Excerpt from Fourth Canadian Conference of Charities and Correction: Toronto, September 25th and 26th, 1901
Cigarette smoking was one of the worst habits known, and too often was followed by other evil habits. The speaker gave a number of instances illustrative of his points. Great care had to be exercised in the selection of homes for the chil dren coming under their care. Frequently information ought not to be given as to parentage of the children. The system adopted by the Society was an excellent one, producing good results. Of all the children placed by that Branch, only four removals had been recommended by the Provincial Inspector. In some of the homes these children proved the most precious of their possessions. Cases were cited showing the good effects produced both on the children and on the homes into which they had been taken.
