An Institute Record 0f Accomplishment

Women's Institutes have a re- markable record of achievement to their creditintzhisProvince. Many branches have been particularly active m well-doing and have con- tributed largely to community wel- fare and happiness, and to worthy objectives farther afield. In the very forefront of these branches is the St. Catherines Institute, com- posed of a small group of earnest, industrious, public spirited women. Since its organization about tiavelvc years ago, it has taken an active part in effecting an almost com- j plete change in the educational centre o fthe community-the school, and in the enlargement of adult educational possibilities through valuable assistance in the building of a Public Hall, which now largely serves as a community improvement centre. From this Institute, too, came many of the first progrclsive ideas concerning the erisblishlnent of a Provincial Sanatorium, ideas that were later translated into the first. resolution favoring the building of the sana- torium and presented and passed at the District Convention held in this territory. Since that time this Branch has been active each year in sponsoring the interest; of this well-deserving Irrtitutlcn. Hospit- als, orphanages and other charit- able bodles also have had ample reason on numerous occasions to bless this Branch for its generous contributions.

Within the community the great- est. influence from this organization has been felt. Community and social life has been sweetened and lifted onto a higher plane. The Inititute Creed has been taught and

been put into action and it has been recognized that. common, sincere effort is capable of solving

the little things which keep people ,

apart and of making all large in thought, in order and deed.

During the past. year the In- stitute has been particularly active 1n carrying its messages of symp- athy and friendship to those who have undergone sadness and dis- trefs. New citizens have been cordially welcomed to the comm- unity. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Shaw. the latter an old member and Vice-President of the Federated Womenls Institute of Canada, as well as the first President of this Branch, received s house warming. a presentation and an address. Mrs. Fred I-ilckox and Mrs. Eflwyrl Morrow. brides of the year, were also royaly welcomed and rememb- ered. One of the most. enjoyable functions of the your was in the form of the presentation, accom- panied by an addrc s. of two silver butter-dishes and knives to two 0i the most worthy members of the Institute. Mrs. James Lamont. and Mrs. John T. Inman. Although these two members are the eldest in point of years are the youngest in activity and support. Since the Institute was established they have been active leaders in all that per- talns ‘to community and provincial valuew.

A feature of fine value now going forward is the Girls’ Sewing Club, conducted under the joint supervis- ion of Mrs. Malcolm Morrow, Mrs.

In the way of entertainment, dc- signed for the raising of funds, a chicken supper, a been supper, as well as concert, were conducted. In addition, a very enjoyable supper was tendered the men of the community by the ladies of the Imtitufc, the supper taking place in the home of Mr. and Mrs; Mal- colm Morrow.

(GP. by Guardian's Special Wire)

HALIFAX, April 14-—Pub1ic bus- scs operating in Nova Scotia would be placed under a. franchise by a bill introduced in the Prov- incial Legislature today. The bill received second reading shortly af- tcr its introduction.

Sponsored by Highways Minis- ter A. S. MacMillan, the measure would require all busses to operate under a certificate from the Pub- lic Utilities Board. The Board would be given the power to spec- ify routes and to fix schedules of rates. .

It would be necessary for the operator to carry passenger and baggage insurance. Matters of public convenience and necessity would be under the Boards ad- ministration. "Regulations between ihc busses and the travelling pub- lic“ would be fixed by the I-iiflh" WEIYS Minister.

THREE YEARS 0F REPEAL IN lLS-A.

"The Saloon Must not Return"

President's words after his in- auguration on March 4th, 1933.

There are new more than 400.- 000 places in the liquor business where liquor as a beverage is sold and consumed on the premises. Be- fore prohibition there were only 177.779 licensed saloons. Also these post-prohibition saloons sell to women as well as to men, and generally to minors. Also they have the bar-maid in many-un- known in America before the xe- peal. Joseph H. Choate, former Direc- tor of Alcohol Administration, says: "In the presidential cam- paign of 1933 we were told that. beer alone would bring in $2,500,- 000.0000 (two and a. half billion dollars) a year in revenue but. the total revenue for the first. year netted the federal government only $137,557,000, and ubsequen‘. rev- enue has not permitted the budget to be balanced.

