Handicraft Rrizes Awarded The pupils in grade seven of the Surnmerslde High School upon m: uuggestion of their teacher, M188 Ethel Tanton, gave an exhibition of their handiwork at the Christ- mas closing last Thursday. -’I'he class room was very attract- ively decorated with wreaths of cvergreen made by the children. In- vitations composed Hy the children were sent to Inspector Auld, Miss Holman and Mis Burrows. Miss Ramsay, Miss McLean of the senior grades also came in to see the work. ‘The judging was done by Mr. Auld, Miss Holman and Miss Burrow. - Christmas carols were sung and recitations given and the prizes distributed. The girls’ work consisted of needlework of nil kinds and was a credit to the young indies. The prizes for the girls were given by Miss Gladys Holman and were won by the following: lst prize, em- broidered buffet set, Miss Margaret Czuits; 2nd prize, runner with hand made edge, Miss Marlon Bert; 8rd prize, door stop in white and blue, Evelyn Walsh. The boys too brought many clev- erly made articles. The prizes were donated by Miss Holman and Miss 'I‘anton. The first prize was a mar- velous piece of work for a small boy, a table lump in the form cf a white bunny with rcd nose carved by Allison Harper, it had an elec- tric attachment and when connect- ed was found to work perfectly. A piece of work any boy would be proud of. The second prize went to Fred Costain for an aeroplane; and third to George McNeill for two nioe drawings. Every child brought something and the things were all very pretty and useful and made lovely gifts for their friends. Mr. Auld complimented the children on their work and said he was pleased to see them employing their time but of school so usefully. Miss Tan- ton has always taken a great in- tcrest in this branch of education for her children and is to be com- mended for it. .After a treat for tho children from. the teacher had been enjoyed all wished each other a.

JOHN'S, Nfld., Dec. 23~Five dead bodies, three of them scalded, {pf 151a "a: weckage, ' both broken ‘by l". tea and shattered—these were the exhibits at an official enquiry into the loss of the Sandbeach. Today Magistrate A. J. O'Really decided the ill-fated wrecking steamer was destroyed by an explosion after she cleared Comerbrcok on December 2. The Sandbeach, owned in New York, carried l2 men to death. Therewas no survivor to tell of thclcllsaster.

It is eB-By to write of the present situation and tc recommend ways and means of effecting improve- ment, and much literature on the subject has been accumulated in the last three years. The public may be ready to listen, but it is always slaw to act, for the pro- gress of reform in all ages has been tcdiously 310W and lessons learned by major catastrophies have not alvrays had an effect for the bei- F i | l terment of conditions. However, there are some considerations which ! are too important to be overlookedt too obvious not to be appreciutcdp and these should be mentioned as providing food for thought. Conscious Effort Needed Thai. silrii situations as ihc pres- ent should be avoided if at all pos- sible goes without saying, Sl-UOCV simple humanity demands that our" fellow beings be saved from the present suffering if such be 110s- sibie. The statement that there is no shortage of material goods but that the deficiency is in the machln ery of distribution is a common- place. Yet we drift info the present depression without making any con- scious effort to avoid it through reasoned economic plansfand after three years o! experience we are no further ahead in consciously eor- recting the present situation nor in avoiding a similar one in the future. Surely this fact should stress tho need for conscious economic plan- ning in the interests 0f humanity, on a national scale at first but lat- er in era-operation with countries abroad. The need for an Economic Commission, laying emphasis on the avoidance of Unemployment, can- not be more apparent. The working day has been com- pulsorlly shortened in many cases due to shortage of employment and a too great abundance of willing workers. In turn this has meant less opportunity for buying through curtailed earnings. What we need is to shorten hours in normal tim- es, without decreasing purchasing power, in order that those who work may have the wherewithal to pur- chase the products of their own industry, and in order that the available employment, so ‘seriously reduced by mechanical devices, may be spread amongst those who re- quire it for their siibsistciieci i Technological Unemployment, which is the world-wide and deep- rooted evil of our present machine age, cannot be remedied except by drastically reducing the workers’ regular hours of labor so that mil- lions more men in each skilled trade may find more work to do. The more hopeful sign is the a- Wfllflflfllng of the public conscience at the plight of the unemployed. Never before has the need for the application of humanitarian prin- ciples been grcater, but never be- fore has the present application of those principles been excelled. It is a dire condition when able bodied men and women, anxious to work and able to work, must resort to relief in order to live; but there seems to be some hope for the world when ‘the response tothe needjsasgreataslt has been during the past three years. Governmnts and individuals have shared heavily in the costs 0i’ relief, with full knowledge that the pressure of public opinion dc- mands this generosity. Let us hope that this evidence of public interest in the well-being of one another is only the fore-runner of a. more enlightened Opinion which will require the application of scientific planning to avoid un- employment and its attendant miseries. In the meantime we may hope the forthcoming Dominion- Provincial Conference will take a first step by working out a sound contributory Unemployment In- surance Scheme for the Dominion. Not merely to relieve an other- wise somewhat depressing recital by a conventional closing with Rood wishes, but rather to keep in mind that, serious though the tim- es may be, it is important that we should retain our balance, I desire to conclude by extending very beat wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the wage camera of Canada. Lat us trust that at last the New Year may prove happy in n ma- terial as well as a mental scnrc. ___..___,. . BIRTHS MACDONALD-At the City Hospi- tal Dec. 24, tn Mr. end Mrs. J. J.

