HooDLuMs.-We find the following in the Grass
Valley Union, and it suits this town so admirably
that we re-publish it, and commend it both to
parents and boys in Auburn:
parents should know the range and the acts
of their children. very young boy by associ-
ating with older fellows can be easily converted
into hoodlum, and hoodlum will never do
honor to his parents or be of service to his coun

complain. We enter now in behalf OF society
and in behalf of the coming men of this town n

such a state OF affairs, and parents must have
more control and care of their offspring if sorrow
and the bitterness of woe is to be avoided in the
very near future"
