The officers of the institute i are desirous that all women of Prince : George should become active in institute work. They desire to point out that the institute is one of the few ! organizations of western Canada that j takes in the interests of all women. : and is primarily intended to promote \ pood fellowship and co-operation j a men?: all classes and nationalities of women. The object^ of the institute are to | I improve conditions of rural life; to I I develop contentment and prosperity: ! to promote hom<» ecoiKmiics; public' health and child-welfare: education j and better schools, lefrislation.

What hns been called the Roosevelt plan is made operative at 65 instead of 60 years as ]3ro]».-ed by Dr. Townsend. and the pension is cut from $200 to something between $30 and $50 per'month, br'ng-ititr it more within the sphere of practical politics. It is estimated there will be no more than one million psr-.sons elig'ble for the Roosevelt pension The number has been arrived at from consultation with the relief lists, and the pension lists in these states in which old-age pensions are already provided by the state authorty. This is a very much lesser number than was generally believed to be eli^ib'e as the census for 1930 disclosed 6.634.000 persons to be 65 years, and but 50'" many trips from coast to coa-~t each without sufficient means to support thl A jit f th br year.
