeepers all the details can be kept up to date through holidays or | absences, More-over, an interest rate of 10 per cent on the unpaid balance is just plain usury.
This is one reason why we are distrustful of a sales tax. Besides the nuisance value to the customer , and the clerks, the employer is go- ing to be stuck with the job of re- mitting the tax and this will add One more job, The employer has more than enough of these chores. It is not surprising that the genera- tion growing up prefers to take a salaried job rather than strike out in business for itself. |

On Tuesday, Jan. 29, the two 3.S.A. teams came to Didsbury for a Gouble-header in basketball.
Our undefeated girls were victor- fous once again. Burgess, Qilirie and Prevost made the baskets to give us a lcad of 23-20. (We had a little help though, as one O8S.A. girl made a basket — 2 points — for us by mistake.)
The Olds points were made by Dewitt, Newman, Christensen and Fitzgerald.
Both teams played a fast and brilliant game but our champs were just too good for the opposi- tion.
However, our boys were defeated. No further comment. (If you're

The hail suppression plan we've been shootin’ off about for so many months is all settled again insofar as this immediate area is concerned. The ‘smokers’ are scheduled to go into action on June 25 and will be available for service until September 30, under the ex- isting contract. The area to be covered is larger than last year and last-minute word tells us that there will be a plebiscite in another part of the municipality be-| fore the hail clouds move our way this year.

Of course, man is always in need of the diretting force and steadying power of large conceptions and great truths, Man also needs that which will keep him from taking the less harmful transgressions of every day life so seriously that they destroy his Spirit of buoyancy. True humour is the coming to the surface of that deep-seated be- lief that joy exists at the heart of
this universe. Humour, like good | music can lift the mind and heart |
above the cold gray days and dull moments to where it can share that joy. The New Ttestament begins With the joyous song of happy Angels and closes with the Halle- lujah chorus. He who made man made laughter. Laughter lifts life to where the discomforts, disap- pointinents and difficulties of time cannot get us down. The world about us is often in a mess. The goals we have striven for often con- tinue to elude us. Yet laughter s possible so long as faith is a living virtue. Let us recall here the cheery message that echoed on the sandy shores of old Galilee. The burdens of mankind we'ghed upon Him, yet He shared the joy of heaven, as He said: “Be of good cheer I have overcome the worid.” Of course, laughter and humouw ave not the same but they are very close companions.
Some few years ago a budding artist went to the black-board in an old school house. He drew two pictures. One picture was of a man coughing and choking because he
had swallowed a tiny fly. The other |
picture was of another man hold- ing a full grown camel in the air with one hand, while he wag try- ing to get the animal's head in his mouth by the help of the other. Of course, everybody in the room laughed, Those pictures were fun- ny.
At a time when it was wrong to play a piano on the Lord's day it was not thought wrong to make children work sixteen hours at a time in a coal mine. Yes, and peo- ple have prayed, asking for help to capture other people, only to sell
those captured into slavery. Peo- ple have been known to be very careful about little issues, when
they in general have forgotten to

You guessed it, the ghosts— and have you ever seen a ghost pay admission to any encounter.

By HOWARD J. FULCHER
| FUNERAL DIRECTORS We all know the value of keeping
and accounts in farm op- erations, Many companies and in- stitutions make farm record available to farmers; these vary somewhat, some quite simple, while others ate more complicated. They all are of value to the individual farmer only if he uses them.
Many of you remember Mr. C. C. Robinson who worked from office for a period of time. He has written the following on farm rec- ords and accounts, and I am pass- ing it on to you in its entirety.
“The first of the year is a good time to think of setting up @ sys- tem of records and accounts, Some say why should a farmer bother with records or accounts? Others say they are not making enough money to need an account book to keep a record of it. To these peo- ple I would say: you are the very persons who should be thinking about farm records to find out where the leaks are in your farm float,
Farming is a business and good businessmen keep records and ac-
{counts of their business operations.
High capital values of land, im-
provements and equipment, as well | as complex operation costs and fi-,; | nancing,
emphasize the import- ance of good business management. An adequate set of recorde and ac- counts of all business transactions will serve many useful purposes.
A very good farm account book should contain three sections: First an inventory, a listing of all the farm property with estimated dol- lar values, The inventory will serve as a ready reference as to the value of the individual items and ig need- ed to compute the total capitaliza- tion, to prepare a financial state- ment and to calculate net worth. Secondly, it should have a record of expenses and receipts. This forms an accurate reference of all farm business transactions. And thirdly, a section for summarizing and an- alysing the farm business &t the | end of the year. This section can | be used for calculating total in- | vestment, total revenue, deprecia- | tion, net income and various other | summaries that may be desired.
This information is not only use- | ful for filing an income tax return but, the most valuable purpose of it | should be in showing you where the | weak links are in your farming op- | erations and helping you to plan your operations in the future to/| avoid the mistakes of the past.”

