Inflation must be brought under reasonable control with- in the next year and I am just beginning to get cautiously hopeful that our fiscal and monetary measures are begin- ing to pay off.

Ultimately, our entire economy could be on a sounder basis. It might' even force us to re-think our some- what free-wheeling and high- flying methods of operation which have tenged to accelerate in recent year. We might re- capture some of those ‘ old- fashioned, but sensible. virtues such as thrift. Productivity should increase and our indus- try would become more compe- titive on the export market and against imports. Our economy would prosper soundly.

In December. 1920. the foreign troops were ordered to pack up and were taken from Mosc0w to Leningrad. Rations were better there and they were allowed to wander around the city. Leningrad had been the capital of Russia under the Czars and was known as St. Petersburg. It was renamed Petrograd by the Provisional Government. and finally Leningrad by the Bolsheâ€" viks. who moved the capital to Moscow. You might have read In the daily press of my suggestion for one way we as individuals can have an effect. The crux of it is to bring cash back into style. (Cash. if you recall, is that green paper stuff with pictures of the Queen on it. If you’re lucky, you might have a bit with pictures of ex-Prime Ministers.) Actually. a cheque for immediate payment is just style. (Cash. if you recall. isthat green paper stuff with pictures’ of the Queen on it. If you’re. lucky, you might have a bit with pictures of ex-Prime Ministers.) Actually. a cheque for immediate payment is just as good. There has been a tendency in recent years to use credit cards indiscriminately. This pre- sents two problems. Firstly. be- cause we can delay payment. we are seduced into buying the things we want rather than the things we need. Secondly the retailer usually has to pay the credit card company anywhere from 4% to 7% of the sales price and this gets built into the price he puts on an article or service. 1 The main culprit we have to fight is what the economists call “inflation psychology". This is the belief people have that in- flation will continue. The ex- perience of recent years has con- vinced us that no matter what an item costs now, it will be even more expensive later. so buy now. Many, but got all. are secure in the knowle ge that if lcosts go up, so will their pay cheques. The trouble is that when most pay cheques go up, costs and prices go up again.

It had been made a showplace so that workers/ and tourists could view the opulence of the de- cadent and autocratic aris- tocracy.

RAMER FUELS [RENEW YORK NORTH Danson Fights ' Inflation 'With CASHEX Card In 1762 Catherine the Great built a "retreat." "The Hermitage" next to the Palace and within 20 years had amassed almost 4.000 paintings. Her successors continued to add to the col- lection and in 1850 an annex was erected to .house paint- ings and sculptures 0f mas- ters from all over Europe. Now I’m not saying it’s as simple as all this, or that cash buying alone is the answer to our inflation problems. As long as there is a high degree of in- flation in the U.S.. we will con- tinue to have a tough fight. We can. however. be a lot worse off and this is one of a com- bination of things we can do to fight inflation. "It is the most wonderful art.“ declares Mr. Dempstar. "It is a good thing the new government never followed through with their intention to sell it." The Hermitage today is one of the great tourist at- tractions for visitors from all over the world. And Mr. Dempster‘s inter- est in art has continued. The walls of the cosy bungalow he shares With his wife. who is also 80. are lined with his paintings. Some are originals. others are excellent copies The federal government is re- stricting its expenditures sev- erely. They are trying to put their house (which is ours) in order by budgeting for a sub- stantial surplus.

My older brother and sister started in the bank too.†Besides liking to work with numbers, Betty likes the variety of jobs a bank offers. She has worked on most of them. Betty’s mother, Gladys Hill, who lives in Rich- mond Hill, keeps an eye on nine-yearéold Rebecca and a babysitter cares for Diana, two years, while her mother Works at the bank. “This way you can‘t get b6red,†she explained. “And people are the most interesting facts in the world," she added. “In the bank you get a chance to meet so many of them.†' The bank has a lot of assets for the secuï¬ty conscious person. It is a comfortable, secure job with benefits. And according to Betty Mulholland, the atmosphere at her bank is very pleasant. In order to accomplish this, Betty gets up at 6.30. does housework, walks to Yonge from Markham Road and Bayview and catches a bus to Thornhill every morning. She arrives at the bank at 8.45. Rambling Around “I seem to be a person who needs both a home and family plus outside work,†said Betty. “I need the children but I need to keep my mind active too.†“‘Workingâ€" in a bank is ideal for me . . . the hours aren’t that long and I can get home in good time and have a. few hours to spendrwrith the girle.†Betty is another woman vizho believes it's the quality of the time you spend with the family not the quantity. Like many aspiring writers, Betty got the urge to write in childhood. She was seven years old and began by writing verse. This is an interest she would like to keep up. In the gem that follows she shares some of her thoughts about life. WHAT IS LIFE? By Betty Mulholland What is life? Is it happiness . . . heartache, poverty or wealth? Is it sunshine or rain? Is it sickness or health? a life of complete happiness, there would be no challenge. We fight for what we want and whether or not we achieve our goal depends on how hard we fight. It is much easier to give up the ship than stay with it and see it safely to shore. I take my hat off to those who have the back bone and spirit to take what life gives them with a smile. There are many things beyond our power. These we accept without question. But life is what you make it and the only way to take life is to keep your chin up and laugh at the world. I’ll tell you what life is. Life is all these things. And few are the people who do not experience all the feelings set in a human soul.†If one were given Who of us couldn’t share a similar philosophy of courageous living. Thanks for sharing; Betty.

LLAan --- ~. by Gordon Murdock, Marco by Howard Morton and Rudolpho by Scott Lauder. The action of the play has been updated from the original, which was set in the days of the depression, but this should in no way diminish the impact of the play, since the problems and emotions in which the characters are involved are applicable regardless of the era. “Evefyone works well together,†she said.

Another is a “Bow Tie" design. They estimate that the materials for a quilt cost about $39. ' But money is not the most important thing. says Mr. Dempster. One has to have an interest in life. to have a daily challenge for living. “People budget money for their old age. but not time. You cannot play bingo seven davs a week. You have to do 5 o m e t h i n g constructive, something creative. some- thing worthwhile."
