Arthur Ross Was Tipsy, so Did Net Care. How would you like to sleep night on a pile of straw, just feet away from a bear ? * Ng doubt you would not, but this is what Arthur Ross, a. young Ger- man, a strangef in the city did on Monday night. He had been drinking all two for the night, He secured an entrance to the stable at the rear of the street car barns, where the bears, which sperid the stimmer at Lake, Ontario park are kept. Ross was just two feet away from the big bear of the party; had he been just a little closer to the cage,the bear would have been able to have got hold of him, and no doubt would have tore him to pieces. However, thesbear was unable to get at Ross, and the latter had a good night's sleep, but a rude awakening, as when he opened his éyes two mem: bers of the police force were on the scene, and he was walked to the pol ice station. He was charged with' being drunk inf the police court, but when the charge was read out against him, he strong- ly denied it, although later on he ad- mitted having taken a few "drinks earlier in the evening. He was fined two dollars and costs, or twenty days. Robert Burns, or "Bobbie" as he is called, was also drunk, He was taxed {one dollar and costs, or ten days. 1 ae His Lady Clerks All Wed. An up-town grocer savs that if the marriage. rate in Canada is decreasing, | as reported, the people in his end of ithe town are doing their share any- way. He declares he cannot keep his lady clerks, four of them having left him to get married within the last few years. . \ tt To Speak on License Reduction. i -- The Monday evening Bible class was held in the Y.M.C.A. bidilding as usu al.

Thteéresting Story In wie Life or Late] The Ofkney Herald, one of the most populas Hjoutnals in the north of Seotland, records the death of James Yetired merchant, in age of eighty-three Hourston, a Kirkwall, at t years, It is interest th note that deceased, as a lad, entered as an apprentice in the business of the late George Rob- ertson, merchant, tobacco, and snuff manufacturer, father of B.

Skelton, of Queen's, gave an address and spoke on the subject of the prevention of juvenile delin quents. His address was very pointed and suggestive. He said that we had not the overcrowded and other con- ditions which large cities had to deal with, but still we can greatly help to benefit the lot of our children. Juve nile delinquency was mostly due to lack of training of children for their work, There is room for tremendous improvement in the enforcing of the laws of compulsory education, and preventing premature child labor, and of dealing 'with the eareless parent. The school sheuld prepare the child to make a living. Prof. 'Skelton went on to say that it is in the years between twelve and fourteen we are doing the least for the child, when we should be doing most. Germany, perhaps, gives the best ox> ample of the continuation of school training between twelve and folirteen. The public libraries, in Canada, are doing a great dead along this line. But it is got only along lines of work we need to advance, but also in lay. We, today, are ceasing to provide amusement whenfigovs and girls are being turned oul into the streets, with the result that amuse ment ix being commercialized, by the cheap theatre, dance hall and the saloon. The means for meeting the demand for healthy, active play, of course, depend somewhat upon situs- tion and peculiar circumstances of the place. But, physically, efforts should be made to provide parks and play grounds. Wa must realize how the mauguration is being shuped by the play, apd stiive, in a moderate and broad-minded way to uplift the thea tre. We have to meet the desire for social intercourse, and not have our young people go to questionable places 4 In closing the professor said the Boy Secaut movement is doing a great deal among the bovs, but 'we are do ing practically nothing for girls. The church and the Y.M.C. A. are doing good work among their don't seem to theet the ne working factory boys. Our fraterni- ties might open their rooms club rooms nightly, and so meet the needs of the men.
