Asked by the Whig regarding matter, Inspector Wyllie gave following statement These children mentioned, were committed by Magistrate Taylor, of Perth, to the Children's Aid Society of Ontario, to be placed in the House of Providence, Kingston The chil dren have been in the home for three and-a-half years, and foster homes cannot be found for them as they are not normal children. Every now and again the Mother Superior has been the Inspector to get maintenance tor these children. The Inspector in vestigated the case and found that the children belonged to Lanark County, and committed as aforesaid I'he Inspector then wrote the Provin cial Department for the particulars of these children, and also for a copy of the Committal Papers These were gent to him The copy of the Committal Paper; which was "duly eigned by the Magistrate read as fol- lows: the the a that copy he at hat the County of Lanark shall pay the sum of $10 per week each towards their maintenance." The amount of maintenance, of course, was excessive. The Inspector, however, could not alter these pi pers, so to open up communications with the County of Lanark, the In- spector in conformity with the terms of the Committal Papers wrote | Lanark sending them a copy of the papers and account in full.

BRITISH WHIG Newspaperdom's "Winning Dailies" peac the (The Only Kingston Newspaper So Honored) We feel sure that Kingston advertisers will be interested in knowing that the British Whig has been seleeted as one of Newspaperdom's "Win- ning Dailies" --and that the selection was made after studying the fea I tures which we believe entitled it to this distinetion. The following rea- srmed the basis of our judgment in the matter sons fi Father | in Kingston editorial FIRST--\We selected the British Whig as our "Winning Daily" because of the general exeellenee of the Whig in news and make-up and efficiency SECOND--RBecanuse it is the only paper in Kingston affiliated with the Au- dit Bureau of Circulations of Chicago. THIRD--Because it has the largest circulation aiid is supreme in adver- tising. Being an evening newspaper in a field where an evening paper is widely demanded, its eirculation must necessarily represent the pur- chasing power of the people of Kingston and the territory of which the city is essentially the ready market place. FOURTH--Because of the typographical appearance of the advertisements and the care which is evidently given in the matter of make-up and po- sthon. FIFTH--Becasse of the carefully planned and mainlained cireulation dis- tribution facilities and continuous effort to have the British Whig placed in the hands of its readers at the earliest possible moment, and vet carrying the latest and most important news. SIXTH--Because the British Whig is in all intents and purposes a real "home newspaper, appealing directly not ondy to men but to the wo- men of the household, who do eighty per cent. of the purchasing of family requirements. SEVENTH--Because the British Whig is recognized by men and women in all paths of life as the standard, competent newspaper of its field. Newspaperdom congratulates the management of the British Whig upon the fact that the Whig is justly entitled to the honor we have given i of being one of Newspaperdom's "Winning Dailies." Less than 200 newspapers in the United States have been given this classification, ac- cording to the acid test applied before making our final decision --NEWSPAPERDOM. © Note.--The above article is copied from the Nov. 25th issue of "Newspaperdom." an influential New York magazine devoted to Rewspapyr work.
