Il don't know what IL IL about
pool rooms that gets into boys
blood said Sam, but once let the
microbe start work and the result
IL sometimes fierce. I've seen
boys make a dash for the pool room
as soon as school iet out. In nine
cases in ten every young man who
frequents pool rooms spends every
cent he gets. lie spends II all at
tho pool room. and when It il gone
he looks for more to spend. II his
parents will not supply more money
he will steal IT, So. YOU see. it's
easy 70 tell why the budding law
breaker degencrases into a Grim
inal"
Strong words, these. but Sam
Corbett has encountered the pool
room evil for many years and his
opinion is worth more than ordin-
AIRY weight.
All Do Good Business.
There are scores OF pool aud bill
Hard halls In Seattle and they all
do a thriving business. They all
derive their PATRONAGE from BOYS
and young men. They are open all
hours OF the day and night and
on Sunday Apparently there is no
effective way OF stopping boysfrom
frequenting these resorts. The po-
lice officers know the law. They
try To enforce it, but TO properly
enforce the ordinance quoted above
would take the entire time Of the
police force.
Every time pool room proprie-
tor is hauled before Police Judge
John h. Gordon he is fined There
Is no excuse for permitting boys
under rs years OF age TO spend
their time In pool rooms. accord
ing 60 Judge Gordon. The pool room
proprietors invariably fall back on
the excuse that they always ark
the age of boys who appear TO
them to be under the limit set by
ordinance. Judge Gordon has always
held that no pool room proprietor
is justified in accepting any boys
statement that he is over is years
OF age II there is any doubt Judge
Gordon says II is up 10 the pool
room proprietor 60 ascertain the
right age from the boys parents.
That is as far as Police Judge
Gordon can so. The police can do
nothing but arrest the offending
pronrietors. But the results re-
main. The evil remains aud IL viii
