Breslin, of Brunswick avenue, Toronto, Ontario. A wedding of interest to the comâ€" munity will be solemnized on Tuesday evening, September 2nd, in Toronto, Miss Silver, in leaving the North Country, will be leaving a host of friends and wellâ€"wishers, as she has been living in the North Country all her life, throughout which she has enâ€" desared herself to many. Dr. Saul Breslin is an honour graduâ€" ate of the University of Toronto, and is established in practice in Toronto. Prior to her departure from Timâ€" mins, several hundred residents of the North Country were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Silver at a reception and dance given in honour of their daughter at the McIntyre hall on Wedâ€" nesday, July 23rd, 1930. Miss Silver was also the recipient of many teas, showers and affairs given in honour by her numerous friends before she left for Toronto. Immediately after the wedding, the young couple will leave on their honeyâ€" moon for New York, Atlantic City, ana cther southern points. On their return they will take up residence in Toronto. The host of friends and acquaintances from Timmins and the North Country extend to the young couple their heartiâ€" ew congratulations and wish them longed happiness. While the big tent used by the Canâ€"| adian Chautanquas was in place and all equipped for the first performance here on Tuesday evening, there was not much time to spare in the work before the hour set for the show and work , sesmed to be continued right up to the time of the opsning performance.| Perhaps the reason for the fact thatl the time for the erection of the tent' was cut so fine may be found in an acâ€" cident encountered on the road.

The findings and recommendaâ€" tions it embodies are contained in a document of several hundred pages. They are the fruit of months of intenâ€" sive study on the part of the three comâ€" missioners: Dr. P. D. Ross, of Oiltawa, chairman; D. M. Wright, M.P., Stratâ€" ford, and Dr. J. M. McCutchson, Toâ€" ronto. The report points to certain defects in the present system, notably to the jails, branded as ‘"inferior in nearly every sense of the word," and contains many recommendations for improveâ€" ment as well as indicating at least one method which might be used for the raising of public revenue to defray hosâ€" pital costs. The commissioners print to the province of Quebec hospital tax on meals, as, in their opinion, a good means of raising revenue. In Quebec all restaurant, hotel and cafe meals costing more than one dollar are taxed five per cent. Report of Royal Commission on Public Welfare Makes This Recommendaâ€" tion in Its Report Just Made Public at Toronto. In order to carry out the report‘s reâ€" commendations, Ontario would have to spend between $20,000,000 and $25,000,â€" 000 in the extension and improvement of its charitable and corrective instituâ€" tions. Many jails would be modernized in construcition and equipment; Northâ€" ern Ontario would be given a mental institution; a provincial cancer hospital woeould be built and the accc:mmodation for epilertrics extended. The commission favours the estabâ€" lishment of a department cf public welfare to strengthen government ‘upelvl‘ on of ‘he corrective and social institutions:.

The report cites statistics and science to show that much crime is directly traceable to heredity or moral deficiency. The exâ€" perience of California with 6,000 satisâ€" factory orerations, is quoted and the government is urged to appoint A judicial and medical commission To draft a sterilization act for submission to the legislature. . The commission insists that general hospitals should be a charge upon pubâ€" | lic funds either provincial or municipal ‘ the recommendation being that the province should pay a quarter and municipality threeâ€"quarters of their ‘ costs.

The jails of the province are found ‘"inferior in nearly every sense of the word," crowded and without the desirable age and type segregation. Extension of the system of suspended sentences and probation periods is adâ€" vocated. The general hosrlitals, it is submitâ€" ted, "should be a complete charge upon theâ€"public funds, either provincial or municipal." Another important recommendation concerns the establishment of a Deâ€" partment of Public Welfare, to strengâ€" then government supervision of the soâ€" cial and corrective institutions and agencies. It is suggested the departâ€" ment might include a minister and his deputy and (the commissions add more as a load than as a concrete reécomâ€" mendation) directors Oof mental hyâ€" giene; psychiatry and research work; child welfare, adult relief, handicapp»d children, adult corrective institutions, juvenile delingquents; a director of supâ€" plies and products and a director of Another change in the present sysâ€" due credit, for conditions. tem favoured by the commissioners is| recommendation for the raising of the placing of the supervision of hosâ€" is submitted.

Lee, chairman of the T. N. O. Commission. Mr. Loo was accompanied by his fellowâ€"commissionâ€" ers, Colone!s L. T. Martin and J. I. MacLaren, and by Hon. W. A. Gordon, Minister of Immigration in the federal government, W. A. Griffin, superintendâ€" ent of the T. N. O., Harry Oakes and Thomas Magladery, former M.P.P. for Temiskaming. ‘The tank is one of the two largest in Ontario. Exâ€"mayor Harry Weeks, to whose, energy, Ooplimism and deterâ€" that the natural connection of hospitals and sanatoria would seem to be with the Department of Public Health. The report prelude explains the commissioners "have conceived their proper itask not to be the setting forth of statistics other than those necessary to furnish an understanding of the recommendations, nor to dwell on morâ€" al reflections, but to endeavor to indiâ€" cate immediate practical steps to proâ€" mote the public welfare." There is bad crowding, it is pointed out, in the majority of provincial inâ€" stitutions and a great call for additionâ€" al construction or extensions, also for better utility and occupational equipâ€" ment. The government is asked to call a special conference of medical men to seek to check the ravages of cancer, "the worst scourge of civilized manâ€" kind," while a provincial cancer hospiâ€" tal and purchase of a radium supply are favoured. In regard to sterilization the report agds: "Why should an immoral defecâ€" tive or an immoral criminal be allowed to propagate more defectives and more criminals and thus promote the burdeni of misery communitiee must cope| with already?" The framing of asterâ€"| ilization act by a combined judicial and medical commission, this act to| be submitted to the legislature, is ad-i vanced as a means of reducing crime and immorality. The experience of California, which has had some 6,000 operations without complaint, is cited. General hospital costs should be deâ€" frayed in the proportion of oneâ€"quarier by the province and threeâ€"quarters of the necessary amount to be found py the municipality. Four types of hospiâ€" A mental hospital, it is reported, is needed in Northern Ontario and addiâ€" tional accommodation is required for epileptics of the province. Specia* educational and institutional care for backward children and their identifiâ€" cation and registration by the heads cf schools is urged, and auxiliary classes should be formed in the populous cenâ€" tres for this type of children, classes with specially trained teachers. ing and of radium treatments should be reduced. The Children‘s Aid Society is comâ€" mended for its work among children in general. Changes in certain curâ€" rent terms such as "depisndent childâ€" ren" and "lunatic‘ "insane" and "inâ€" sanity" would be desirable. The larger jails are unstaffed, the commission finds, and the jailors underâ€" paid. The report blames the deficienâ€" cies of the general jail system rather than the officials, to whom they give due credit, for conditions. The inmates, the report points out,. are usually locked up in their cells earâ€" ly in the evening and remain in loneiy darkness for 12 hours or more. There is too much delay in transferring those destined for reformatories from the jails and their atmosphere, and prisonâ€" ers should not be moved in chained satches for the sake of economy. ‘A 4 dJ 4A A 1 S NA J AMAQC 1 uon‘ â€" CANADAâ€"HER AGECUOTLNTURAL INDUSTRY vAAsinimne i _ The Lee swimming tank is 100 feet |long, 40 feet wide, with a maximum depth of six feéet six inches.
