Now the other brother re ceives no unemployment social se curity, because he is never idle. Why can't his compensation checks be turned over to the brother that works only part time, as long as he is suoDosed to help out. The same applies to other steady work.

Let their compensation checks be turned over to all part-time workers, women as well as men. If this went into effect, the sick person mentioned in this letter would be able to get along without trying to get relief or living with his father. In other words, relief would not be needed and people would feel better. OBSERVER. KEEP SMILING Whether your age is young or old Or the weather is warm or cold, Remember, a smile is so sweet to behold.

It cannot be bought nor can't be sold, A smile is greater than silver or gold Or the wealth this world can hold It cheers up the hearts of the young and old Because it doesn't grow old. New fashions may come, but away they go, And fads for a short time Leguile, But we can always look stylish and smart By wearing a jovial smile. THOMAS PUGH.

A Lesson For Aspirants Hearing and seeine him. the thine is explained. First of all the presence is confident and assured, without being bumptious or assertive. His mobile face helps convey the content of the song, and occasional gestures also, to which we are not all of us accustomed, add effect. The way the moutlris used, the relaxation and the freedom, are lessons for every aspiring vocalist, and claim re spect from those who do not themselves attempt to make concord of sounds, but are respectful and ap preciative when a fine voice brought under control, is pouring forth.

He has just enough of the dialec tic to be intriguing and piquant although his English diction is clear and not lacking in those graces of vowel sounds common to most Eur opean languages, and calculated to broaden the scale of a voice and make tonal emission easeful. The program illustrated various periods, from the Italian of the 1600's and early 1700's, to a touch of the French school, a number of songs in the vernacular bv Stoiow' ski, and that particular delight of average audiences, the iboufie Fac totum song, still going 6ver the air, heard inside concert enclosures, and inviting, even without the stage set ting by its excellent buffoonery.

By OFFERS RELIEF SUGGESTION Editor, Times-Leader, Evening News: A few days ago I read in this column about a sick man, the father of two children, who just came out of the hospital, who is out of work and who was refused relief. He was told to break up his home, take his wife and children and go to live with his father, aged 65, who has a job which provides just enough to support three in his home. I think it is downright shameful and those that told him to do that should bow their heads in shame, as well as everyone else connected with the case. What is the country coming to? No wonder the population is dwindling. Parents raise their children and give them homes until they get married; then when the young people have hard luck they are told to go home and live with their parents, grand-children and all.

That certainly beats everything. If this 65-year old grandfather owned properties and had money in the bank I would take a different view of the situation. But, if that was the case, I do not believe the son would have put his letter in the paper. In regard to the security solution. Supposing there are two brothers, one of whom works steadily year in and year out; the other works at construction work six months of the year, so when idle he draw's his compensation checks for thirteen weeks if he has earned that much.

Then he is through. So, if he cannot yet any more work, he seeks relief as outside work is slack in the winter months. Naturally they Gorin Finds In Season's BY WESLEY E. WOODRUFF It was a brilliant occasion last evening at Irem Temple when the annual course of Community Concerts opened, introducing the redoubtable Ukrainian baritone, Igor Gorin. Impressive in appearance and manner, eloquent with voice and gesture as he is, the throng was brought into sympathetic hearing, being somewhat acquainted with the struggles and sacrifices of this accomplished singer.

He has been described as a Figaro and a Rigoletto without peer and a reigning favorite among millions of radio listeners, a sensation in the Broadway Melody of 1938, and long a favorite with opera goers in Europe. The doubtful days that summoned all his courage arrived when the disturbed state of Europe turned him to these shores. He had some trepidation lest the American musical gusto prove less than he had been assured. But though he did not secure a launching easily, nevertheless once he had been well introduced the future became certain. He has been able to believe and to say that musical appreciation on this side now outreaches that of much of Europe, and promises to make the American musical tradition high in comparison with the remainder of the world.

While we have been engaged in contemplation of our own idols like Eddy, Thomas, Tibbett and certain others also, Gorin has also touched C. B.

SIDEWALKJOB IS OPPOSED BY II Join Building Contractors and Trades Council In Protest to Proposed WPA Project Wyoming Valley Insurance Exchange has Joined the Building Contractors Association and Building Trades Council in placing itself on record as being opposed to Wilkes-Barre City sponsoring a WPA project to lay concrete sidewalks in front of properties whose owners will pay for only materials used. A. S. Galland, secretary of Wyoming Valley Insurance Exchange, reports that the association protests the "long continued coordinated series of attacks upon private business conducted for a profit by those who advocate the conduct of business on a so-called 'at cost' basis as against business methods based upon an attempt to make an honest profit through which wealth of this nation has been accumulated." The protest is couched in the following statement: "The Exchange notes that the offer of the City of Wilkes-Barre is a direct invitation not only to those who cannot afford to build sidewalks, but to those who can well afford to build them all at the expense of the public treasury, resulting in the use of public funds for private purposes. "The Exchange believes that the foregoing offer as made by the city authorities constitutes a direct attack upon all business based upon the motive of profit and is also an attack, though probably unintentional, upon the American way of doing business.

