Unemployment Intensifies Plight ^ of the Tuberculous Orillia Fire Brigade responded to i was necessary to have police to re- more than 150 calls this year. The'gulate the traffic and the charcb town's fire loss has been in excess of $75,000. When the Duke and Duchess of Kent went to church on Sunday it building was packed. Unfortunately we are a little short on Dukea and Duchesses in this country and our pulpiteers have to go ahead nndet their own steam. The unemployment problem has in- tensifled the work carried on at. the Toronto Hospital for Consumptives, the Muskoka Hospital for Consumptives and the IJueeii Mary Hospital for Con- sumptive Children, where more than a thousand patients are now being treated. It is hard to realize the pUaht of the unfortunate victims of tuberculosis. many of wliom come from the homes of the very poor where cramped quarters make the supply of fresh air and sun- shine often as meagre as that of noiu'ish- ing food. At these three institutions, men. women aud chlldreu are now being provided <rith that which they hitherto lacked and there is hope for tlieir recovery if friends continue the voluntary contributions of other years. Only a few patients are able to pay anything toward their keep: there is not one for whom the whole cost of maintenance is received Each ' year, there is a difference of thousands of dollars to be paid out.
