has been made in the handling Of

years. Prison sentences and corporal
punishment for the young men have
been largely done away with, though
many have Jagged In the march Of

The business men Of Lady smith have

now that property owners have had the
free sheds that had been provided done

charged TO the business men OF Lady

action in providing the free hltchlng
sheds that the farmers have made use

that the free sheds are gone, the loss
Of the hitching barn is keenly telt.

board for all reasonable efforts toward
economy In the handling Of public
money, they certainly went too far In

off all allowance for expenses. How

HOSPITAL APPROPRIA-
TTON NOT A GIFT

A large number Of people do not un-
derStand that the appropriation OF
$4,000 voted to st. Mary's hospital is
not an outright gift. The appropria-
ton voted by the county board is III
the nature Of loan to the institution,
which is in rather poor condition, tinan-
cially. The care of county patients,
whose treatment and care at the hos
pital is paid by the county, is thus
paid for in advance for a long time to
come.

How many OF you men under whose
eyes these words fall, know OF q boy
just growing up who seems 10 have no
ambition; who either goes It J

less Of the things Of tomorrow as he
was of the things Of yesterday.
Are YOU, who know such u boy, too
busy, sir, to take real interest in that
growing young fellow: Don't you
know that what that boy needs rs
much as anything else at his stage III
life is friendly advance from some
body older: that he needs advice not
given as mere advice but quite plainly
from a sincere desire to be Of SER
VICE to him and to his future:
DO not feel that the boys father ana
his mother are enough. God knows
that they try to do their best by their
boy, but the fact is father and mother
have been advising and governing him
all his life and the young fellow takes
it from them as Il matter Of mOnOt-
onouS duty and dull home routine.
When he is Is to Is or 10, he needs
something more: he needs rub from
the world without. and if the rub is
friendly, good-natured and manly all
the better for the boy
Man, the touch you give that boy
acquaintance may mean a good citi-
zen or a bad citizen few years hence.
