Children's Aid Society The usual monthly meeting of the Children's Aid Society was held on Wednesday evening in the office of the superintendent of Neglected Children, It was shown that the children's boarding house on Boyle street at the present time is being run to capacity under the able management of Nurse fV. Knowlton, and it is thought that If the need for more accommodation should arise it may be necessary to ob-j tain more commodious quarters for the work. Two items of especial interest came up during the evening. One was a letter from Messrs.

Hyndman Hynd-nian enclosing a check for $125 for the society. The letter stated that a Mr. J. B. Walker of Reading, England, had recluested Messrs-Hyndman and Hynd- man to.

use 250 Part of profit which he made on an investment in Edmon ton, for the benefit of one or two char- Itahle institutions in the city. The writer went on to say that he had come i to the conclusion that the children's i boarding house would be an excellent I object for a portion of this sum and conesquently he was enclosing a check for The money will enable the society to provide a number of necessities and comforts for the home which they could not otherwise have pro-I cured, for some time at least. The second item of interest was a I report to the effect that while the Shriners were in town, one of their i number collected a quarter from all the people in the hotel, netting a sum of which he gave to the manager of the hotel, directing him to forward It to the Children's Aid Society. This was done, and the sum duly placed to the credit of the society. jiie reports or the society's agent, and of the matrons of the Children's Shelter and Children's Boarding House were received and showed that the work in all departments has been carried on in a most satisfactory manner during the month of March.

The thanks of the society are due to those who so kindly contributed articles of clothing and food to the Children's Shelter during the past month. The clothing donations in particular were of a most practicable nature and made it possible to fit out several of the children that were brought in in a poorly clad condition. Self-pity is the first symptom of paranoia. Ana paranoia is a disease of the brain that comes from continually thinking of one's own self and dwelling on slights and fancied insults. If we fail in an' undertaking we blame others.

If we succeed we take all the credit to ourselves. It is very much easier to blame someone else than to face the issue; and so we hide our blunders behind an excuse, evolve self-pity, explain the matter to anyone who win listen, to get tnem, if possible, to help feel sorry for us. Self-pity evolves hypocrites who pretend that they feel sorry for us, when the fact is that, down deep in their own hearts, they think less of us for every whine, every grouch, and every growl.

A choir, comprising the members or the tribe, await the entry of the wedding party, hen they sing some appropriate hymn, accompanied on the organ by the choirmaster, wno Is also i a native. After the ceremony, which Is carried out in the English language, the bridal I party is escorted to the town hall, where tables are groaning under the delicacies of the season, On a raised platform the principal wedding guests take their seats with the bride and groom.

Tables are arrang-: alor.g the entire length of the hall, for the whole of the members of the band, comprising 350 people. At a given signal, grace Is sung try the assemblage, and the wedding dinner, which has taken many days to prepare, is indulged In. It has always been the custom to pro-ride everything new for the invited i whites. The tableware is of the best, and the culinary art ot mose wno prepared the edibles, must be seen to be appreciated. Frosted cakes, fruits, nuts, and every conceivable delicacy is present.

In order to provide the ri'ceFsary beef for so large a crowd, one of the many cattle, owned by the Indians, Is sraughtered some days before, and served at tne commencement of the repast. In the centre of the table occupied by the invited guests is the proverbial wedding cake, which is afterward cut and distribute! to, all present. Again at the close of the supper thanks are given for the good things provided, and oratory is indulged in. Relatives of the contracting parties open the speechmaking by wishing lonj life and prosperity to the happy couple. VII of the white persons present are expected to speak on tne occasion, which some do in English and others In Haida or Chinook.

After all who desire have expended the necessary number of felicitations, thr nail is cleared and dancing is indulged in. There are pe -sons who consider that war dances and other heathen customs take up the evening, tais they are again mistaken. An orchestra, consisting of natives, provides the latest music to which the young men and women dance two-steps, waltzes and modern measures. The evening passes merriment and good feeling. Few of the whites present ftut ar struck with the advancement of the most isolated band of Indians in the north.

It reminds me of the conversation with one of them a few days ago. He was commenting tne ract that he had recently noticed Indian women In the capital city of the province. Thef were dressed in tattered clothing, without shoes, and were hawking clams. He could not understand why those in such close touch with civilization were still without the necessary comforts of life. With little over half a century of civilization the Haidas are a race apart from all other rrem fierce warriors to accepting Christianity and the ways of civilization has been a step that is favorably commented on by all who visit the islands.

Crime among them is almost unxnown now and all are working to reach an ideal that means further advancement Masset. B. C. News. (BY J.
