UNEMPLOYED CARED FOR


Too much praise can not be given
the Citizens Unemployment Commit
tee for the manner in which it is pro-
viding and caring for a great num-
Der of Hamilton's unemployed and
their dependents. No complaint what
ever is heard (outside a few dis
gruntled persons who are everlast-
ingly complaining of this or that) OF
the manner in which the committee is
apportioning the hours of labor pro-
vided by the funds available. Those
men and women with the greater
number of dependents and in the
greatest need, are given the greatest
number of hours labor, proportion
ately. And this plan must be accept
ed as only fair by every fair minded
person
What is being done in the way of
caring for the city's unemployed can
be seen in the report of the first
months work of the committee as
submitted by City Manager Russell
P Price. From November "a to De-
cember 27, inclusive, total of 698
men had been assigned to work These
men worked total of 14,041 hours,
benefiting themselves and 1904 de-
pendents, so that the unemployment
program benefited total of 1852
persons during its first month. The
second months report, no doubt, will
show the hours of labor assigned al
most, if not more, than double the
amount for the first month, due to the
amount of money so generously con-
tributed for the purpose by those in
better circumstances, and who give
thought and are willing to share a
part of their abundance with their
less fortunate fellowman.
Originally it was intended and so
planned, by the committee to provide
work for the city's unemployed dur
ing the months of December, Janu-
airy and February, after which, with
the coming of spring with bright
warm sunshiny days and consequent
outside employment, it is believed
the situation will ease up to great
extent, and contributions were called
for to spread over this length of time
In respone to the call thousands OF
workers have agreed to contribute
certain percentages Of their earnings
for period of one, two and three
months, while many others, in com
merce and business houses have con-
tributed generously fiat sums, all OF
which make up handsome sum for
providing work for those seeking it.
And don't forget, the real worker ap-
preciates all this, as it isn't charity
he wants-it is the opportunity to
work, that he might provide for
those dependent on him and for him
self without begging for it-that is
what he wants.
And too much praise can not be
given those who, by their generous

Stubborn Coughs
Ended by Recipe,
Mixed at Home

Here is the famous old recipe which
millions of housewives have found to
be the most dependable means of break
ing up stubborn, lingering cough. 1t
takes but a moment to prepare and
costs little, but it gives real relief even
for those dreaded coughs that follow
severe cold epidemics.
From any druggist, get 2i5 ounces of
Pinex, pour it into pint bottle and fill
the bottle with plain granulated sugar
syrup or strained honey. Thus you make
a full pint of better remedy than you
could buy ready-made for three times
the cost. 1t never spOils and tastes so
good that even children like it.
Not only does this simple mixture
soothe and heal the infamed throat
membranes with surprising ease, but
also it is absorbed into the blood, and
acts directly upon the bronchial tubes,
thus aiding the whole system in throw
ing of the cough. It lOosens the germ
laden phlegm and eases chest soreness
in way that is really astonishing.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creosote, in
a refined, palatable form. Nothing
known in medicine is more helpful in
cases of distressing coughs, chest colds,
and bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex:
It Is guaranteed to give prompt relief

INTROVERTS SLEEP
MORE THAN OTHERS
Child Center Research BareS
Use of Rest to Escape
From Difficulties.

Sound sleep and a clear conscience
may not go together.
Observations of small children indi-
cate a possible reverse relationship, &C
cording to DR.. Mandel Sherman, direc-
tor of the washington Child Research
Center. Sleep. he says, in many cases,
may be used unconsciously as means
of escape from worries and difficulties,
rather than the result of their absence.
Thus, DR.. Sherman explains, it has
been found that the children from 2
to years old at the center who are most
active sleep less both in the afternoon
and night than those who spend more
time playing quietly by themselves. This
constitutes rough rule-of-thumb meas
ure by which children might be divided
into two classes, the introvertS and the
extroverts. The former are little given
to activity and spend more time brood
ing over their troubles and problems.
IntrOverts Sleep Longer.
Dividing children on this basis, DR..
Sherman says, it is found that the in
troverts sleep longer and less restlessly,
although there is more on their minds.
The extrovertS forget their troubles in
play and other activities. The easiest
way for the introvert to get away from
everything that is troubling him is to
fall asleep.
Two little girls sent to do a rather
unpleasant task he says, were found
sound asleep although they never had
been accustomed to sleep at that hour.
They didn't want to do what they had
been told to do. DR.. Sherman explained
but couldn't solve the problem CT how
to escape doing 1t. Sleep was an easy
way out. Not that the children actually
reasoned it out this way, but the more
the struggled with the problem the
brewster they became
Mental Habits Acquired.
Something of the same explanation,
DR.. Sherman said, may apply to the
fact that country folks sleep more than
their city relatives With nothing to do
after the days work is done but sit and
think, they flee into dreamland. The city
jewellers have the movies, the dance
halls and scores of other ways of escape
from their own thoughts. Sleep may be
an escape both from conscience and
from monotony.
But introversion and extroversion
themselves DR.. Sherman holds, hardly
can be considered Unborn traits of in
dividuals, as they appear among the
children at the Child Research Center
Otherwise they would remain constant
in typical situations, while actually the
personalities of the children change re-
markably with changes in environment.

Is practically impossible to effect per-
