An appeal on behalf of THE CHURCH LADS' BRIGADE, by Field Marshal Sir CLAUD JACOB ,
G.C.B., G.C.S.I., K.C.M.G.
The Church Lads' Brigade is the ' Church Missionary Society ' to adolescent lads, and employs uniform and drill both to appeal to their romantic sense, and to deepen the discipline it would inculcate in them. The Brigade does not aim at training lads for national emergency, and is not a cadet force.
It seeks to make good citizens only in so far as good Christians are always the best citizens.
Drill is but the framework of Company activities. The greater time is spent on physical training, games, sports, and other recreations. In the summer camps the same ideal is aimed at.
