Why Not Drill All Prisoners?

With reference to a marked change
for good in the appearance and moral
welfare of several small Bay State
cities, the Boston Transcript says that
the slouching ranks of corner loafers
have suddenly been cut down in NAL
den, Melrose, Wakefield and Everett to
a small relic of their former numbers.
At least it is certain that for six
months past no young man has been
hailed before the M!ddlesex court to
answer charges Of street loafing or of
any OF the minor offences incident to
IT, Apparently the mere announce
ment. made by Judge Bruce six months
ago, that in the future he would re-
quire all young men convicted of
minor offences to undergo a course of
military drill. has been enough to cure
the evil. 1t is evident that I've bare
suggestion of the physical exercise, the
discipline and the restraint involved in
drill. is so painful to habitual idlers
that they would rather mend their
ways than undergo it.
If this means is so far superior to
seedlings. fines and jails there must
be a wholesome objection to the disci-
pline and physical exercise Of military
drill on the part of those Of worthless
and criminal tendencies. Why not drill
oil prisoners, but not in a manner or
place to convey that patriotic service
is a punishment.

Colonel Roosevelt says that II the
next political campaign is waged on
the tariff issue such an appeal would
be an appeal to the belly and not to
the soul Of this nation. But a man
with an empty belly is mighty likely
to smash one Of the ten command
ments and thereby imperil his soul.
The Lord employed the miracle Of the
leaves and fishes to feed the multi
tude. After they had been fed he
gave them spiritual advice.

A Creed
(Author Unknown.)

(Author Unknown.)
Let mo be a little kinder,
Let me be a little binder
To the faults Of those about me;
Let me praise a little more;
Let me be, when l am weary,
Just a little bit more CHEEKY:
Let me serve a little better
Those that l am striving for.
Let me be little drawer
When temptation bids me WAIVER:
Let me strive a little harder
To be all that l should be,
Let me be a little meeker
With the brother that is weaker:
Let me think more of my neighbor
And a little less of me.
Let me be a little sweeter.
Make my life bit completer,
BY doing what l should do
Every minute Of the day:
Let me toll, without complaining,
Not a humble task disdaining;
Let me face the summons calmly
When death beckons me away.

publicity is paramount. He says: II

when they are on their death beds
financially and industrially, they turn
to the Republican party. Our saliva

an educated electorate. Confidence in
