No home is too humble, no family too 'fioor, no criminal too wicked to be overlooked by the Salvation Army. More than all other organized Christianr welfare workâ€" does the Salvation Army follow the message of Jesus ‘Christ‘"Do unto others as you would do unto me," in their ‘selfâ€"appointed task of feeding the hungry, clothing the unâ€" fortunate and visiting the misguided4n our jails and prisons. _Their messages are simple, but one of kindness and hope and goodness that has reclaimed many a doomed life and reâ€" started seemingly hopeless failures on the paths of selfâ€"reâ€" spect and worth while lives again. No failure is without friend where the Salvation Army operates. ~Last weekâ€"oend the Salvation Army services in Timmins were conducted by ten young girl cadets from the Salvation Army College, Toronto, where the girls are in training to becowie officers in that service. <These girls are dedicating ‘their lives to service among the poor, friendless and brokenâ€" Hearted, the unfortunates who were cast out of modern social life by the pitfalls of civilization. ~ â€"~These girls are trained in kindness, sympathy and underâ€" ‘standng, to lead a life of frugality, selfâ€"sacrifice and selfâ€" (enial, with the knowledge that there are no luxurious maâ€" .terial rewards for their efforts, no fanfare or even the satisâ€" Maction that the general public is aware of their work. There are no social climbers or social lions wanted in the Salvation Army personnel, they just wouldn‘t fit. During the first world war when the grinding struggle of the Somme battle was claiming the lives of thousands of solâ€" diers, a depleted company of tired, dirty and battleâ€"worn Canadians were relieved after eight nightmarish days and nights in the front line. As the exhausted men reached the first French town they looked for a place to eat, their eyes lighting on a service club canteen set up as near the front lines as allowed. None of them had any money, and without payment the service club attendants refused to give them ieven coffec. Restrained by their tired officer to take what §1:hey needed by force, he herded the men down the shellâ€"torn istreet until they came to a salvation Army Canteen.