One multimillionaire manufac- turer stated that repeal would save one of his corporations $10,000,000 annual! in taxes-but. his taxes are higher and so are other people's.

In November, 1933, Just before repeal. the American Federation of Labor published the statement that there were 11,030,000 unem- ployed. Irl March, i936, the num- her of jobless was pieced at i3,- 626,000, an increase of 1,596,000 in a. little over two years of repeal.

Some reason for this fact may be seen by the report of the Unit- ed States Statistical Abstract for 1935. showing when lcbor adds 8100 to the value of materials which go into the manufacture of spirits, labor receives only $6.70; but when labor adds $100 to the value of material that. go into textiles, labor receives $50.00, or seven times more.

WHAT ABOUT BOOTLEGGING?

Joseph H. Choate said: “Boot- legging has increased one hun- dred-fold since the repeal of pro- hibltionf’.

late in 1035 Attorney General Cummings reported that commit- ments to prison. because of viola- tion of liquor laws had increased

ninety-five per cent. over the pre- ceding year. He added that if violation and convictions continued to increase Congress would be asked to supply more federal prisons.

WHAT ABOUT WOMEN AND DRUNKENNESS?

Six months after repeal became effective the New York Times re- ported in e, signed article from Boston an increase of twenty-five per cent. in arrests for drunken- ness among women and comment- ed upon the fact that children were able to purchase “IllPfiV Within a. week of this report the Herald-Tribune carried the story of the indictment of four organ- izations for selling rum candy to children.

whit About the Total Consump- tion of Beverage Alcohol?

In July, 1936, Dr. Goldwater, commissioner of hospitals in New York city reported that excessive drinking in New York is increas- ing “by leaps and bounds." The increase in admissions to Bellevue Hospitals for acute alcoholism from

378, an increase of 4,729.

What About Automobile Accidents?

The National Safety Council re- ports that arrests for drunken driving have increased enormous- ly since repeal, the percentage of increase reaching $50 per cent. in Pittsburgh. The Council also states that highway fatalities in which‘ liquor plays a. part. have increased 29 per cent. for drivers and 53 per cent. for pedestrians. Revoca- tlons of licenses for operating un- der the influence of liquor have gone up 33 per cent. in Boston.-

Arbbrevlated from the aftlcle ' by Daniel A. Paling in January "Christian Herald."

WHY I D0 NOT DRINK?

Among the letters received from prominent Washington women in letters to the Washington Herald stating why they did not drink, the following answers were found:

Most were averse to forming the “drink habit." Crne observed that "alcohol makes liars of truthful people” and has “never known a. drunkard to reach old age." Bhc concludes: "1 want. to be captain of my soul; so-I do not drink."

Drinking to make things seem different from that which they are is not. an ideal way of living. “There are so many worth-while things to do in life, why resort. to alcohol to dcadenorparalyize the brain and thus delude oneself with believing things are different from what. they are, instead of trying to meet trials with undaunted courage?"

Another frankly hates to spoil her looks. She says: “If I have any attraction it is in being clean- cut, healthy-looking. And what punches and cocktails will do to clear eyes and smooth hair is something even your best friend won't fell you about. I know. I saw myself in a. mirror one night." She prefers to guard her speech. She has companions who drink and is often the one "to get. them out of scrapes-Jrequently serious ones."

Fkaar holds another in the non- drinking columns — fear of be- coming the wreck a drinking wo- man may become even when "she firmly believes at. the time she is divinely attractive." She writes: "I number among my acquaint- ances a man who has seen a great many women under all circum- stances. He once told me that he bad known only two women in all of his experience who could ‘hold . their liquor?’

Also, non-drinkers felt liquor-l
