Though we DO rough and we be crude,
Though Oft impatient be and rude,

Though men Of tongue thy peace revile
And clamor loud for dire revenge,
Forgive them. Lord. IT'S thus they cringe.
They only thus themselves beguile.

Would we make war, nor greed, nor gain.
We only war that justice reign.

The Boys Reform School.
BY GRACIA HART.


Dear Little Readers of the Advocate
and News: s:-Your editor has asked me
to write for her little folks about an
institution in which am very much in
terested and in which want to interest
every man, woman and child in our
great commonwealth, the Kansas State
Reform School.
Now first let me say this school is not
penitentiary and our boys are not
many of them criminals. Many people
think that they are wicked and worth
less, but the great State Of Kansas did
not consider them such when she built
the school that they might be separate
from the worthless criminals. This
school was built for the erring children
not that they might be punished for
what they had done, but that they
might be taught to do better. About
half Of our boys are committed as in
corrigibles and half of the remainder
for petty thieving, the remaining one
fourth for crimes that would have
been punishable by Imprisonment had
the boys been old enough A great
many of them have only one parent
living. Some have step parents. These
conditions are unfortunate for the boys.
They get to running away; they refuse
TO work; they won't attend school; they
are out late at night; they keep bad
company and finally they become the
bad company" and help to influence
other boys away from their homes. And
when the good people of the State of
Kansas see these boys doing wrong and
forming bad habits they can have them
arrested and committed to the school,
whore they will be taught to be honest
Industrious and manly and have good
school advantages. Our work is about
equal to the GA grade work in the pub
lie schools; most of the boys are in the
third and fourth grades We have good
teachers, and the boys are required to
be In school four hours a day from Sep
tember to May.
There are from 22O to 230 boys in the
school. They are eligible to be ad-
mitted from to 16 and can remain
until they are 21. The average age is
"a years The boys are sent to the
school by the different courts Of the
State. They may gain their release in
much less time than they are COM
mitted for. 1t Is known as the merit
and demerit system. A boy must have
500 merit marks or good days to en-
title him to be parole or a release; $50
merits are given him when he enters,
The Advocate and news., 1898-07-06
BY MABLE DIGcs.

and for every good day, and for extra
work, he receives a merit. The average
boy will get the required 600 merits in
from fifteen to eighteen months. He
can be released then If he has a home
or some place to go; II he has not, he
Is kept at the school. They are called
honor boys" or TRUSTEES" AS fast
as the superintendent can find desir-
able homes for them he let's them 60
but If they don't get along well and
either they or the family that took them
are not satisfied they can go back to
the school. The tables have white
cloths and napkins and the dishes are
all white. They drink from large white
bowls After they are seated they re-
peat together a short blessing, and at
the tap of the bell the walters begin
to pass the victuals; they do not al
ways have the same bill of fare-some-
times bacon and eggs and coffee bread
every meal, of course; sometimes hash,
coffee, etc, or sliced cold beef and mus
tard, sandwiches, Oat meal, potatoes
cooked with milk gravy. The food Is
always well cooked. They have a half
hour to eat each meal. After breakfast
they march out on the grounds where
they line up and the detail Is made by
the superintendent. BY detail / mean
that each boy is given some work to do
that forenoon. Some of them have reg
ular jobs, whose detail is just the same
each morning.
On Sundays they have Sunday school
at 10 a. m, church service at 8 p. M.
and military drill and band concert
from to p. m; supper at $3.50 and
the boys can write home every other
Sunday.
Now, my dear little readers, 1t was
not my intention to take up so much
space in telling you about the school,
but to tell you something of some Of
the little boys who have no parents,
nor even q friend--bOys whose lives
have been filled with sadness from the
cradle. Boys who have no memory Of
a pleasant home, nor kind influences
and encouraging words-little boys
with no love for the past, no hope for
the future When they go out into
the world it will be with no friends, no
money They haven't days care as
sured them, and some people, when they
careful to believe them innocent until
they have been proven guilty. II you
could be among them and hear them
ask the superintendent, Cant you get
a home for me? l will work and be a
good boy" That is what they intend
to be. Often they fail, and the parties
that take them bring them back. won
der how many Of us live up to our best
intentions, and again | wonder il the
parties who took the boys lived up to
their best intentions and did all they
promised for the little homeless waits
Not all of the boys fail; no, indeed. But
1t is for these little fellows who do fail
and who have disappointed themselves,
that am most anxious-that l most
love. Those who have succeeded have
already won new friends and are safely
launched in life.
Sometime, II 1t will please you, will
write again and tell you Of some of
these little fellows Of whom Christ said:
"lnasmuch as you do it unto the least
OF these you do 1t unto me-"

l think you will be interested in the
accompanying letter from the Colorado
colony of which your papas and man.
mas have heard a good deal. The colony
is very new at present, but the people
there are faithfully working each day
toward the upbuilding Of home under
conditions which will never be shad-
owed by the baleful environments Of the
fierce struggle Of competitive business.
Mr.. Will Kent is a very bright young
man who left his comfortable home in
Washington, D. c., and went to give his
aid to the workers on the Colony ditch.
You will see by his letter that their
hard work is varied once and awhile
by masquerade balls and other amuse-
ments.

The daily life of member of the
Colorado Cooperative Colony is but
little different in many OF it's features
from the life Of the wOrkingman else
where, and to one who had lived in a
manufacturing center, the life, with it's
absolute regularity, would not seem at
all extraordinary. To one who had
been accustomed to the irregular habits
of a city student, however, it would be
decidedly novel and interesting.
Imagine yourself in bunkhouse,
forty feet long by twenty wide, the walls
Of which are lined with bunks ten
double hunks, sleeping twenty men.
These hunks are double deckers," with
boards at the sides, and bit Of straw
on the bottom; on the whole, very
comfortable couch when one is accus-
toned to it. Against the ends or lean
ing in a corner near by 1t shotgun
or rifle, perhaps, and In a chaos Of
confusion are hung trousers, coats,
socks, hats, and heaven knows what
not, many sadly in need of repair, and
lamenting the lack Of housekeeper.
In the middle Of the room is a long
table, on which lie few books and
papers, most Of which are reform jour-
nails, a lamp and some writing essen
tlals. The room is dark, having but
four tiny windows, and it Uttered up
with anything from Ferguson's new
derby or silk tie to heap of ashes, the
one as the other picturesquely arranged
on the floor.
This bunkhouse is the home Of the
unmarried men when they are in Pinon;
the other camps have similar quarters
Of their own.
At half past on a cold wintry morn
ing, a little alarm clock calls out its ag-
gravating Arouse We" and German Lou
shouts Get up, Rob, it's your week
now." A fire is started and the others
roll out and dress. About 6 the break
fast horns are blown, and the men go
to their different boarding houses for
the welcome oatmeal The teamsters
have already watered and fed their
horses and harnessed them, the foreman
is busying himself about the days work,
so they are later at breakfast than the
ditch crew; but when at Z the foreman
bangs upon a large circular saw with
hammer, every man is up and of, pail
in hand if he be Of the ditch crew, to
his days work.
Now that the days labor has COM
menced, we will take a look around
and see for ourselves the working Of
practical cooperation. We drive up to
the ditch, the men are toiling at an
immense rock, some drilling holes for
blasting, some loosening the corners,
Then three tremendous reports and the
rock crashes downward into the river
tearing away all before It in It's de-
structive course. They are accomplish
