before have the depredations of thievish
boys reached the present limit, yet there
Is but a single instance OF proper pun

cital Of his trials. 1t seems that not
only did this particular boy head a gang
OF young rufiians who robbed every fruit
tree and vine In the section where such
things are grown, but they pelted the
owners with their own fruit and used the
most dreadful language conceivable.
And we are told that boys must be
spared anything that will tend 70 make
criminals OF them, They can be young
rowdies and thieves and boast that the
law Will not punish them, and policemen
can be instructed to close their eyes to
such conduct. but what OF the future?
