"Underprivileged" may be shorter, less clumsy, more descriptive than "neâ€" glected and dependent," but that is a matter of little moment. Certainly "poor children" would not meet the case. All poor children are not "unâ€" derprivileged," nor are the "underprivileged" conâ€" fined to poor families. The terms are in no way interchangeable. It is not true that poverty alâ€" ways drives love out of the window. The late J. J. Kelso often described himself as a poor child, but he never failed to pay tribute to the ricnness of the privileges that he enjoyed in the parental home, where there was love and care and training and inspiration. There are childréen from supâ€" posedly rich homes who are underprivileged inâ€" deed, who lack the affection, the guidance, the examplé, that make true homes of less pretentious residences. Amid poverty and riches alike, chilâ€" dren are enjoying the right of childhoodâ€"love, care, guidance, precept and example. Unfortunâ€" ately, however, there are rich and poor homes (in the material sense) where children are deprived of their rights and of their true opportunity. These are the underprivilegedâ€"the neglectedâ€"the deâ€" pententâ€"the term is not material. It is the sconâ€" dition that matters, that should be remedied. It is not a case of rich or poor.

"How many neglected and dependent children have you in the Shelter?" a former Minister of Welfare askd a Children‘s Aid official here. ‘"Not a single one," was the prompt reply. "Once they come to the Children‘s Aid they are no longer neglected or dependent. They have friends, a home, opporâ€" tunity, affection." as this man in this remarkable patriotic work. On such a memorial there might well be a word f6or The (GGilobe, whose consistent support of the work through the years added much to its effectiveness. It may be that "underprivileged" is a long and clumsy word. But it will do until a better one comes along. The big thing is to see that its use Perhaps, The Globe and Mail will consider the deâ€" partmental name as "longer, clumsier and less deâ€" scriptive" even than the phrase "underprivileged child." But the department did notable work for the children. There was nothing "clusmy‘" about the noble results of the work. It turned tens of thousands of underprivileged children into useful and worthy citizens. There should be a monuâ€" ment in Ontario to J. J. Kelso, for it is doubtful if any other single man did as much for his province The (GéH|obe and Mail in one of its editorial notes had the following:â€""Is an underprivileged child anything more or less than a poor child?

Thousands of people have been flocking here in the search for employment. It would be impossible for these people to escape the legal standing of vagrants. Southern cities and towns have evidently urged and encouraged these people to come North. There is reason to believe that they were more or less hustled out of their own towns and pushed along from place to place. Surely it is not fair to place Timmins and other towns in the North in the position of having to deâ€" fray the cost of penalizing these unfortunates. As a matter of fact were the advice of the Attorneyâ€" General to be taken literally, more jails would be necessary at once to house all those who would be given no chance to get back to their own muniâ€" cipalities. In the North at least, it may be taken for granted that the man who is a vagrant in a really criminal sense will not be given chance to move elsewhere. He will be dealt with in strict way. But for the unfortunate, the unwise, the careless, who because of undue optimism or creâ€" dulity in listening to those who paint too rosy picâ€" tures of conditions elsewhere, have placed themâ€" selves in a position where they have no visible means of support and are not entitled to relief beâ€" cause they have left their regular place of resi- dence, jail terms without the option of making their way back to home and friends seems unduly severe. Is it not a better plan, after all, in such cases, to suspend sentence on condition that the accused persons will make their way back to the centre that is responsible for their maintenance. Whatever may be said against the principle Oof: passing along the problem from municipality to. municipalityâ€"and the principle in itself is cerâ€" tainly a wrong oneâ€"the fact remains that circumâ€". stances do alter cases, as the men of law say in their proverb, and there are cases where the only just sentence for some particular vagrant is that of suspended sentence on condition that he or she remove the unjust burden of their vagrancy from a municipality that is in no way responsible. North meant that the people receiving the susâ€" pended sentences had to travel some distance to escape justice. If they went south or east or west again to worry some other municipality there was _some measure of justice in the suspended sentence, | as the tendency was for the accused persons to reâ€" | turn from whence they came. It may be admitted | that the principle is wrong, as the Attorneyâ€"Genâ€" eral suggests, but circumstances alter cases. The plan has been little used in the North but there are times when it seems fully justified. Attorneyâ€"General Conant says that the problem of the transient should not be thrust upon some other municipality, but that each case should be decided upon its merits. If a man or woman is convicted of vagrancy then they should be penalâ€" ized, says the Attorneyâ€"General,. The two stateâ€" ments appear to conflict. A man or a woman may actually be guilty of vagrancy, so far as the law is concerned, and yet not deserving of penalty. For ' example, suppose a‘man listened to the wild stories labout the employment available here, made his ;way to the North, and found the fact to be that ! there were thousands of men here already unable to secure work. It is easy to understand that such a man or woman might find himself or herself reâ€" duced to a position of vagrancy under the law, and yet not be deserving of fine or imprisonment. It is true, thanks to the publicity given the truth of the matter by the weekly and semiâ€"weekly newsâ€" papers of Ontario, that people in general have ample opportunity to know that it is foolish to come North seeking workâ€"that it is really temptâ€" ing the status of vagrancy. Yet no less eminent. a personage than the premier himself suggested some months ago that there was lots of work in the North. It seems rather harsh for the Attorâ€" neyâ€"General to suggest that a man should go to jail for paying too much attention to the premier and too little to the newspapers. MAYORS AND EXâ€"MAYORS It is no credit to anyone that action was appatrâ€" ently secured in the case of the revoking of the occupational rights at the river held by Mr. Walter Wilson. The revoking of these rights would be nothing less than improper confiscation of the property and labour of Mr. Wilson. There is noâ€" thing at this section of the river bank of any value, except what has been placed there and maintained by Mr. Wilson. If the public wish to enjoy the reâ€" sults of Mr. Wilson‘s expenditures and labour, it is only fair that the public should pay the very moderate charge whereby Mr. Wilson hopes to reâ€" coup himself, in part, for what he has spent. Mr. Wilson is not preventing anyone from access to the swimming privileges at the river. He makes no charge for those using the swimming pool. To Kapuskasing Horticultural Society has a very inâ€" teresting new feature at its annual exhibition this week. This is an exhibit of handwork by the setâ€" tlers of the district. The exhibits include rugs, quilts, water colours, paintings, embroidery and other works of skill and art. Some of them are said to be remarkable examples of skill and art. Timmins Horticultural Society this year has exâ€" tended its scope to include a secetion for household science exhibits. Another year it might be well to consider such a department as that sponsored this year by the Kapuskasing society. Such exhibits might prove inspiring and encouraging to the settlers as weil as most interesting to the general public.

Based on a detailed study of the area by the Departmrnt, the paper deals chiefly with the Central Patricia and pickle Crow Mines, which together last year produced gold to the valuse of $3,663,000, and paid $1,450,000 in dividends. Most of the important gold occurâ€" nences discovered to date in the area are associated in some way with iron formation, and the fact that the comâ€" panies have pionsered in the successâ€" ful development of such oreâ€"bodies is gescrikerd by the author as one of the most intoresting featiures of the area.
