Jflic-reporrirf-the annual meeting of the Charlottetown Driving Park and Provincial hhibition Associa- tion. published in yesterday's Guar- dlan. will have been read within- tcrest and appreciation by our peo- ple generally. Everyone knows that the i928 Provincial Brblbition was a great success. the greatest in the history of exhibitions here. and the report of the directors confirms this widespread opinion. There were difficulties in the way at the outset. but the shrewd business sense of thc management overcame these and made the exhibition the splendid success it was.

INCOME raxras

FTER a reduction oi ten per cent in the income tax it is in- teresting to note that thc revenue derived from this source has actual- ly‘ increased. Statistics issued from the Department of National Reven- ue reveal the fact that income tax collections, during the first nine months» of thecurrent fiscal year. which ends on March Zllst next. ex- ceed the revenue from this source

financial year. The exact figures. as officially authenticated at Ottawa. are as follows: For the past nine months, $56,578,496; for the fiscal year, 1926-27, 356571.047. Revenue has thus increased notwithstanding the ton per cent. reduction in the personal tax ‘which was provided for in the Hon.. Mr. Robb's last budget, and the experience. corres- ponds with the results the Minister of Finance enjoyed last year. fol- } lowing his initial ten per cent. cut ' in the income tax on individuals. The receipts for the fiscal year fol- ‘ lowing the original tcn per cent. con- cession‘ were, nearly nine million dollars higher than the total sum of ‘sirssesoo collected during thc pre- ceding twelve months.

increasoth," says an old proverb. This evidently has been veiiied in the nlaticr of income tax levy. All will hail ‘with gratitude any reduc- tion in taxation in any iorin. and there are other forms oi taxation which would bear a reduction. The sales tax. for instance.‘ could not only be decreased but abolished. The two-cent drop-letter postage could he reduced by fifty per cant and still leave a profitable margin. The income tax will stand a still greater reduction. And while this ' would be pleasing to the general

Jlitioian. To the man on the street. ' however. the increase intbe total revenue simply means an increueof taxatioifsomswhere. If ‘the above quoiadnguresarecoriectthorev- 'enue frominoometalhalmoiiin- creueitandthoonlywayinwhlcb it could be increased irby some- bodvrnvinamol-oiaoomoiaii.

"By what strange art." he asks. almost in despair. "are we to worm our way into those strange spirits. those even stranger bodies?

You ‘will remember very distinctly astho dentist bored away at V0111‘ tooth. getting gradually down low about the "nerve." that you felt that

_ lnioiar as that tooth was concerned

there would be-no more trouble 0M6 that "nerve" was removed.

And this was the general belief until the discovery of the X my. which as you know shows up the 100i- oi the tooth and the surrounding tissue. It was thus learned that d65- pite the removal of the nerve which really means nerve. blood. and lymph vessels; that an abscess often formed at the root of these “devltalized" teeth as they are called. and this ab- scess could cause much more ser- ious trouble than just ln the sur- rounding tissue.

Dental rmearch men, notably D!‘- Wmton Price of Cleveland, have done a; great deal of work along this lne. '

Cultures weremade from these ab- sczmcs and tissue surrounding them. and organisms were grown there from which then injected into small ani- mals caused clisaase.

For u considerable time it was thought that if a root canal in i1 tooth were filled or almost complete- ly filled. and there was no abscess at thc root, that that particular tooth was doing no harm to the 110(1)’. 111m should not be removed.

However these research men, push- ing their investigations further, were able to grow organisms from the teeth that had the nerves removed, but showed no abscess by the X ray.

Even these organisms were able w produce disease in animals.

What does this mean to you?

That the old idea You and I had. that once the nerve was removed We were, not only going to be free 110111 pain but any other trouble also. is 11 mistake, and that the removal 01 the nerve simply leaves a tooth that may easily give us trouble.

As Dr. W. M. Gardner says "1411111 with healthy nerves do not abscess or VDGIXQIIIB infected."

'There is only one lesson here and that is that if you have some "filled taeth" with nerves removed. even ii‘ they are not troubling you the slight- est, you should get an x ray of them. because not matter how elpeflencfid your dentist. he needs this or other aid, to detect the condition at the root of the tooth.
