Making Tomorrows
=UJorld=
By WALTER WILLIAM* LL D
London, Eng
land. “An Act
to provide for In
surance against
Loss of Health
and for the Pre
vention and Cure
of Sickness, and
/f f o r Insurance
Against Unem
ployment”
such is the com
prehensive title
of the most am
bitious measure
for social reform
yet attempted in
Great Britain. It
will make over
the United King
dom, declare the
Liberals and
their allies, who
ft
enacted it into law. It will ruin the
nation, assert in public the Conser
vatives. who opposed its enactment.
In private all parties appear commit
ted to acceptance of the general prin
ciples of the National Insurance Act,
as it is popularly called, though as to
seme of its practical workings there
is fierce contention. It does not ap
jerr probable that the act will be re
pealed, though it will doubtless —to
quote Sonar Law, the Conservative
leader—be “drastically amended,” if
his party, turning out the Liberals,
is placed in power at the next general
election.
The insurance act became a law De
cember 16, 1911. It was a government
measure presented and supported by
the Liberal government. “Such a
scheme," said Worthington Evans, M.
P., one of its most vigorous critics,
“could never have been brought in
cept by one with the pluck of Mr.
Lloyd-George, and with the help of
those connected with insurance.” In
many respects the original measure
was crudely drawn, showing the marks
of haste in its preparation. Some of
the crudities have been corrected by
supplementary legislation.

a week are insured without cost to
them. Contributions are not paid by
the workman during sickness or unem
ployment and cease entirely when he
reaches the age of seventy years. The
act makes it illegal for the employer
to deduct his own proper contribution
from the worker’s wage; he must de
duct only the worker’s share. A spe
cial provision modifies contributions in
cases where employers maintain their
workpeople in sickness. Men and
women of all ages up to sixty-five
years are treated alike in respect to
contributions. Insurance cost is no
more at forty years of age than at
sixteen. The age handicap, necessari
ly imposed by private insurance com
panies, is entirely absent from the
British scheme.
What are the benefits?
The member of parliament from
Northampton, H. B. Lees Smith, and
the managing director of a great
wholesale establishment of London,
Wilkie Calvert (brother of Dr. Sidney
Calvert, professor of chemistry at the
University of Missouri), summarized
these benefits:
Sickness and Other Benefits.
The workman pays eight cents a
week or less. His benefits are the
same whatever he pays. These bene
fits include free medical attendance
and free medicine, sickness benefit,
disablement or invalidity pension, ma
ternity benefit, sanitarium benefit.
Free medical attendance and free
medicine are provided to the worker
who becomes ill. This provision has
been sharply attacked by the British
doctors. The sickness benefit varies
in amount. Ordinarily it is $2.50 a
week for men and $1.75 a week for
women for 26 weeks. Sickness bene
fits cease at seventy years of age,
when the old age pension becomes
payable. If sickness continues long
er than 26 weeks, $1.25 a week is paid
during the remainder of the sickness,
however long it may be. Provision is
made for certain reduction in benefits
when members are in arrears with
their contributions, but no one is sus
pehded from medical, sanitarium and
maternity benefits until more than 26
weeks in arrears. Insured women,
married or unmarried, and the wives
of insured men, whether insured or
not, receive a maternity benefit
$7.50 in addition to sickness benefit,

and relief from payment of c°
tions. It is estimated that when the
scheme is fully at work a million
mothers in Great Britain will each
year receive this benefit at a cost
to the nation, on this accoun
alone, of $7,500,000. Under the sana
torium benefit the state Provides Wr
free treatment and care,in sanatoriums
or at home, of persons who contract
tuberculosis. The insurance commis

