This week a Radiator was stolen
from the Garage of Messrs. Lee

boys which was also recovered by
the officers and the accused
brought before the City Court and
severely reprimanded. Most of
these acts of petty thievery have
been committed in the day time,
but were the Offic ers to take into
custody all children under II
years that are permitted to roam
the streets at night they would
very probably not get into such
company that would lead them
astrav. Parents themselves should
see that their children are under
their own roof after nightfall I'M
less thev are accompanied by an
adult. Nothing more than pro-
miscous hanging around street
corners lead these boys into ma
licious michief which is bound to
make criminals of them when
they become older. There is alb
solutely no use of having a crrfew
law on our statute books if it is
not enforced by the officials and
as the law is good one we would
like to see it rigidly enforced.

Mr.. Dulany has made this Parish

He has received a great many

not have made better selection.

At the National Child Labor confer

subject of preparing charter for all

In discussing this phase oil the question
Edward y. Chopper, national secretary
OF the Child Labor Committee for the
northern states, said;
Nearly every state in the union has
on it, statute books today mass Of
legislation for the welfare OF children.
Some of it is archaic; some is extreme;
and not a little is contradictory and un-
enforceable. Fundamentally the diff
Guilty lies in that old and vital defect OF
lack OF vision, lack of the power OF CO.
ordination. The relationship between the
various branches OF child welfare work Is
remarkably intimate but quite Otter 80

caPes realization by the very workers
themselves.
In their enthusiasm for improving
conditions they forget such elementary
principles as, for instance. that the pe g.

public relief OF children from want must

minimized and detracted from the ser

their political influence gained by their
economic power they have incorporated
this misconception into governmental
and legal theory. 1t is against this in
equality, this injustice. that thc workers
are now directing the power OF the labor

SLOWLY the workers are learning 70

As producers they have the anrid in
