SAFETY FOR ALL “Safety for all” appears to be a most desirable slo- gan in this «lay and generation ‘when too many chances are taken by the average ind}vi«,.lual. Increased safety is a demand that should be made by modern industry, as accidents remirted to our Provincial Compensation Board have shown a very large increase in 1923 over the same period in 1022; in fact, each month in 1923 so far has averaged nearly 1,000 more accidents than in 192;. This must give considerable food for thought to management and men. for both employer and em- ployee stand to lose time and money by the preventable accidents occurring in industry to-day. It has been truly said “accidents do not happen, they are caused,” and in many cases it must be apparent that certain conditions or practices are bound to lead to accidents. For this reason those vitally interested in industry in Canada, and that means all of us in the country, should take a share in securing greater safety for all.

The third Provincial Parliament of the older Tuxis boys will be held in Toronto on the 27th, zeal and 29th of December in the Legislative Assem- bly Chambers, Parliament Buildings, and at the same time similar gather- ings will meet in the Province of Manitoba. In each province regu- 1arly representative Tuxis boys be- tween the ages of 16 and 20, have been chosen by ballot from the dif- fprpnt constituencies to consider the problem of work with boys. The County of Grey has been act- ively interested in the work. The boys are divided into two parties, the Advance. party and the Ahmek party. The former party in this county is championed by Mr: Wail- fred Lockhart of Dundalk,' and the latter by Mr. Norman E. Carr of Thornbnry. The different parties selected their respective candidates some time agO and as in the ordinary parliamentary elections, the organ- izations 1n the different localities haw been visited by the camlidates who submitted their platforms to the electors and ['il't'sclltt‘d their claims for support.

I hope that your trust has not been misplaced and that I may live up to what I have said. I assure you that I will put forth my best efforts to obtain for the boys of Grey County all that ‘I can, and hope with your support, to make Boys’ Work boom in this county. Could we not each choose this for our aim for the coming year? “I cannot do everything, but I can do something.