THE VILAS COUNTY NEWS, EAGLE RIVER, WIS.
“Anything which keeps the work®
in good health and good heart,” sai<
Mr. Smith, “which relieves him fron
the necessity of working when he it
physically unfit work and frees bin
in the case of illness from worry as t<
the future, must increase the efficiency
of labor. In no way can this be dom
so cheaply as by a scientific system o
insurance such as the act provides
The increased efficiency of the worke
will be far in excess of the total cos
of insurance under the scheme. A
employers pay only a small part of tht
cost, it may be anticipated that they
will in the long run receive benefit
far out-weighing their contributions.
Relieves Undeserved Poverty.
“In judging the act,” continued Mi
Smith, “you must not consider it ai
a final measure. It is only a start—
though a good start —in the campaigi
for establishing a minimum standarc
of living and comfort below which n<
Briton shall fall, unless it be througl
deliberate fault of his own. To prop
erly judge this act you must regard 1
as part only of a wider program so:
dealing with the preventable causes o
poverty and unemployment and rais
ing the standard of living for the work
ing classes in this country. Poverty
and unemployment have existed an<
still exist in every country and unde:
every form of government. Like dis
ease and death, they cannot be wholly
banished by act of parliament The
insurance act strikes at certain causei
of poverty and unemployment whicl
are preventable. In conjunction witl
the workmen’s compensation acts, the
old age pensions act, the public healtl
acts, and the factory acts, all measures
of social reform, which seek to make
tomorrow'’s w’orld better than ou;
world today, the insurance act endeav
ors to remove poverty and distress due
to accident, sickness, infirmity, ok
age, insanitary workshops and un
healthy dwellings. It attacks the slun
owner, penalizes the sweater anc
makes the health of the people tht
first care of the state. It lays broac
and firm the foundations of a new so
cial policy—a policy of mutual help
and good will among all members oi
the community, based upon a recogni
tion of the fact that the undeserved
poverty or undeserved unemployment
of the humblest member of society is
something which closely affects ths
general well-being of the state.”
And Mr. Calvert, who represents not
a Liberal-Labor constituency, but the
city which employs labor, gave em
phatic assent.
270,000 Get Sick Benefit Weekly.
Some things are certain in regard tc
the act’s workings. About 15.000.00 C
persons in Great Britain and Ireland
are now insured against sickness,
when before the act there were about
6,000,000. The act raised the first year
$130,000,000. Of this amount the work
men contributed $55,000,000, Twenty
thousand doctors are employed to give
free medical treatment and nine thou
sand chemists —who are the British
druggists—furnish free drugs, pre
scribed by these doctors. To the poor
est workingman is given the same
medical treatment and the same pure
medicines and drugs as the richest
duke t_<m afford. About $25,000,000 has
been paid during the year to doctors
and $5,000,000 to chemists. Sickness
benefits are paid weekly to 270,000
workers. The men get $2.50 a week
and the women $1.75 a week, because
they pay less. z
Maternity benefits amounting to $2,-
500,000 have been paid. The birth
rate has at least not been discouraged.
For tuberculosis sanatoriums has been
set aside $8,000,000. Twenty-five thou
sand workmen have been treated un
der the act, 13,000 it sanatoriums.
These are the figures, bit for the real
facts as to the -benefits brought by
the aet one must note the changed
conditions in the workingmen’s homes,
see the cures wrought, the shadows
lifted. No man or woman in the
United Kingdom need lack, under this
act, insurance against sickness, unem
ployment or the unmerited poverty
which, to the underpaid, so frequent!)
comes with old age.
But is this not queer business for a
great' empire?
L,et the best-hated and best-loved
statesman in Great Britain, the author
of the national Insurance act, David
Lloyd-George, make reply:
“Adds New Glory to Empire.”
“Since 1908 a when we had old age
pensions for the first time, we have
had a great empire for the first time
taking a direct interest in the condi
tion of those aged, those infirm, those
sick, and those broken. The old the
ory was that this was beneath the dig
nity of an empire. The concern of an
empire was to see that the machinery
of human slaughter was perfect. That
was the concern of an empire. To tai
the food of the people, that is think
ing imperially; but to heal the sick
to feed the hungry, these are thoughts
fit only for a parish beadle. There was
a great emperor once who added tc
the luster of his fame by visiting the
wounded after the battle. Now we
have got this great British empire foi
the first time walking the hospitals
visiting the sick, inquiring how the in
firm are getting on, helping them tc
mend and curing and assisting them
You ask me if this “is not queer busi
ness for a great empire. Why, it is
adding a new dignity and glory to the
British empire. It is the beginning ol
a new era in the history of imperial
ism, the newest imperialism and ths
best.”
In a certain old Book it may be
read: “For I was an hungred, anc
ve gave me meat; I was thirsty, anc
ye gave me drink; I was a stranger
and ye took me in; naked, and ye
clothed me; I was sick, and ye visit
ed me; I was in prison, and ye came
unto me.”
And of the Great Exemplar of this
high duty of man to man it is record
ed that his empire shall have no end

