q e As soon as the boy becomes wage
Garner and breathes the free air Of the
workshop or Of the streets the Sunday
school ceases to interest him. and with
out something to bridge the interval be-
tween school life and the educative and
religious associations he would either be
lost or spoiled before these could throw
their meshes around him. Every COM
pany must be connected with some Sun
day school or local Christian institution.
1t cannot be stated too emphatically that
the Boys brigade is a religious move
ment. 1t may not always be brandlshed
before the eyes of the boys in 50 many
words, and it would not be true to the
type Of boy religion to Overadvertise it.
but at the bottom the Boys brigade ex-
lists for this, and it is never afraid to
confess it.
''What is known in the United
States Infantry Tactics as physical drill
plays a leading part in brigade work
and the governing body may be trusted
to reduce the merely military machinery
to the lowest possible minimum. Mem
bers are required to take the pledge,
agreeing to abstain from the use Of in
toxicating liquor, tobacco, profane and
vulgar language, and at all times set an
example Of good conduct to their com
rades and other boys.
One Of the fist if not the very first
brigade formed in this country was or
ganized in San Francisco IN 1889, and
companies were started in Chicago and
Cincinnati about the same time. but
the movement made little progress here
until 1898, almost ten years after the
Glasgow experiment was made. At first
the scheme was adopted by various
churches acting independently Of the
others, and the movement was not made
a general one until recently. Last year,
however, a national organization was
effected, and now all the various com
panies are organized into regiments and
the regiments into the United brigade
As yet there is but little connection be-
tween the scattered regiments, but they
are enrolled with the brigade, and the
rest viii come later on.
There are over /, 600 companies in this
country, embracing over 60, 600 boys
privates, with a. 600 officers A national
headquarters has been established in
Chicago and a monthly magazine start

year 742 companies, with 50, 379 boys

movement. he IS a shrewd Scotchman
who must have been a real, live boy
himself once, and who has not lived
long enough to forget all about it. He
evidently knew just what would catch
the boys. He was helped in carrying
out his idea by Professor Henry Drum
mond who is variously known as
famous scientist, great religious edu-
Gator and Jolly good fellow
The first experiment was made with
a gang Of 50 rough mill boys who
worked in the Glasgow factories, and
who at one time would have regarded a
boy who went to Sunday school as a
milksop. The promise of uniforms and
gums was too much for them to refuse,
and they were organized into a com
pany. The result was surprising. I'm
der the influence Of the military disci-
pline and refined association these young
hoodlums became gentlemanly, well be-
haved and orderly boys They soon be
came proficient in military tactics, and
when they appeared on the streets Of
Glasgow they were SO well received that
it was not difficult to form other com
panies.
The news spread to other churches
and from Glasgow to every part of the
civilized world. All over the British
isles companies were formed in churches
Of various denominations and in time
the new idea had been adopted in Can
ada From there it was carried into the
United States, and in less than four
years it has grown to its present proper
lions. And this is only the beginning
say the enthusiastic men who are advo-
eating its adoption
There has been some opposition, of
course. Mr.. W @. n Foster, who is
the editor Of The Knapsack, the official
organ Of the Boys brigade. says
'Alarmists and peace people have said
that we were training cur church boys
to fight Well, so we are-training
them to fight the devil and his hosts.
training them to fight against vice and
evil IN every form, training them up
into Christian men who viii accept no
compromise with evil save uncondition-
al surrender.
Then look at it in another light.
Suppose war, real war, should come. To
whom could we better intrust our forts
and warships than to men who were
trained in our churches, in coats Of blue
and under the stars and stripes, to carry
Bibles as we'll as guns and to love God
and man?''
The objects Of the Boys brigade,
as stated in the handbook, are as fol
lows.
1T is a religious movement having
for its object the advancement Of
Christ's kingdom among boys Tt EN-
ploys military organization, drill and
discipline as the most stimulating and
interesting means Of securing their at
tention and retaining hold On them
