PRIDE IN UNEMPLOYED
"We in Chris tchurch should be proud of the sense of decency of our unemployed," remarked the ReV. P. Revell, commenting yesterday on the applications for assistance received at St. Martin's House of Help (states the "Press"). "They do not come for relief unless they have to. Some of them come to me when they should -have come weeks before. That speaks volumes for the inherent decency of the people. When they can obtain food and clothing free they do not rush after it, but accept it with restraint and dignity."