HOPE TO RAISE LARGE SUM
Millions of Red Cross Christmas Seals
to Be Sold for Anti-Tubercu
losis Work.
Few people have any idea of the
magitude of the Red Cross Christmas
seal campaign. This year over 100,-
000,000 seals have been printed and
distributed. If placed end-to-end
these seals would extend nearly 2,400
miles, or practically from New York
to Salt Lake City. They have been
sent to over 25,000 different agents
and will be sold and handled by an
army of not less than 100,000 volun
teers, including men, women and chil
dren. Millions of advertising circu
lars have been scattered throughout
the country, and so thoroughly has
the advertising campaign been or
ganized that it is doubtful if many
people in the more populous states
of the country will not have heard of
the Red Cross seal and its mission in
the prevention of tuberculosis. It is
hoped that at least 50,000,000 seals
may be sold this-year. The principle
upon which the sale of seals is based
is that every cent except what little
is needed to cover the actual cost of
printing and handling shall be spent
for tuberculosis work in the commu
nity where the seals are sold.
HOW TO TREAT PIMPLES AND
BLACKHEADS
For pimples and blackheads the fol
lowing is a most effective and eco
nomical treatment: Gently smear the
affected parts with Cuticura Oint
ment, on the end of the finger, but
do not rub. Wash off the Cuticura
Ointment in five minutes with Cuti
cura Soap and hot water and continue
bathing for some minutes. This treat
ment is best on rising and retiring.
At other times uge Cuticura Soap
freely for the toilet and bath, to as
sist in preventing inflammation, irri
tation and clogging of the pores, the
common cause of pimples, blackheads,
redness and roughness, yellow, oily,
mothy and other unwholesome condi
tions of the skin.

THOUSANDS OF
AVAILABiyOMESTEADS
Western Canada’s Homestead
Area Being Increased.
The great rush for homesteads
whenever a reservation is opened by
the U. S. government reveals the fact
that there is a great desire on the
part of the American people to get
land. The fact that tens of thousands
are on hand at every opening, and on
ly a few hundred homesteads are
available shows that the avail
able agricultural lands which are
in the gift of the government are rap
idly diminishing. In addition to this
agricultural lands that are of proved
value have advanced in price to such
an extent that it becomes a serious
question to the man with moderate
means who intends to go into farming,
where he shall go. Fortunately there
is yet to be had in Western Canada,
either in Manitoba, Saskatchewan or
Alberta, thousands of free homesteads
of 160 acres each, which may be had,
by the simple process of filing, paying
a ten dollar entrance fee, and living on
It for six months each year for three
years. There is no necessity to make
a long, tedious and expensive journey,
only to find you have one chance in
fifty of getting what you want. Al
though this homesteading has been
going on in Canada for a number of
years, and hundreds of thousands of
them have been taken by hundreds of
thousands of Americans, there re
mains sufficient to last for some time,
and of as good land as any that has
yet been taken up. In fact, in the
opinion of very many, those that are
left are of the best. They comprise
lands that give the opportunity to in
dulge in the growing of grain, wheth
er it be wheat, oats, barley or flax,
but in addition these lands are admir
ably adapted for mixed farming, a
class of farming that is certain to give
better returns than that of all grain
growing. Cattle thrive and fatten on
the nutritious grasses; dairying can
be carried on successfully; timber for
building is within reach, and water is
easy to get. These lands are located
in the park districts of any of the
three provinces; groves of trees in
tersperse the landscape and give it a
beauty that can only be attained in
the more open prairie sections by the
planting of trees. Tree culture by the
way is being carried on to 9 great ex
tent. Besides these free grant lands
there are lands which may be had by
purchasing from railways and private
companies and individuals. These
lands have not increased in price as
their productive qualities and their lo
cation might have warranted, and may
still be had at reasonably low prices
and on easy terms. The crop in West
ern Canada in 1913 was one of the
best of the number of good crops that
that country has raised. Wheat has
been reported with yields of from 30
to 45 bushels per acre, and other grain
with like heavy yields.—Advertise

Household and Mental Order.
Froebel, “father of child-study,” said
that “inward clearness proceeds from
outward order,” and there is truth
enough in the observation to give food
for thought to the careless, untidy
mother and father. Froebel’s saying
was connected, no doubt, with his in
sistence that the child's play and work
materials in the kindergarten should
be taken out in perfect order and so
returned at the close of the exercises,
and Dr. Montessori, the Italian educa
tionist, whose method is working a
change in the teaching of children, re
quires the same thing in her “Houses
of Childhood.'* There must indeed be
a potent influence in an orderly, punc
tual, wisely-administered household,
and there is no question that children
brought up in such an atmosphere do
show clearness in their mental pro
cesses. Fortunately this is an influ
ence which is independent of riches or
poverty and so can be exerted by any
mother.

face needs washing, wouldn’t it be bet
