hotbeds Of vice, drukenness and
crime, because the Church is
there. Church-members are not
usually criminals, whatever else
they are. Neither are all non
church-members criminals, but
the vast majority Of criminals
come from their class. We're not
the town predominantly Chris
tian. crime would make it inn
possible as home. Therefore,
every man in the community
owes gratitude to the Church.
He profits from it whether he
serves it or not. II is better
burglar insurance than the insur-
ance companies. II makes the
streets safe for his daughters.
The stronger the Church is, the
cleaner, healthier, safer, hap
pier, more respectable the town.
II every man we're in the Church,
it would save most of the ex-
pense for police, judges, lawyers,
and courts. Judge Fawcett tells
us that crime now costs us
500, 600, 900 a year. It would
cost us ten times that If there
were no churches. 1t would cost
us hardly any of that il all were
in the churches. Really, the
man who is living in our crime
free, respectable towns and does
nothing for the Church is living
on charity. He is profiting from
the Church's curb of crime, but
is giving nothing in return.
Then there is a lesson for par
ents in Judge Fawcett's remark
able statement:
Notice that he always insist
ed that boys on parole should
join a Sunday-school class. In
his experience they rarely elapsed
after doing this. . The streets
of the cities are full of idle boys
all day on Sunday. From these
are recruited our future GRIM
inals. Close to any group of
them is a Sunday-school with
many boys. They are our future
citizens. Judge Fawcett says
they never appear in his court.
The implication for parents is
too plain to need enlargement"
The chief work of the Church,
we read in the final paragraph of
this editorial. lis not. indeed,
the curling of crime, the pIotec-
ton of society, the preservation
of order, the sustaining of civ
or the warding-off of
barbarism. Ii is rather "nur-
turing children into the likeness
Of Christ, the redemption of men
from sin, the inspiring of men
to the imitation of Christ, the
preaching of the gospel of Gods
goodness and the brotherhood of
man, the pointing of men to di-
vine ideals. the building of the
new society of Christ on earth"
But this writer is inclined to
believe that testimony to the
with which she is do
ing these things could be found
to match Judge Fawcett's wit
ness to her curb on crime. Lit

THE CHURCH AS A
PREVENTATIVE OF CRIME
Judge Says that Of 2,700 Per-
sons Charged With Crime
None Church Members

in curbing crime seems TO the
editor of The Congregationalist,
Boston, to be pretty satisfactory
answer to those who are harping
upon the present-day Ineffective
ness of our churches. Judge
Fawcett's words. as this paper
quotes them, were: Approx
mately 200 cases have been
brought before me in my five
and a half years of service on
the bench. During all this time
| have never had to try a man
who was at the time Of the al
legged offense, or ever had been.
an active member Of the
Church" This, we are told, was
a deliberate statement, and the
ju lge had even more to say on
the Church's restraining power
in the community. Like this,
too, recalls The Congregational
list, was the recent testimony of
a Chicago judge who had tried
many divorce cases. He said
that rarely, almost never, were
the parties to a divorce suit ac-
tive church-workers." Judge
Fawcett, il seems, has such con-
fidence in the efficiency of church
organizations that the boys he
puts on probation are ordered to
attend Sunday school and church.
As he says:
II have asked each young de-
PENDANT IL he was a member of
or an attendant at a Sunday
school. and | have never been
answered Yes. | believe in
Sunday-schools. When. by means
of suspended sentences or merci-
ful devices. I have seen fit to
give young prisoners opportuni-
ties 10 lead better lives in free
dom. have in every case insist.
ed that the first thing they must
do is to join a Sunday-school.
Such words as these, writes
the approving editor, "are pc
culiarly valuable as medicine for
scoffers and critics of the church
es." AT least, the churches are
restraining their adherents
from crime" He comments
further:
mot long ago certain hater
of Roman Catholicism in a fac
tory-town said that If he could
have his way he would close the
Catholic church. where hundreds
of Poles and Slovacs worshiped.
Wherupon his friend said. Then
you would have hell here in six
months.
II really looks as though the
Christian Church quite efficient
ly justified its existence to the
nation merely as a preventive of
crime, a barrier against relapse
into barbarism. a police agency
in preserving order. preserva-
tive of common virtue and de-
cency. We believe any careful
student of sociology and morals
will sustain Judge Fawcett's
statement that the Church is a
great curb on crime. Further
more, we believe he would agree
that 1t is the wall which holds
the race from falling back into
primeval habits and criminal in
stincts. There is as much truth
as picturesQueness in the habit
of calling those towns holes
where there are no churches and
several saloons"
This being true" certain of
the conclusions which necessarily
follow are thus pointed out:
First of all. this: Most Of our
respectable, attractive commun-
tiles of high moral tone are so

In Love and Marriages.
Hair is certainly most necessary

a baid-headed woman? What charms

woman's goal is usually love and
marriage. Her crowning glory is her

right here In Canon City. there are
thousands of women who are neg
lecsing or lnjuring their hair to such
an extent that 1t is only matter o:
time when 1t will be utterly ruined.
Many women destroy the beauty of
their hair through thoughtlessness or
ignorance of certain facts. They use
curling irons over-heated. or to ex-
cess. which destroys the natural oil
of the hair, causing 1t to split. break.
and come out. They do not shampoo
their hair often enough. or too often
They use soaps or preparations which
contain ingredients positively harm
full to the scalp and hair.
AS result OF such treatment. dam
druff is created. the hair loosens.

commences. unless proper and prompt
precautions are taken in time. Then

bring about an unhealthy scalp and
