Social service workers will have great demands to meet. Money problems will be threatening ilike to the indigent and the pros- perous. Thrift is enjoined among persons of average incomes.

The British gov- srnment anxieties will free many but there will be encouragement in he attitude of Canada, Australia and South. Africa where the winter will prove prosperous. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of unusual per- plexities. Care in looking after prop- orty is imperative. Correspondence should be conducted cautiously. This applies to love letters as well as to business communications.
