the s3e,00O,0 ,0H0 worth of property How much are we spending to pro tect our boys?"
 Y. M. (. \. And Boys Club
 'ontside of the public schools an, the Y. NJ, C. A., the only other insti tuition we have to look after the in terests of our boys Is the Boys club and few paid workers,
 When Grimes Arc Committed
 Prom half past three in the after noon until half past ten at night, Si per cent, Of all juvenile crime Is com, hiitted, We are protecting our chil, dren while they are in school but what are we doing for them after morning until night?' No, but cx. pect us to keep our children in from morning until night?' No, but cX- pect you 10 keep your children in from night until morning, that's all All Of the meanncss l ever learned as boy I learned after sundown.
 Nothing For The Boys
 Every boy who goes into juvenile court and is sentenced to reform school costs s4OO q year. We will pay s4no year to keep boy who is a criminal, but we won't pay S4, or even s4 year to keep q boy from becoming criminal
 Supervision Unnecessary
 We went before the board of fi- nance and asked for an increase of from, ono to ElU for rn1ra,+i,, But it was turned down. The city doesn't think it is necessary to spend $500 to protect and supervise young men and young women, as well as girls and boys. On the different lakes and pools about the city where the young folks go skating, there is no supervision. except possibly in few cases by the man who owns the pond Toys and girls slide down hills under the most adverse and dangerous cir cumstances. The loss of one child would cost the city more money than il would spend in a year in proper supervision.
 The Dental Clinic
 'The dental clinic was badly need cd. Public subscription raised the funds to start the movement. It was shown that there are more than 5000 children who were spreading disease into all the homes of the city because of the lack of dental attention. But this also was cut out of the budget,
 The Costly Administration
 "One person has said that if he had his way he would cut the auditoriums out of school houses and cut out the $30,00 year for the library which has given the people of the city their reading material.
 "The most costly administration is that which promises you the cheapest one.
 Because they can reduce the taxes few mills they don't care if it does come out of the blood of little chill dren. Just so they save a few mills, they don't care about the health and morals of the children. The life, property and health of the commun- jty must be protected or the admin istration is a failure. It is a strong temptation to appeal to the popular clamor of the people to reduce the taxes, but they don't realize that they are taking it out of the lives of Be people.
 Cheapness And The Ballot
 "Whenever I hear about people who would give us a cheap admins | tration I don't reach for my ballot at all, but when l hear of an adequate | then I look for my ballot l want to issue just one warning,-Beware of a cheap admin l istration. Mayor Mitchell, of New York, was criticised because they said he gave them a costly administration, hut he gave full value to the people i The administration which followed was a cheap administration but it was a disaster to the city. It was q cheaper administration and it was q poorer administration.
 II am not criticising anybody" said | he minister, possibly the men in of tice are doing the best they can lln- Ter the circumstances but l want to warn you against a cheap administra- .ion."
 Miss Caroline E. Bartlett showed some lantern slides of the New Brit lin Fresh Air camp and made an ap- peal for funds for the City Mission, \ special collection was taken for the mission.
