Ps PENSIONS FOR MANY AGED IN ONTARIO COUNTY While Many Mothers Are Helped Under the Allowance Act. ~~ There are 718 persons in Ontario County receiving pensions under the Old Age Pensions Act, representing] an annual . outlay of $162,670.28. These . figures, released by Owen Davies, ex-reeve of Uxbridge township and secretary of the Old Age Pensions Board for Ontario county, reveal that the number of pensioners is increasing rapidly in the county for two years ago.the number stood at some 1650 less. "Recomm niations for the payment of pensions ard made at every meeting 8 8 The old- est: pensoney in the Cots today is nearly a century old. He was placed on the list only recently. Among the pensioners are not a few residents of the Ontario County Home, who are more or less paying their way and saving the County of Ontario many hundreds of dollars an- nually.- One must be 70 years of age '| and have no adequate means of self support to" obtain a pension, while there are a number of other qualifica- |- tions to be complied with dealing with such matters as property possession, nationality, length of residence in the country, ete. Mr. Davies is of the same opinion as others that the- depression of the past few years has been the means. of adding to the list of pensioners, both men and women, not only in this county, but throughout the province. The Pensions Act, has therefore been a great boon to many, facing life's sunset, with no money. : Mothers' Pensions Figures up until the end of March this year show that the bill for pen- sions under the Mothers' Allowance Act in Ontario County was $33,943.10, There are quite a number of pen- sioners in the county; in fact, the num. ber is gradually increasing. Formerly the County of Ontario paid a portion of the cost, but thig is now borne en- tirely by the Ontario Government.

STOUT AGENT, PORT PERRY CHILDREN SHOULD LEARN GOOD PHONE MANNERS (By Angelo Patri, in Globe & Mail) The' telephone is a necessity in the household, and every member of the family should be trajned in its use. There ig no reason why 'a little child cannot answer the calls and say, "This is Bunny. Will you hold on until I call mother, please?" "That is the first lesson: Tell who it is that is talking. * It is not good manners to play with people on .the telephone. "Guess who '| this is", can only annoy without pleas- ing. anybody. Teach the children that the instrument is nothing to play with 'and so give them a good start in the right direction. The older children need to be taught that long and useless talking is all out of order on a telephone system. "Re- cently a girl 156 used the house tele- phone for half an hour, and her father, trying to get a message to his home before he started on an unexpected trip, was obliged to call one of the neighbours in order to get his call through to his family. "Holding a wire uselessly is likely to cause distressing delay in emergency.. Older young people need to be taught not to say over the wire what they would not say to the person at the other end were they face to face with one of them. It is better to be formal, polite, kindly and brief at any time. Save personalities of any sort for personal meetings, and"so save em- barrassing moments later on. Don't, if you are a girl, call your boy friend on the telephone .and hold endless conversations consisting mdin- ly of, "Yeah? Who says? Sez you, O really, Huh-huh, Sorry, Yeah? Sez you, O really?" Your father loses his temper and shouts, "Cut that non- What's the idea?" What do you suppose the boy" s father is say- ing to him? "And the rest-of the family. Let the boy call you, and an- swer him briefly and to the point. You will not lose anything by it and you will prevent a lot of trouble and ayn- noyance in your families. y 'When young people are visiting they ought not to use the telephone without asking permission of their host or hostess. = And they ought not to ask it unless it is absolutely necessary. If a long 'distance call, or any toll call, is made, the young person shoud make certain he pays for it. If a host gets {a bill for his guest's long distance calls he does not remember that guest's visit with any pleasure.

This edition contains the following message from the King--"To all serving in my forees by sea or land or air, and indeed to all my people engaged in the de- fence of the realm;-I commend the reading of this Book. For centuries the" Bible has been a wholesome and strengthening influence in our nation- al fe. It behooves us to turn with renewed faith to this divine source of comfort and inspiration." Through jts Auxiliaries in Canada the Bible Socicty during the last war issued over half a million copies in eighteen languages to those in nation- 'al service, The Parent Organization in London during the same time dis- tributed more than nine million copies in eighteen languages. The society points out both the immensity of its opportunities for service and also the difficulties of these abnormal times, The Upper Canada Bible Society, the local Auxiliaries within this Province, estimates that a 20% addition to the Society's regular income will be neces- sary if 'the. demands and the oppor: met.
