LeHeup, Superintendent of Cochâ€" rane Distriect Children‘s Aid. â€" Mr. Macdonald in a most interesting manâ€" nor gave the history of the Children‘s Aid movement from the time it was originated by Mr. J. 4. Kelso, then on the staff of the Toronto World, to the present; 98% of the children whoâ€"are taken care of by the Childâ€" ren‘s Aid prove good ‘citizens; the child who is left to an undesirable parent proves a greater financial reâ€" sponsibility to the country often than the one who is eared for by a proper organization ; he proved this latter by quoting specific eases. Mr. LeHeup told of the various laws in respect to neglected or delinquent children; he spoke of the great power which the law of the land gives the Children‘s Aid â€" Society, showing ~that if a ‘~parent.. . be~: proved â€" to. . be neglecting his child, morally or physically, that suech chila, of under sixteen, can be taken possession of absolutely by the organization and placed im a home of some kind to reâ€" ceive the proper training. He also spoke of the Adoption Act and of the law recently passed to protect the child of an unmarried mother. _ Both speakersâ€" urged the benefit of having a branch here for this end of the Poreupme Camp. There is,, every year, quite an amount of funds eolâ€" lected from this part and needy cases could be reported right to our officials if we had a branch here. An interim commuittee was formed until such time as a branch may be organized. This committee consists of Mr. F. Fell, chairman; Mrs. T. Cahill, secereâ€" tary; Rev. F. Baine, Miss Eddington (Golden City), and Mrs. J.
