Recently, Mr. D. B. Lawley, Field Secretary of The Canadian National Institute for the Blind was asked by a man who had been in the habit of contributing to the Institute: 'Doesn't the blind pen- sion take care of all the problems of the blind?" "To the same extent, and in the same way" replied Mr. Lawley, "as the old age pension takes cave of all the problems of men and women who are not blind." - . The pension for the blind has been of tremendous value to many- elderly and ailing blind people but it has notd affected the problem of the young and vigorous blind, They still require assistance in the provision of cm- ployment and in adult education. All the problems of the pensioners are by no means solved. In order to give them an opportunity to enjoy a few of the comforts of life commonly accept- ed as a matter of course by the sight- ed population, there are a great many services such as library service, social service and home teaching that are provided by The Canadian National #, Tablecloth Sets TOYS TOYS GIFTS Christmas Goods are already piling in--- Toys, Dishes, Linens, will all be on display within the next few days LAY AWAY CLUB.

For the most economical opera- tion, always put on enough fuel to keep the fire-bed level with the If bottom of the fire-door.
