There was a time when people were justified in losing their tempers every now and again. Now it‘s not only wise to count to 10, but it‘s best to do a lot of extensive research first. When Joan Morton, photographer‘s model, Long Beach, Calif., asked for a divorce, she charged her husband with undue anger. He found a pair of shorts, size 40, in his drawer. He wears size 32. That was no reason to fly off the handle, Mrs. Morton complained. He should have checked with the laundry. A mother we know who is a stickler for fact, glanced over her small son‘s shoulder the other day while he was occupied with a paint book. He had a realistic picture of a rabbit in natural habitat and was busy painting it a peculiar overâ€"all shade of redâ€"violet. . ‘"Well", obserged his mother critically, "that‘s the first time I‘ve ever seen a purple bunny." The boy put down his brush. He wiped his hands on his trousers. Grudgingly he pulled his eyes away from his work, and gave her a long, blunt look. ‘"This," he said with cold clarity, "is an Easter rabbit. You aren‘t supposed to see them." Serves her right. She should have known. : Come And Get It T he Hotâ€"Headed Public For New Yorkers who have neither time nor inclination for cookâ€" ing, no maids, no spirit for long waiting hours in restaurants, there is aâ€"new business. Homey little kitchens are springing up all over town, where complete meals are prepared, anything from a good hot stew, to lobster and crab au casserole, packed ready to be called for, or deâ€" livered direct to your door. To beat the gasoline shortage, meals go by bus or taxi, the diner adds the fare, one way, to the cost of his dinner. No more of that "Darling, can you cook?" Just light the candles and rearrange the flowers. That‘s all they ask of a bride. ?sllIIIII-I||IllIHllHlImlIlI|IlIllllllIII111IIHHIIIIIIlIIIIIII|IllllIlllIlllllllllllllllIllllIIlIIIIIllllIlllflllIfi He‘ll Tell Y ou Just show an ad man your income bracket and he‘ll tell you how often you wash your neck. At a recent meeting of the Canadian Adâ€" vertising and Sales Federation, Adrian Mead, advertising executive reâ€" vealed that Canadian women living on an income neighboring $2,000, bathe 3.5 times weekly. Girls with an income of $700 only 1.6.. The soapâ€"andâ€"water tide rises in ration with income, lowering proportionâ€" ately. Mr. Mead says it has nothing to do with the cost of soap, that is a mere $2 per year. Mr. Mead thinks it‘s largely a matter of habit. We think it‘s largely a matter of hot water. The lady who lives in a modern apartment with hot water all day at the flip of a faucet is likeâ€" ly to take her bathing lightly. The mother, on the other hand who must cart it from the cellar, wait for it to dribble through antiquated plumbing, or has to portion it out to a family of six, has a different problem. < It‘s an interesting survey, just the same.

His attention had been first turnâ€" ed toward the hospital because of tragedy in his own home. His little daughter, Goldie, named in honor of Prof. Goldwin Smith, for many years the friend of Mr. Robertson, died of scarlet fever in her infancy. This was the only daughter, and her death, occurring when the parâ€" ents were in England, came as a terrible iblow. Whether Mr. Robâ€" ertson had the idea that if there had existed at the time proper hosâ€" pital accommodation for children his daughter might have been savâ€" ed, and resolved that so far as lay in his power the tragedy would not happen in other homes, we do not know. About the same time we lost a sister in infancy. She died of diphtheria begging for a drink of water which her heartbroken family had to refuse her because the doctor said it would be dangerâ€" ous. They never forgave the docâ€" tor as long as he lived, but the doctor after all was walking by the _dim and fitful light of his time, He knew no better. The Hospital for Sick Children was then in existence. It was a small affair directed by some benâ€" evolent ladies and serving, in its way, those who came to it for help. But John Ross Robertson brought a new life into the place. Under the driving force of his energy, the place expanded, the cots were mulâ€" tiplied. â€" He used the columns of his paper lavishly to appeal for the children. At Christmas time page after page of appeals would ‘ be made and lists of .contributions published, and the result, added to his own generosity, began to make the hospital a model of its kind, an institution particularly dear to the heart of Toronto, because sick and sufferng children are always close to the hearts of men and women everywhere. There was some great work done in that hospital in the days of John