One story is illustrative of many. i;,Canada $2.00 Per Year. Tt isn‘t a threatening iaugh, or a derisive one, in fact it seems a rather friendly laugh, but nevertheless it is rather puzgzling, and, seemingly not having any answer, is aggravating until you‘ve lived in Timmins for some time and find yourself asking people the same question and then laughing without hardly being aware of it. The laugh just seems to bubble out after the quéstion, yet not even the old timers seem to know the answer to this:phenomenon of the north. a 1 ge® _ 0 0d Asking how you like the place is usually one of the first questions asked everywhere, asked about as casually and comâ€" monplace as questions about the wedther, but there is a big difference in the way residents of varicus cities in â€"Canada ask the question. + 16 W s NCOb "C on s . c s 2CE P Em O CCC In Halifax, a Haligonian, when he finds you are a stranger to the city, will invariably start in apologizing for Halifax until you‘re convinced it must be one Hades of a place and usually end up, not by answering the question, but by comâ€" forting the Haligonian in his misery. Toronto is much different. Nobody is ever a stranger in that city.: In fact, no one ever.asks where you tame from, how you got there, or when you intend deaving. Even the waitresses, usually a friendly lot, Aare. cold, and are as imâ€" passive and unmoving as if they had been trained by the tradâ€" itional English butler. In Halifax the.waitress usually perchs on the side of your table, gives you a friendly toothless grin and asks when your ship got in. _ _ » c ' TIMMINS, ONTARIO "Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association; Ontafjoâ€" Eh Newspaper Association Published Every Thursday by M. W. LAKE, Publisher Subscription Rates: On ‘declaring yourself a. stranger in the prairie towns youâ€"get: a broad welcoming sunâ€"tanned grin, handshake that makes your knuckles crack and an immediate invitation for a drink. And, strangely enough, if they‘re business peoâ€" ple, the drinks are usually kept in the safe, a fact that seems to make the drink much better. In Vancouver you never have to declare yourself a visitor. Grim faced natives waiting like hawks at the station spot you for a stranger as soon as you step off the train, grab you fiercely by the lapels and tell you in one fitful breath that they‘d never live down East and how do you like Vancouver. On every occasion relatives of prisoners often suffer more tkan the prisoners themselves, but little is done about it," récently declares Lieutâ€"Colonel Wallace Bunton, head of the Salvation Army‘s Prison and Police Court work. ; . Thinking the various greetings over, we like, next to the prairie, the Timmins greeting best.. Though we still haven‘t puzzled out the laugh after the question, "How Do You Like ‘Timmins?" Timmins, Ontario, 'l‘hu;sday, April 17th, 1947 THE SALVATION ARMY 5W United States: $3.00 Per Year A few months ago there came on the market a small book entitled "Econâ€" omics In One Lesson".. "Smaill", aid I say? Well it is a book of 222 pages and packed full of so much common senses and reason that almost am I tempted to wish that it could be made compulsory reading for every voler but I can‘t do that, I do not believe in compulsion. I have no desire to indoctrinate anyone with prescribed texts so all I can do is give a few quotations and recommend it highly to those who want to read as sound a bit of writing as has ssen the light of day since, a century ago, Frederic Bastiat wrote "Economic Sophisms". "FEconomics in Lesson" was written by Henry Hazlitt, formeriv on the Editorial Staff of the New York Times, a publication soâ€" outstgnding that a few days ago an editorial friend of mine referred to it as the greatost University in the Uanited States. ‘The book measures the ability of the man. It is a work well done by brilliant writer with a clear understanding of economic facts. These excracts from Chavnter 16 i}â€" lustrate the method of approach, the clarity of expression: "The economic goal or any nation, as ol any individual, is to get the greatect result from the least efMfort. Tho whole economic progress of mankind has consisted in getting more produeâ€" tion with the same labor. It is for this reason that men began puilting burdens on the backs of mules instead of on the railroad and the motor truck. It is for this that, men used their inâ€" genuity to develop a hundred thousâ€" and laborâ€"savins inventians. . this is so elementary tha one would blush to state it if it were not being conâ€" stantly forgotten by those who. coin and circulate the new slogans. Transâ€" lated into national terms, this first principle means that our real objective is to maximize production. In doing this, full employment â€" that is, the absence of idleness â€" hbeâ€" comes a necessary byâ€"product. But production is the end, employment merely the means. We cannot conâ€" tinuously have full employment "withâ€" out full production." "It would be far better, if that were the choice â€" which it isn‘t â€" to have maximum production with part of the population supported in idleness: by undisguised relief than to provide "full employment" by so many forms of disguised makeâ€"work that producâ€" tion is disorganized. The progress of civilization has meant the reduction of unemployment, not its increase It is because we have become increasingly wealthy as a nation that we have been eble virtually to eliminate child laâ€" bor, to remove the necessity of work for many of the aged and to make it unnecessary for millions of women to take jobs. A much smaller proporâ€" tion of the American population needs to work than that, say, of China or of Kussia. The real question is not whether there will be 50,.000.000 or 60,000,000 jobs in America in 1950, but how much shall we produce, and what, in consequence, will be our standard of living? The problem of distribution .on which all the stress is being put today is after all morse easily solved the more there is to distribute." "Wages and employment are cisâ€" cussed astif they had no relation to productivity and output. On the asâ€" sumption that there is only a fixed amouxnt of work to be done, the conâ€" clusion is drawn from that a thirtyâ€" hour week wil} provide more jobs ard will therefore be preferable to a fortyâ€" hour week. A hundred makeâ€"work practices of labor unions are conâ€" fusedly tolerated. ® ‘"Nothing is easier to achieve than full employment, once it is divorced from the goal of full production ana taken as an end in itself. Hitler proâ€" vided full employment with a huse armament program.. The war providâ€" ed full employment for cvery nation involved. The slave labor in Germany gave fnll employment.

