THE FARMING EXPERIMENT CON-

Madison, Jan. %,

Madison, Jan. 20.
That truancy is one of the annoying
conditions in a big city was pointed
out last night by Mr.. Albert Hall
chief truant officer of Milwaukee, and
the farm he declared to be naturally
fitting for the incorrigible boys. Mr.
Hall arrived here last night to deliver
an address in Rev Updike's pulpit.
"One of the most perplexing prob
lens in city life" he said, lis truancy
1t is retarding the growth of cities ev-
erywhere."
But Milwaukee, like New York, Mr.
Hall said, is taking a lead in regulating
truancy. Working with Mr.. Hall are
staff of we'll trained men. They fol
low all cases that develop, going into
the causes from the symptoms that
they discover.
''Most irregularities are traceable to
the homes the Milwaukee officer ex
planned. "The parents are of degen-
crate types, far below the plane OF
progress they find themselves in. They
can not appreciate education and often
consider it most natural course to
turn the children into wage earners.
Many of them being of criminal ten
denotes, are unfit to bring up human
beings"
An interesting experiment that Mr..
Hall performed was the sending OF
more than two hundred children to a
farm one year. One hundred and fifty
Of them did excellent farming. Fifty
of the boys remained on the farms per-
manently. The boys ranged in age
from ten to fifteen years.
Mr.. Hall was for number of years
circulation manager of the Milwaukee
Journal, where he had to take care of
many news boys. This gave him the
foundation for his present position.

traveller to the cabin. W1tn1n, the

He arose and politely bowed as before.
The girl, still in embarrassment, nod
