CITIZENS. STORMED THE CHILDREN'S AID (Continued from Page 1.) Bociety would be able to get along nicely. Loud applause from the citizens | protesting against the proposed ex- | penditure greeted the remarks of Mr. Nickie, . s {the Mayor Richardson Speaks, Mayor Richardson reviewed the events of the past few weeks in re- gard to the steps taken by the society to. collect money for the eare of wards and his action in the matter. He said Inspector" Wyllie had com- plained that he could not @et a place to keep his "kiddies." Each year the City Council gave a grant to the so- ciety. This year a grant of $300 had been passed by couneil. There was no body of men in the city better dis- posed or took a more kindly interest in the question of saving young citi- zenship than the mémbers of the City Council. Arrangements had been made for the care of all wards of the society, but a demand had been made on the city to pay out a big sum, in spite of the fact that the arrange- ments were working out satisfactor- ily. "The grant to the society for this year has not been paid yet," added his worship," and it will not be paid until this matter has been cleared up." (Loud applause and cheers from protesting citizens.) Continuing, Mayor Richardson said [that some over-zealous person had de- manded that the city provide a shelt- er and maintain it. The speaker and Ald. O'Connor, in council, had enter- ed a protest. The city, in addition to making the grant had provided the inspector of the society with an of- fice, and everything possible was done by the city to faéilitate the work of the society. Members of the police force gave their services to the so- ciety. to the city was for $514, with the de- mand that it be paid. Then an amended bill for $717 was presented. In council the speaker had protested against the payment of the account, pointing out the arrangements which had been made for the care of the wards. If the city could keep the wards at-a smaller cost there was no reason why the city should be loaded Up with extra expenditure. (Ap- plause.) The speaker had also asked that the city auditor be appointed to audit the books of the society. The present audit was not a satisfactory one, In these days men must be above suspicion. He did not for a moment hint that there was anything wrong, but insisted on a proper audit. "I recognize the good work the so- ciety has been doing, "but I am sur- prised at such idiotic action on the part of the society," said Mayor Rich- ardson, and his remarks were greet- ed with loud applause. He also stat- ed that the entire trouble, as far as he was able to ascertain, was between the institutions and the inspector Miss Machar asked Mrs, Strachan, who is identified with the Orphans" Home, if there had been any trouble, and the latter stated that as far as she knew there had been no trouble. The Orphans' Home had been accept- ing wards between the ages of three and twelve years. The president said that all the so- oiety asked was that the city provide for the care of the 6hildren. The society did not desire to have trouble, Suffered From Severe Headaches 3 -- . cnn dM OR.

He had never heard anything about a proposition to spend $30,000 for a shelter at any meeting of the society. There was no eity the size of Kingston but what had a shelter. Kingston, he declared, stood alone in lack of interest in the work of the. Children's 'Aid Society. The society had worked single handed] trying to solve the problems that | came before it, and the task had not Leen found an easy one. The society did the very best it could under the circumstances, and with the money placed, at its disposal Some of the wards could be ced in homes, but there were some [who could not. He had particular [reference to girls found walking the streets. He com-| plained that the recent deputation! that waited on the City Council ask-| [ll ing for the payment of a grant to the society received very little satisfac-| py tion. { Rev. a i Mr. Fairlie said the auestion |B of a shelter had been under discus- | of sion for twenty years. = Provision Was Madg.
