One December evening, and,
in the' basement of a church in
Glen Ellyn, Illinois a group of
boys were forming a new club. It
was an important meeting. Yet,
no one present that night in
1937 realized how important it
was to become.
Had you been there you
would have seen twelve boys
sitting in a circle facing a table,
It was the closing part of the
meeting and a velvet cloth
covered the table on which three
interesting objects had been
placed - a sword, a lamp shaped
like a torch, and an open Bible.
The club leader, a young
college student had been leading
the group in games and contests
and now he was telling a story,
"The Story of the Torch." As he
spoke, the sword, the torch, and
the open Bible on the velvet
covered table suddenly began to
have a new and exciting meaning
for every boy in the circle.
"The Story of the Torch"
tells of olden days in Scotland
when torch runners would warn
the countryside of an
approaching enemy. It is a story
of adventure and daring, of
deeds done for the king. As he
began to end the story, the
leader suggested that each boy in
the room could be a torchbearer,
too - carrying the light of the
Gospel to the world.
As he pointed to the objects
on the table, the leader

All of us have so many happy
pictures to hang in our minds
that it is a shame and a sin to
clutter it up with the other kind.
And the great thing is that
there is always, room to hang one

Then too there's only one
rule for choosing these pictures
of the mind and it is set in the
memorable words from the Bible:

The newly formed YACMR
organization (Youth Across
Canada for the Mentally
Retarded) were told their
volunteer recreational work is
one of the most effective ways
to reach mentally retarded
children and adults, Wednesday
night in Exeter Public School.
"Only so much can be done
in the time these people are in a
work-shop, and recreation gets
through to kids in a personal
way, A young person can be a
real friend to a retarded person.
Their smiles make it
worthwhile. "
Twenty-one year .old Cathy
Cambray, guest speaker at the
meeting, has been working for
the last nine months as a
Supervisor of ARC Industries in
St. Catharines. She is one of the
three full-time workers taking
care of 43 retardates.
"It is so important to show
our love and attention and caring
about these kids," she said.
"Each retarded person is an
individual with emotions and
feelings and sometimes these
feelings get too keyed up. Young
people can help them control
their emotions and teach them
to get along better in public."
Miss Cambray, began her talk
with an explanation of her dress.
The long purple, velvet gown
with flowing sleeves and lace
trim was made by her charges
(the retardates she works with)
when they heard she was going
to Exeter to speak. They made
her promise to wear it, so true to
her word, she did. The pearls
knotted around her neck took
the children four days to string.
To illustrate the importance
of youth work, Miss Cambray
told the 50 young people and
adults attending the meeting of
one mongoloid girl who came up
to her, threw her arms around
her neck and kissed her.
"This happened after she had
been taken on a recreational
activity. It was the first real
break-through."
She said it is very impor,tant
to vary the recreational
activities. The St. Catharine
group of youth volunteers take
retardates bowling, to movies
and dances, to basketball games
and help them put on special
programs.
She had on display a variety
of articles made at the workshop
by the retardates. They ranged
from intricately crocheted pot
holders to delicate Christmas
tree decorations.
"We do painting and
paper-cutting too," she said. "It
all helps the co-ordination."
Miss Cambray showed some
slides showing the children in
costumes and masks at a party.
Volunteers out-numbered the
retardates two to one.
Reports on the nursery and
day school for local children
indicated general improvement
and varied programs.
It was announced that four
young people would attend the
Youth Activity conference in
Ajax and plans for a Flower of
Hope Campaign were outlined.
explained how the Bible was like
both a torch and a sword. The
challenge of the, story - was a
new cFub, a group of fellows
serving Christ and carrying His
message.
From this first meeting in a
small mid western town came
the Christian Service Brigade, an
international boys' club
program.
Joseph Coughlin was the
founder of the program and
today there is a Headquarters
Office staff and a staff of field
workers in many parts of the
country to help make Brigade
the finest boys program possible.
There have been many leaders
and directors since the group's
inception but the first Canadian
director was Tom Swan
appointed in 1969.
The Brigade program has
expanded steadily from 7 units
in 1939 in U.S.A. to over 3000
units in 1970 in U.S.A. and
Canada. In the past five years,
the number of Brigade units has
doubled in Canada.
The congregation of
Emmanuel Baptist Church,
Exeter offers this Stockade
program to the boys of this
community. The organization is
divided into two groups. Boys,
8-11, called the Stockaders, are
under the leadership of Gerry
McAuley, and the 12-18 group,
the Brigadiers, are guided by
whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good
report; if there be any virtue,
and if there be any praise, think
on these things." *

The Program is built on the
need for physical action,
individual expression,
development of mental and
physical expression, and
guidance in establishing good
habits. The boys are also taught
the basic beliefs and training for
Christian living. These aspects
are provided through group
participation, graded
achievement which meets the
needs of the members now, and
through discipline and
co-operation provides the
foundation for the boys' future
development.
Other than the regular weekly
meetings the boys enjoy nature
hikes, cookouts, overnight
campouts, many social events as
well as swimming, canoeing and
other sports.
Recently three Brigadiers,
David Hall, Jesse Postill and Bob
Heywood attended an Ontario
Conference at Albert College,
Bellville. The boys took part in
workshops and discussed such
topics as discipline and drugs.
They also participated in a full
program of sports and heard
several well informed speakers.
The Christian Service Brigade
offers a program filled with
action, excitement, fun and
challenges, as well as spiritual
stimulation for the young men
involved
