mo, you don't see my children
ioafing around the streets at night"
~ said the janitor of
city apartment
house, according to
a writer for the Youths Companion.
ut costs me something to keep them
away from the gangs, but it's worth
the money. They're all respectable
people here on the street, you know,
and some pretty well to do. Doesn't
seem to be any need of their boys
going wrong, does there? Well, the
trouble started with letting the boys
run wild in the evenings. The janitor
of this next house didn't attend to
his business. The boys learned he
wasn't around at night, so they used
to take their boxinggloves into his
basement and light the gas and have
great times-regular prize-fights.
Now, that was only a boys caper,
and needn't have led to any serious
harm, if the young fellows had been
taken hold of right then and there,
and handled right. When the police
man found 'em and drove 'em, pos
sibly one or two of the boys did get
a-whaling; but they went right back
to their hang-out at the corner, and
kept on scheming how to have fun.
Come warm weather, vacation time,
and the leader took a notion to jump
on train one day and have a ride.
He got out in the country and begged
his living for a day or two, and then
he hoped on another train and came
back He had regular picnic, he
thought. All the other boys were
wild to try it. Well, one of 'em did.
He got thrown off the first time,
so he had to do it all over again.
The second time he got under the
wheels, and that was the end of
him. Mind you, all these fellows
had been picking up lots of accom-
plshments while they hung around
the corner. In the course of year
they knew how to smoke, they were
good, hard swearers, and could lie
pretty well, and because they could
do mischief all around the neighbor
hood and dodge the policeman, they
thought they were about as smart
as the next one. 1t happened one
day that the leader of the gang
was suffering for cigarettes, so, what

and pawn 'em. He stole from the
wrong man, as it turned out, and his
folks couldn't settle the case. The
officers on this beat gave the boy a
bad name-and there's no denying
he was the worst of the bunch-and
the Judge sent him to Jail for 80
days. Well, there you have the years
record of six sons of decent people.
One of them killed while trying to
play hobo one graduated to jail
four of 'em 'on the ragged edge of
worthlessness, and all of 'em under
II years old. | bought my boys
gymnasium tickets last winter" the
ianitor added. "They're playing
baseball now, and in the fall they'll
join football team, if ! have to
start one myself. They've got to
have company, and they need some
way to work off their animal spirits,
and calculate decent company and
decent sports in decent places are