The Exchange calls attention of all business people and of those whose salaries and wages come from established busines to the various attacks now in process throughout the country, many of them sponsored by governmental authorities, and directed against all business for profit "The Exchange notes that every business is in some form being increasingly subjected to this type of un-American competition and expresses the belief that the idea of conducting business on an 'at cost' and non-profit basis in any business is definitely harmful to the business structure and prosperity of the country and that it presents a form of attack which if further continued must ultimately destroy American business as our people have known it, to the ultimate ruin of us alL "Resolved that copies of the foregoing statement be filed with the City of Wilkes-Barre, the various organizations having to do with construction operations. The Wyoming Valley Chamber of Commerce and the Merchants Association." D. L. Edwards is president of the Exchange. Other officers are: First vice president, S.

In all of these, so widely varied, there was a fine introspective gift, emotional power and characterization. There are those, a few, who must enjoy exquisite technic In singing, and proper uses of ornament, and these will not demand ultimate power, or the thrills that come from dominating tone of crimson glory.

But generally. people are compelled by tone itself, and are not too likely to be capricious about the polish and the niceties. However, this may be, Gorin gives to both tastes. The tone has wide range, though one might not think it so broad as the vocal organ of a De Reszke or even of Tibbett But it is ample, has fervent warmth, and is easily fluent in the lower ranges, what one might call deliehtfullv rpcltahlo And rAae- siirine.

Phil "THE trend to apartment dwelling is noticeable in the Wyoming Valley just as it has become a subject of considerable discussion elsewhere over the country.

What to do with huge mansions constructed along principle residential streets in Wilkes-Barre city is a pressing problem to those dependents of family heads who erected this type of home in the golden age of community activities. They are tremendously expensive to heat, keep clean and maintain. Taxes are out of proportion to advantages offered. The financial standing of original builders is not always passed on to those who later occupy these places. So gradually they are going on the market for a small portion of their former value.

Recent sales of large dwelling properties show a market price much less than assessed valuation. In other words the land value of sites is about all owners are getting for these once popular and. expensive mansions. JN some cases the mansions themselves are torn down to save taxes. Their sites become parkling lots or are given over to other uses.

But an encouraging sign of the-times is that many of these oldtime too commodious residences are being remodeled to apartment use. They serve a twofold purpose In then new capacity. In the first place the buildings are saved at per. haps an increased valuation in sup-port of pressing city taxes. Eecond- Charles Murray, deacon, and Rev.

Dies Of Injuries Northeast, Pa, Nov. 25. Injuries suffered in an automobile accident two weeks ago caused' the death yesterday of Danford R. Cushman, 91, oldest lawyer in Erie County and a resident of here for 71 years. the home of the first apartment house or tenement Rome, in the time of Augustus, is reported as having had but 1,780 one-family dwellings as against 44,000 apartments.

TN the heyday of the Roman Em-1 pire, so history records, apartment houses had gradually risen to such heights that Augustus limited their height to 70 feet Later, under Trajan, the limit was reduced to 60 feet The foundations and ruins of some of these "swell" apartment houses of ancient Rome have recently been excavated by Mussolini as an attraction to modern tourist trade. IN America, the cliff dwellings of 1 the Southwest were the first apartment buildings; the pueblos, still occupied today, belong to a second period of American 'apartment More closely approaching the modern apartment house were the great masonry structures such as were found at Pueblo Bonito in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico. Centuries ago 1,200 persons lived in the Pueblo Bonito structures. How recently the apartment Idea has appealed to -Americans was shown in the report About ninety years ago the Pontalba Mansions became the first apartments occupied by the aristocracy of New Orleans, and in New York City the famous Spanish Flats were erected in 1882 at 59th street and Seventh avenue where they remained until about twelve years ago. Sodality Dance At Parish Hall PARTING SHOTS if ly several families, content and comfortably accommodated in modern living quarters, take the place of the few who formerly occupied them.

Not long since the writer after a discussion on the sibject took a precise poll of the number of people living in many of these oldtime mansions on South River street They averaged just two and a half family members living in them. "THIS increasing trend toward 1 apartment house dwelling was revealed in the larger cities of the United States, at a recent conference of leaders of the building construction industry in Washington. "In the past eighteen years, for every 100 one-family dwellings erected in the larger cities of the United States, 87 families have been provided for in apartments," says a report of this conference. Official figures used in the report covered 257 largest cities of the country, Wilkes-Barre included, containing more than a third of the country's total population.
