Some of the convicts became the
most industrious farmers and the most
thrifty and law-abiding merchants in
the country. Their children gave the
lie to the law of Eeredity by becom-
ing veritable gentlemen. Then 1t was
that the people of the former col
onies performed a surprising act OF
grace and confidence by deereeing the
destruction OF all the records of con-
vict banishment and all the sen
tences and orders applying to the
members Of the convict community.
The descendants OF the convicts are
now merged and lost in the Australia
sian Population. They are prominent
in the affairs Of the colonies, and hold
Offices OF distinction. II their origin
is known, no one taunts them with it.

MAKING BETTER BOYS.

The fact that William r. George
has withdrawn from the George Jun
ior Republic, of which he is the found
er, may create the impression that
his unique theories of dealing with
neglected children have proved a
dream
1t will be we'll to recall that of 500
boys who had gone out from the col
ony UP to a recent time, only two had
drifted back to lives of crime. and
some eight had disappeared. All of
these were children who stayed only
two or three months in the colony,
and did not get acclimated
Mr.. Georges work originated from
his dissatisfaction with the superficial
means ordinarily employed to help
Stun children. Herding them out in
the country for a fresh air week, he
felt, sending them back with brighter
faces and stronger muscles, did not
really meet the case They simply
could run a little faster when the po-
lice chased them.
\ He believd that human nature is
largely governed by three motives. De
sire for property, which in the slum
turns to theft; desire for adventure
(which in the slum leads to conflict
with the police; desire for applause
of ones fellows. which develops gang
leaders and lawlessness. Society gets
in bad on all three, by trying to over
turn human nature with penalties.
M. George beli9yed he could enlist
all these motives among his boys
along the side of law and order. So
he established his boy courts, legisla-
ture, prison, schools, farm work, shops.
etc, a community as self governing as
this state.