loaf, The price of a 20-ounce loaf in the cities is now 19 cents in the store and 20 cents delivered. In- creasing costs of ingredients, par- ticularly sugar, and higher wage rates were given by bakers ag the reason for the boost.
It should be clear to all that wheat cost did not play any part in increase. Though bread is basically a wheat product, the cost of the wheat going into a loaf does not have much effect on the price the consumer pays. Even if the farmer gave his wheat away bread would still cost over 15 cents a loaf.
Since early 1949 the price of bread has gone up from 12 cents to 19 cents a loaf, The price of wheat to the producer has actually gone down, although the cost of wheat to the miller ig slightly higher since in 1949 the government was bonusing bread consumers to the extent of 46's cents a bushel on wheat con- sumed in Canada,

WHEN THE PAYCHECKS STOP coming in regularly, there is concern in the household. Old Man Winter has in the past brought about conditions that have resulted in scarcity of pay checks for many. He's being thwarted more often these winter days as result of co-operative efforts between private con- cerns, the federal employment authori- ties and the provincial government through its Department of Industries and Labour. The joint efforts of these groups, who started a “Do It Now" campaign, has resulted in a much higher level of continued winter employment.
AND SPEAKING OF PAYCHECK LACK, it often happens thet adversity hits a family that brings about income and other lacks. It may be lack of money, or lack of responsibility, lack of mutual affection, any one of many possible lacks. The result is sometimes broken home, and cause of a bitter memory imbedded in a child’s mind, that will stay there for life. It’s always the children who suffer most.
WHEN THINGS BECOME DIFFICULT the Department of Public Welfare can always help the Municipality to step in and care for the material needs of the kiddies. It can’t replace the love and affection that exists between members of every family. So the efforts of this branch of the department, with the co- operation of municipal authorities, are today dirccted to maintenance of family units wherever possible. This is achieved by soliciting the sympathetic help of neighbors and community at large to help the stricken family help itself back up to a level of social and economic solid- arity. There is, where necessary, financial help available by nicans of grants to the
local authorities t'
_'\ the department,
But more often than not its the help of neighborly interest that is needed. Know anyone you can help to maintain his family as a family?
We'll be seeing you again next week,

Leduc No. 1
Canada’s most famous oi] well will celebrate its 10th birthday next week amidst evidence that some of its Most exciting results are still to come
Representatives of industry and government will meet in Edmonton on February 13 to mark the 10th anniversary of the discovery of Im- perial Leduc No. 1 — the famous well which sparked developments that have moved oil from a minor role to Canada’s number one min- eral,
While the decade's achievements in oi] wells. pipe lines, and new re- finery construction add up to an imposing list, the mood of oj] men on the eve of the celebration was plainly, “You ain’t seen nuthin’ yet.”
The men in the producing side of the oi] business say that in the next quarter century they expect to dis- cover from seven to ten times as much oj] as they now have in re- serve.
And the industry's economists say | that the petroleum outlook is going | to mean more jobs, bigger plants, | larger supplies of products and a greater variety of them. Instead of consuming one-and-a-half gallons of oi] products as he does today, | the average Canadian will probably | be consuming two-and-a-half of | these gallons a day in 1980.
Much of the present and future | stature of the Canadian oi] indus- try can be traced back to Imperial | Oil's discovery well at Leduc; the} wel} that changed the story of Western Canada 01] exploration from one of persistent discourage- ment to vigorous enterprise. Be- fore the Leduc discovery, Imperial alone had drilled 133 wells in the Canadian west and all were dry. After Leduc, the oi] producing in- dustry moved into high gear, ach- jeving the following imposing re- sults
In 1946 Canada imported more than 90 per cent of the oil she needed. Today Canadian oi) wells are producing 65 per cent, on bal- ance. of the nation's oi] needs, and these needs have tripled in the meantime
The number of producing welbs in Western Canada increased during the decade from 393 to about 10,000. Their output has increased froin about 20,000 barrels daily in 1946 to an estimated 540,000 barrels daily now
Canada's oi] pipe line system has grown from 419 miles in 1946 to some 5,700 miles today. Included are two great arteries pumping the new Canadian crude to market — Interprovincial, which is the world's longest crude oi] trunk line, run- ning 1,772 miles from Edmonton to Sarnia; and Trans Mountain, which was pushed through tough terrain to the Pacific coast.
Edmonton, Calgary and _ other prairie centres have seen rapid pop-

