The Solarium is a province-wide institution and is continuing its splendid work in treating and car- ing for our crippled children throughout B.C. No child, re- gardless of creed or color, who can benefit by treatment, ever has been, or ever will be, turned away because the parents are unable to pay for their maintenance, and as the majority of the children ad- mitted are from families who are unable to contribute it is readily understood why it is necessary to appeal onee more to the public for funds as the Government and Municipal grants do not nearly cover the operational costs. We realize that these troubled times are placing numerous de- . mands on every individual but this ‘only prompts us to work that much harder so that our cause will not : be forgotten. _ A dime is not missed by the average person — and yet if each person who reads this letter will put a dime into an envelope and address it to the Solarium Junior League, Victoria, B.C., it will be- come a total of dollars which will go towards the maintenance of cots, and also. assist in buying much needed equipment to further the treatment of these less-fortu- nate children who deserve a chance .

Pre- vious experience in farming. oper- ations, while highly desirable, is not essential for many jobs which can be carried cut under instruc- tion and supervision. The question of remuneration to be paid by the farmers is one of vital importance as the prices the farmer receives for his prod- ucts are too low to permit the pay- ment of unduly high-wage scales to inexperienced helpers who must be instructed and supervised. If the farming industry were produc- ing on the same basis as the ship- yards there would be no need to worry about this point. In the ease of berry picking and other farm jobs, which are paid on a_piece-work basis, the ‘farmer pays according to results. But in a large number of other farming operations in which, of necessity, hourly wage rates must prevail, the farmers’ position “needs the most careful consider- ation. ‘Everyone knows that an ade- quate supply of experienced farm ‘ help is not now available and that farmers will have to accept what help they can get. But unfortu- nately farmers are not in an eco- nomic position to pay wage scales similar to those prevailing in other industries, especially to inexperi- enced ‘help, however willing that help may be. -It is essential that a standard- ized fair-wage scale be officially established for the various classi- fications of farm help—which will be .clearly understood by all the parties. concerned, in advance. We want no unpleasant misun- derstandings to develop in this highly-important work. Our food supply is-at stake. _ SYDNEY’ PICKLES, : President, District A, “.
