It has par- ticularly devoted Its attention to work among the class of boysthat fall under the term "under -privileg- ed." In every great city there are. thou ands of such lads facing life under' grievous handicaps. Imposed by poverty, or by the more dreadful combination of poverty and such physical or. moral surroundings as weuld be a menace to the strongest: The task of brightening the >lives. of these lads and of giving then a fate chance to become good vitizens is w grateful one, and the Rotary Chili of Montreal has done s'splendid 'ie-ork in this connection, It has interested itself in a very practical way'in the Boys genie at Shawbridge In the Laurentian Mountains; and has done a. great deal for boys through- out the city and district, The Shawbridge Boys Home is the particular care of E. W. Beatty, President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, who is also president of the Home. He has always taken a great interest in the under -privileged boa', and it was natural, when the. 'Rotary Clubs held their convention in Montl•ea1 recently, that he should be asked to address them on that phase of their work, Perhaps the saddest thing in the world," said Mr. Beatty', "is the sub- normal boy, or one whose standard of health le lots,, and no work is greater or more inspiring then • that which helps to place the handicapped boy where he can face theworld on fairly equal terms with the more fortunate," Mr. Beatty went on totrot e a eminent English educationalist who, although not prejudiced against parents as aclass, stated with truth that niany parentis are not appre- ciative of the problems of their ehildren "and, not being capahie of grappling with 'their difflcultiea, do not supply the hi piration that tends to make them the kind of citizens he hould row. u t. he, " under -privileged boy of this elaasea said ft 1V ' Beatty, "le O� ;tenre c p ooi 0 u*: but more eiften he is undeveloped physically and mentally, and there- fore not capable of accomplishing lila. own destiny.
