\, !LID,
To the Editor df The Signal, -As one
who took ..owe interest a decade or
more ago In the work of those who
were endeavoring to Stave the Boy,"
1 was greatly interested in the ar-
ticle in last week's Signal from the
pen of Mr. James Mitchell, president
Cbildreo'e Aid Society for the county
of Huron, In which he suggests the
adoption of the new slogan "Saye the
Children," and the establishment of a
Juvenile Court ter 'Huron county in - -
order to make_ b. *logan el effective
for and I might, Pe pe. o
still taking s deep interest in the wel-
fare of the rising generation of your 7-
-town, although many who would now'
come under the influence of a Juvenile �-
Court were unborn at the time I lived
among you. 1f there are any of your
reader who did not read t heat tat ticle
in question 1 would sugges
do mo now, and learn something about
the part, the present and the prospec-
tive manner of dealing with juvenile
delinquents. A little more care given
during the /mutative period of the
coming gene. ation will prevent a great
harvest of crime and suffering ; and
with the passing of those who now
crowd our prisowI, our poorhouses
and asylums we may look forward to
the passing of there institutions them-
selves, for with the proper care of our
little ones, which is scientific care as
well M religious care, there will be
none to take the place of t h« present
dwellers in these houses of detention
and refuge.

In addition to this, he has a sufficient
fund of worldly wtadom and coniwon

but rather to render judgments its har-

HOCKEY NOTES.
Mltcheil 5-Godertch 3.
On Friday night last, the Mitchell
Juniors vialtadliodetich sod defeated
the locals by the *core of 5 to 3 it) what
is considered the best hockey match
seen here/or some 'time. During the
first two periods both te•une put up
toms clever hockey, but in the third
frame the bottle team slowed down,
allowing three 'cores. The locals
were
very much hpndicapped y
ab-
sence of,Brhb, their fastest player.
The visitors. were cf alleizes, the big
gest being at leant six feet tall. The
two kids of the team, Cook and Gat-
enby, were the star* of the evening,
easily outekating anyone else on the
toe. Cho k put up the beet game for
the Ioettgilea„ The Mitchell teamahowed
evideoce of more practice. They out-
guessed their opponents, checked hack
better and displaced wucb better teem
play. They were inclined to rough
a little. though, and Tours, the referee,
allowed them to mix -in whenever they
wanted to.
Mitchell secured the initial tally in
five minutes of play and ten minutes
later Bowler tied it. In the' second
period the visitors again scored, but
Clark, after having hard luck in sev-
eral elites, notched one. Iri'the third
frame Mitchell got' lits- cuwl,iata-
tion working and made three
counters. During the last five minutes
of play Johnson found the corner of
the net for the last goal. Tbe liue-up
was as follows :
