Cut Rates.

Intelligent people needing
dental attention will not be mis-
lead by ambiguous offers of
‘‘cut-rates.’’ Your local dentist
operates at a minimum of ‘over-

head’ and his fees are as low if
not lower than charges in the

city.

Furthermore the attention
is essentially personal, and the
services absolutely qualified in
conjunction with a most modsrn
mechanical equipment.

Personal attention given te
each patient. Office hours 9 to 6
(except Sunday). Evenings by
appointment. Fees moderate.

Nearlf¥ all religions contain an
element of sex. So does nearly all
vice. That is why both have their
followers.

Sex was a secret in America unti] the
advent of the bicycle. The divided
skirt and the bloomer made the seeret
impossible to keep any longer, Young
people simply had to be told, and every
body hated to tell them-except preach-
ers, newspapers, teachers and old
maids. But the young people don’t
need to be told by the oldsters any
longer. According to what we hear,
they tell each other nowadays.

We worry more about sex than about

anything’ else. The newspapers are
filled with sex stories. Practically
all scandal that is whispered around has
to do with sex. Sex is like salt; a
dash of it adds zest to anything.
" There are many laws regarding sex,
but the most important is to be dis-
creet. Discretion is the better part
of virtue.

T confess that I become tired reading
about sex. Newspapers, magazines,
plays, books and Sunday sermons shriek
sex at me. It becomes work reading
all these things, and all work and no
play makes Jack a dull boy.

Science fas been trying for years to
find a substitute for sex. Experi-
ments are being made all the time, but
the general public is strangely unin-
terested, although many husbands with
black-haired wives invariably engage
yellow-haired secretaries,

The investigation of the phenomen-
on of is one that attracts all
Freshmen at college are just
as successful in their research work as
bald-headed brokers.

Marriage is one of the results of sex.
In heayen, we are promised, there shall
be no marriage.. But you don’t have
to go far. One may observe the same
state of affairs in Greenwich -village.
The present rotten immorality of
society is attributed, by students of
social conditions, to the predominance
of sex in our affairs. "We have accord
ed sex a place out of all proportion to
its real importance. In fact we have

The question as to which sex is more

is also impossible to state which is su-

ties on either side of the district, Su-
mas Municipality on the west and
Chilliwack to the east. According to
present maps if roads were put central-
ly and by the shortest route directly
across the district they would cut the
survey lines diagonally. To accommo-
date a néw survey to the widely differ-
ent angles of the natural boundaries
which the great Vedder Canal an dthe
central drainage canal constitute might
also prove a difficult problem. Should
the main highway be mapped out in a
direct line across the old lake its an-
gle will, in all probability, be governed
by which of the two or three possible
roads in this municipality is chosen as
its continuity, due to the fact that only

Mr. Huglies, secretary to the Com-
missioners in charge of the district, and
who is in charge of the local office,
left for Victoria on Tuesday.
at present Mr. Hughes is understood
to be working on the assessment roll,
the location of the roads will have a
bearing on these calculations ad it is
likely that alternative routes of the
main highway at least will be consider-
ed during his visit to the head office.
