Of all the things that have been discovered. about human life. one of the most important is the fact that the period from thirteen to nineteen years of age is one of the most dangerous in the life of the boy. Many boys lose out at this time. and; while their fraining along different lines may have been the finest, somehow their lives do not amount to much. The high soul climbs the high way, while .` the low soul grapes along content ` "with the low levels. ~...,v programme has been. adopted in many `countries in all, . parts of the world, and is being used in Japan, China,- New Zealand, Aus- tralia and other far-away-countries with splendid results. A Canadian minister recently went to Chicago to learn .the latest methods in boys work andthe programme of the Can- adian S.E.T. was.handed him. some- thing which he could have secured at home and which, though originating here. is now in use in_ many of the leading universities in tha United States.

In the afternoon, Mr. Statten addressed the Boys - Council in thevpolice court. His ad-' dresses were listened to with keen interest and it is anticipated that his i.` visit will result in a spurring on of a boys activities in this district during the winter months. " . . . Jazz, of the Jungle - ' Mr. Statten, in the course of his < remarks,.took occasion to express his" opinion of jazz music in general by ; declaring that its tendencies were all in the directionaof the jungle, instead of its being something uplifting. Music could be a great ource of in- spiration to old and youngalike. and he urged his hearers to train them-' selves so that they would appreciate the best music, the best art and- the best in nature. 7 l~r--c c. s.m.
