ORMISTON SAD PLIGHT OF DESTITUTE MAN, WIFE, CHILDREN Ba Ejected From Home in City Start Long Trip on Foot The most pathetic scene of a man pulling a home-made cart, on which were seated three of his children, and a tired and worn-out mother, pushing a carriage behind contain- ing a three-months-old baby, was witnessed by Whitby citizens on Tuesday afternoon as the miniature but strange cortege passed through the, centre of the town, The man was Charles Gray, a vet- eran of the Great War, workless, homeless, and without money, who, after nine months of trying to get a job to keep himseli and family together, and of having to accept charity. from city organizations, de- cided to start on foot for Lachine, Quebec, @ distance of 334 miles, where Mrs, Gray's mother lives, sailor by calling, Gray answered the bugle call to defend his kinz anc country, and for four years servee with the third machine gun batta- tion, On his return he got some work, but for nearly a year now he has tramped the strects of 'Toronto looking for work without success. The ejcction from hig home because of rent arrears, after he had beei compelled to sell all of his furniture to get food for his Yamily, was in deed a staggering blow to him and Kidney Trouble, Lame Back - "Dr, Plerce's " Anurlic Tablets are excellent as a kidney tonic, My kidneys were con- gested, causing my back to be so lame that I could not do anything that would put a strain on my back," sald Wilber Beatty of 339 Queen St, "1 took 'Anurie' and it removed the con- gestion from my kidneys and the lameness left my back, I have not suffered with my kidneys ginee," All drunegiats sell DR.

Orm- president of the Christmas Cheer and Welfare und, who made arrangements with Thompson's ser- vice station on Dundas Street East to have them stay in good, warm, well-furnished cabins for the night, and also for their meals at a loca restaurant, A few sympathetic citi- zens put their hands in their poc- and brought out moucy to keep night, pay for their meals, and give them a little to start east with, But might have been made to send them to Montrealion the bus, and his wife expressed their appre- ution of the assistance given them STORE BREAKERS GIVEN TERMS IN THE REFORMATORY Allan Levang and Geo.

A. McGibbon lecture for his folly in allowing himself to get into such serious trouble, facing as he did a long penitentiary term, Crown Attorney 'commended most of the of- fenders before the courts today are young men, some of whom had de- liberately and others thoughtlessly entered a life of crime, of the youth of the prisgner, and the fact that he had not been in Attorney told court that he would consent to a moderate sentence, A pathetic touch was given to the pro- ceedings in connection with Levang when a letter was produced from Disney Block Opp. P.O. 1516~Phone~1510 his mother, indicating to the Crown attorney that he eame from a good home and had a mother who was anxious that he should zo straight, George Clarke, alias Kellen, alias Fish, is 26 years of age, and accord- ing to the police records has been in jail for the best part of 12 years, 'He had only been out of the peni- ntiary after a four-year sentence or about two weeks when he came to Whitby in company with Levang and again found himself in hands of the law. Clarke, of Canadian- Jewish birth, somewhat pathetically pleaded for a chance to make good and not to be sent to the peniten- tiary, His father and mother are dead, and he told the court, that he had never had any person take an that he" was not a criminal, but Crown Attorney McUGibbon remind- ed him that his past record did not bear out this contention, He was warned that if he did not mend his ways when he got out of jail again he could only hope to spend more years of his life behind the bars, Magistrate Willis, impressed with the evidence given by both men, and their expressed desire to make 400d if given a reasduable chance, was inclined to help them by im- posing a lighter sentence, He warn- ed both men, however, that they could not always expect to be given this consideraion, and that after serving their terms if they again wot into trouble it would go harder with them. The pair were then sent to the Ontario Reformatory, HOSPITAL PLANS FOR EXTENSION ARE DEFERRED (Continued from page 1) itv pays $1.75 and the Province 60 cents per day for each indigent pa- tient in the Oshawa Hospital in 1931, according to the latest report of the department of health upon publi¢ hospitals, was $3.37 per day, a figure which compares very fa, - ourably with costs in 'other hos- pitals throughout the Province, "It is evident, therefore, that loss of $1.02 per day is incurred by the Oshawa Hospital for each day's treatment of every indigent patient Then again, neither the province nor the municipality contribute Lanything to extra services for in- digent patients, such as X-ray, lab- oratory, medicines, dressings and the like, In the vear ending Sept 30th, 1931, the Oshawa Hospital furnished these services to the value of $3,857.92, without receiving any- thing in return, Furthermore, by reason of the residence rule in the Public Hospitals Act, which onl the idigent patient 'has resided therein for three months during the five months immediately preceding his admission to the hospital, a con- siderable sum is lost each year be- cause of indigent patients who do not come within this rule, No mun- icipality is liable so the hospital has to bear the burden, Situation Aggravated "At present and for sometime past this situation has been serious- ly ageravated by the increased per- centage of indigent patients to the total patients treated," said Mr Conant, "In 1930-1931 this percent. age rose very sharply until during the months of January, February and March, more than four times the number of indigent patients were treated as compared with the number in 1929 and previous vears Obviously the loss and burden to the hospital has increased accord- ingly and to a serious extent, The hospital is thus a relief institution of no mean proportions, The mun- icipalities are obtaining treatment Yor their citizens requiring hospital care at less than cost and at very considerable expense to the hos- pital; To Conserve Resources "When and as long as all munici- palities are unduly burdened, as they are at the present time, it is unlikely that anything can be done to remedy this state of affairs, The directors of the Oshawa Hospital are, however, fully aware of the situation and that it may continue for some time. They realize, fur- thermore, that these demands are likely to tax the resources of the hospital to the utmost, The direc- tors are, nevertheless, determined that every effort shall be made in the administration and management of the hospital and in the conser- vation of its resources so that the institution may maintain its pre- sent standard of service but may not become a burden upon the city and the tax-payers, In line with this policy and in order that our resources may be conserved and overhead costs maintained at a min- imum the directors have decided that no construction programme or any capital expenditures which can be avoided or postponed shall be undertaken at the present time."
