 Commander Pctts stated that probably the most important work 10 be accomplished by the post will he the work with the boys of tho city, The post has adopted Boy Scout troops and 1t is planned 10 make the coming year a very active one for the members of it.
 The post also plans 10 take up an. other phase Of boy work. A com mittee has been appointed 70 act as a "big bro'her' body to delinquent boys,
 Commander Petts calls attention to the fact that there is an increas- ing number of boys in this city who are appearing before the juvenile police court for offensas. They are placed on probation rending on their good behaviour In many cases these boys break the rules laid down for them and the ultimate result is that they are sent 10 reformatorits as punishment,
 It. will be the work of the con- mittee appointed, 10 take these boys under It's wing, to aid them 10 meet the probation requirements and to give them the opportunities which other boys have had to be good citi- zens, This, in the opinion of Com. mander Petts, is an important work. It is also planned to take boys of this kind before they are in trouble and give them the opportunities to keep away from temptation and from police court. The post com- nittee will be unable to take many, hut the plans call for four or five boys as q. start,
