BOYS OUT AT Mont How many men ale
there who, in looking back to their boyhood
days, will not heartily endorse the following
pertinent remarks of an exchange upon this
subject 1t says The practice of allowing
boys to spend their evenings in the streets is
one i of the most ruiIous, dangerous and
mischieyous things possible. Nothing SO speedily
and surely marks their course downward. -
They acquire, under the cover of night, an
unhealthy state Of mind, vulgar and protaue
language, obscene practices, criminal sentl-
ments, and lawless and riotous bearing
Indeed, it is in the streets after niehtfall that
boys generally acquire the education and The
capacity tor becoming rowdy, dissolute men.
Parents, do you believe it? Will you keep
your children at home nights and see that their
home is made pleasant aud profitable.
