JUVENILE CRIME
ON The INCREASE

London, July THE serious in
crease in Juvenile crime is being
brought to the notice of the home
secretary by various societies inter
ested in child welfare. The estab-
lishment of juvenile courts to deal
with young offenders had good re-
suits before the war, but opportuni-
ties for running wild since fathers
and big brothers have enlisted have
been seized by the rising generation.
It is stated that three remand homes
are full of culprits sent from various
London courts, including the Tower
Bridge gang of van robbers whose
ages scarcely reached the double fig
ures, and the leader of the Clutch
ing Hand" band, who is barely twelve
years old. These two bands of young

part as follows:

Gee! It's so long since I've writ
ten a letter 1 think I've almost for
gotten how to start one. 1t is now
almost a month since I've written.
Well. we finally crossed the big pond
and when we started we didn't have
any Intentions of leaving the states.
thought at the time that we were
going into barracks in Massachusetts
or Canada.
AFTER leaving New Haven we made
some trip. We saw some beautiful
Bcenery, especially through Vermont
ana Canada. or course there was not
much to be seen on the water and
TOR about ten days all we did see was
water and I guess some of the boys
will never forget it. For may part. 1
Bwore I'd never care to look at it
again. About everyone on the boat
was seasick for about four days. but
after that we all began to sit up and
take notice and then we began to en-
Joy the trip.
eff the censor was not so strict
could make this story more interesting
by telling where we have been and
what we have seen. and at the same
time 1t would be more Interesting for
mo In writing 1t. But we must leave
al that until we come home and then

over here last year when l was ou'

asked If the acquisition Of the pump

Church Street Jitney Driver Runs
Afou1 OF Wagon Without Lights.

Again Michael Sullivan's Church
Street Special" is cutting up capers.
While chugging down Stanley street
last evening in quest of a patron the
driver, because Of the moisture on his
windshield, and the fact that a car
riage ahead did not display "a light.
narrowly missed colliding with said
horse drawn vehicle. Dexteriously,
the chauffeur turned to the right and
climbed onto the sidewalk in front Of
No. 562 Stanley street.
Then issued an alteration between
the jitneur and the horseman. The
argument sounded something like
this, only moro so:
why didn't you have your lantern
lighted?"
II did,
"You didn't"
did too
Didn't either" etc. ETC.. etc, etc.
Sullivan's auto was slightly dam
