Although up to a brighter sky
You turn a brighter brow,
The Little Girl you bade, Don't cry"
Must disobey you now.
Beside the Little Cripples chair
She's kneeling, tearful-eyed,
Although she knows that you foreer
Are On the Sunny Side.
Amid the land that's ever new.
Amid new singers ranks,
There'll be the same deep Joy for you
AS on the Deer Crick Banks.
For with your posies in her hands
And on her lips your hymn,
There Little orphant Annie stands
To kiss her Uncle Jim.
o you who sang The Days Gone By
In your own perfect phrase.
I hear your treble, far on high,
Singing the day of days.
The veil that hid Gods mystery vast
Lifts as curtain does,
And now. Jim Riley. at the last
You Know Who Santa Wuz!
No Gobble-uns'n Git You, Jim!
You've gone across the night
To find amid the seraphin
The Raggedy Man in white.
And in the paths of children's feet
Lit by the childrens smile.
You go unfaltering to meet
The true Cross-Bearin' Chile!
The Funny Little Fellow cries
In vain for you to stay.
You've gone to seek beyond the skies
The Land Of Whereaway.
And "Good-by. Jim the Dwainie elf

indianapolis News)
Out of Detroit there came a day
or two ago a brief announcement
that a public-spirited woman had
decided property worth $4,000 to
the city to be used for the purpose
of establishing a home where chill
dren of criminal tendencies might
be reclaimed. The donor is Sophie
Lyons, who was known years ago
as the shrewdest and ablest woman
criminal of modern times. Today.
she is 20 years old and for a long
time she has led a life that has
been above reproach.
Three decades ago, Sophie Lyons
name was written large in the GRIM
inal records at home and abroad
Paris. London. New York were au
the same 10 Sophie Lyons. She
hunted the world over Her father
was blackmailer. her mother was
thief, her husband was a bank
burglar. Sophie. herself. was a pick
pocket and, in addition. the head
and brains of an organized gang
of thieves as cosmopolitan in their
operations as Sophie was in her own
particular line of law breaking.
In 1896, she committed her last
theft When she emerged from
prison. penniless and broken in
health. she told the police that they
would nave no more trouble with
her. No one believed her. But
Sophie meant what she said. She
disappeared from her old haunts.
Il can make money honestly" she
said. and set about it,
Tt was probably not easy for the
woman 10 break with the friends Of
former DAYS but break with them
she did Then. with years Of ex-
perience behind her-experience in
the ways of the criminal and ex-
perience in the ways OF honest folks
she came out Of her retirement

did not pay Whoever can make
living by breaking the law" she
said, can make a fortune by keen
ing the law" She had proved il
Penniless 20 years ago, today she is

Don't preach sentimental reform

Lyons. show him instead that ne

criminologists have agreed that
Sophie's advice was sound. Tn New
York the police commissioner is
sending police officers TO the CITY
prisons and reform schools TO
preach SOphie's doctrine. II is
effective they say II is making
honest men out o. thieves. Sophie
Lyons life ought 10 be worth study
For 40 years she lived outside the

everywhere as the queen OF crime
she rounded that period in prison
and bankrupt For 20 years she
