Africa,'and especially West Africa

‘with ‘its: fine prime . minister, - Dr.
Nkrumah, takes its place in the
British Commonwealth -as one of its
‘latest members. It must be.a mar-

a recent copy of .a west country

of such. a distinguished man as Gil-

INCREDIBLE a

To us, in’ this day’-and age, it
seems almost incredible that: it ‘was
only in 1807)that the’ slave trade
was ‘abolished in. the British Em-
pire... That Christian peoples,. think-
ing in terms of the Old Testament,
could believe that the Almighty had
created black labor especially for

That. in 1850, there. were some
3,000,000-odd - slaves’ in. the ‘States;
and in’1838, when: emancipation of
all slaves in the British Empire. {ook

which. the English parliament..voted

BENEFACTOR

The name. Granville Sharp has an
‘unusual interest in connection with
slavery, for it was_one of Chief Jus-
tice Granville “Sharp's, “ancestors
{ who’ brought to light: the case of the
‘negro James Somersett,

This ‘was a heathen negro, made
a: slavein Africa, and’ carried: to
Virginia, -and-from-there brought :to
England’ by his. master..

in later years, Dr. Edward B. Shaw.
said ‘in: the current Journal ofthe

Canada. ,
The. best time for a person to
have mumps: is during. childhood,
when. the possible complications
are not very severe. In_ adulthood,
mumps canbe followed by ‘serious
--and. sometimes lasting—complica-
tions. ;

In order, to ‘prevent ‘the. possibility
of severe adult: infections. it-.might
be desirable.to deliberately expose
a child to the disease, thus ensur-

ing lifelong immunity, Dre Shaw
said. ;
- However, ‘this introduces the po-

tential ‘risk’ of _secondarily® exposing
adults. who may have — the illness
with greater “severity ‘and some-
‘times permanent damage.
