Then followed the Speech from the Throne outlining the work of the Parliament. A bearty vote of â€" thanks was passed to His Honour. The Premier then announced the personnel of his Cabinet. Here, as a hint to older parliaments, may well be inserted a paragraph from the official report :â€"â€" Leader of the Opposition conâ€" gratulates the Premier on his choice and expresses the hope that the same good judgment may characterize all the actions of the Government.""‘ "A Bill reâ€"defining electoral disâ€" trict in keeping with the changed conâ€" ditions throughout the Province,"‘ was duly passed.

"and the business was carried on in a manner that wou‘!d do the greatest credit to any regular Government and Pavliament. The boys issued a sort of ‘‘Hansard"‘ that gives a review of the work acâ€" complished and ‘the fine addresses. The budget showed that $12,675.00 would be necessary to provide for this year‘s work, there being an increase due to the appointment of a field secretary.

The parliament decided to inauguâ€" ate a news service syndicate for the better publicity of the Boys‘ Work movement. Another important resolution passâ€" ed was the following:â€"*‘That we believe that there is a real need in Canada toâ€"day to devélop a stronger national consciousness, particularly on the part of the youth, and that one of the ‘hest ways to accomplish this purpose is through a conference of the Premiers of the various provinâ€" cial Older Boys‘ Parliaments, and that this House should send its premâ€" ier to such a conference if one is held. We are of opinion that such a conferâ€" ence might well be held in Central Canada in the early autumn of 1926."" A recommendation was made that debating unions be formed in the Â¥Yvariâ€" ous counties, or other suitable divisâ€" ions of the Province to bring togethâ€" er the squares of the district and to develop public speakng. It was resolved to coâ€"operate in every y possible with the Social Service of Cangda in h,vent at Toronto. Roy Hardy Member for This District of North Land. their efforts to suppress the cireuâ€" lation of undesirable literature. Efforts were made to increase the number of trained and qualified leadâ€" ers for Trail Rangers, etc. One of the most interesting meaâ€" sures before the House was the * Bill to outline the policy and programme of the Older Boys‘ Parliament. The preamble to this bill says:â€"*‘*‘ Whereâ€" as there is a need ofsobjectifying, in terms of definite activities, the aims and purposes of this Parliament; and whereas it is important that the memâ€" bers of this House shall feel a reâ€" sponsibility for promoting certain acâ€" tivities within their constituencies; and whereas the Parliament should have some definite. plan of serving in a coâ€"operative way the boy life of Onâ€" tario throughout the entire year, be it therefore enacted, etce., ete.‘‘ The enâ€" actments include ‘assistance in the promotion of:â€"Conclave and Grand Camps, Bond Selling Campaign, Bible study examinations, hikes and weekâ€" end camps, local and area camps, provincial leadership training camps, county and district boys‘ work conâ€" ferences, mentors‘ training clubs, election for Boys‘ Parliament, and the Parliament itself. ‘The Member for each district is to meet under the leadership of their Cabinet Minister at least twice during the year, with Cabinet meetings at least once in the year, and that each Member be asked to make a brief monthly report on the progress of the work in his disâ€" trict to his Cabinet Minister. BHach Member is expected to make a fulil report of the recommendations of the Parliament, as far as possible, to the groups in his constituency. Each Member is to assist in securing and maintaining a suitable organization for Boys‘ Work in his constituency. Many points in this bill might be adopted with profit by the regular houses of parliament. A resolution was introduced sugâ€" gesting the extension of the franchise to the C. G. I. ‘P. girls. The House adjourned on several occeasions to hear addresses from proâ€" minent public and professional men, including Hon. N. W. Rowell. The boys were particularly pleased with the kindness and sympathetic attitude of the ‘‘Lieutenantâ€"Governor,‘‘ Mr. S. B. Gundy, President of the Toronto Board of Trade. During the session the Member for this district (Roy Hardy) spoke on several oceasions, paying especial attention to questions in which the North Land is particularly interested. He was also on some of the Commiutâ€" tees of the House.

NJ Produced Perfectly Under Perfect Conditions Wilson‘s FUR BUVER LOSES SPEEGH /WNHKEN WOLVES ATTAGK AIM Thii,nat Least, is the Romantic Story . Bent Out From Cobalt Last Week Man Now in Hospital. Last week The Advance had an arâ€" ticle in which Mr. Jos. Moore, the wellâ€"known oldâ€"time trapper of this district, was quoted as saying that wolves would attack men just before dusk and just betore dawn, but that in the daytime and during most of the night they would not attack human beings. Following this artiâ€" cle, there came a very romantic story from Cobalt, and no doubt this story will be given the widest publicity. . It will give another flip to the ‘‘wolf"‘ yarns. It is much more clever than the usual ‘*wolf‘‘ yarn and has much more interest to ordinary folks. It is the kind of story that will be very vreedily devoured by the Hearst papers, for instance, and by journals of the type of The Utica Saturday (GHobe. It will also be ‘‘meat‘‘ for The News of the World‘‘ once it gets across the ocean. The following is the story as given in despatches, dated Cobalt, and it is submitted without prejitdice or preâ€" ference, and with the idea, as a popuâ€" lar humorous paper phrases it, that you ‘‘Judge for yourself.‘‘ Here is the despatch :â€" f ‘‘Dumb from fright as the result of being attacked by a pack of wolâ€" ves, north of North Temiskaming, Thursday evening, a Toronto fur dealâ€" er, named Benison, is in hospital at Cobalt, slowly recovering from the shock of his experience. According to members of the party that brought him in from North Temiskaming, Benison was on his way into that place with a load of furs and a dog team. The howling of the pack was heard by him and he at onee tried to speed his dogs up. However the wol!lâ€" ves gained steadily and finally Beniâ€" son was cornered. He shot four of the animals and drive the remainder of the pack, which numbered about twenty, away, but not before they had killed .all but one of his dog team. Hospital authorities have not yet been able to secure any details from Beniâ€" son, owing to the fact that he has not yet recovered his power of speech.‘‘ MATHESON BOY HURT BY HORSES THAT KICKED A Mathceson boy received injuries some days ago in an odd_ accident The boy was driving a little sleigh drawn by his dog, and the sleigh in some way or another slid under the feet of a team of horses standing on the street. The horses were naturally startled and kicked out, the boy being struck in the face by the horses hootf‘s. The lad who was Teddie, the little son of Mr. Harry Johnson, was rushed to the hospital. There it was found that the injuries though painful were fortunately not at all/ serious, and the lad will not be disfigured or suffer long from the accident.
