ANTONIA ANDANIA RVâ€"180 URGES BATTLE AGAINST "PSYCHOLOGIGAL" POVERTY Action Should be Taken to Minimize Hardships That May be Overcome in the Present Situation for Business and Employment. There is no doubt but that conditions throughout the country are not as good as they should be. There is conâ€" siderable unemploymentâ€"a disgraceful amount in a young and rich country like this .But at the same time there is every reason to believe that some of the hardships come from imaginary troubles rather than actual facts. People on salary who are in steady employment perhaps with increased wages and prospects of the best are inâ€" clined to retrench just to be in fashion. Governments plead hard times to avoid expenditures of one sort or anâ€" other. The trouble goes round in a sort of vicious circle. There is no quesâ€" tion that many are not as prosperous as they were. Actual facts impress that on them in brutal way. Others have escaped any injury from stock market crashes or trade depressions, but they enter into the gloom of the less fortunate making the general situaâ€" tion worse than it need be. The Monthly Review of the Bank of Nova scotia takes this matter up in logical way. The article under the heading of "Psychological Poverty‘" is well worth reading and heeding. It should be studied and its helpful suggestions carried out so far as is possible by all individual citizens. The Monthly Reâ€" view of the Bank of Nova Scotia says: "During recent months perplexities of the business situation have reacted unfavourably upon many countries inâ€" cluding our own. To deny the facts of the situation would be foolish; to form a judgment, at this stage, on the probable duration or extent of the business recession would be premature. Our common task at present is, in the light of the knowledge now available, so to conduct our personal affairs as not to cause additional dislocation of business; to base our conduct upon reaâ€" son, and not to be swayed by crowd psychology. "Those who have recently suffered actual losses have now no choice, but to work hard and economise with a view to making them good. But the behaviour of those who have only sufâ€" fered losses on paper, who are merely "psychologically poor," can do much to restore or weaken confidence. "In the highly organized markets of tcday, where the demands of myriads of purchasers are, in effect, pooled and transmitted through sensitive merâ€" chandising organizations to the great producing industries with their multiâ€" tudes of employees, a comparatively small change in the purchasing habits of the individual may produce serious consequences. A slightly greater readtâ€" ness to spend in a particular direction may provide the means of livelihood for numbers of* unemployed workers. A slight curtailment of expenditure in a particular direction may result in numerous discharges. Though the priâ€" vate individual, as he spends his inâ€" come, seldom pauses to reflect on the matter, the character of his spending is helping to determine, often at quite remote distances, who shall and who shall not be employed. "In our own country, and in the rresent instance, two large groups have been unfortunate. Many, who were insufficiently protected against the stock market decline of October and November. last, have suffered actual loss as a result of the sale of securities previcusly held on an insufficient marâ€" gin. On the western prairies also, the combination of a short crop, delayed marketing and low prices, has conâ€" tracted the farmers‘ purchasing power, causing delays in collections, and enâ€" forced economics in many households. "It was inevitable that the curtailed expenditure of these groups should cause unemployment elsewhere. So far, the recession of business has been moderate; the Bank‘s adjusted Index of Employment is only about 5%, beâ€" ow the high point of last August; but that unemprloyment is felt, there is no doubt. "Involving as it must, discomfort for those with slender resources, and actuâ€" al hardship for some, this is the most distressing feature of the situation. It is the result of economic influences that are worldâ€"wide and, in the light o> our present knowledge, unavoidable. Our own action ought to be such as will tend to minimiize these hardships; and we may reasona@bly believe that individual efforts to this end will not be without avail, though the results of the conduct of individuals are often impossible to trace." EASTER BALL ON APRIL 21 TO BE GIVEN BY STROLLERS CLUB The Strollers Club have given A number of very enjoyable events since the organization of the club last year, and they are planning "one of the veryp best yet" for Monday of next week, April 21st, Easter Monday night. It is the Easter Ball and will be held in the McIntyre Recreation hall, Schunacher. The music will be by Tommy Stephens and his effective orchestra. There will be the best of music and lots of it. Other features of the evening will be equally pleasing. Dancing will be from ten o‘clock to three. Refreshments will be served, and a good evening asâ€" sured to all. sweet, lovely boys in the cast" of a play that was pelted with overâ€"ripe vegeâ€" tables at Baltimore.

Simcoe Reformer:â€"The Ontario Government is conducting a survey of neglected cemeteries with a view to imâ€" proving conditions which in the phrasâ€" eclogy of one minister "would make anyone blush with shame." It would not be difficult to point out some exâ€" amples of cruel neglect in our own country. Some of the boys in .the team call attention to the fact that reference was not made last week in the writeâ€"up of the winning of the Patton Cup by the Timmins High School Basketball The Patton Cup, emblematic of the Interscholastic championship of the North in basketball was donated by P. J. Patton, of North Bay, in 1922. Since then it has been held by Sault Ste. Marie Collegiate Institute and Sudbury High School, Sudbury losing to North Bay in March of this year. It is a challenge cup open to all Northern secondary schools. Any challenge in the near future will be readily accepted by Timmins H.S. team, but the general opinion is that it will be a very diffiâ€" cult matter to win the trophy from the effective team now holding it.

Most of us can conjure up meaning in that not quite monotonous rhythm, and even some musicians, it seems. Benno Moisewitch is a hardenâ€" ed traveller, but in discussing this on the eve of his departure for South Africa he confessed that he found the rhythm of a train inspiring: it gave him musical ideas. I asked Mark Hambourg also what the effect on him of a train journey was. "Sends me to sleep," was the prompt answer. But Hambourg travels by car whenever he can.
