In a pond at Willowvale Park, Bloor Street West/Christie Street "The gang spirit is very strong in the city. Outstanding characters in boy life have no difficulty in keeping a strong body of retainers, ready to back them up in anything they say or do, and, as a rule, faithful in any trouble or dispute in which the gang may be involved. A gang should never be broken up, no matter what offence the members may have committed. It is true that separate units of it might better be weeded out, but never at the risk of breaking up the group. Rather, that gang should be given something that will bind them closer together. The leader is the boy to watch; he will look out for the rest. Give him careful attention, and let him develop to the fullest and best his powers of leadership." Lawrence Tew |
