In many cities there is semi military
organization for boys above twelve
years of age, that originated in Scotland
and is becoming popular in this coun-

department, obedience to commands
and higher sense of moral RESPONSE
bility. Is there no one to take it in
hand here, and find diversion for such
of our city boys as are left to their own
devices and undeciplined impulses?
Says The New York Tribune:
From FORCES where no fires burn,
From mills where wheels no longer turn,
From looms DER which no shuttles leap,
From merchants shops-which shenfs
keep.
From banks gone up, from stocks gone
down,
From God-made country, man-made
town,
From Wall street men, from sons of
toll,
From the bronzed tillers of the soil,
From north, from south, from east,
from west,
Business is crying with zest-
Don't monkey with the tariff"
