OUR BOYS.
II Experiences OF a Police officer
with HaniSton Youngsters and their
Parents,

II Experiences of a Police officer
with Yanixton Youngsters and their
Parents.
The subject of the present reforma-
tory movement in behalf of the boys of
sankton was under discussion when a
municipal officer of long experience be-.
san to move his chin.
"You don't suppose, do you, that this
is any new thing-this gambling and
drinking by boys?"
Nobody supposed anything in the
premises and after assuring himself
that the audience wanted to llsten,
rather than talk, he continued:
Its been going on for years. OF
course there are all sorts of boys. Some
are good and some are
bad and some are only medium and all
the latter need is to be looked after. But
tell you, parents don't want their boys
to be caught drinking and gambling and
they don't thank any officer for catching
them at it. OF course they feel that the
officer Is doing his duty and should-be
commended, but there is a GOODNESS and
o sort OF mi which plainly shows
that they would like to look on the off
Ger as being as much to blame as the
boy.
do you suppose if a boy was found
drinking in q saloon that his parents
would permit the saloon man to be
prosecuted? Not much. I've tried it.
They always want me to catch some
other mans boy and then proceed to in
Hict the penalty. That is the way it
goes. 1t is the family disgrace they
fear and t hen they feel that their own
boys may make d mistake once IN q while
without being bad at heart,and then if too
many instances are brought to their
knowledge they begin to side with the
boy, and against the officer. The boy
finds it out quick enough and feels that
he is backed by the old man in his
wickedness.
why, I've had parents ask me to
watch their kids and when I have re-
ported that they were spending their
nights where they shouldn't, the father
would work up a hostile feeling against
me, as though / was to blame. These
experiences, you see, lead us to be eau
tious about interfering in family affairs.
"This is the reason, l say, why the
citizens league won't amount to any
thing. It's a good thing and ought to be
pushed, and no one knows it any better
than l do. The only members of the
league who will want to push things are
those who have no boys, because the
Others, are all the time liable to get into
the same fix that scores of parents in
this city have been ID, and who never
fail to show the white feather at the
critical moment. No sir, I tell you
blood's thicker than water. L have
learned to be mighty careful about DEM
onstratlng to parents the wickednsss of
their offspring and there isn't a man in
the police business who does not very
soon learn the same lesson"

You are coming to WOO me, but not as Of yorc,
When hastened to welcome your ring at

For trusted that ne Who stood waiting me
then
Was the Brightest the truest, the noblest Of

Your lips Oh my own when they printed
farewell"
Had never been soiled by the "beverage OF

But they come to me now with Bacchanal sign,
And the lips that touch liquor can never

When in whispers you told me youf heart

Thatyour love in the future should faithfa, be,
Unshafed by another, kept only for HE.
OH sweet to my soul is the memory still,
or the lips that met mine, when they MUIR

But now to their pressure no more they Incline
For the lips that touch liquor can never

! loved you, OH dearer than language can tell,
And YOU saw it, you proved it you knew it
too well;
But the man Of my love was far other than he
Who now from the tap-room comes reelirg
to me;
In manhood and honor so noble and right
And his soul unstained, unpouted by wihe;
But thu lips that touch liquor can newer
touch mihe.
You promised reform, but trusted in vain;
Your pledge was made but to be broken again;
And the lover so false to his promise now,
Will not as husband be true to his vow.
The words must be spoken that bids you
depart
Though the effort to speak it should skates
my heart
Though ia silence with blited affection pine,
Yet the lips that touch liquor can never

If one spark in yuor bosom Of virtue remain,
Go fan it with prayer till it kindle again;
Resolve, with "God helping" in future to be
From wine and its follies unshackled and free;
And when you have conquered this foe of
your soul,
In manhood and honor beyond his control,
This heart will again beat responsive to thine,
And the lips free from liquor be melcome to