New Health- Discoveries During I932 (Associated Press) CHICAGO, Dec. 23~Medical re- search made many important health discoveries during 1932. A review of the year's work in the field was made today by Dr. Morris Fishbein, Editor of the jour- nal of the American Medical Asso- ciation, and the organization's health milgazinc, Hygcin, Preiucing his retrospect witlrthe reminder that "medical discoveries in any year represent the culmina- tion o! many years of work," Dr. Fishbcln collated a. dozen contribu- tions to human health. New attention was given t0 the possibility that germs are chame- icons of the microscopic world, he said, changing their characters and virulence from time to time. Dr. Fishbein also noted the ap- parent isolation of Vitamin D and. creation of new Vitamin A from halibut and salmon livers. "Much attention was given to the development of preparations of mucin to be used against ulcer of the stomach. The mucin acts as a. protective coat and thus prevents action by the acid of the stomach." Other developments Dr. Flshbeln pointed out were: Improvement of X-ray tubes, small and in fonns capable of (lelivcring higher activ- ity; cxpcriineiitations designed t0 make organs and tissues of the body more visible; development of a. vaccine for use against Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and studies on the application of heat, par- ticularly electrical heat, to the con- trol of various diseases. Also, Dr. Fishbein said, during the year apo- cial interest was attached "to the expending use of oxygen in the treatment of (liscaac, and to the development of devices for forcing breathing where paralysis inter- fcrcs." He recalled awarding of the Nobel Prize in medicine to Drs. Charles concentrates of ’ AT THE MAN GER . - When Mary the Mother kissed the child. And night on the wintry hills grew mild, And the strange star swung from the courts of air To serve at a manger with kings in prayer. _ Then did the day of the simple kin And the unregarded folk begin. When Mary the Mother forgot the pain, In the stable of rock began loves reign. When that new light on their grave eyes broke The oxen were glad and forgot their yoke; And the huddled sheep in the far hill fold Stirred in their sleep and fell no cold. When Mary the Mother felt faint hands Beat at her bosom with lifc’s demands, And nought to her were the kneeling king's, The serving star and the half-seen wings, Then was the little earth mzulc great, And the man came back to (kid's estate. --Charles G. D. Roberta. FOUND GUILTY (Continue-db: Page '1) himself was celled to the witness box for the defence and questioned about his dealings with Samuel In- sulk and his share in a syndicate party to underwrite the stock of the Middle West “Utilities Company.‘ Practically all the other important officers of the Sun Life testified at one time or another. Only once during his long sessions in the witness box did Mr. Mac- aulay inject a personal note into lshcd questioning him he asked permission to. add a word or two and said: "While Mr. I-Iarpell is technically on trial it is really my character that is on trial. Never in all my life have I used one dollar of the Company's money improperly or for aw own purposes. Never once did l allow considerations or persona‘ benefits to weigh with m_e in decid- ing on thelnvestmentsof the com- pany." ' capital out of the two Insull loans. said Mr. Geoffrion. One was for $400,000 to Samuel Insull and the other for $9,875,000 to Insull Util- ities Investments Inc. It had been proven.__they were not really loans at all but transferring of accounts. The Sun Life had made profitable sales of securities to Insull in each case and had been paid in full. The prices obtained had been en- tered as loans until they were paid although no money changed hands. "But this was excellent copy for a man like w. Harpell,” continued Mr. Geoffrion. “It was a chance in link the name o! Mr. Macaulay with that of Insull who was under a cloud. You-saw Mr. Harpelrs con- duct in the witness box this mem- ing and I leave it to you to judge what kind of man he ls." The charge the company had concealed e bank overdraft in the rePOX-t to policyholders for 1931 was another absurdity, counsel con- tended. The cum involved was ex- actly what. was shown in the re- port, a balance due on securities purchased. But in the report to the classed as a bank overdraft be- cause the forms supplied by the government contained no item for balance duo on securities but did contain a space for bank over- draft.

All the other note holders had done the same and the exchange was advertized in the newspapers. ‘ Charges the complainant had “faked his books’ and "preyed on the pcoplo" were "wholly fictitious and unproved," the prosecutor con- tinued, In any case the company's books had nothing to do with Mr. Macaulay who was president.

Prosperity NEW YORK, Dec. 23. -- Calvin Bullock, long established in New York financial circles, has returned from a business trip to Canada, firm in the belief that thesun cf prosperity will shine on the domin- ion independently and in advance of the United States. The financier spoke in tall terms of the good he believes will accrue to Canadians in general from the empire preferences drawn up at the recent Imperial Conference. He aaiii the unbounded mineral resources o the country, her growing importance in manufacturing, her fertile agri- cultural reglons, the yet. undevelop- ed potcntlal markets for many of her products made the outlook for Canada and Canadians decidedly attractive. ' higher protective tariffs culmlnut- . ing in" the recent Ottawa economic conference, together with recipro- cal empire preferences," Mr. Bul- lock continued, “are causing, and will continue to cause changes in the Dominica's domestic economy which should materially strength- en hcr position.
