Society or the courts complete what
their environment begins, and then
some have the gall to blame the poor
victim for it all.
Here is boy who never knew the
influences of good home loving
mother to watch over and protect
him from evil, no fatherly words of
advice and encouragement to guide
him, no kind words from anybody
nothing but kicks and cuffs, with
everybody's hand against him and
nobody big-hearted or fair-minded
enough to take his part except the
man who signs himself Jack Rob-
bins" What a reflection on TWEEN
tieth century justice. What trav-
esty on human nature in general. The
poor boy has never had the ghost of
a chance in this world except to
graduate in the school of crime
through hard luck and adversely
vicious victim of a still more vicious
environment
What this boy needs is corrective
influences something to occupy his
mind; some schooling if he is de-
ficient in that, or some pleasant, con-
genial work that will enable him to
support himself in order that he may
become sef-reliant and independent
and not burden to anybody. Then
he ought to be placed in nice, pri-
vate home, presided over by one who
would take an interest in him and
take the place of a mother to him
one who has reared boys herself and
knows how to handle the problem.
l dare say with the uplifting and
eleyating influences of good home
to guide, encourage and inspire him
and something in life to work for,
this boy, this by-product of a vicious
environment not of his making, will
give the world the lie and demon

him paroled or discharged by the

They revealed tragedy of error,
perpetrated by Col. Seely, secretary

Col. Seely took all the blame upon
his own shoulders. He frankly de-
clared that he had made great ms

1t has been said that the world
needs a few people who can do many
things well, but it needs many peo-
pie who can do one thing well. Con-
centration brings the best results, and
we need not mourn because we can
not do the work our neighbor is do

any work that ministers to the welfare
