Large Family Is Expensive, But Worth It, Says Mother

Although bringing up a large!

family is very expensive and re- quires a considerable amount of care, Mrs. Ruel McCormack of 222 Grafton Street proves she really deserves the title of “Mother of the Year’’ when she says that if she had her hfe to live over she would ‘‘definitely do the same thing again.” ~—

Mrs. McCormack, who is the mother of 16 children, says “They are a lot of trouble, but worth every minute of it’.

Mrs. McCormack: was chosen the winner of th@&‘‘Mother of the Year’ contest sponsored by the Guardian-Patriot in co-operation with the Capitol Theatre.

The entire McCormack family has been invited to the Capitol Theatre Wednesday to see “The Inn of the Sixth Happiness’. In addition all mothers will be ad- mitted ffee to the show ‘if ac-

companied by an adult son or!

daughter. RECEIVES GIFTS

“The mother of the year” will also receive a number of gifts from vartous Charlottetown mer- chants. “

When asked how it felt to be|

chosen as “‘the mother of the year” Mrs. McCormack replied

that it was ‘very confusing’. “T} | didn’t know my name was even

entered’, she said. ,

Four af her daughters are it

married, they are Mrs. R. A. Dalling, Dartmouth, N.S.; Mrs. James _MacGrygan, Scarboro, Ontario; Mrs. William. Corrigan, Toronto and Mrs. Frank Strain, Charlottetown.

Five other children now re- are Father Ivan McCormack, O.M.I1., Ot tawa; Charles, Denny and Pius in Elliot Lake and Sister Mary Monica. .

MOSCOW (Reuters) — Russia announced Sunday after the first Soviet census in 20 years that its population is 208,826,000 and in-

3,500,000.

The ravages or war, reflected in the older age brackets, . have resulted in Russian “women ‘out- numbering men by 20,800,000. .

The “Russian population was lower 10,000,000 than forecasts made by Western observers on earlier incomplete figures.

WAR TO BLAME

The board blamed the men- women ratio on war but it re- ported that the number of men and women below 32 is equal. It said Russia has the highest mar- riage rate in the world — more than 12 marriages a year for each 1,000 population. ~

Russia also has the world’s lowest death-rate—7.5 per 1,000 population, the board reported.

It said the Soviet birth rate is more than 25 per 1,000 popula- tion and there are more than 3,500,000 more births than deaths every year.

Henry Harm of Moncton, Mari- time onal director of educa- organization, Canadian Congress of Labour, said in an address at the weekly luncheon meeting of Rotary at the Char- lottetown yesterday. .

“Organized labour has had much to do with improving con- ditions under which Canadians now live,” he said as he enum- erated a dozen such activities in- cluding abolishing child labour, workmen's compensation, old age pensions, unemployment in- surance, hospitalization and
