On the Street.

As the evenings grow more mild there
are more persons on the street, and increas-
ing temptation TO enjoy the promenade.
Many persons have business errands that
must be done outside of their working
hours. There are numerous occasions for
going out, and most of them are legitimate
and innocent. But when boys habitually
spend their evenings away from home with
rude companions. they grow more lawless
and boisterous themselves, and the tenden-
cy of all this is demoralizing. tits so, right
in neighborhoods where the sick and the
dying lay, the noise upon the walks by
these boys in the evening is the hardest
experience Of the twenty four hours. The
disposition to commit petty depredations
upon property is apparently the increase
here, and parents who do not know what
their boys see doing at night would often
be very unhappy if they did know; and are
doing themselves and their sons and society
a great wrong in not knowing. Boys who,
when alone or by daylight would have no
disposition to commit lawless or to do
mean or unmanly act, will, under the excite
ment of a crowd daring and cheering them
on, do reckless and vicious things, which
they are ashamed to remember, or to have
older people hear of; and if their parents
exercise a wholesome restraint upon them
and save them from disgraceful associa-
tions, the boys will, in time, appreciate
their kindness and wisdom.
There is also something about the edu-
cation after twilight and the influences of
the street which should equally interest
mothers and daughters. The Careful moth
er will not allow unlimited liberty in the
matter Of her daughters going and CON-
ing after dark. Young girls or women who
go out in the evening without proper
escort. and run the risk of finding chance
company to attend them home are either
pitifnlly ignorant, or lacking in delicacy.
The sensible and modest girl shrinks from
putting herself in any place where her lack
of protection must appeal to the gallantry
of some young man tosee her home. Such
occasions may happen, but if they uniform
ly or frequently occur, she is exposed to
to her, and for which no one is to blame but
herself. Even regular church going under
those circumstance is not duty.
Young girls, who in quiet neighborhoods
and country homes, have had no danger Of
being misunderstood are exposed to mis-
apprehension and remarks derogatory, if
in town where there are always many
strangers, such freedom of manner is in
dulged. In modesty and discretion there
is always safety, and we sometimes see a
native reserve and dignity that is protec-
tion anywhere, and under any ordinary
circumstances a sufficient protection.
Ifyoung women are bold or gushing in
their manner, familiar on brief acquain-
tance, loud in their talk, excessive in mirth,
fiashy in dress, aid prominent everywhere,
you can depend upon itthat the young men
are not to blame who make their acquain-
tance with her easy, and their remarks of
her hard.
