Willie Whitla was kidnapped, and
ten thousand dollar ransom exacted.
He was treated with the utmost kind.
ness. Had the ransom been Withheld,
there is no reason to believe that he
would have been treated harshly.
Had his captors decided to put him to
death, they undoubtedly would have
done it humanely. Now over this
one boy, just one boy, the entire
country has been aroused, and proper
lY so, and his case has occupied the
leading papers, besides receiving edi-
torial treatment Legislators have
been moved to draft bills making the
punishment for kidnappers among the
severest possible, life imprisonment or
death.
But what about those other boys,
thousands of them yearly, perhaps
your boy or mine, next year? They
are not snatched suddenly from their
parents sight and ken, but they are
truly taken. Instead of being treated
with kindness and consideration, the
captors treat them in such fashion,
under the guise of kindness at first,
that they are rendered weak, sinful,
debauohed, depraved, and are finally |
IN in N nd
cast out by the very persons who are
responsible for their condition. In
stead of the agony of a sudden, COM
plete, final disappearance of their
boys, the parents have the agony and
shame of seeing them daily degener-
ating, until both father and mother
say, "Would God they had died be-
fore they began this career" "
And yet the liquor traffic, through
official utterance, says to the liquor
dealers: 1--WE must have boys.
Our old customers are dying off. We
shall be ruined unless we can teach
the boys to drink. Be sooiable with
them; make them have a good time
treat them when you can; do every
thing to get them to drinking.
Nickels invested now in boys will re-
turn dollars to our tills in later years.
And yet we ''license" this traffic.
Fellow citizens: 1t is time for the
whole country to grow "hysterioal"
over this deliberate and damnable
traffic in boys. And that is just what
is happening; hence the prohibition
wave;" hence "no-license' in Stat
ford this year; hence a "dry town"
next year, if you do not forget that
the saloons feed on boys as young,
as pure, as lovable as Willie Whitla,
and yours.

Ann Arbor. Mich.-In the history Of
american education there are few rec
Hds to compare with that OF President
James Burrill Angel OF the University
Of Michigan. who celebrated his eigh-
tieth birthday recently.
DIR. Angel has been At the head OF
one Of the greatest of state uniyersi-
ties for 81 years and his record in this
respect is surpassed only by that Of
President Charles Norton Eliot OF Har-
card, who has resigned after - years

.inues In active service. He has been
professor or university presiden, for
j5 years and his services to the pub
lie rs = diplomat and member of ma
tional commissions have been of a dis
tinguished order.
The birthplace of President Angel
was Scituate. Rhode Island As boy
he lived the life of country lad and
attended district schools. Eager to
learn, he attended = Quaker academy
and prepared for Brown university.
which he entered In 1s45. and from
which he was graduated four years
later. with the highest honors of his
class. His passion for all knowledge
was shown by his equal devotion to
classics and sciences.
After his graduation from Brown he
taught for = year, then his failing
health made him live an out-of-dOor
life for year. He took . horseback

italy ne spent two years and returned
to the United States to accept the
chair of modern languages in his alma
mater.
In 1860 he resigned his professor
ship to become editor of the Provi-
dence Journal. Six years of editorial
work satisfied him that his true field
Of life work lay in teaching, and he
became president of the University OF
Vermont, where he served five years
until 1871. when he was offered and
accepted the presidency of the Univer.
sity Of Michigan, Two years before
he had been offered this important
post, but had refused it. but the great
opportunities at the western state In.

his mind.

the direction of the university when 1t
had LILO students; in October. 1908.
the enrolment in all departments was
4.415. This great increase Of students
is attributed principally to his work.
In 1880 President Angel was ap-
pointed United States minister to Chi.
ma, at time when the highest diplo-
macy was needed. Many questions
of commercial importance had arisen
and the vexed problem of Chinese i'm.
migration was to be settled. He be-
came also chairman of a special com.
mission to negotiate two treaties with
China and discharged his diplomatic
duties in the Orient with credit. In
| 1887 he was appointed minister pleni.
potentiary for the United States in the
negotiation of treaty with Great Bri-
tain over the North Atlantic fisheries.
In 1895 and 1896 he was chairman Of
the United States commission on deep
waterways that Investigated the canal
possibilities between the great lakes
and the Atlantic seaboard. For one
year, 1897, he served as minister to
Turkey, at time when the utmost

tial.
The ruddy complexion, sprightly
step and general vigor of President
Angel show that his so years are worn
lightly in a physical sense, while his
keen intellect and great memory speak
Of unfailing intellectual powers. Four
years ago he presented his resignation
to the board of regents Of the univer.
sity, in the conviction that his days OF
usefulness were drawing to 4 close
and that younger man might well
take his place. The refusal of the
board to consider the resignation was
testimonial to President Angells
great services and his lack of Impair
il ment. Graduates and students of Mich
igan know that their beloved president
has passed the average life Of man
and that in the course of nature hia
labors soon must draw to a close, bu,
they recognize with admiration In
