BUSY VEAR FOR
CHILDREN'S AID
Kiddies Made Wards in Huron County
Number Fifteen.— Secretary's Re-
port. — Annual Meeting at Goderich
Hears of Good Work.
Goderich, Nov. 27.—A report of the
work done by the Children's Aid Soc-
iety in Huron County during the past
year was presented at the tutnua1 meet-
ing this week, and was received with
gratification by nlenmbers. The secre-
tary, Mr. G. M. Elliott, quoted only it
few 'of the' individual cases on which
the society has been active, but the
need for such work was plainly reveal-
ed, Several cases where children have
been benefitted by surgical treatment
showed a branch of the work that is
well worth while.
Officers for the coming year were re-
elected, There were words of praise
for Miss Bentley, who has charge of
the shelter, Mrs. Pedley,. of the Ox-
ford County Home, one of the best
equipped and most efficient un the
province, gave a helpful address. Miss
Butter 50c to 5)c Josie Saunders, who has taken a deep
,.$1,95, $198 interest in' the work, announced that
$1.95, $198 the proceeds of a Swastika Club
bazaar in aid of the home would
amount to $40.
Some Difficult Cases.
The past year has been a busy one,"
' said the secretary. "We have had
some difficult cases to deal with, but
we have had splendid help from county
' officials and others in dealing with chil-
dren and in securing proper informa-
tion. County Crown Attorney Seager
has been a great help to the society in
denting with cases under The Children's
Protection Act of Ontario, The work
of the society is gradually coating into
prominence, and its friends are becom-
ing more numerous as the years go by.
`1t is nearly a year since the open-
ing of the childrens' home provided by
the county, the opening taking place
at our last annual meeting on Decem-
ber 4, 1918. We hav found the home
just what was required to properly
carry on the work of the society.
Fifteen Made Wards.
"The work might be summed up as
follows: Complaints investigated, 82;
number of children involved in com-
plaints, 148; interviews held, 228;
phone interviews, 240; applications for
children received, 30; court Cases at-
tended, 28; wards placed or replaced,
27; children made wards, 15; wards
visited, 125; number of miles (appro-
ximate) travelled in visiting, 3,420;
mail 'matter received, 561; mail sent
out, 1,684.
"Most of our wards who went over-
seas have returned; two will never re -
Hsback with hint. Another has married

Persistent Cough
Should Never Be Neglecteda
The constant hacking, racking, per-
sistent cough that sticks to you to spite
of everything you havo clone to get rid
of it, means danger,
The longer the cough sticks, the more
serious menace it becomes to your health.
It is a very easy matter to get rid of
the cold at the outset by using
iDr. Wood's
Norway Pine Syrup.
In nearly every case it will allay the
inflammation, soothe the irritation, heal
the diseased mucous lining of the lungs
and bronchial tubes, and thus' rid the
system of all the bad effects of the
lingering cough or cold.
Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup hu
been universally used for the past
30 years, and so great has been its
somas, it is only natural that a great
many imitations have been placed on
the market.

Pine Syrups. Get the original "Dr.
Wood's.
