Most of the election recrim-
inations are over by now, but
a few editors are still catch-
ing it from readers who feel
that the local paper was one-
sided in its coverage, or did
not print the whole truth. .Few
of these complaints are from
winning candidates or their sup-
porters.
This has always tickled me
the fellow who demands that the.
Paper print the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth.
What he means, of course, is the
truth as he sees it, Or the truth
about somebody else. Most
newspapers print the truth, but
show me one that prints the
whole truth, and be the first
to donate''toward a statue for
its editor. Or a tombstone.
Perhaps it would be a good
thing if newspapers did print
the whole truth, about every-
thing. It would certainly put
some life into the obituary col-
umns. But in the first place, a
lot of people would suffer where
it hurts most—in their vanity.
In the second place the editor
would be so busy facing actions
for slander and libel that, even
if he won them all, he wouldn't
have time for anything else.
The truth is a fine thing,
It's like potatoes, one of the

CHURCH NE
. ................
Jos. P. Whalen
Don't expect those ingred-
ients of any good column--unity
and coherence--this week,
Since last November, I've
been needling everybody who
bored me by talking about what
a dreadful dose of flu he had.
"Step babying yourself," I de-
rided, "It's all in your mind.
You'e getting too much rest.
You're not boozing enough to
kill the bugs. You just want a
day off." And so on. So " it
couldn't happen to a nicer chap,
but what throws 'me is thatihad
to wait until the Easter holi-
days to catch it.
Something that gives me a
big pain in the arm is the
advice you get from doctors
when the flu sneaks up and
pounces. "A couple of days
in bed is the best cure,"
Who in the world can take
a couple of days in bed in this
crazy age? A farmer, with the
seeding to be done? A fisher-
man, with the ice just nicely
out of the lake? A contractor,
with his first job in four months,
and a rush one?
Ask any mother of young
children how many days she
spent in bed last time she had
the flu. The only time most
women ever spend a few days
in bed is when they are com-
pounding their confusion by
bringing another little stranger
into the world.
Enough of that. I still say it
served me right. However, I
made it to church on Easter
weekend, before succumbing,
and was delighted to renew
acquaintances with so many old
friends I hadn't seen since last
Easter, They should charge ad-
mission, and a good stiff one,
for those bums who turn up at
church once a year, on Easter
Sunday, stuffed full of hot-cross
buns and holiness.
I did overhear a remark that
day which rather refreshed my
sombre spirit. As we were
coming out of church, a little
fellow ahead of us, clutching
his mother's hand, piped, loud
and clear, "Does Jesus have a
second name, Mum?" His mum,
looking around proudly to make
sure everybody noticed how cute
the kid was, answered brightly,
"Yes, dear. It's Jesus Christ."
The little guy pondered this, and
shrilled, "I bet I know what
God's second name is." His
the girls and boys of grades 2
and 3 made a big asbestos bunny
with a tin can for a tummy. A
sign beside him read:
"Our Funny Bunny
Eats only money,
Please feed him and help
the Bunny Bundle."
He was fed $13.07!
The Junior Red Cross in Mrs.
Arenthal's Room 4 (grades 3
and 4) held a candy sale for
the juniors and a comic sale
for the seniors. They raised
a total of $8.00 in this manner.
In Room 5, a total of $40
was raised by the sale of recipe
books. Mr. Beer's grade 5 and 6
pupils brought in their favourite
recipes. These were typed on
stencils and made into very at-
tractive recipe booklets which
sold for 25e each.
Room 6, grades 6 and '7, held
an auction of comic books. Mr.
O'Neil was auctioneer, bringing
in a total of $5.00.
Besides donations made at
the school a number of Lucan
children sent individual dona-
tions and were thrilled to hear
their names mentioned on CFP L,
radio.

Parents of Lucan are justly
proud of the effort made by
public school children in sup-

A total of $76.90 was sent to

unique idea by which the money
was raised,
In Room 1, Mrs. Corbett's
kindergarteners donated $5.75.
The children placed their do-

the teacher's desk.
In Room 3, Mrs. Cobleigh

Holland missed the program
