Carefully pre pared, with illuminating facts givâ€" ing a picture of the unemployment situation in the province and the steps being taken to combat the scourge, the address was as nearly nonâ€"polftical as it was possible to and ure. In these words, Hon. David Croll, Ontario‘s Minister of Welfare and Municipal Affairs, concluded a brilâ€" liant, twoâ€"hour effort in the Legisliaâ€" ture last week, in which he out lined to an attentive House and equally attentive galleries the work of his department, the problems he has had to meet and is still meeting, and the plans and hopes for the futâ€" to fully solve the problem of unemâ€" ployment; we have never made such a claim, either in office or before we took office. But we must and shall claim that we are getting things done, that with due consideraâ€" tion for the rights of those who pay and the rights of those who receive,. placing buman values always first."

The minister showed a comâ€" plete grasp of the subject and his facts and figures allowed of no conâ€" tradition. Applause thundered from all sides of the Legislature when the minister ended on the ringing note of "human values first, always." the limit. Politics would piay no part in the administration of unemâ€" ployment relief. Much still remained to be done but of necessity the work must be slow, though progress would be steady. Space is too short for anything but a brief resume of the welfare minister‘s address. He contrasted the confusion found in the welfare department when he took over with the orderly, uniform system now in effect. No extravagent claims were made but the House was told that as far as provincial jurisdiction went the province would do its share to lack of coâ€"operation on the part of a number of municipalities in the administration of relief. The minisâ€" ter emphasized that equalization of relief allowances throughout Ontario was the aim of his department, and that great progress had already been made in this respect. Mr. Croll pictured the day when the Dominion government, in coâ€"opâ€" eration with the province, would take over the entire cost of relief and lift the burden from all muniâ€" cipalities. Ontario would be ready to adopt any new measure of this kind, he tolid the House. He emphasized that he did not favour direct relief but recognized that it was a necesâ€" s:ty. Since coming into power, the Liberal government had spent over $5,000,000 in wages for labour. This sum would otherwise have gone inâ€" to direct relief. 100KING AF 7 / Scene two, "Three knocks in the night" reveals Barbara in India, visâ€" iting her parents, Dr and Mrs Lane. Her father, (Mr. Wm. D. Erwin), a medical missionary is almost swampâ€" ed with work. Her mother, (Mrs W. Ritchie) is also crowded with duties but feels amply compensated beâ€" cause of the many converts gained. When Dr. Lane excuses himself and goes to his patients and Mrs.| Lane goes to bed, Barbara‘s meditaâ€" tions are interrupted by a knock at the door and a hindoo husband (Al lan McLean), asks her to come quickly and doctor his wife who is at the point of death. She explains that she is not a doctor, but will send her father. The mere suggestion meets with an indignant protest. He would rather let her die than let a man doctor her. Another knock, an other Hindoo husband (Mr. Anthony Holmes) makes the same request for his mother, and refuses the man doctor. _A third knock this time a 12 yearsâ€"old husband (Lloyd Erwin) The play was in four scenes. First came the "Sweet girl graduates", S. Bell, Clara Thompson, Edith Erwin, and Thelma Priest, who showed conâ€" siderable talent in their acting. Barâ€" bara Lane (Thelma Priest), the popâ€" ular girl of the college is planning to visit her missionary parents in Inâ€" dia, before she takes up Interior Deâ€" corating as her life work. The thought of losing her causes much grief to her roomâ€"mates who are helping her pack up for the journey.

The last scene, "The God of the Pillâ€"bottle," is laid in the evening of the same day. It discovers Dr. Barâ€" bara opening her mail After attendâ€" ing 289 patients that day she is weary. An outcaste woman, Margarâ€" et Ries, creeps up behind her and calls softly, "Memsahib." Dr. Barâ€" bara learns she has come a long way to find the God of the pillâ€"botâ€" tle. She wants to know His name for the people in her village have been worshipping Him. She is told that His name is Jesus Christ, and accepts Him as her Saviour, singing, "Just as I am". She is joined by one group after another who come up the aisles singing with her. In the centre sits the Bible woman who closes with prayer. It made a brilâ€" liant tableau, with the coloured lights . a pill one hour and skipping the next. Next came a childâ€"mother, Mae Levi, whose sick baby kept crying very pathetically.

A wealthy caste woman, Essel MacArâ€" thur, came next with her servant, Myrtle Hodgson, who hautily orders the other patients to make way for her mistress. A blind woman, Jan: ette MacMaster gropes her way to a seat beside the rest. A little old woman, Louise McaLean brings a present for the doctor. A smallpox patient, Lucille Trafford, with her face all blotched, rushed in saying that big stone elephants were chasâ€" ing her. At an invitation from the Bible woman, Miss Redford, all adâ€" journ to evening prayers. Scene three, shows her in her docâ€" tor‘s office in India, four years later. The outer office is soon crowded with patients, all browned and cosâ€" tumed. The first native (Ethel Erâ€" win) rushes into the doctor with a ‘tummyâ€"ache‘ and receives powders which she proceeds to chew, paper, powder, directions and everything. The second patient, Jean Herrington quarrels with another patient, Freda Ritchie, who sits groaning with "an evil spirit in her ear". Another Hinâ€" doo woman comes down the aisle on crutches, Jean Enwin, her foot is swelled and bandaged, but she folâ€" lows the doctor‘s directions by taking wanting her to doctor his 11â€"yearâ€"old wife and refusing the man doctor.
