.SH0RTGREN HERE TO
ACCEPT CAMP SITE

Adam Shortgen, of Salem, who has
charge Of establishing convict camps
| in different parts Of the state, was here
last Thursday to confer with Judge
Geo. ID. CulbeItson relative to building
the camp at Shell Rock preparatory ia
! beginning operations on thePortland-
Hood River highway. However, Judge
| Culbertson was not in the city and the
official was unable to come to any
definite decisions. 81 think | will be
able to see the Judge at his Portland
/ home, he said, land thus it will not
be necessary for me to come here
again. We want to bring up six or
seven convcts next week and lay out
the camp. We have selected a site at
a spring Just this side OF the mountain.
| have made arrangements to secure
our supplies Of food from grocers in
Hood River.
Mr.. Shortgen came up from Portland
early Thursday morning and inspected
the ground on which the camp will be
built. 1t is an ideal spot for such a
place. he says. Building the road
around Shell Rock, he thinks, will be
no small task. "Of course, we can't
tell until we get started, he said,
lust how hard the work will be. |
think we will find a steam shovel very
efficient in moving the tons of loose
stone, of which the side of the noun
tain seems to be composed.
As soon as the camp is established a
crew Of twenty-five or thirty convicts
will be brought TO the scene and placed
at work.
In letter received from Z. f. Coov-
ert, Mr.. Benson's 5 legal representative
in Portland, VINO stated that Mr.. Ben
son would be notified of the clubs in

FIRE DESTROYS
TWO RESIDENCES

The homes Of George Lynn and W .
/. Upson on West State street were
destroyed by lire shortly before noon
yesterday. The conhagration origin.
ated IN tent IN the back yard Of the
Lynn property, from what cause is not
known. 1t had made but small head
way when the alarm was turned in and
hremen arrived ON the scene. How
ever, without a water supply, it was
impossible to combat the flames and in
a few moments, famed by a slight
breeze, the building was mass of
tiames. A portion of the furniture of
a single bedroom was saved. The fire
quickly spread to the adjoining resi-.
dence of W. l.. Upson. A bucket bri-
gade was formed and by the valiant
efforts the Volunteer Fire Department
prevented the flames from reaching
the house of Mrs f. r. Brydle lust
east Of the lpson property. A cnain
OF hose was laid to the corner of Sey-
enth and Oak streets, but because Of
the light pressure did small service.
The house of Mr.. Lynn and its con
tents were partly covered by insurance
to the extent of $780, The Upson
house also was covered by policy of
$1,000 and its contents by small pol
icy. The former insurance was with
A. c. Buck and the latter with Geo. d.
Culbertson & Co.
One of the first at the scene of the
fire was Miss Hunt, who is employed at
the Hood River Steam Laundry. She
mounted to the roof of the home of
Miss O'Neil just. west of the Lynn
house and eXtnguished flames started
by falling embers.
No one was at the Lynn home. Mr.
Lynn is employed as deputy assessor
by County Assessor J. Wickham. Mrs
Lynn, who operates the type setting
machine at the Glacier office, did not
know that her home was destrvoyed
until telephone message informed
her that the building was burned To
the ground.

portance that it were well to consider
in planning frocks or ornate dresses
for afternoon and evening
Rufaes OF lace have been placed on
the lower edge of skirts under the
tuuic. There Is little fuiness In these
new skirts. The straight silhouette.
although decidedly removed from the
hobble line of last season, must be adj
hered to ard. therefore, the rufies
must be scant.
Many long sleeves show rurles at
the wrist. Fine laces are used for
this, giving soft folds OF white over
the hand.
Lace Is used for jabots, piisses,
revers and collarettes on blouges.
Wide and narrow bands and edgings
are equally popular. Frills OF black
and white lace fall down the fronts
OF cloth frocks. They are in the ma
jority OF esses adjustable, and one

The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1912-04-12

Wichita, Kan, April 12.-These are
some of the reasons why boys go
wrong as told by superintendent H.
w. Charles of the State Industrial
school of Topeka, in an address to city
teachers of Wichita at the high Schooi.
Mr. Charles has spent many years
looking after boys who have gone
wrong, and these many years of ex-
perience in a way better equip him to
give proper answer to the question
he discussed which was, what
Causes the Boy to Go Wrong?"
While Mr.. Charles rubbed the wrong
way on the dull minded teacher (if
there were any such in his audience),
on the knuckles of liquor interests
when he said that the drink habit was
largely responsible for most of the
cases of bad family environment. This
makes the mother have to work and
keeps her from giving time to the de-
velopment of her children, said the
speaker. The father also has a bad
Influence, and the drunkard's children
are the first to be in the juvenile de-
1inquent class, he asserted
Industrial Change to Blame.
The great industrial change which
has passed over the United States in
the past 80 years has also had a great
effect upon increasing juvenile delin-
Quents, said the speaker. He gave IL
Illustrations of juvenile crimes caused
either by the working of mothers in
mother and children. When either of
these is the condition, said the speaker,
children are thrown into such associ-
atoms that they cannot help but go
wrong.
Mr. Charles also said that education
was essential to the development of
man Men who are not developed re
main like child and consequently
are not as strong morally, was Mr.
Charles opinion of the cause of much
crime.
While Mr.. Charles did not believe
that the vast number of divorces in
the United States had an undue influ-
ence upon juvenile crime, he thought
that divorce was an indication OF poor
home Influence for children He quot
ed statistics which showed that In
1905 there were s., 600 divorces in the
United states and but 10000 in all of
Furope Canada and Australia He
also quoted figures showing that there
was one divorce in every twelve mar
RACES in the United States. and one di-
vorce in every eight marriages in KAN
sas san Francisco was the most un-
holy" city. for it showed a record of
one divorce in every three marriages.
Present school systems are trad1-
tional rather than beneficial, said the
speaker. in discussing what the school
should do for the children of today.
He thought that there must be some
thing wrong with a system which, in
his opinion. produced present results
in preparing children for mems places
in the world.
