the great majority of whom were aged 18 to 30 years received a total of 909609 days work or instruction under the plan on the basis of 365 days to a year this works out to ap proximately 2 492 years that is quite a period of time for this peri od 55 000 young unemployed can adians were given a chance to do something beneficial in many cases not only to themselves but tq their country as well the great object of the programme was to fit trainees for employment consequently it is of particular in terest to note figures of those who found employment directly or indi rectly as a result of training when considering this it should be remem bered that a large number of those who received training in some form or another did not take courses which would lead to employment to tllus trate thousands of young men and women took physical mining under the plan physical trabing courses while of great value in restoring health and mojae istnot lead direct ij to employment in the sense that

employment of this number 3282 2 0m men and 1218 women or slightly over 22 per cent lound work rhis would appear to indicate that work can be found by at least some of canada s unemployed young people provided they are equipped by training to do it the belief that this was true was one of the important reasons for the youth training programme terms of the programme did not provide that persons receiving train ing in the various courses must necessarily come from those whose names were on canada s relief rolls the plan recognized that a large number of needy unemployed young men and women in canada were not 0 relief such young people i i frequently in as great as need of i training as those on relief rolls ana training was given to them on the ether hatd the desirabl ity 01 ghine voung

acceptance riding physical education recreation and group activities for both young men and young women in british columbia the plan was provincewide and under direction ot the depart ment of education in quebec it was confined to cities and carried on in cooperation with various private or ganizations the summary will give some idea of the scope of the youth training programme and its achievement thus far in a practical way it cannot however do more than suggest that intangible thing which the plan is doing and wilt probably continue to do increasingly as time goes on it is impossible to measure hope opti mism strength determination and ability in statistical terms one can not estimate character in rows of figures the youth training pro gramme is of value not only because it is helping young canadians to use their hands and brains but because it offers to youth an opportunity to expand and grow in a healthy atmos phere of activity co operation and progress it gives youth what youth desires so eagerly an opportunity to work and thus develop into healthy manhood and womanhood indiana shriner8 to s famed columbia sceftbxd one of the first groups to visit the
