ConstantinopIe.

Constantinople was named after the
emperor of Rome. Constantine the
Great, and founded in A. D. 32S on the
site of the old Greek town of Byzan
hum. II was also called New Rome
and was the eastern capital of the Ro
man empire tor IL centuries. Greece
was part of the Roman empire of the
East, and later the empire was often
called the Greek empire. The Greek
church preserves its name to this day
In 1853 Constantinople was taken by
the Turks. and since then has been the
capital of the Ottoman empire. The

HOME TRAINING TO BLAME
Northwestern University Professor
Points Out What He Considers
One of Crimes Chief Causes.

Prof. Robert H. Gault of Northwest
ern university, in report submitted
to the crime commission of Chicago,
declares that mental deficiencies and
unfit homes are the contributory
causes of crime.
Another report submitted by Pro-
fessor Gault constitutes an attack OF
the present law by showing that Grim
inals whose history should exclude
them from probation are given their
liberty. The cause Of the latter, the
sociologist says, is inadequate investi-
cation
Compulsory education until the age
of sixteen is one recommendation
made by the professor to solve the
delinquent boy problem, and another
suggestion is that vocational training
should begin at any time, optional with
the pupil and his advisers-meaning
his parents or guardians.
In the statistics compiled in the
report, it is shown that many delin-
Quent boys on probation in Cook coun-
ty are not working at all, others work
only half time, and Of those that work
many are errand boys, wagon boys,
bellhops, and have other occupations
that contain no future for them. So
aiety would best be served, it is con-
.ended, if the delinquent boy had work
where he realized he had a chance to
make something Of himself The Liv-
Ing Church.

At The OWL
BY SHERWOOD GRANT.


Winnie stepped out on the broad.
old-fashioned porch and looked at the
house that was to bring them all
plenty of ready cash, if not a fortune.
1t was all they had left that seemed
tangible. They had been left to the
care of an uncle after their parents
death, and only the house up at Med
bury remained after the passing of
Uncle George.
Georgia, named for her uncle hope
fully, had fixed ON the solution. They
were on the post road. They would
turn the old house into the coziest of
tearooms, a sort of inn of happiness,
and, since an old owl appeared to be
its sole tenant, they caught the bird,
stuffed it after it had given up the
ghost, and bestowed its name and
symbol on the new venture for Luck.
81 think l hear a car" Winnie's
head was raised in expectancy.
The car came into view. turned into
the drive under the two big elms and
drew up before the porch steps. Two
young men sprang out. They seemed
worried and excited.
'How do you do, ladiesT' one said,
raising his cap. We've had an acci-
dent. Would it be possible for US to
get shelter here and some sort of med
lcal help?"
Alice rose to the emergency at once.

below the gully, and it tipped the car

"Well, of all things" CALCULATED
ME, in deep, cautious whisper out in
the kitchen. Kings Rest was thea one
place of interest around Medbury.
Paul Hampton was the third inf the
party. Georgia told the other girls
he was a well-known writer. The doc
tor rode over from the village and at
once began his examination of Tom
Bowen, cousin of the Kings. Just
as he emerged with a favorable dag

parently.
