A y A Wayward Lad To Have a New Start In Life, At a session of the Juvenile Court on Wednesday morning, arrange- ments were made for the handing over of a twelve-year-old lad as a ward of the Children's Aid Society. The lad has been rather wayward, and under the Society's care he will be given every opportunity to make good. The Society will place him in a good home, away from all his old companions... He will be . sent to school, and ina short time there is no doubt but that good reports will be received concerning the lad, who it appears, has not had a good chance in life. his is the kind of work the Children's Aid Society is ever engaged Jn, Throw Off Colds and Prevent Grip.
