They can be taken home, and the attention and interest of the parents will thus be helpfully drawn to the consideration of the practical information set .forth with a View to assisting boys to which they are best fitted, towards make choice of the life occupation for which they are drawn, and in which they can be eflcient workers, doing their share of the world's work with advantage to the general good and to their own individual welfare. This is educational work of the highest value. It goes directly to the point where there is the greatest need of guidance and help for boys on the threshold of their active life. It makes for efliciency and for well- directed, successful lives. Too often it happens that a boy, on leaving school, drifts in a hap-hazard way. That is the crucial time in his life; and there is a manifest need, in con- nection with our public educational system, of an adjunct such as is now being provided here in Winnipeg in these talks. It has been said that “the curse of our city is that chilâ€" dren can so easily earn money.” Too };;:zcational Committee of the Winni- peg Industrial Bureau and distribut- ed among the boys in the highest grades of the schools, for whose beâ€" line. This would only takes fewV lifie. This would only take a few weeks and the road would be ready for freight and passenger trafiic in four or five weeks at the latest. The Post was informed this morn- ing that work would start in a few days on the ballasting of the Georgian Bay and Seaboard Railway weta a jolly set, gentlem-anly in ev- ery respect and a credit to the Comâ€" pany employing them. The idea is to have leading men in each trade or industw or occupation visit each school and tell the boys about the ,work he is engaged in, what it produces, what wages are paid in it, what prospects it ofiers to an ambitious youth, what a be- ginner should know to make a start in it, and, in a word, with his own occupation as a text to. give a direct practical talk, designed to lead the boys to think for themselves and to realize the importance of choosing their life work wisely, and getting a foundation in school on which to build a secure future. This work does not end with these talks to the boys in the schools. There is a fund provided to be used in securing lectures by men selected by the employees and the employers each industry, and the Public School Board has agreed to provide night classes in technical subjects; Taken altogether, this plan, inaugurated on: 1y a couple of months ago, and now an established adjunct to the public school system in this city, is to be regarded with solid satisfaction as a most important addition to the pub- lic educational' equipment. It is planned with clear-sighted business directness, and contains possibilities of immense advantage to the future willing to render him every ance possible and to give hi1 benefit of their experience." general welfare. ,trades today is that their early edu- fcation was neglected,” says Mr. fWalker in one of these talks, which 1has been reprinted in leaflet form, “and the foundation laid by them :was not the sure foundation, compos- i:ed of arithmetic, geometry, and am- Ebition.” To quote from Mr. Bul- Eman’s talk on lithography and enâ€" fgraving: “Without knowledge you cannot be a good workman, and if you are not a good workman, you and all depending on you are conâ€" demned to the horrible life of the in- efficient, filled with unspeakable irris tation‘s and despair." The closing‘ sentence of Mr. Nield’s talk, which is; one of extraordinary interest in its: setting forth of the work and the op- portunities in the railway shops, is this: ”After having had a number of years’ experience in supervising men and boys, I have always found that the boy who starts in with the determination that he is going to devote his mind to learning the trade will always find many men who are BOULDENâ€"PORTER. A‘ fashionable marriage took place at Cobourg on Monday at 12.30 o’- clock °at St. Peter’s church, Rev. G. H. Bailey officiating.

These talks are set forth in a manner admirably calculated to ap- peal to boys, the unwisdom of not having a trade or profession, and the importance, after making choice of a life occupation, of becoming efficient in it.
