mo one gets the full measure of Joy
out of "A find who does not set il up

Awhile ago Sheriff Byers declared
he would wage a campaign against
wife deserters i'm Houghton county
and bring as many as possible of them
TO justice, being convinced that such
a course would result in a notable re-
duction of this class of crime in the
county and also result in a big saving
to the taxpayers. Mr.. Byers is MAX
ing good in this promise. He already
has caused the arrest of a number Of
alleged wife deserters and more war
rants are yet to be served.
Now the sheriff states that he
is going TO get after juvenile delin-
quents, particularly young girls who
roam the streets at night, frequent
questionable places or act in any man
ner which might be considered HARM
full. This decision grows out of the
recent arrest of a fourteen-year- old
girl in a West Hancock resort. Mr..
Byers promises to make good in this
!audable movement, also. In Hancock
nineteen warrants were issued this
morning for young men and girls and
similar action will be taken in other
towns if conditions are found to war
rant it.
The sheriff is to be commended for
his interest in this reform. The morals
of many Of our young people are at
stake, and we believe Mr. Byers can
and will accomplish great deal of
good in the work he has entered upon
