Eldred i wish i could Tell the members of the people s club whose husbands get Only 30 dollars a month unemployment pay How they can live on it. It takes More than Good budget it takes about or More. A House May be old and in need of repair but it need not be dirty As Long As there is soap and water. Children do not need fancy clothes they need progressive honest hard working parents to set them a Good example. But because children do need to be kept warm and to. Have sufficient food welfare agencies and children s committees should see that children do not suffer while their fathers Are out of work. Have any agencies been notified of these cases have agencies in Canada we have the red Feather agencies to whom peo ple give generously just Chil Dren shall not go hungry. Why Haven t these people been helped by one of these agencies instead of having to ask Aid of a news paper columnist May i explain that this club did not ask for material help just ideas and suggestions for making their lot easier we Are so proud of our mod Era culture and architecture and High standards of living yet we seem unable to Cope with our in equalities the haves and have not. May i suggest that perhaps some of you could work while the others baby sit and then share what is made Between you have you looked around to find any Low Cost housing developments Avail Able to you if not Appeal to your local authorities to1 get rid of these slum areas. The reason these continue to exist is that people Are Content to live in them not these people and have neither the drive nor the Ambi Tion to do something about it. Use your Power do not accept deplorable conditions. Use your Power As a peo ple s club to make your Story heard and shame those who Are responsible for allowing such conditions to exist. What Are City planners paid for except to rid a City of such conditions human rights rate Over super highways and Fine office buildings and How can we Call ourselves a democratic country when we concern ourselves with bigger and better foreign policies and then let our children go Hun Gry our help lies within o u r selves and our rights As Mem Bers of this democracy to Force such issues and to make better lives for our own 2jhom on husband is worried by wife s conduct by Elizabeth Thompson any sign of abnormal behaviour in husband or wife can cause worry As this letter shows. Dear mrs. Thompson after Many years of Bachelor Hood i fell prey to the charms of an English widow Well educated and attractive physically. During our courtship she was affectionate but reserved it was not until we were married that i discovered with dismay that she had masochistic tendencies. As an average person with no desire to inflict pain on another human be ing i find this trait in her repugnant. I have endeavoured to per Suade her to seek psychiatric help Only to be derided u a provincial unsophisticated. She has tried to rationalize this abnormal behaviour by stating it is quite the fashion and Normal in Continental Europe and the . She says her late husband found no objection but neither reason justifies these acts in my conscience. I love this woman very much and would judge she feels the same Way about me. We Are compatible in every other respect sharing a love of books music and outdoor activities but this aspect of our Union bothers me. Your advice would be deeply appreciated. Troubled husband certainly help if you saw a psychiatrist yourself. He could perhaps explain Why your wife acts As she does and whether the situation is really serious. Sometimes an attitude like hers is caused by a sense of guilt and a desire to be punished for some thing that happened in the past. Only an expert could suggest treat ment. Dear mrs. Thompson i am a widow and have a Little girl six years of age. As i am at business during the Day my daughter is in the care of her grandmother who suffers from nervous trouble and is hard of hearing. Although Mother is very Good to the child and thinks the world of her i realize that it is not Good for her. Could you recommend a boarding school where she would receive cultural and educational training in a plea Sant environment. The child is Bright and healthy and from school reports above average. Worried Mother consult the children s Aid society about possible schools. I think you would be most Likely to get what you want in a Convent and perhaps could have your daughter with you for weekends. Few schools take children As Young As six but the children s Aid might possibly find a suitable Foster Home for five Days a week which would be better for the child than living with her grandmother.
