Boy City was founded last summer
by Judge Willis Brown, formerly OF
the Juvenile court OF Utah. who be-
lieves that the civic, rather than the
military, idea OF discipline should
prevail In teaching boys.
Boyvilles have. sprung up all over
the country. as a result or Judge
Browns work, and these have sent
most OF the groups now here. These
Boyvilles are conducted under the
auspices OF public school systems,
churches and Y M. C. AS.
Boy City is divided into wards and
each ward elects It's own alderman. A
council meeting Is held every morn
ing. A city ordinance forbids smoking
on the grounds. Recently an offender
who resisted was hustled to the dock
and threatened with q ducking until
he threw his cigaret away. Girls or
about sixteen years of age came to the
grounds and offered several boys
cigarets. Next morning the council
passed a resolution forbidding admis-
