country, eager to save both the kitten
and the milk, made grab for its cat

milk, and what milk his clothing had
not absorbed was flooding the cellar

PONDER THIS CHILD PROBLEM
Six-Year-OId "Jack the Ripper" Proves
Puzzle to the Psychol-

Chicago.-Did you ever meet six
year-old Jack the Ripper" SO to
speak? A mere child with a blood
lust that impels him to strangle cats.
with his bare hands and attempt the
slaughter of babies with gusto?
Such a one has been examined by
the psychopathic laboratory OF the
municipal court and pronounced per
feet specimen of sadist. Chief JUS
tice Harry Olson told about him be-
fore the alienists and neurologists in
session the other day.
This boy has had an exciting career
In the last year, and so have others,
as he has been adopted eight times.
The eighth adoption was month ago,
and he soon will be ready for the
ninth candidate.
Grown men would hesitate about
strangling cats with bare hands, but
this boy delights in 1t. Wringing
chickens heads off is a mild amuse-
ment to him. The climax came soon
after his seventh adopter had returned
him to the county court as impossible
DR.. w. J. Hickson, head Of the psyche
pathic laboratory, and his wife took
an interest in the case when foster
parent No. reported the child had
tried to throw a girl baby under a
car
Don't you know It was naughty to
throw the baby under the carp
queried Mrs. Hickson of the Juvenile
Ripper" why. you might have
killed her.
Sure" responded the boy. What
do you take me for? That's what
tried to do"
An Oak Park clergyman, undismayed
by his record, took the boy. asserting
that, psychologists to the contrary not.
withstanding. every one had been ere
ated in Gods image and could be
made perfect The boy, he said. was
no exception. The psychologists are
awaiting a report from Oak Park
