organization. Now at their annual
meeting last Friday they had a "pay

mice at this was even larger than the

attended the business meeting than

THE CANADIAN FAMILY1
Changes in the number and aver-
age size of Canadian families will be
revealed by the Ninth Decennial Cen-
sus of Canada, to be taken in Jane
this year. During the ten years front
1931 to 1941 the average 'number of
children per family decreased. Since
1941 the number of families has risen
far more than during the 1930's, but
it is probable that the average number
of children per family has decreased
further in spite of a marked increase
in the birth rate. Exactly how much
