Charley Bright as Gunman.
There are gunner and gunner on
the Chickasha police force, and few
gunner who are in the employ of the
city not as policemen. Charley
Bright chances to be one of these.
Saturday evening, while everything
was quiet about the station, Bright
went forth and caught him dog. The
dog was small, but vicious. That's
the reason Charley tied its feet with
a rope and chained it fast to a ring
in the waterworks repair shop before
he pulled his trusty six-gun and began
target practice on the canine. And
the practice resulted fatally to the
dog At distance of three feet, four
and one-half inches, Bright hit the
bulls xeye-nlere correctly speaking,

ly bad but simply have lacked the
proper environment or have not had
the right associations. The immi
grant father with his medieval GUS
toms cannot keep pace with his sons
in the process of AUGMENTATION,
with the result that he sometimes
loses control over them. These boys
when placed under the guidance of
a Big Brother, who will show an
interest in them and direct them
along the right channels, will be
cured of their evil tendencies and
will develop along the right lines.
The Big Brother must be interest
ed in his boy. He should visit his
home, become acquainted with his
parents, study his family history and
see what can be done to improve
home conditions. He should invite
the boy to his own home some eve
ming, ask him to have meal with
him sometimes, invite him to his
place Of business and explain to him
business methods. He should find
out what appeals to his little Bro
Their, whether he prefers good litera
ture, music or art, and encourage
him along these lines. He should
visit the boy at his work, see how
he applies himself, speak to his en-
ployer and get him interested. He
should meet his little Brother as Of
ten as possible and encourage him
to telephone him between times. In
short he should make him feel that
he is his friend and confidant.
The Big Brother Movement does
not however confine itself with de-
linquency cases only and rightly
should not. The main purpose OF
the movement should be to get the
boys before they become delinquent
and to try and prevent this delin-
quency from coming on. To do this
it is necessary to get at the causes
and try to remove them. The CO.
operation of all ether agencies work
ing for the bettermcnt Of social con-
ditions should be enlisted. Home
conditions should be improved.
These, in brief are a few POSSIBLE
tiles of the Big Brother Movement.
1t is yet really in its infancy but its
power for good in the community is
unlimited and it's accomplishments
in the communities where it is firm

of the workers are we'll rewarded by

operetta "Cinderella," and she must
arrange for the tryouts Of the princi-
pals and the chorus. The tryouts
were to take place Friday night.
Perhaps she would like to take part
in it.
Bluma's heart leaped in the NOM
entary hope that she would be
chosen for one Of the parts, were
it even that of the wicked sister
But what ghost of chance did she
have amid SO many trained voices?
Still she must try even if it were to
humiliate her. At least she would
no longer be troubled by vain dreams
and aspirations. 1t was the only
thing to do under the circumstances,
and Bluma was practical enough to
realize that.
All day Friday Bluma was in
fever of excitement. She barely ate.
Evening came and she called for
Elizabeth with burning checks and
trembling knees. Elizabeth gossip
ped freely of the probable candidates
for the various parts. A certain re-
luctance and lack of self-confidence
kept Bluma from confiding her am
billions to her friend She had never
heard her sing. She would laugh at
her. What made her speaking voice
quaver so. Perhaps she had better
not sing at all.
The music room at the high school
was crowded with eager and aspir-
ing music lovers. After the first
rush of greetings was over the &C
companist quietly and deliberately
seated herself at the piano. The di-
rector looked over the eager group
and his keen glance seemed to mark
each ones carriage and personal ap-
pcarance. Did Bluma imagine it, or
was it true that his glance fingered
on her in a rather approving manner.
He made a few succinct remarks
about the Importance Of subjccting
their personal ambitions to the sue
cess Of the play as whole, then,
turning to the pianist, he babe her
play the opening chorus Of the fair
les meet. He distributed the music
to the sopranos and altos, pointing
out the character and tempo of the
operetta as a whole.
The music was light and airy,
breathing the spirit of woodland
echoes, and fairy play. Bluma was
completely fascinated and carried
away in imagination to the very
scenes of the action. 1t seemed TO

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLA
THE BIG BROTHER MOVE
MENT.
By Or. Thomas Ziskin, Chairman
B'nai Birth Committee.

