Mr.. Lehigh was forcefu in bringing TO
light the many advantages and oppor-
tunities awaiting the live boy and
equally az foreeful in telling OF the
many temptations and their unheard OF
subtiety. Men and parents were urged
to set the right example, for, as the
speaker said. it has been found that
the boy will do what his father does in
most cases. After the close Of the ad-
dress luncheon consisting of sand
witches, cake, doughnuts and coffee was
served and William Clubb, who served
