We should see to it that in ten or fteen years we have a body of men physically and mentally fit to take care of our natural resources and put Canada in the forefront. The speaker drew attention to the way such big men as Earl Beatty, Lord Byng, Sir` Geo. Burns of `Ottawa and E. R. Wood of Toronto place, a value on boys and see the need for their develop ment and guidance along proper lines. This is the line taken b Kiw- anis Clubs in their boys wor pro- gram. . Theirreal work is preventive rather than corrective. It has been `said that the Bowmanville Camp is a line outlet for Kiwanis boys,- said . Mr. Stanley, but if K-iwanians do the work intended for them to do,` the boys will never reach such a place as the ' Bowmanville Camp. p-He quoted men of much experience with boyseand young men who said that most criminals are boys who were not brought up under proper inuence. -'lln .. cu....1..-- .A.1...... 5.1.: ..`.d .n..; .-.-..`l.

Born in Peel County, Ontario, in 1853, soon after his marriage he went West in the days when it was the Great; Lone Land with only a fringe of population scattered over its immense distances. The story of his trek across the prairies in a Red River cart and by boatto the prim- itive Edmonton of those relatively far away days reads like an epic, and an epic it was. In 1880 the youth- ful argonaut founded the Edmon- ton Bulletin, which at once became an inuential journal and so remains. Such a reputation was but an echo of the dauntless spirit of its found- er, who was also a practical printer and carried lrislittle press and t e with him on his long journey to t e banks of the Saskatchewan. Public life soon attracted `him, serving at first in the original Northwest Coun- cil, and in 1896 he became a member- -of the House of Commons, where he soon-- made his inuence felt asan 'un_comm~on1'isingLiberal. From 1905 to 19_11 he occupied the portfolio of "Minister of the Interior in the Laur- ier Cabinet and took a prominent `part `in the debates in the House, - `where he proved himself to be as `strong advocate of his views and an antagonist to be reckoned with in the political battles of those days. Ever -`alive to the interests of the great "Northwest, he putin force an ad- "*` WU'a__VV|1y. .vanced/ immigration policy that brought ina large influx of settlers. Probably no one knows the Canadian West better than this hardy pioneer, ' whois still a live citizen of his Wes- -tern home and as interested as ever in the welfarewof his native land. `