Ross Robertson and later. Its fame spread abroad. It became an honor to the city, though, like every other hospital we ever heard of, the struggle between ends and means never ceased, inâ€" deed seemed to grow fiercer with increasing demands. On the death of John Ross Robâ€" ertson his will showed that he had made provision for the hospital. It was to receive an annuity of $10,â€" 000 from the estate, and we underâ€" stand that the paper he left was inâ€" structed to publish without charge whatever ~advertising matter the hospital required. After certain contingencies, chief of them being the death of his widow and sons, Mr. Robertsonâ€" directed that â€" his paper should be sold and the proâ€" ceeds turned over to the Hospital for Sick Children. But there was the injunction that none of this money was to be used for new buildings, It was all to be applied for "upkeep and maintenance." No doubt when the estate is finally liquidated there will be a noble legâ€" acy for the hospital from this souâ€" rce, but it would ‘be an Indian gift if there were no new buildings PUBLISHER LIKED THE C@RIMSEY INDEPENDENT Send your contribution today to THE HOSPITAL FOR SICK CHILDREN, College Street, Toronto Nomenemeemeese . e en oo on ooo o on ons omm e n nen omm ennnmmneneond ond ons nenon anonoo ooo o o o en en e i tss s e en en . ooo en ie ie ooo en ooo eneonenennnemennonenene on on e nann eno oo on o â€"eeeseaeeataonee Reeeee se e e dn eC 0 o. mm n n m n nmnii e e n maananaaianananaceonecen dnc enc n eineenanernee enc ces "eevermmecouane B hy B & & «is 4 s & Sf &9 S 459 s 3 s & 3 & «es s#3 & 4s 4& d $ «s #F &3 &2 4 $ 4u% SS es ts e 4# & & §3 43 3e S $ #4 B ds < & S $ SA # s & & &7 A s s § & # S3 «t e & 4 4 S & & dasi & d PCE SFAR WA 3 4 B $ a TAE ETRE TTA E4 B & mMEA a o & B2 aF 4A # AGEY 4 & 4 o & 4t «tss e wa h as s iaksk & ETE DE L a T T c ds d Say f4¢ deuniial ESEA Aird M i uces ces Rer y en sns PT nir ahaF & us e se ( s $ & ze y3 & °s 7 y P ao a f a a BaB â€" @ g:..â€".s sys oatP "~*~ _ ¢ _1 "T I: : ># health for countless ‘children ? NOVE is the architect‘s drawing of a new Hospital for Sick Children which the people of Ontario must begin to build in the immediate future. This task cannot be delayed. Scores of little children today are awaiting the specialized hospital attention which only this institution can give. During the past 70 years, hundreds of thousands of sick and crippled Ontario children have been treated. 95 per cent. of the beds are in the public wards. The 88 doctors in attendance make no charge for these patients. ‘The research laboratories are among the largest of their kind in the country. All Canada benefits from this research. It has béen effective in the prevention and cure of disease. 3 ‘The present hospital is obsolete and overcrowded. More beds are needed. The total number of patients treated has increased 50% since 1929. No This Space Donated by The Grimsby Independent. WHY IS A NEW BUILDING NEEDED ? ready to make use of it. The preâ€" sent campaign, as most readers unâ€" derstand, is to raise funds for new buildings. There is no doubt in our oOwn mind that the hospital would have been far better off since the death of Mr. Robertson if it had received no annual payment from his estate at all. This strengthened the very general idea that the hospital was, in a special sense, the protege of the Telegram, and that, with its important backing, there would be no need for individuals to troublei themselves about their own modest{ contributions. As a result, citizens generally have not recognized their l own responsibility in the matter. | They assumed that Mr. Robertson: and his newspaper had relieved them of it. We should like to make it plain that the responsibility beâ€" longs to all of us, and that none of us dares shirk his part. Who can say that tomorrow it may not be his own child who lies at death‘s door, dependent wholly upon the skill and resources of the hospital to save its life? One does not need to labor the point. We should be ashamed to think that Toronto peoâ€" ple, especially the readers of this column, would need to be urged to help a child in distress. We make no appeal. We think, though, the facts we have pointed out should be considered gravely. There will be lots of tourist traâ€" vel to Europe when peace comes. So many will want to see what civilization has done for the conâ€" tinent. . bed is ever empty and there is a continuous waiting list of 200 cases. The estimated cost of the new hosâ€" pital is $6,000,000. Today, as Classifed Advts. Pay Big Dividends throughout its history, the hospital must rely on the generosity of publicâ€" spirited citizens.
