the boy said.
Imagine a boy who felt like he
hadn't done right during the day un-
less he had committed a theft! How
ever, the little fellow seemed to real
ize that he was the victim Of an evil
power and requested that he he given
work on the farm where he wouldn't

Framed His Parole.
Another boy. after getting his pa
role and after becoming a young man,
went to Minneapolis and married.
After he was married, he wrote back
to the school that he had had his
parole framed and kept it hanging in
the front room of his home. He was
proud of it.
Mrs. Charles also related a rather
amusing experience she had short time
after DR.. Charles had taken charge of the
school.
One day one Of the boys came to her
and told her he had an awful pain in his
"tummy" and wanted some Jamaica
ginger. Immediately. Mrs. Charles hurried
he requested. Also. she allowed him to
take lay of from his work.
The next day another boy had an aw-
ginger dose. Again Mrs. Charles took him
to the hospital and attended to him In
person.
Then. ''tummy" pains developed into an
epidemic, and Mrs. Charles grew suspic-
ious. However. when the next boy came
with a request for ginger, she showed
the same solicitude, only she added a
little quinine to the Dose and the jelly
cake complaint stopped as suddenly as
they had begun.
When asked how many Of the inmates
have parents living, DR.. Charles said
about 30 per cent. He added that a much
smaller per cent have parents who are
living together in established homes and
said that disrupted homes was the cause
OF many boys being sent to the school.
