IMPORTANCE OF IMMUNIZATION
The recent polio outbreak. in Mon-
treal emphasizesthe fact that the need' for
immunization against such ..communicable
diseases as poliomyelitis,smallpox,. diph-
theria, and whooping cough is just as, vital
as,ever, and will tend to focus special at-
tention on,. ' Immunization Week, ° which is
• sponsored by the .Health League of Can-.
ada • with the co-operation of ,• departments'
ofhealth and,education;from September 20
..to ,..
Dr.' F, 0,' Wishart, chairman' `of the
League's Immunization committee, . 'pointed
out' that poliomyelitis, in particular had.
moved from being , a disease of children,'
.into the adult area and if is , earnestly hop-
ed- that those aged .front 20 and over will
avail themselves of this protection;.. as the
• disease is :more deadly and severe in older
age groups, '•L and particularly in '.pregnant
mothers:
A quadruple , vaccine noicv combines
immunization' ., agent's,protecting' against:
polio, diphtheria, tetanus, •. and whooping
cough. Immunization against hese: ;diseases
is achieved. by, the' .single cdurse of injec-
tions.
Such diseasei as smallpox . and diph-
. theria have become' rare, ;but . there are
specific -instances. of . outbreaks that point
Up what can happen when immunization is
neglected.. Deaths from these diseases, for
which.. there has: long been a safe effective
preventive, ,are doubly tragic. • "
Immunization' Week simply 'draws at-
tention : to the year-round importance' . of
family 'protection against all such commun..
icable diseases.
The person who is afraid to admit his
mistake is making . another.
Good character is still the 'best collateral
for a loan.
'Thursday is Fair Day. May the wea-
ther . and, crowd be such as to encourage
• the Fair Board and the community :in gen-
eral to get behind• the annual show. to de-
velop it to what it can and should be
aiming at a climatical event on the cen-
tennial anniversary which is not far dis-
tant,
During• the past few .weeks The Sen.
tinel, like other. weeklies: no doubt, :has re-
ceived 'reams o. f publicity about the defici
ency payment plan as a price support
method for 'hogs.' In' fact, so much has'
been 'Written pro and con on the subject
that .we can't keep up with our reading of
it,• and "'the picture has become more .and.

PARSON PEN,
This 'week I took the blade•
off•.my power .mower.. It had
becorne dull .through the sum-.
rner's use. Not .:, only had the
'grass : dulled the ' cutting edge, •
but .the .occasional, ; stone had,
played its part. I put' it • to a •
grindstone, .and • soon. • had :an'
edge that would cut .properly., `.
When ' I was a lad .at home,
my: father often agave ; me this
admonition keep , your nose .to,
the grindstone.".. • ,Undoubtedly
there were many timeswhen
this: word was'' needed..For it is',
•easy to'tur-n aside ,froin' a task
that is • difficult or .monotonous..
As I' think back'over the ,Years,. •
I realize• how .important , it is td '-
apply oneself wloleheartedly to.
everything that a person does,
The ..disciplines. of .life may ` irk.
The •pleasure of the ,thoment fray
be inviting:'`But if goals: of ach=.
ievement are ever to be reached,
serious application of mind;
heart, soul and strength must be
made.' •
a
Strangely enough, keeping
your nose to the grindstone will
not necessarily make`. life dull.;•
For the phrase does not suggest
that life roust contain no joy or
pleasure. The truth of the mat-
ter 'is•, that the deepest joys in
life ,, belong to those vvho , find •
meaning in 'their daily work, •
There is, an unequalled sense. `of
accomplishment •that comes . to
you with the completion` of the.
taskthat may havebeen diffi
cult..
