PRIZES PRESENTED TO CONTEST WINNERS Shown above is a group caught by the Palace theatre by Mayor Davison to prize Intyre, Alberta sales manager, Kelly son, Mrs. W. Murphy, manageress Red Margaret Seigner, grand prize winner; Malcolm Cook, winner of the provincial What the Doctor (Says- By Logan Ciendening, M. D.

MAY HARM INTESTINES is perhaps perfectly, natural for people to about the health of their large intestines, They know that it periodically evacuates very noxious material. And they assume quite properly, that this noxious material is contained in the colon for long periods before it is evacuated. And then they assume, quite. improperly, that it must do a great deal of harm there. And, finally, they come to conclusion which is positively dangerous, that they ought to try their own large intestines entirely free from this material.

Nature Knows Best On every side there can be found something to confirm this point of view. Here is an article in the magazines about "Intestine Sewerage." The person in the frame of mind described beging to think of himself as merely a sewer. That does not add to his happiness. Here is the picture of a woman with head bowed in hands and "Are you tired all the time?" underneath and you know what is the matter with her, all right. Her sewer is clogged.

Well, now, did it ever occur to you that Nature knows her business pretty well? She made the trees and the flowers and the birds and the tides and the stars, and one can guess that she did not make such an awful mistake about your intestines. The fact is that there is almost no absorption of noxious material from the colon into the blood stream. It may be comforting to people who are colon-minded to read the words of one of the best known specialists in stomach and bowel disorders before the section on digestive diseases of the American Medical association: "It might be said that the natural condition of the colon is to be more or less full, and any attempt to keep it empty by strong laxatives or large enemas or flushings is based on a misconception of the function of the colon and will be likely to cause harm. The colon should have the same consideration and care in relation to disease as any of the other viscera, and should not receive any more abuse -than any other organ when there seems to be a dysfunction." Dangerous Practices The habit now widespread, which many people get into, of regular and frequent colonio irrigations (internal baths) which attempt to flush out every particle of the contents of the colon, are almost invariably harmful. They cause the to become abnormally irritable, the patient to become weak and to have digestive disturbances.

that get worse rather than better under the repeated irrigations. Then the irrigations are made more drastic and the result is a real intestinal invalid indeed. This does not mean that there are no diseases in which colon irrigations are beneficial. They are beneficial in certain cases of mucous colitis and ulcerative colitis. If properly given in such cases- -with a soft, short tube, and gently and slowly- they have a distinct place in treatment.

But for a person in ordinary health who decides he needs a "thorough cleaning out." they are more likely to do harm than good. FESTIVAL ASSOCIATION TO MEET WEDNESDAY Alberta Musical Festival Association will meet in the Board of Trade rooms at 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday when Mrs. W. G.

At all Christian Science churches next Sunday, the subject of the Lesson-Sermon will be "Truth." The following is one of the Scriptural quotations contained in the Lesson-Sermon: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth" (John 1:1, 14). One of the correlative passages from "Science and Health with Key the Scripture," by Mary Baker Eddy, is as follows (page 473): "Truth, God, is not the father of error. Sin, sickness and death are to be clasified as effects of error.

Christ came to destroy the belief of sin. Christ is the ideal Truth, that comes to heal sickness and sin through Christian Science, and attributes all power to God."
