We are greatly indebted to Manager Guild of the British Whig, who has #0 kindly made the publication of ' this paper possible. It is only right that the Whig should be compensat- ed in the small manner which is in the boys of Kingston's power, name- ly to strive to make this paper the best Boys' Paper in the Domini3n. It is also our wish that the vari- ous Tuxis Squares in the City and e Dominion will co-operate with us in making this venture a huge success.

The Boys' Council has\been tried in nearly every city and town inthe Dominion and United States and has proved immensely beneficial. The formation of a Boys' Coun- ¢il will not only help those in office but it will prove very helpful to tho under-priviliged boy. If the reader will think for a mo- ment the number of boys in our city walking the streets until a very late hour at night, frequenting degraded places in the city, returning home at any hour. Will these type of boys bs a credit or a disgrace to our couatry and our city? Alas, they will be a disgrace. Ask yourself: "Why do the boys do such deplorable things." The answer is very simple, they have no one to give them advice probably, they receive very little ga- couragement and consequently they go without notice in the paths of vice and crime. Can we not help these poor boys and make them honourable citizens? Well you say "What do I care about an under-priviliged boy, I have something else to do besides that."

He resigned his pastorate and took up residence in the worst slum district in the city of Edin- burgh. He is giving his all, his lite and his money for the good of the poor among whom he is living. Af- ter the close of the Great War Gen- eral Foch was being entertained by a city in Belgium.

He went to a little church in the town and in quiet worshipped thé God to whom he felt due honor had not been paid.

The Employed Boys' Brotherhood are promoting a Boy and Boss Ban- quet to be held at the 'Y" next Thursday evening. The event is nov- el and should prove successful. Carleton Place Boys' Conference The firs'. edition of the "King- ston Boys' Own Whig' would be in- complete without the mentioning of the Older Boys' Conference at Carls- ton Place some time ago. The ob- Ject of this conference was to create a better feeling among the, Tuxis Squares in the different cities and towns. The boys were welcomed to Carle- ton Place by Mayor Barclay, who in a few well chosen words told of the wonderful work the Tuxis pro- gramme was doing for the boys.