B'nai Birth Committee.
Within the last decade or two
the predominating idea in the field
of social and economic endeavor has
been the conservation of our natural
resources and the prevention of ills,
social as we'll as ply rather than
the curing of them. Among our re-
sources our youth stand out as the
greatest asset to our people and to
our nation, and it was but natural
therefore, that their conservation
and development should receive
some attention from our social work.
crs, and that the prevention of de-
linquency amongst them should be-
come more important than it's pun
ishment.
1t was not until 1899, however,
that any organized effort was made
to give special attention to the err
ring youth, and to recognize that he
should not be handled as the adult
and be sent to Jail or some corrcc-
tive institution for minor cffense
or some error he may have Gem
mitted, but that he should be put
on probation and his case Investigate
ed. Perhaps it was due to some
physical defect that he erred, per-
haps to some home conditions, per-
haps to evil associations, and if this
was the case. these should be cor
rected and the boy put under proper
guidance. 1t was in 1852 that the
first Juvenile Court was established
in Chicago. Cleveland and Denver
followed and now there are Juvenile
courts in practically every large
city in the country.
In the beginning of this move
mcnt, when the delinquent boy was
brought into court his case was in
vestigated and instead Of punish
ment being melted out he was placed
in charge of a probation officer who
looked after all the cases, but this
was soon found to be inadequate as
each boy was case unto himself
and needed special guidance and spc-
cial attention. To meet this difficult
tv there was organized in New
York in 1904 the Big Brother
Movement whereby certain MINI
Der of young men banded together
and volunteered their services to the
Juvenile Court and each promised
to take charge of one boy for whom
he would be responsible. From this
small beginning the movement has
spread over the entire country and
has become great factor in rcduc-
ing and preventing Juvenile delin-

Did You?

Did you give him lift? He's brother of
And bearing about all the burden he can.
Did you give him a smile? He was down
cast and blue,
And the smile would have helped him to
battle it through.
Did you give him your hand? He was slip
ping down hill,
And the world, so | tanCied, was using
him ill.
Did you give him word? Did you show
him the road,
Or did you just let him go on with his load !?
Did you help him along? He's sinner
like you,
But the grasp of your hand might have
carried him through.
Did you bid him good cheeri Just word
and a smile
Were what he most needed that last weary
Do you know what he bore in that burden
OF cares
That is every mans load and that sympathy
Did you try to find out what he needed
from you,
Or did you Just leave him to battle it
through
Do yon know what it means to be losing
the fight.
When lift in time might set everything
right?
Do you know what it means-just the clasp
of hand,
When a man borne about all man ought
to stand?
Did you ask what it was-why the quiver-
ing lip,
And the glstening tears down the pale
cheek that slip?
Were you brother of his when the time
came TO be?
Did you offer TO help him, or didn't you
Dent you know it's the part of brother
of man
To find what the grief is and help when
you can?
Did you stop when he asked you to give
him lift,
Or were YOU so busy you left him to shift?
Oh, know what you say may be true
But the test of your manhood is: What
did you do?
Did you reach out hand? Did you find
him the road,
Or did you just let him 60 by with his load1

Good Philosophy in Verse

Forget each kindness that you do
AS soon as you have done it;
Forget the praise that falls to you
The moment you have won it;
Forget the slander that you hear
Before you can repeat ii;
Before each slight, each spite, each sneer,
Wherever you may meet it.
Remember every kindness done
To you, wha,e' er its measure;
e Remember praise by others won,
And pass it on with pleasure;
Remember every promise made,
And keep it to the letter;
Remember those who lend you aid,
And be a grea,eful debtor.
Remember all the happiness
That comes your way in living;
Forget each worry and Distress;
Be hopeful and forgiving;
Remember good, remember truth,
Remember Heaven S above you;
And you will find, through age and youth,
True JOY, and hearts to love you.

We are all frail, but esteem none more
frail than thyself.
IF thou wouds, conquer thy weakness,
thou must never CRAFTY it.
There be memories on earth so sacred
and SO sweet that they live on in heaven.

being too mercitul than for being too severe.
Some men who pay their bills promptly

Some men would growl about the

Courtesy opens many doors and the
lack of courtesy leaves them open.
-Selfshness is the one thing that stands
between some people and happiness.
You shall never Judge mans bravery
by his conversation.
The victim of bent pin knows when
it is time to get up.
Fools rush in where angels fear to

come along and rescue them.
The shadow of the cross is like the
shadow of the sun, the life and light of the

Gone are the opportunities of yester-
day, but today's opportunities are always
within grasp.
If you don't perform duty before you
have got to do it, the chances are it will
