- Coincident with the sitlings in Charlottetown this week of the Pen- sions Tribunal, sittings in other parts of Canada are being held, the itin- erary being somewhat in the manner of the sittings of a circuit court. but without the rigid formality attend- ing upon cases at law. In fact. it is this absence of undue formality, and the evident desire of all the officials of the Tribunal to assist the des- erving applicant in every way possi- ble, that most impresses the spectat- or.
