If man had $50 pup, he would look
after it carefully and not let it run
around at night all over town, says a
level headed exchange. But if he has
a boy, it is different. The boy is
turned loose at tender age to go to
the devil, and then the people wonder
where all the great army of tramps,
buns, dead beats, loafers and gam
blers come from each decade. They
are terminated from the pure seed
gathered from our homes and sown
broadcast upon our streets and alleys.
It may be that your boy is making a
good growth in that direction. At all
events the boys ought to have an equal
showing with the pup. The above is
not true in all instances, by any means,
but there are certainly a few cases
where preference is shown the pup.
