We are thoroughly in sympathy with the movement to provide nec- essities for those of declining years who, through fault or misfortune may find themselves short of funds, hut until something definite is done with the Old Age Pensions scheme, we are of the opinion that this end could be accomplished in some other manner other than that of putting the county to the expense of erecting a costly addition to the Refuge, which, if the Old Age Pen- sion Act comes into force, would at best he a mammoth structure hous- im: only a low inmates. in a manner acceptamc to all resi- .io-nis, the prvsent is a ratl'mr poor time. to our mind. to think of any building programme. \Vhat with the puttin into force of the Old Age PPnsiuns . ct, and this is coming in the very near future, if signs count {Or anything, the Houses of Refuge' in the various counties will be all but depleted. If we take our own House of Re- fuge as an example, we think we are in hounds when we say that the in- troduction of the Old Age Pensions scheme would automatically be the means of the removal of at least 80 per cent of the present inmates, who eould retire on pensions to their own homes instead or being wards of thp county.
