One Of the eligibility rules of the
Washington high schools prohibits a
player in championship games to nave
played for more than four years. The
rule reads, May not participate in
local championship games for more
than four years. Any participation in
one inter-high school championship con-
test in any branch of athletics shall
be construed as competition for one
year in all branches" This is expected
to keep one or two stars out of basket
ball games after February and one or
two out of baseball.
As a high school player must have
been in school for practically a half
year, that is until he shall receive one
semester and two advisory marks, one
or two teams will suffer in consequence.
Smith and Culberson now trying out
for the Western team in basketball will

Good men are gradually becoming
more interested in those who are
bad. With each passing year there
is evidence of more general concern
about the extent of crime and the
number of criminals. The law-sbid-
ing citizen may for purely selfish
reasons desire less crime. Let us
hope that highest motives impel
most men to strive to reduce the
number of criminals. BY consulting
records any one may learn the num-
Der of inmates of correctional ano
penal institutions. A knowledge OF
the world that comes from mingling
with all kinds of citizens convinces
the moralist that there are many cor
rupt and pronouncedly vicious char
acters outside of prison walls.
The writer knows that all re-
spectacle men wish to see falling
off from the army of the incarcerat-
ed, and believes that the majority

can be depended on to assist in prop
er efforts to accomplish the desired
end, but is we'll aware that few
know what to do or where to begin.
How is the number of criminals to be
lessened? Is there something to take
the place of prison discipline? Can
we save some men from being
branded as convicts?
Surely some means must be found
to make it unnecessary for the state
and the nation to go on increasing
the number and capacity of our peni-
tentiaries. Reformation of the real
criminal is very difficult task. A
very few have succeeded in this kind
of work. Among those who have
softened the stony hearts of hard
ened criminals and brought tears of
repentance to convicts' eyes, the one
who is recognized as being most sue
cessful throughout this country is
Maud Darlington Booth. There are
but few others who have succeeded
in efforts to restore justly condemned
men to a normal place in society. So
many failures have been met with
in this phase of uplift work that
most people cannot be blamed for
thinking that very little can be done
in the way of lessening the number
of criminals by beginning with the
inmates of penal institutions. To &C
complish desired results we must
study the criminal, and get as &C
curate a history as possible of his
immoral life. BY tracing the steps

THE IRISH STANDARD

he took prisonward and finding out
what are the chief factors and influ-
ences that weaken and ruin the char
acter of youth facts are obtained that
are of great value in reducing the
number of those who are uncon-
sciously heading towards prison
bars. They who labor zealously for
the moral betterment of men in
stripes could better expend their spir-
itual energies with youthful law
breakers.
Best results are achieved by
watching over those who have not
yet committed any very serious
crime, though they have shown
strongly pronounced evil tendencies.
Begin with the boy. Be big broth
er to one who needs your advice,
your encouragement, and in nearly
all cases the mischievous, juvenile
law-breaker will be brought safely
through the most impulsive and the
most dangerous period of life. The
writer is aware that you are not per-
mitted to use even the mildest cor
regional methods with your neigh
boris boy. You are not allowed to
use a moral pruning-knife among
the youth of your locality. The par
ents will not tolerate any such dis
play of Christian zeal. Mothers and
fathers are sometimes blind; at 9TH
er times they look at their own
children through colored glasses.
Though you are sure you can save
them from many heart pangs in the
future, they will not now accept your
proffered aid, or allow you to inter-
fere in their domestic affairs. How
then can you become a big brother
and true friend to the erring boy?
At first thought, there seems no way
to begin-no directive authority that
you can exercise over the delinquent
that will enable you to accomplish
lasting good. There is, however, one
place where you are permitted to as
sumo control over the boy that has
started wrong. The Juvenile Court
gives to good men and women the
rights and authority that is some
times necessary to turn aside a boy
or girl who has started to follow an
evil course.
Of late years there has been en-

to other courts, and it is only when
minor is associated with an adult
law-breaker in the commission of
crime that the case goes to a high
er court.
1t is proper that deepest interest
be taken in erring youth. While
sympathy for nearly all kinds of peo-
pie cited into court is on the in
crease experienced men we'll know
that the best efforts should be ex-
pended on youthful delinquents. Be-
fore the days of the Juvenile Court,
tenderhearted judges grieved over
the fact that boys and girls were
herded with hardened criminals and
tried in the same court by the same
process of law. Those who de-
sired to accomplish lasting good
were saddened at seeing the impress
sionable mingling with the corrupt;
and far-seeing judges realized that
the aim of law-enforcement would
not be thereby attained. Finding
the minor guilty meant imposing
sentence, and imposing a sentence
meant months of Imprisonment
which melted rather than repressed
evil tendencies, and fostered a re-
bellious spirit that oftimes led to
subsequent violations of law.
The establishment of a children's
court is the most important civic
movement in those recent progress
i've times. 1t shows how men can
yield the big stick of the law with
out bringing it down on every Of
Tending head. 1t permits common
sense to take the place of technical
judicature. 1t gives the presiding
Judge an opportunity of acting the
true friend of erring minors instead
of fostering bitterness in young
hearts towards those who administer
the law 1t forbids mingling vicious
and venial transgressors. When cir
cumstances demand ruling by the
Judge it is not sentence imposed
but commitment of boy or girl to
an institution, where earnest efforts
are made to foster in his heart love
of virtue and hatred of vice.
The up-to-date Juvenile Court is a
school for social studies where much
can be learned about incompetent
parents as we'll as wayward chill
dren. Though the sessions of the
Juvenile Court are private, the most
competent judges surround them
selves with both salaried and volun-
teer workers who devote much time
helping to uplift and properly direct
the wards of the court. Representa-
tives of charitable organizations usu-
ally have entree to the children
court Having become acquainted
with many dependents through their
relief work, their grasp of home con
ditions enables them to be of assist
ance in determining what is best tt
do in certain cases.
While tenderness of heart, com
mon sense and perseverance must b.
found in those who deal with way
ward boys and girls, there is ont
personal asset that far surpasses al
others in fitting one to be a com
petent Judge, an efficient probatio,
officer, or real brother or siste
to the needy and erring-that is, re
ligious zeal. This should be at tn
bottom of the desire to better tn
morals of children and adults. Whel
the ultimate aim is the eternal hap
piness of everyone placed in his care
