	boys brigade uniforms
		The Boys' Brigade is a Christian organisation for boys aged between 6 and 18 years and is the oldest uniformed youth organisation in the world, being founded in Glasgow, UK in 1883 by Sir William Alexander Smith.
		The early Boys' Brigade was strongly associated with the Church of Scotland and subsequent with the Church of England as the movement spread to England.
		Boys during the first year of the Boys' Brigade (presumably 1883) only wore a rosette as a badge, and the officers wore a detinctly civilian-looking bowler hat.

	William Alexander Smith and the Boys' Brigade
		From a social point of view the Boys' Brigade addressed the great generation of young people of the growth in British population: their longevity, as clean water and the end of cholera kicked in, meant that they were able to make traditions over 50 years in their own life times.
		The narrative written for Boys' Brigade members delights in the story of: ‘the lovely girl, whose dark eyes seemed to speak of Spain, and who was want to sing the Spanish folk songs with quaint and bewitching ease.
		More widely, brigades for shoe shine boys and street sweepers were given uniforms to show that they had a legitimate place in city streets (there is a wider study of the uniformed antecedents of the Boys' Brigade by Robin Bolton to be published by the Youth Work Press (Bolton 2005)).

	Boy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In sports 'the boys' commonly refers to the team mates; e.g., UK football managers quite often refer to their players as "The boy so-and-so" and this usage is by no means restricted to the youngest players, though it is rarely applied to the most senior.
		In some cases, a word using boy is used merely to designate the age of the (male) person, irrespective of the function, as in altar boy, a minor acting as liturgical acolyte, or in Boy Scouts, an organisation specifically for boys.
		Expressions such as "boys will be boys" (i.e., a male always retains a tendency for boyish games or mischief) allude to stereotypically ascribed characteristics of boys and men; in the term tomboy, a woman's (according to the counterpart-gender stereotype) uncharacteristically bold nature is even described solely by comparing her to a boy.

	Boys' Brigade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The object of the Boys' Brigade is: "The advancement of Christ's kingdom among Boys and the promotion of habits of Obedience, Reverence, Discipline, Self-respect and all that tends towards a true Christian manliness." Its motto 'Sure and Stedfast' (although in the modern version it is spelt Steadfast) is taken from the Bible.
		The first Boys' Brigade company was set up by Sir William Alexander Smith on 4 October 1883 at Free Church Mission Hall, North Woodside Road, Glasgow, Scotland to develop 'Christian manliness' by the use of a semi-military discipline and order, gymnastics, summer camps and religious services and classes.
		Early admirers of the Brigade included Robert Baden-Powell who as Vice President of The Boys' Brigade used it alongside initiatives in schools, particularly Eton, to promote the idea of scouting and outdoor pursuits based on those of the military for boys.

	167th Glasgow Company Boys' Brigade
		The Boys' Brigade was the first uniformed organisation for boys and it was founded in Glasgow in 1883 by William Alexander Smith (later knighted for his work in the B.B.) William Smith was born in Thurso and moved to Glasgow to work.
		Included in later programmes was an outdoor activity called scouting for Boys' based on a booklet written for Smith by Baden-Powell, who was a close friend of his, but it was later recognised by both men that this activity was big enough to support separate organisation, hence the Boy Scout Association.
		The company saw many changes in the Brigade's programme, badge and activity work, in uniform and the structure of the company, and was able to adapt to these changes to meet the challenges of the times.

	Peterhead Methodist Church - Boys' Brigade
		Seriously, throughout the weekend the boys behaved very well; some took longer to sleep than others, but that was to be expected when you consider there were fourteen boys sleeping in a ward, I mean dorm, together.
		Even though it was great to be away with the boys for the weekend and have a lot of fun, we have never to forget that, as Boys' Brigade Officers, we have a responsibility to share the Christian message with the boys.
		After that we treated the boys to ice cream again (couldn't resist it for a second time), and then it was a case of driving home and dropping off the boys back at the church.

		At Brigade Council 2004, the Brigade Executive were charged with bringing a motion before Council in 2006, to permit the admission of girls to the Boys' Brigade.
		However, we are concerned that the Brigade Executive’s motion has the potential to make dual gender Companies the norm.
		Should the Brigade Executive motion succeed as it stands then we can foresee parents/girls forcing the issue on Churches/Companies where there is neither the need nor the desire to have a dual gender organisation.
