On Monday, J. J. Kelso, chief inspector of the Provineial So-|| ciety, came to Kingston to see what the trouble was all about and to ar- range for a better understanding be- tween the local branch and the city Council. "Tt did not take Mr, Kelso long to yet to the bottom of things and to arrange for calling off the court action which results, because Mayor Richardson, backed by the civic Finance Committee, refused to pay the local branch $717 for the keep of children when the local charitable institutions had agreed to take care of Children's Aid wards in return for the grants made them by the city. Mr. Kelso addressed the Council Monday night on the matter and hoped for a amicable settlement. He stated that Kingston peculiar position in"having so mauy homes here, whieh other places did not have, and being able to arrange for the care of Children's Ald wards. In other places shelters were required as there were not sufficient homes to take care of the children. Aeccord- ing to the statutes every municipal- ity was required to provide a chil- dren's shelter, but the Government has never forced a municipality to erect a shelter. The act states that a municipality shall supply a shelter, but there is no penalty for not doing 80, If is fs correct that the Kingston Orphans' Home and other homes for children are willing to enter into an agreement with the city to care for wards of the Children's Aid, then a great deal of the differences that ex- ist locally can be gvercome, Mr Kelso said. It will be necessary that all wards, good or bad, be taken in, for there are sometimes young girls Prince [who go astray and boys*who steal, but who are not criminally disposed, If all these children can be taken in, then Mr. Kelso said it would be a mistake for the Children's Aid So- ciety to sue the eity, He asked the Coypeil not to be too hard on the society, for it.was simply trying to carry out the law, He was here to try and make peace because he did not believe in going to law when things could possibly be amie- | ably arranged, After talking over matters with the local officers of the society he found that they were ready to meet the city and try and make a settlement, e would, fin company with the mayo¥, vigh the children's institutions here and see if they were willing to care fér §llichildren who need care, i Mayor Richardson, explained that the difficulty had -originated from officers of the local society trying to get the city to pay the homes here $2 a week for wards when the city had its own arrangement with the homes that they would care for the wards. It was necessary to see just where the city stood and the suit was invited." The homes had never re- fused t@ take in the children, bat he found that whereas the Children's Aid consitution called for letting the children out to foster homes within a few months, the city was charged by the local society with the care of some children for three and four years, This was in strict contraven- tion of the society's constitution; The City Couneil did not think it neces- sary to spend $2,000 where $500 Mr. Kelso agreed with the mayor that this keeping of children so long in the homes and charging the city was wrong. He advised the Council to do all it could to help in Chilgren's Ald work and, even to take inter- est in children in the country district hereabouts, for in time boys in the back places who are eriminally in- clined will eventually drift to the sities and give trouble to the author- ities. ' - Mr. Kelso also pointed out that in Toronto the parents of wards of the Children's Aid Society were made to pay for their offsprings' keep when they were earning. "The same might be done hery, This relieved the muni- cipality of a good déal of the cost, Bees go in swarms, fish.in schools; boys in gangs. The gang spirit is not wrong if the gang is right. The Y.

Writing from England to local friends, Capt. James T. Suthérland, quartermaster of the 146th Battal- ion, stated that Capt. Kane and him- self have been strikingly honored by the military authorities, by .héing sent almost immediately after arriv- ing to act as .adjutant and quarter- master, respectively, of the Canadian Training Depot at Shoreham in Sussex. When it is stated that near- ly all adjutants and quartermasters whio go over are given several months to close up the affairs of their hat- talions, the fact that these two of- ficers were selected so quickly speaks well for the reputation they made in the 146th. Capt. Sutherland says in part: "Our battalion is the most wonderful the world has ever seen. Every man is a veteran who has been wounded from one to six times, and who, hav- ing gone through the casualty sta- tions and been completely restored to health, again takes up their train- ing for France. We are both hope- ful of going over with them, and are indeed proud of being connected with such a gallant bunch. "We have men from all the differ- ent parts of Canada, from Halifax to Vancouver, B.C., artillery, engineers, infantrymen, and in faet all the im- portant branches are here. It makes one feel quite humble when one notes the great casualty stripes on the arms of all, and then feels how unworthy one is to be classed with these grand Canadian lads. For my part as lieutenant, T have determined to leave no stone unturned to make' these boys comfortable while they are preparing for their return to the battle line in France, "We are beautifully located over- looking the sea, and it is eertainiy an ideal spot for the casualties fo regain their health and strength. ' "We hear that Col. Low is slated for an overseas (France) command, and hope his wish to go to the front § may be realized, as he is guite anxious to go. It was quite a tug to have to part with one's former comrades, but orders are issued to be obeyed, and we are in the game to make good and. keep up the honor of the old Limestone City."
