4 Significant increase In the Number Of
Child Criminals.
There has surely been Of late very
great and significant increase in the num-

greatand significant increase in the num-
Der Of child criminals that are brought
to our police coerts. There are more Of
them, and they are much younger than
they used TO be, and they are vastly
tougher. Their manner shows plain
ly that the street has been their teacher,
and that they have been apt pupils. Its
method is simple and varies in He'll >
Kitchen and in Jewtown only in the
opportunities offered. To begin with,
the boy idler in the street during school
hours is there in defiance of law. wbeth.
er the fault is his own or not, and he
knows it He is in the attitude of OPP
position, the normal attitude Of the
street. The policeman is his enemy, and
the policeman stands for the establish
ed order of things.
Thus the groundwork is laid for
whatever mischief comes along IL is
not long i'll coming, rarely longer than
the dinner hour Of the first day. The
boy is hungry. He wants something to
eat. A boys hunger is not like a mans,
which can be appeased with promises.
He wants something at once. If he is
playing hoOky, he does not want to go
home to get it. Anyway there is no
need to do so. The street can show him
an easier way. A grocer's stand is
handy, or a pie wagon; better still. a
soda water wagon. The bottle is worth
so much cash at the junkshop. The
drivers back Is turned. The boy
'.swipes" one
1t is not a very great crime, but il Is
the stepping stone to many greater. A
horse blanket or a copper bottonied boil

first step that costs an effort, and that
not very great one. with the clamor
