ABBREVIATING certain words in our
telephone directories can often reduce
a listing from two lines to one, This not
only makes the directory thinner and
easier to read, but also less costly , to
produce.
In one of our bigger directories, for
instance, taking out just one line saves
enough paper to print 1,310 pages or
1 directories!
This careful attention to little things
is typical of how all departments work
to keep costs down. It's one of the

Aid to Working Mothers
Pay nurseries and day-care centres,
helpful as they are to working
mothers in the cities where they are
available, de not solve the problem
for Many Canadian women left to
bring up their children without a
husbaed and without a home. There
are some 15,000 deserted mothers in
Canada today, and many times that
number of widows with dependent
children, points out Margaret Austin
in the current issue of HEALTH
magazine,
"We need living quarters for such
mothers and children where day-care
for the kiddies is available right on
the spot," writes Mrs. Austin. "Day
nurseries and day-care centres such
as we have in Toronto have been a
wonderful help; but they don't go far
enough,"
Day care falls short because of the
difficulty of taking the child to and
from the centres in rush hour traffic
and in all kinds of weather. On top
of that, most day-care centres have
no facilities for looking after children
who may be ill; so the mother either
has to stay at home and risk losing
her job, or impose on some conven-
iently located friend or relative. Such
a mother is seldom able to afford a
nurse or baby sitter.
Mrs. Austin tells of one talented
business woman who gave up a
promising career and took a poorly
paid housekeeper's job, with demands
far beyond her strength, because her
child's health could not stand up to
the rigors of daily rush-hour street
car travel. She goes on to describe
what it's like to live a hand-to-mouth
existence in, rented rooms with a
youngster with desperately needs a
secure environment.
The poorest lodgings fetch exxces-
sive rents these days," writes Mrs.
Austin. "As for food, inadequate
housekeeping facilities, hurried shop-
ping and hastily prepared meals do
not make for economy and certainly
not for health.
"All in all, the aggregate cost of
living—and we must concede it is
very poor living—for even 10 or 20
such women and children must great-
ly exceed what it would cost to house
and feed them all .fldeenately in
well-run group housing project, and
to provide day-care facilities for the
children under the name roof."
"Too many people shiver like cold
sparrows under the eaves of other
peoplo'e houses, never quite belong-
ing anywhere," She Writes, "I'd like
to see less fopd on window sills and
more people enjoying good, square
meals in a common dining room."
Mrs. Austin points out that under
the existing ;social service set-up
when such a working mother's health
breaks down under the strain of try-
ing to be both father and mother to
her child, she is well and speedily
cared for. The authorities see to it
that she is hospitalized and her child
is whisked off with the greatest
efficiency to foster care of some kind
—all out of the public purse.
"How much better if a considerably
smaller sum per working mother
were spent preventing such occur-
rences," she concludes. "Right now
there is no such happy preventive,
but perhaps somewhere there is a
person or an organization with the
pioneering spirit to help devise it."
NEW OFFICE FOR
BLIND AT LONDON
James H. 'Kinkead, Chairman, God-
erich-Huron Advisory Board to The
Canadian National Institute for the
Blind, has just announced the trans-
fer of the local' branch from the
Windsor district to. the London office.
"Although we have enjoyed the
services of the Windsor Field Secre-
tary for some years," he said, "Wind-
sor is 195 miles away, which meant
that visits to our County were limit-
ed. London, on the other hand, is only
65 miles distant, and therefore chan-
ces of seeing our Field Secretary are
that much greater,"
The new Field Secretary is Ed.
Wheeler a young man who has been
blind since childhood, He attended
public school in Peterborough, (his
home town), for several years, and
transferred to the Ontario School for
the Blind, at Brantford, where he
completed his education. After gradu-
ation he contacted the C.N.I.B. Em-
ployment Department for a job. He
was placed in industry on war work
at The John Inglis Company, Tor-
onto, where he worked on the assem-
bly line on the production of Bren
Gun magazines! At the end of the
war he transferred to C.N.I.B.'s Field
Service Department, and after rigor-
ous training in Social Work, Admin-
istration, and Public Relations, he
was offered the London fieldship, a
post he has occupied for five -and-
one-half years. He is married, with
two children, and the couple own
their home located in London's pleas-
ant residential-Alrea.
The addition of Huron County
with its forty blind citizens, will bring
the London case files to 400, Other
counties administered by Mr. Wheel-
er's 'office include Middlesex, Elgin
and Perth. Notwithstanding this large
district and the large number of
clients, the new Huron Field man
expects to provide the necessary ser-
vice to his new blind associates. Al-
ready steps are being taken to offer
the facilities of the pre-school child
consultant to the parents of a six-
teen months old girl at Centralia. The
consultant will advise the parents as
to the best methods of conveying to
the child by touch and sound, ideas
and images usually learned through
sight,
When asked his opinion of the extra
work, the transfer of the County
would involve, Mr, Wheeler said,
"There is no doubt forty extra cases
will mean considerably more work, At
present we are about to register an
other seven. However, our main oh-
ject is bringing our rehabilitation ser-
vices to the blind and even when it
means extra work, we do it gladly,"
Coal. Research Means
Industry for the West
Due to the rapid expansion of Many
industries across the country, Canada
le leaving behind the period in its
development when it was primarily a
producer of raw materials, Secondary
producers are taking their place
alongside those who mine and export
the riches of the earth,
Major industries have come to stay
and industrial experts foresee the
founding of yet more chemical and
metallurgical plants. Their life-blood
is fuel, Areas of Canada rich in fuel
and possessing base materials such as
limestone are expected to develop var-
ied secondary industries es defence
and other needs increase.
One of the most important short-
term products now being developed
is intended to relieve the growing
shortage of good coking coal on the
North American continent. Coke, a
carbon-rich substance, is essential in
steel-making, the smelting of various
ores and in the manufacture of gas.
It is produced by baking coal to drive
off volatile matter. After the Appala-
chian Mountain region in the east,
this continent's largest deposits of
coking coal occur in the Crow's Nest
area of Western Canada.
Convinced that this area will con-
tinue to grow in industrial import-
ance, fuel experta have developed a
method of blending coals from its
mines in order to produce blast-fur-
nace and foundry coke, By this means
coal of indifferent coking quality is
"married" with other types better
suited for coking, Coke thus pro-
duced from blended coal will be able
to draw more fully on the impressive
resources of western Canada where
Alberta alone has half the country's
coal reserves.
Among long-term experiments pro-
gressing in the laboratories are those
aimed at producing oil from coal.
Canada's oil industry is in a healthy
condition and its prospects are ex-
cellent. It is, however, expected that
demands made on it will continue to
grow. At the present time, the known
oil and natural gas reserves of Can-
ada are small compared with the
known reserves of coal. It is reckon-
ed that in the province of Alberta
present natural oil reserves amount
to 1.4 billion barrels. The energy in
the province's coal reserves is equiva-
lent to 140 billion barrels.
Meanwhile, Canadian fuel engineers
are also pushing ahead with studies
on methods of unlocking still larger
quantities of coal from the folds of
the Rocky Mountains. It is believed
that they enclose very large quanti-
ties of good coking coal not included
in present day figures of western coal
reserves. Present estimates show that
known reserves total 90 billion tons
of coal-future estimates may be even
larger.
Huron, Indians along the Georgian
Bay lived 300 years ago, not in wig-
wams, but in bark covered long
houses. Ontario's first apartment
houses, they accommodated up to 25
families under one roof.
Huronia's original red-skinned in-
habitants were agricultural Indians,
gaining their livelihood primarily
from the soil.
