consulted was because of his well
known opposition to such methods.
And, no doubt, there are hundreds of
other ministers and members of their
congregations, who have been placed
171 a similar position.
Two wrongs never yet have made
a right. And it is not right to say
that because a. law is being flouted
by a small majority, that that law
should be repealed, .and something
else substituted in its place.
At the same time, if the Govern-
ment is going to continue to wink at
the infractions of the gambling laws,
perhaps it would be better to legal-
ize lotteries and sweepstakes, and
bring them out into the open.
In such an event, no one would be
forced to buy a sweepstake ticket on
a hospital, which would be the thin
edge of the wedge. That, in itself,
would be a great relief to the ave-
rage man on every main street, as
well as to countless others through-
out the country.
As it is now, the church lottery
and every other kind of private lot-
tery to which we are afflicted, is
pretty much of a hold-up,; a racket,
or anything else you might like to
call it, The Government lottery
might, at least, be an improvementin
that respect.
However, it is the Federal Govern-
ment that holds the trump cards, and
before the people in. the Province try
to make an issue out of it, it might
be well to wait and see what the Fed-
eral Government is going to do about
it. --Huron Expositor.
