Defiance of the statutes and Of the
laws Of morality 10 fostered by the fail
ure of American states to think thru
from beginning to end their provision
for delinquent. neglected, n depend
.ent children. Henry p. c. Ditzen. q
probation officer Of Davenport, Iowa,
has pointed out how his state falls to
be q good parent because the laws pre-
vent the admission Of q pregnant girl
into the state industrial school and at
the same time make no provision for
adequately dealing with her. ME-. Dit
zen, according to The Survey, said:
After confinement girls may be dis
charged if found to be pregnant. and
this offers an inducement to them to
become SO. If the rule is correct, a girl
in that condition can defy the Law, be-
cause she knows she can not be cons
mitted to the industrial school and her
g will prevent her from being put
into jail-she can neither be punished
nor reformed"
Mr.. Ditzen cited another case where
the present scheme &C state Institutions
Iowa and in other states breaks
down-that of a consumptive boy
charged with delinquency:
1.-THE lad is refused admission by the
industrial school On the ground that
it is not a sanatorium, and by the state
sanatorium on the ground h q 1t is not
a home for ~delinquents. He was ex-
PEELED from the public schools as be-
dangerous to the health OF the
other children. The only institution
willing to receive him was the public
street, and there he was at last report
an outcast. He has no chance to be
reformed, no chance to be cured. no
chance to be educated-except in the
ways of the street. That lad may do
anything he wants to, car be as crimi-
nal and tough as he pleases. for he
can not be put into Jail, because he Is
less than 16 years old and Is not
wanted at the Industrial school"

This is the time OF the year when
folks wear clothes. Strange, but true
And this is the time OF the year when
the male manages to make a scarecrow
Of himself by the clothes he wears, and
the female toys out in all Of the colors
Of the rainbow. In Jul stores these
days one sees this. It's too cold for
the men to loaf on the sidewalk and
they gather around the stoves enjoying
the warmth and being sociable. Any
one thing seems good enough for the
man. A moth eaten fur coat is worn
with pride, while the wife has on her
best Sunday go to meeting dress, fine
cloak, and good furs. 1t is rarely a
woman has on anything but nice foot
wear, but the e well, everything
goes Overshoes that are actually TIED
on with strings, cover old shoes that
have seen many better days. 1t is not
altogether the farmers that show this
don't care feeling. Townmen are seen
on the streets with their wives wear
ing a SIS hat and the man with a So
cent cap. A couple Of this kind came
into a store not long ago, the wife
wearing $3.50 kid gloves and the man
a 10-cent pair Of cloth mittens. Per-
haps the reason is, it takes all Of he
family income to buy the "wimmen's"
clothes,

AN ADVERTISING SUGGESTION,

Inc DeS MolT1eS Register and Leader
suggests that Professor Holden should
be made governor of Iowa because Of
the advertising value of such an cleo
ton. A farm governor, the Des Moines
newspaper suggests. would draw all
yes to Iowa where 'Cne conspicuous
farm governor, an advance agent CT
farm property would advertise the
state in a way hat would mean great
things not only for Iowa but for the
whole Mississippi valley
What great things pleaseo Let the
advertiser Of the advertising specify
just what the advertising thus adver-
tised is to bring of peculiar greatness
to Iowa and the Mississippi valley that
the election Of q tried and concededly
capable man like Clarke will not.
If q conspicuous farm governor is
indicated why not seek out one of the
hundreds Of Iowa farmers who have
made good on their own farms, who
have turned a pair Of hands and will
ingness to work with them and a brain
to guide them into half sections and
sections Of fertile acres worth 5000 per
acre? Men who began as farm hands
and have by wise farming, superior
business capacity and careful study of
conditions risen to wealth and promi-
hence. There is a great deal of bust
ness to be done thru the executive
farm governor is to be insisted upon
why not a farm governor who has not
only brains but general knowledge OF
farming, large business capacity and
keenness, shrewd farm and business
judgment developed in Iowa? There
are thousands such in Iowa. They are
a great part Of great Iowa and the
promise Of a greater Iowa. One of
these would offer the Iowa press agent
and ad man the opportunity Of a cen
fury. But, even at that, what greater
things would it bring to Iowa and the
Mississippi valley than have come and
will continue to come under clean
business administration Of the execu-
tive office under capable and trust
worthy and tried men from any walk OF
of life or of any occupation? If an
agricultural expert is absolutely neces-
sary why not Dean Curtis with his
years Of capable management of the
greatest agricultural state school in the
United States? But in all candor what
could he bring that is not coming and
to come under honest and capable
executives?
Advertising is very well in It's way. II

tiser gets rich while we are doing that
