CEVERAL scenarios have come in
lately that have dealt with the Sc
rious problem of the girl in the
reform school One story which has
interested me more than the others is a
gripping, tense, emotional drama of
which the skeleton is the character de-
velopment Of girls who are forced by
social conditions to spend years in a
reform school The scenario was writ
ten BY an eliminate of one Of the larg-
est schools fer girls in the country, and
when she asked for personal inter
view. l granted it gladly. feeling it was
the duty of every American girl to &C
quaint herself with the existing condi-
lions in such institutions.
So interested was I in what she had
to tell me that, few weeks afterward,
! was taken through 4 reform school by
one Of the matrons.
There I was permitted to ask ques-
tons freely of the girls, but the an
swers were, while polite, always mono
syllable and non-committal. They were
much more anxious to ask me questions
about the movies than to answer any
questions about themselves or their sur
rOundings.
How attractively neat the girls are, y
] remarked as they passed by, dressed
in dark blue cahco dresses and little
light, wcll-starched aprons, which stole
from the idea Of uniforms
you should see MS on Sunday piped
one Of the girls, when we go to chapel
for religious services. Then we wear
our pretty wooden dresses or Bingham
summer dresses of various colOrs and
made according to the way we like
them best. I am one of the girls who
get dresses from home. and sometimes
goodies she added with twinkling eyes.
Study wing them earnestly, ! was i'm
pressed with the belief that these girls
are not much different from other girls
of then age who are not so unfortu-
nately incarcerated. They may have
risen from a lowee environment and
their mistakes may have been even law
lessly serious, but still their paths have

LOT as to have inefaceably marked

y released from the school
II is said that from eighty-five to
ninety per cent Of the girls sent to re-
form schools have no mothers. bad
r1otherS. or stepmOthers, who have not
understood them. II impresses upon us
the important part a mother plays in the
lives Of her children. I doubt if one
single girl seat to a reform school has
had what we would consider the ideal
mother
OF course, not all of the girls sent
TO these schools have transgressed
against society Many OF them are
there because they have no homes and
selfish relatives are tired OF supporting
them. while they are too young and in
experienced to earn their livelihood.
Many Of the girls who have been taken
TO the schools from notorious resorts

Massage Of any kind and for any pur-

in their middle and describe small cir
cles with the anointed finger tips work

toward the ears. Dinlples in youth are
apt to degenerate into burrows in later
years unless the cheeks are kept well
filled out, and the rotary treatment must
therefore include deeper muscle massage.

tissues vigorously, working them well In

The matron informed me that upon such

Yesterday good and bad, intelligent

came the knowledge of all Today every
thing possible is done to prevent this,
and the system has been changed. The
girls are classified. merHally, morally.
and physically.
In the world itself are associated
those who are both good and bad, and
the reform school is only the epitome
of the world The girls who are bright
and have sufficient character to sur
mount their temptations will rise in
after life. while those who have inner
tied a weakness Of mind and body that
surrenders to adverse circumstances
will be the same age-old problem until
