Project Of Local Youth
Older Boys' Parliament
Aids Refugees Of World
Ey PAUL WILSON
(Paul Wilson was one of two
representatives from Exeter who
attended Older Boys' Parliament
L. Hamilton during the holidays.)
.An anonymous • philanthropist
was so impressed by a project
undertaken by the, thirty-eighth
Ontario Older Boys'. Parliament
to aid the 'refugees of the world
that he donated $100,00 to start
the fund.
This project, under the *direc-
tion of Bill Pollen, Exeter, the
ministel of world service, is one
item on the full program of the
Boys' Parliament, which con-
cluded its 'sessions December 31,
at, McMaster University, in Ham-
lton.
f Organized on a constituency
-basis, the Parliamenthas a to-
kal.of 116 ridings across Ontario.
Boys of many Protestant faiths,
sited Church, Anglican, Pres-
yteria.n, Baptist and E.U.B.
from the ages of 16 to 20, are
either elected or appointed to
represent each constituency.
These boys must be active in
hurch. and boyswork, and must

)si find out, parliament has a

As the term parliament im-
plies, this is a legislative body,
It is not, however, as some peo-
ple suppose, a mock parliament.
The legislation deals with real
issues confronting boys, both in
their participation in church
work, and their personal living.
For example, the finance act
passed by parliament is a very
vital one, because it is almost
the sole source of income for the
Ontario Boys' Work Board, par-
liament's sponsoring body. It
can almost be said that the fu-
ture of boys' work in the pro-
vince depends on this act, which
states: "It is hereby enacted
the millions of refugees through-
out the world, be it therefore
resolved that each member of
this house contribute one dollar
or more per month to the par-
liament world service project,
to be sent to the minister of
world service who will turn it
over to the World Council of
Churches for its refugee pro-
ject." This was the bill that pro-
duced the anonymous donation
of $100.
Other pieces of legislation pass-
ed included a recommendation
that capital punishment be a-
bolished, that free university
education be instituted for all
those qualified, and that the use

In keeping with the final pnr-
pose of parliament, the program
was designed to challenge older
boys to Christian Jiving. The
theme of parliament was "To
Bear Witness to the Truth," In
the Bible studies and vespers,
in the church services, this
theme was constantly before the
members. At the beginning, each
member signed an oath, that he
would be faithful, and hear true
allegiance to t h e "King of
Kings." Thr Dug h this, and
through contact with 100 other
boys, he came to realize that the
future of the world lies in a
Christian society, on a govern-
ment whose members place
above all else, their Christian
obligations.
This is why Boys' Parliament
has such potential in a demo-
cratic society.
