CRIMINAL TENDENCIES.

After q careful study Of 1000 young
criminals and their ancestry DR.. Edith
r. spaulding, resident physician Of
the Reformatory for women at South
birmingham, Mass, and DIR. William
Healy, director Of the Juvenile Psy-
copathic Institute. Chicago, have been
able to find "only Is cases which IN
the least suggest Inheritance Of Grim
inalistic traits"
"In no case of the thousand they
say. "have we been able to discover
evidence Of a~nti-social tendencies, In
succeeding generations without also
finding underlying trouble of q physi-
cal or mental nature, or such striking
enyironmental faults or mal-adjust-
ments as develop delinquency in the
absence Of defective Inheritance"
They say there is much evidence Of
the indirect inheritance of criminals
tic tendencies; that is to say. q child
born Of criminal parents is almost e
tain to be brought up in an environ.
ment that would tend to make him 4
criminal even If he had been born Of
the most moral parents.
It is impossible to say where heredr
ity leaves OF and environment begins.
with inherited imbecility, NJ envir--
onment could make a good citizen. On
the other hand, II a normal individual
where brought up In dives of vice
from infancy, with no moral enlighten
ment, he, too, would be q poor type q
citizen"
They regard habitual drunkenness
as an expression OF nervous weakness
which may be either inherited or &C
uuired. Commenting on n OF the
cases that seemed suggestive Of Grim
inalistic inheritance, they say:
1.-THE boy, however, suddenly walked
nh in the midst Of his atrocious envir
onment. broke up his gang, REFORMED
the worst member Of it. and thereby
upset our evidence that he had inner
tied any criminalistic tendencies. Thi,

Cooperation
At a time when our papers are
filled with wars and rumors of wars,
when our own beloved country is
being drawn into conflict, t,-when our
great system of Government has
found no means to settle the ques-
tion of honor except by the sword,
when Christ is being crucified again
by his followers the world over, it
is difficult to wean our bleeding
hearts from these subjects to take
up our every day affairs.
May we not believe that the
terrible conflict in the old world,
and the war clouds over our own
firesides, have been permitted by an
sll-wise Providence because the
world has not been willing to accept
Christ's teachings that all war is
wrong, and that nations as well as
individuals should settle their diff
ferences other ways than by taking
of human life.
Out of this catychlism, when
believe there will be built up sys-
tenn of Government that will make
war impossible,-that Christ's spirit
will so live in the hearts of all men
that His Kingdom cannot be over
thrown.
For my more humble subject, 1
propose to read to this Club extracts
from an address delivered at the
Iowa Farmers Grain Dealers Con-
vention in Feb. last, by a former
President of the Chicago Board of
Trade.
That his interest in the farmer is
sincere and that this article has
especially commended itself to me,
is because this man spent two or
more years of his life on a farm,
doing farm chores, driving colts,
milking cows, going barefoot, a-fish-
ing, and swimming, and innumerable
other stunts that went to make a
city boys life long dream. bearing
in mind the old motto, "All work
and no play makes Jack dull boy"
One of these stunts was to carve his
name on the beeches, and if this
evidence is doubted, these silent re-
minders scattered about on this farm
will bear ample tribute to his two
years of boyhood spent at Colora.