Gravely unfolded the crackling parchment, and said, "Fellow club memâ€" bersâ€"â€"tiais is an invitation to all bachâ€" elors to attend an annual party at Ecaussines, Belgium, the object of which is matrimony, and the secretary saysâ€"â€"â€" she enclosed her picture and is she ever lovelyâ€"â€"â€"that the girls will meet all trains, the town band will be out to greet us, and we‘ll parade to the city hall to sign the register, which, I am informed, is practically the same as signing tre marriage register." The caultfous Scot rose. "One thing you all seem to have forgotten, too, areall these ‘girls Belgians? And if they are remember that we bachelors can‘t speak the Belgian language. How "Weil," said the cautious Scot. "I dinna like being rushed into something we might well wish we were out of before the winter was over. Couldn‘t we write and ask for the girls pictures, find out if trey can cook and a few eteceteras. "Who cares if they can coOk," exâ€" claimed the City Slicker. "I‘d say ask them to send a few vital statistics and measurements, ages, sporting acâ€" tivities dnd that sort of thing." ‘ The Sage buttoned his jacket careâ€" fully before he spoke. *"Yes, and it might be well to ask if any are interâ€" ested in philosophy, art and sculpture." "And if there are any potential or budding actresses or singers amongst them," added the Drama Leader. "And don‘t forget to ask if there are "Gentlemen," he said sternly. "This nonsénse has gone far enough. These girls have sent us tais invitation in all sincerity and with good intentions. Aftér all, matrimony is not a matter to be Saken‘ lightly, and we should not disâ€" cuss It as if it‘s a joke. After all, these Jerry the Juggler had a word on the matter. "This idea of not being able to" talk to these prospective brides is bunkum. I met quite a few Italian, French, Dutch, and ‘Belgian girls when I was hoofing it in those respective countries wita the footâ€"sloggers, and believe ‘me, language was no barrier." ‘"Wooftâ€"Woof!" barked the City Slicker, which brougat the Chief Helmsman to his féet and pounding angrily on the table with the ketchup bottle. "The type of show : I‘m thinking. of isn‘t ‘the type. for Carnegie or the Metro," answered the DramaLeader "Unilets," he added, "some unexpécted young virtuoso Ded up, and naturalâ€" ly, I‘d see that she got her chance in music‘s greatest and highest halls." "Aye, lad," hastily interposed the cautious Scot his face quite red.

"But not quite dignified or cultured enough. If we‘re going to put on a drama show I‘m in favour of putting on a classic, suca as "Hentry The Eighth" or "Cleoâ€" patra and Caesar." "Rats," exclaimed the City Slicker. "Who wants to see the classics. People are more interested in shows like "FPorâ€" ever Amber," or "Ten Nights In A Barâ€" "And what about Harry Lauder," shouted the cautious Scot. "You can‘t beat the bagâ€"pipes." Max the Massive rose, his face black. "Gentlemen, we must have decorum at our meetings, you fellows are carryâ€" ing on like a bunch of women at a hen party. You‘ll have to control yourselves better, we‘re getting away from the point under discussion. After all, this is just an invitation to attend a bacaâ€" elors party sponsored by some womenâ€" folk, and, as 1 ponted out, I believe their intentions are honourable. All we have to do is answer yes or no, or state how many willing bachelors will attend the party." "Pardon me, I‘d like to ask a quesâ€" tion," said the Sage. "But who is this Decorum you mention coming to our meetings." The Chief Helmsman gave the Sage a withering:iook. "IT‘d suggest you refer to Mr. Webster, Messrs. Funk and Wagâ€" nall, or the :Oxford Dictionary. Decorum is ncot a man he‘s a condition, the sort of condition that doesn‘t exist at a woâ€" men‘s bridge party where everybody talks at once. However, that‘s beside the point. Let‘s get on with the busâ€" "Now who intends to attend this bachelors party, the ohject of which is matrimony?" "Who cares if they can coOk," exâ€" claimed the City Slicker.

"Nobody wants to hear a song in English these days anyway." â€" "And philosophy, art and sculpture that is the same in any language," quoth the Sage.

It may well mean lost markets and lost jobs. When pressures of that kind develop in tie States, labour.alâ€". most invariably follows suit in Canada. But our economy differs so vitally from taat of the United States that some things they can absorb Canadians canâ€" not. We must watch out for any inâ€" crease of costs that would shut us out of world markets. In the States, reâ€"opening of Wage contracts and the hiking of wages a.uto- matically follow any increase in the Cost of Living Index. In Canada, the operation of this system is not quite so automatitic â€" reason tends, we are glad to say, to play a greater part. The United States is virtually selfâ€" contained â€" depends far less on export trade than we do. On the other hand, one dollar out of every three in Canada‘s national income comes from our °xâ€" port trade â€" one job in ei}ery taree depends on, it.
