SAVING bad" BOYS.

boys were In swimming this one sat
on the bank of the river and thought.
That night after all the boys were in
bed and Mr.. Wengiersk was in the
room with them the culprit spoke up
and said
Julius, you were right and I was
wrong. I will apologize to Miss Nut
inner the first thing in the morning,
and promise that you will have no
further trouble with me-"
That boy slept better that night
than he would otherwise" said Mr..
first thing he did was to apologize to
the housemother."
Mr.. Wengierski looks at the prob
lem largely from an economic point OF
view. He reasons that it is much bet
ter to have a man productive and able
to care for himself than to have him
criminal and supported by the state
He believes environment is often a
determining factor In the life of the
youth and feel that to give these
boys a homelike place to live rather
than in jails with hardened criminals
is to save them to become useful citi-
zens. He thinks that to devote some
time and effort to saving a boy for his
own future good Is worth more than
to spend the money of the state sim
ply to protect society for a time from
lad who has in some way got a bad
start in life.

Lawyer, Aims at Reformation
Rather Than Punishment Of
Unfortunate Youths.

Belolt. Wis.--Firmly believing that
boys supposed to be incorrigibe can,
under proper handling, be made law
abiding citizens and useful men. and
unable to resist a desire to test his
theory by practice, Julius Wengierski,
a Chicago lawyer, gave up his own
promising future and Is now sur
rounded by boys who have been com.
mltted to his care rather than to the
reform school, and he is the central
figure In a miniature republic.
This institution is not a Wisconsin
one. but Is located about ten miles
west OF Beloit and just across the line
In Illinois. II is attracting much at
tention here because of Its proximity,
and Belolt people are watching the ex-
pertinent to learn whether or not 1t Is
worth trying here.
Mr.. WengIersh calls his institution
The Farm School" He is not a

ported partly by the county, which
furnishes the farm rent free, and part.
ly by an association made up of the
best people in the county. The county
also pays a specified amount for each
boy committed.
The boys are put upon their honor
They are trusted not to run away, and
thus far but one or two have violated
the trust. Boys who have escaped
from other Institutions two or three
times seem not to think of running
away from the farm school, where
they could easily slip away. They
live as big family and the director
takes hts place as one of thom He
exercises his authority rather as a
Judge than as a master, and allows
the majority to say what shall be

posed by the company are violated.
