The. Top Shelf..
(By BENJAMIN BEVERIDGE)
The English philosopher, Alfred
Jules' Ayer, insists that it means
nothing to say: "That man is good
to support his mother." The fact
is the man supports his mother.
Calling his "good" because of it
merely expresses an attitude to-
wards the action.

In attempting to distinguish
between sentiment and fact, Prof.
Ayer puts his finger on what may
well be the fault in the process of
consoring literary works and mov-
ing pictures To distinguish be-
tween what is real and what is
only a view is the basic challenge
which faces everyone who seeks
to form an opinion.

There are a great many reasons
for censorship, but some of them
are as phony as a four -dollar bill.
Throughout the history of literat-
ure,
iterature, certain influential factions of
society usually minorities—have
seen fit to cen`sol• Voltaire, Bal-
zac, Sinclair Lewis, George Bern-
ard Shaw and John Steinbeck,
This was usually on moral
grounds. A Deeameron, a 14th
Century collection of racy tales,
has been on and off the suppressed
list according to the viewpoint of
the times, Havelock Ellis was
severely censored because he dar-
ed to write about sex. Yet, just
a few decades later, Dr. Kinsey
introduces his famous reports to a
public which cannot find justifica-
tion—though not lacking in desire
—to ban them.
Writers have to be very careful
not to shock the sensitivities of
prudes in high places. Many 5f
those who publicly denounced
Emile Zola's "Nana", the story of
a prostitute, read the book behind
locked doors—and enjoyed It! Dr.
Thomas Bowdler (1754-1825) even
went to the trouble of publishing
an edition of Shakespeare's works
in which he had omitted words
and expressions which "with prop-
riety, could not be real aloud in a
family." Surely Dr. Bowdler must
have had the impulse to rewrite

Men, materials..
and money
When a business lands an order or a contract,
it is likely to go to a chartered bank to arrange some
of the financing. It may need bank credit to meet
payrolls, to buy materials or to cover other
costs that arise before it is paid. -
That's why businesses both large and small can
take on many jobs they would be unable to
handle if they had to depend entirely on their own
financial resources ...And why, every day
and in every part of Canada, the chattered banks
are lending money to producers, manufacturers,
processors and other commercial customers.
Commercial loans are only one of many banking
services available at a branch of a chartered bank.
You will find it is a convenient banking

Harry.E. Ahrens
Harry E. Ahrens, 64, died sud-
denly from a heart attack on Sat-
urday, September 3, at the home
of Mrs. Thomas Koviak, Port Al-
bert,
He was a native of St. Charles,
Missouri, and had lived in Detroit
for many years, and was employ-
ed in the Hudson Motor Car pleat
until retiring.
He had spent his summers in
this district for many years, and
had operated the Sunset Trailer
Camp at Bayfield. He owns the
Trail Blazer cottage, now oc-
cupied by Mr. and Mrs. Janieson
and family. His wife, the former
Winnifred Brown, Port .Albert,
died in 1953.
He is survived by one brother
and one sister,. at St. Charles, Mo.
his Bible, since all these bawdy
plots are taken from it.
Books are banned for other
things than sex however. 'Alice
in Wonderland", written by a
clergyman, was once banned in
China because Dodgson had Inde
animals talk in -the story. Hem-
mingway's "Farewell to Arms"
was censored in Italy because the
author was too frank.
The criterion of censorship
seems to be the extent to which
authors tell the truth as they see
it. But truth is not always akin
to flattery, and, therefore, it is
not always popular. Nobody wants
to protect lascivious books—filth
for its own sake—but I think it
will be difficult to deny for any
length of time the principle that
it is better to tolerate some trashy
literature than to curb the imag-
inations of all sincere writers,
* *
It must be a foible of human
nature for individuals to say: "I
don't like that movie. Let's ban
it." Because a great many people
put themselves in the position of
Solomon, without having Solom-
on's wisdom with which to pass
judgment. New Brunswick has
asked for three categories of film
censorship, for three age groups.
Where is there a Solomon to say
this movie is good for 12 year olds
but not good for children a year
younger?
When I hear proposals like this
I think of the many children who
occupy seats for movies labelled
"Adult Entertainment Only And
I wonder why we go on fooling
ourselves into thinking that such
feeble gestures of restriction are
doing any good, except, perhaps,
to add further suggestion to the
film's promotion,
Many American theatre operat-
ors will not book films marked
'X" or "No Admission Under 16".
But this is not due to any superior
ense of morality, The family
rade is important in the U.S., and
film houses won't eater to shows
hat divide the audience,
I realize that I have slipped into
discussion of film censorship
without a reasonable transition
om bawled books. But let's look
t how they handle censorship in
England.
Europeans are more broadmind-
d than we axe in 'America, The
Folies-Berpere is the pride and
oy of Paris, and although almost
every visitor to the French capital
oes there at least once, none
ould be supercilious enough to
complain about the naked show
ris they see there. Perhaps it
because the girls are only iden-
real to the other attractions of
the famous cafe.

The British Board of Film Cen-
rs tries to "exclude from public
exhibitionanything likely to impair`
he moral standards of the public".
e censors have' no statutory
pow
and only make recomm-
dations. The movie industry
s the censors, but has no con-
rol over their activities.
Although no cinema in Britain

There's no doubt about it — no one wants a steady
diet of just bread and water.
But — if you're feeding straight grain alone, you're
asking your livestock to live and thrive on "bread and
water". And it's been proved many times that you
can't get the results from grain alone that you get
by feeding a. balanced ration.
If you have your own grain, make it go farther and
return you a greater profit by balancing it with SHUR-
Gain Concentrates to add the protein, vitamins and
minerals it lacks. Or, if you need complete feeds,
SHUR-GAIN Complete Feeds are profit -makers, too,
