What Is BoyviIle:


What is Boyville? is question on
many lips just now A few words con-
corning it may not seem out of place
as the organization is just being
launched in the city.
Boyville is the juvenile citizenship
of Hammond. 1t is made up Of all
boys who live here. 1t is a general
movement among the boys under 10
for their betterment. 1t is non-sectar-
ian and is under the auspices of the
Mems club of Hammond. Any boy
who wants to play square is a good
citizen.
The only requirement in the Boyville
organization is that the boy promises
to play every game square. whether
sport or living. and in the night time
be as square as in the sunlight
1t is a club where boys rule. They
run the enterprise. elect officers, con-
duct bank and other enterprises. They
will have Sunday afternoon meetings.
entertainments from time to time. win
have a circus. athletics. contests and
political parties. 1t gives the boys an
opportunity to see the larger things
which uplift, it puts them into a real
live game.
Teaches Honor.
1t teaches a fellow TO honor his
mates as man to man. A fellow can
not long remain a cheat and be a good
citizen 1t is the greatest citizen fac
tory in the world. 1t makes a clean,
upright life popular for a boy 1t gives
boy vision Of great deeds. great men,
great ideals, by seeing, hearing and
touching them. The states foremost
men and some from outside viii come
in touch with the boy life of Ham
mond.
Boys will follow the popular side. and
the Boyville plan is TO make good
things popular rather than the evil.
An editorial from the Anderson Gnd)
Bulletin of Feb "a. 1908 may be of
interest here.
The Boyville Campaign.
Judging from Saturday afternoon
doings in Anderson. politicians. states
men and presidents can soon be sup
piled in sufficient quantity and on de-
mand from this city.
The Boyville campaign and election
demonstrated that we have the timber
and that it is of the proper kind. Al
that is needed is ten or fifteen years
| seasoning and then the demand can be
supplied without looking further.
States like Pennsylvania wanting
set of officers who can manage affairs
without graft will come here for theil
supply.
The national and state Legislative,
halls will be filled with clean, homes:
Intelligent lawmakers and grating city
contractors will have no corrupt coun
ell to go to for the key that rob-
the taxpayer.

MOTHERS OF GREAT MEN.

Association

When you trace the beginnings of
great man. behind him you will find a
noble mother
1t is notable that great men seldom
have great sons. Is it because the
sons inheritance of character is di-
vided by two? Unless he has a great
mother as well as q great father the
son may inherit but half his fathers
talent
On the other hand, If the son has a
great mother his Inheritance seems to
be multiplied by two, so equable are
the laws Of heredity.
Many great men have been the sons
of weak or dissolute fathers. The
mother factor counted.
Methodism came from Susan Wesley,
mother Of John and Charles.
The wide hipped physique and daunt-
less spirit of Napoleon's mother made
him what he was.
Washingtons greatness came from
his mother.
Had it not been for his remarkable
mother James A. Garfield might have
spent his life on the Erie canal 1t
was that widowed mother who gave
him his aspirations for education and
put into him the strong religious tend
encies of his after life.
Thomas Lincoln, the father, was a
good enough sort Of his kind Nancy
Hanks Lincoln was one of the earths
noblest women. 1t was she-that will
derness mother-who bequeathed to
him his greatness and his white souled
goodness. 1t was she who, dying in
that Spencer county cabin, put her
hand on the head Of her nine-year-old
son to say:
II am going away, my boy, but
want you to remember that your moth.
er wants you 70 be a good and a useful
man."
And Lincoln never forgot
Many years after he had stood by
the grave of that mother, d freckled
hatless, miserable boy, he said, "AI
that l am or ever hope to be owe K
| my angel mother"

More than you realize, the destiny Of
your boy lies with you. Tie him to yol
as by hooks of steel. Pour into hi.
plastic soul the noblest and best tina
is in you. And so shall he rise up anC
