"THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS" Last Sunday I listened to a won- derful sermon on the above Com- mandment as a text, It put me think- ing about some of my past experience with boys and girls in the territory where I was engaged for 15 years in Child Welfare work as an Inspect- or and Probation Officer. It remind- ed me of .many cases which I hand- led during that period and which were the happiest days of any life. And as a result, many of these boys and girls, now married and with families, correspond with me which is a very bright spot in'.my present life, Some of them call me "Dad" and others "Uncle Will". Here follows a digest story of one particular case I handled. A police- man reported to me a case he had in- vestigated which he believed a 10 - year -old boy was the guilty one, al- though he denied everything. I im- mediately took up the case and went to the boy's home and took him into a room by himself and said to him: "Now my -lad, I want you to accept me as a real friend. I am: here tohelp you out of any trouble that you may have gotten yourself into and direct you on the right path. I cannot do this unless you will tell me the whole truth and nothing but the truth." He unfolded everything to me. He shot a neighbor's colt and a steer, had stolen several things from neighbors and a store. I explained to him what these things would lead him to if he continued to do such things and that what he had already done was the first step to the penitentiary. "And now I want you to come with me to your father and mother and tell them what you have told me, and be not afraid as I am here to protect you from any harm." On appearing before them, I said to him "Did you ever hear about the Boy who never told a lie?" and he said "No", I then told him that was George Washington who afterwards became President of the United States, and if you will make up your mind to never tell a lie from this day on, you may same day be appointed to or elected to some one of the most important positions in this country. Will you promise me to do your best? "I will," he said. Then he told his par- ents all. He did as he promised, made good. I hid him removed from his home environment to a school 100 miles distant and visited him three or four times a year. The last I heard of him he was married, had a family and was teaching school and was Superintendent of a Sunday School. Note: He made good from that day, was pardoned, forgiven, and that first wrong step cancelled and forgotten. —Wm. Murray. FAMILY HERALD AND WEEKLY STAR Extraordinary demands are often made on a publication which makes real friends of its readers; according to the Family Herald and Weekly Star, which has prided itself on maintaining such a relationship to an unusual degree. Many things are asked of it, the Family Herald says, which readers would ordinarily never think of asking. One example is a request from a reader in Eng- land to have someone make,a per- sonal investigation and report on the health of her uncle in Nanaimo, B.C. She had -not heard from him in two years. While such requests cannot al- ways be satisfied because they would require facilities which are not available, the Family Herald points out, all efforts are made within rea- son to help the enquirer. Readers are regarded as members of the Family Herald family, and their problems are therefore deserving of sympathetic attention: ° Consultation and similar reader services have been provided by the Family Herald for many years, covering subjects which range from animal diseases to the obtaining of words and music to long -forgotten songs. Letters to these departments were written by approximately a quarter of a million Family Herald readers during 1953. In this way, the Family Herald points out, its readers are given more than the usual entertainment and in- formation provided by magazines, and tend to feel like members of a genuine "family". Like members of a family, they are quick to express likes and dislikes, they scold and en- courage, ask for advice and give it .as well, and continually impress on the publishers their feeling that the magazine really belongs to its sub- scribers. A lot of work? The Family Her- ald admits that it is, but they feel that the unusual warmth of response they receive from their readership makes it well worthwhile. The English lady's uncle in Nan- aimo? He was fine. She had been using a wrong address. KIPPEN Mrs. J.
