FARMERS, HELP.

Last year quite few farmers took
out town boys and, in most cases, the
boys served them we'll and ! received
back boys rebuilt and full of good,
clean thoughts and habits and ready
for school. In my experience as Juve-
nile Commissioner, have found that
removing boy or girl from improper
environment is the first aid to his or
her encouragement. None of us are
beyond the influence Of our environ
ment. No matter how firm of pur-
pose, strong willed and determined we
may be, we are constantly modified
by our surroundings. Take the best
born child, with the greatest inherited
advantages, and let it be reared in VIC
ious atmosphere and it will, of course,
become brutal.
Farmers, there are in this city boys
who need you, for whom you can do
much to determine the future current
of their lives. You can encourage and
stimulate their ambitions and you will
find out that they will become dead-in-
earnest. Ambition is contagious.
They will catch the spirit that domi-
mates you and which caused you to
struggle and climb upward to the sue
cess you have obtained. Correspen-
dence cheerfully answered.

Juvenile Commissioner,
