It is well for the Canadian people to reflect seriously on the many bles- | sings which attend their every day lite. It is true that there are a great many things in othr national and social life' in which we do not measure up to our ideals. It is ques- tionable whether the time will ever come when we shall have attained a political and social condition in which we shall not be called to the attainment of higher things and be agitated more or less with' discon- tent. Progress is the law of life: dissatisfaction is the mother of progress. It is oyt of dissatisfaction that there is born both the desire for better things and the endeavor to attain them. Possibly we should be thankful to-day for ~ even the things which are not to our liking, for these are the things which bid us to bestir ourselves. To-day Canada is big with hope because there is a larger body of men and women than ever before consecrated to the cause of freedom and inspired by lofty patriotism, who are daily devoting themselves to the advancement of what promises to make not only for our happiness and well-being, but for the happiness and well-being of the world. No one whose soul is not dead in a sordid materialism or unresponsive to the higher things in life can fail on this national Thanksgiving to feel the call to a devout and reverend ac- Fnowledgment before God of a deep and sincere gratitude for the multi- plied blessings which to-day crown the lives of the Canadian people. He appears to have withheld from us no good gift nor to have denied us any perfect boon. YOUTH MOVEMENTS. Normally, Youth and Despair mest only to rebound. But Europe to-day is largely inhabited by a generation of young people, to whom despair, lighted only by' momentary wil! o' the wisp hopes, has become the ac- cepted way of life... Thwarted of their' birth-right, they snéteh madly at pleasure though knowing that it, too, will melt out of their. grasp and leave them alone with hateful real- ity. But, as always, there are a few spirits who refuse to give up, and these are driven together fcr mutual comfort and support and so anothet Youth Movement ' is born. These bands of young hopefuls which have sprung up spontaneously from end to end of the distressful countries are perhaps the brightest ligh:s in an exceedingly sombre picture, a sign of the unquenchableness of the good that is in man. The group in Paris which calls it- self "The Young Republic" is da- scribed as "a friendship of young, democratic Christians, resolved each to work according to his ability in whatever cordition God has placed him to make Christ known to men and to strive to bring about condi- tions of life such that all men may God." The simple sincerity of their relationships and their faith is al- most staggering. They have sufs ficient numbers to ba represented in the French Chamber of Deputies by their léader, Marc Sangier. Party ties are not for him.

Under the Children's Protection | Act of Ontario, a municipality must | cipal shelter or. in an 'approved home," in which case the municipal- ity shall pay 75c per day for each | ward. Kingsten has mo municipal | shelter. Accordingly the city is {liable to the Children's Aid Society, {as the legal guardian of the city's wards, for the maintenance of these | wards at the legal rate. This liabil- {ity the city has now admitted and | Fayments have begun. The Society has constituted the Orphans' and In- | fants' Homes as the "approved | homes," and places the city wards in | (hese two institutions, pending adop- | i | | tion. | But both these homes are fulfilling a much greater mission than simply that of acting as receiving homes for the Children's Aid Soctety. The res- cue work done by the Home Friendless Women ana Children is whether that institution closes its doors or not. Of the eighteen chii- {dren and four adults being given shelter there, only three are city wards. So, too, with" the Orphans' Home.There are at present some forty children there, ten of them wards of the City of Kingston, seven similar wards of the county and the remain- der children from Kingston homes which have been broken up through desertion, dcath or insanity. None cf these latter are chargeable to the city, but are maintained parily by the parent and the remainder by | charity. Here the mother or, as it is in nct a few cases, the father can visit his or her children at will and can watch their upbringing in shel- tered and love-filled surroundings such as would have been denied them ctherwise, In recognition of this most neces- sary service for the welfare and moral health of the city, the council of $500 to each of these institutions. Provision for these grants was made in this year's budget and the council approved and passed both grants in Margh. , But they have never been paid, though, on the strength of tha city's promise to pay, hoth institu- tions have spent this amount for their urgent needs. -In this matter ample by paying without hesitation both grants and per diem charges. The sums voted have heen with- held because the officials discovered that the city was by law compelled to pay for the wards who had been plac- €d in these institutions. Very rignt- ly (from their point ¢f view) they de- clare, "The city will not pay twice for the same service." But a moment's clear thinking will show that it is not at all a ques- tion of paying twice. The city pays for the maintainance of its thirteen wards as the, law demands. What does ft pay for the maintainance, largely charitable, of the other thirty-seven children and four adults belonging to this municipality who are being cared for in these two in- etitutions? Not a dollar has the city pald dor over sivteen months and even the maintainance dues for wards are far in arrears. Manifestly this is a injustice which the citizens will look to their representatives to correct immedi- ately: The payments might well be marked "For Services Rendered."

Gafddn Jubliee To mark the Golden Jubilee of tae Order which is to be celebrated next year, the executive council of The Independent Order of Foresters has produced an interesting souvenir in the form of a handsome, illustrated brochure, which relates to the growth of the order from its original modest beginning to the firmly es- tablished position which it holds to- day. The story of the order is a most interesting one. It shows. how, through the struggles and efforts of the founders and by the loyalty and support of the éarly members, ex- treme difficulties Were overcome and the order was eventually estah- lished on a firm foundation. The Independent Order of Fores- ters was organized in Newark, N.I., on June 16th, 1874. Its objects were the promotion of fraternity, to- gether with a system of life insur- ance benefits. In fact, the desire for life insurance benefits was the reason for the breaking sway from the parent body of the order. Commencing with the system, in 1574, of passing the hat for the widow, it was not long before reor- ganization became necessary and when that interesting personality, Oronhyatokka, became head of the crder in 1881, the membership was $49 and the small body had ligbili- ties to face of $4,000. The brochure briefly sets out how step by step the early mistakes and actuarial difficulties were overcome: finally culminating in the Act of the Farilament of Canada in 1013 whereby the order undertook to maintain reserves for afl its out- standing certificates.