ulation growth and more prosper- ous times as new busineses came in to serve the oil producers.
Provincial revenues in Western Canada have been increased by payments for land acquisition and royalties
The oi) industry's total invest- ment since Leduc has now reached almost $4 billions, and new Invest- ments are being made today at a rate of more than $1,500,00 a day. Between now and 1980, oi] men ex- pect to spend about $20 billions to provide facilities for finding, pro-

Letter To The Editor |M.V.B.C. NEWS
Editor The Pioneer, Didsbury, Alberta, Dear Sir:
It seems as tho’ everyone is try- ing to give some expert advice to our hockey team these days. Too bad the season is nearly over, for a little “coaching from the audience” would have seemed more appropri- ate two months ago. The team in question {s the so-called Ramblers. A very good description, for I have seldom had the opportunity to see a group such as this “ramble” around on skates in such a state of confusion,
Now, I don’t mean they don't know what they're doing out on the ice — I guess it’s just the way the boys go about doing it that makes it look so difficult for them. 12 unve heard a lot of “after the gatie”’ talk about whether or not
i’sburyites should admit they .vCa so much &s recognize the boys on the hockey team. This should ot be too much of a problem, for after the boys lose a game you sel- dom see any of them for a day or so anyway. One or two may alip ‘fia @ coffee shop for some re- | fre hment after the game but they | leave immediately, and very qulet- lity. One very dejected looking fan sadiy stated: “I’ve never seen them play a good game yet.” I can’t say as I go along with that, for I have scen them play with great exhub- urance at least twice. One of the boys told me the reason for this. He said, and I quote: "I guess we were all on the ball tonight.” Well and good, but it seems to me if even half of them “were on the bali” once in awhile they could do bet:er every game,
Maybe if the Ramblers had more confidence in themselves it would hel». When they go on the ice no One expects them to so much as coine close to winning, so why bother? Perhaps if a few more citi- zens of this fair town would don their hats and gloves, motor over to the arena and give the team a little moral support, the final tally would look a little different.
It gets me to hear the “pros” playing the game al) over again while they sip their morning coffee the next day. Especially when none of them even so much as dropped in to see if the boys were playing as scheduled.
When you walk into the arena about all you'll see, as far as the crowd is concerned, is the handful of young people gathered around the stove — perhaps a half a dozen older folks talking farms by the door, I have never seen such en- thusiasm. In fact if enthusiasm was a battery they wouldn't have enough to light up a fire fly.
If no one is interested in the hockey game or the boys that bear the name of Didsbury on their sweaters, why enter a team in the league in the first place? Most of all, why go to Olds to watch a game when your own team is playing right here at home? So what if the teams aren't as good — with a little effort from the good citizens it may improve, you never know until you try. So let’s get behind the Ramblers, they've got what it takes if they feel like using it . have you?

FIVE-YEAR LICENCE PLAN FOR ALL ALBERTA DRIVERS
The Alberta government has de- cided to adopt a five-year licence for motor vehicle drivers Which will take effect this year.
This major change in the prov- inee’s Heensing system Was an- nounced on Jan, 21 by Hon. Gordon Taylor, minister of highways at a conference in Edmonton which was
attended by representatives of o1- ganizations interested in traffic safety and motor vehicle adminis- trat.on |
The five-year licence has been |
under consideration during the past |
two years and was discussed at the 1956 session of the Alberta legisla- ture,
The cost of the be $5, instead of Which it has been a driver's licence.
Mr. Taylor said the new licence will be issued from the driver's birthday. Any motorist whose birth- dey falls before March 31 will be required to purchase his fiveeyear licence when they g0 on sale in April
Persons whose birthdays fall be- tween March 31 and Dec, 31 will be able to Wait until their birthday be- fore yeneWing the driving licence. This means there can be a few months of “free” driving for many persons, as the old licence can re- main in force until the end of the year if necessary
The minister said that, eventu- ally, it is expected that every driv- er will have to undergo a driving test before his licence sanawaal every five years
Under the new system there be four different categories:
