the court which originally heard her
case and has been sent to che state in
dustrial school at Vergennes TO serve
the sentence passed upon her This
is one of the few instances in which
the comparatively new practice of
suspending sentence for misdemean-
ors has failed to meet expectations
In the large majority of cases in this
state the petty offenders have taken
advantage of the opportunity to avoid
the stigma of terms in jail or at the
industrial school and have, we trust,
become better men and women and
better boys and girls. At least they
have mostly avoided the municipal
courts which is an encouraging fea
ture.

she declared as hampering the prac-

The appalling number OF divorce

due to the fact that our girls are not
being educated and developed along
domestic lines. Yet our common
schools are not doing one thing to
offset this dangerous tendency. Child
