A chorus composed of boys and young men from the Brook- Iyn Y. M. C-*A. camp at Gardner Lake rendered several selections. The singing was led by Dr. Zobel, the camp physician, and Messrs. Arnold and Peak accompanied the singing on violin and cornet. A practical address was de- livered by Iirnest P. Roberts, camp su- perintendent, and he heéld the close atten- tion of the audience. The speaker said in part: _ Some people think that boys don't amount to much, but we need to realize the great possibilities wrapped up in ev- ery boy, even though he is a trouble- maker, at time. The boys and girls are watching us and if they go wrong it is often the fauit of father or mother. We little dream what these boys may become in future years, and we should be very careful how we influence them. Let me give you an example of what might be called @ letter from a father to ! a son: “I would be true to those who trust me; T wottld be pure for those who care; 1 would be strong for those Who are weaker; T would be brave for those who dare; T would be a friend to all: T would give and forget the gift: T wonid be| humble: T would look up and love, and {1augh and 1ft” Sometimes the Christian workers are called the come-to-Jesus crowd.
