Per million of population. the num-
Der OF felonious homicides in 1909 was
as follows: In Canada, 5; Germany,
3; England, II; France, Is; Belgium,
the most criminal country in Europe.
10; in the United States. 1923 Owing
TO lax enforcement of law, and the
mistaken policy Of giving the criminal
too many chances for escaping the pen
atty of his crime, only one out OF sew
enty-four murderers In the United
States is convicted. Political and per-
sonal influence and the maudIin senti-
ment that regards crime as disease and
a murderer as 8 sick man to be cured,
instead of a dangerous beast to be ex-
terminated, permit the average man
killer in America to escape with seven
years in prison. Crime is crime. The
murderer Is murderer The sooner
American prisons cease to be pleasant
ssnitariums for mental abnormals and
become institutions for punishment of
criminals by hard work and rigid dis
cipline the better for our national rep
utation.

Spare, woodman. spare the beechen
tree." wrote Thomas Campbell a cen
fury ago, The appeal was needed, and
the great beech which stood near Ard
wall House. Kirkcudbright, Scotland,
was not cut down. Now, however, it
has blown down, AMI another of the
famous trees which have inspired
poetry, or been glorifed by tradition,
is gone. The elm which suggested to
George P. Morris his poem of similar
sentiment was probably cut down
years ago.

SECRET FRATERNITIEs IN SCHOOLS.

formed merely as source of recreation and
sport, They soon become discredit to any
