JUVENILE COURT
NEXT THURSDAY
Mayor Glover Will Hear Cases
Against Lads Charged
With Theft.

Hardened criminals, men who have
given many years to law-breaking,
excite in a just man more contempt
than pity. But when boy who is yet
in his teens forsakes the path of rec
titude and appropriates to his own
use the property of others, honest
men cannot refrain from pitying the
lad in his weakness and waywardness.
On Thursday afternoon of this
week, Mayor A. Y. Glover will have
brought before him six boys charged
with theft. Four of the boys are
called "old offenders" They have
been arrested before for violations of
the law. Two of the youths will APP
pear in court for the first time. The
finger of suspicion, pointing to
these boys, they were questioned as TO
their knowledge Of the disappearance
Of merchandise from stores, OF micro
scopes from the S. d. Lee High School,
of certain articles Of value from the
Choctaw Club. etc. One of the lads,
becoming frightened as the shadow
of prison walls fell across his path
way. made a confession and his ac-
completes were arrested and each
placed under $3.50 bonds to guarantee
their appearance in court.
The boys are from good families,
Their ages range from twelve to six
teen years. They are not hardened
criminals. But they have been in
by evil compsnionship to do
wrong. Let US hope they may see the
folly Of their course and turn back in
to the straight and narrow path Of
and honesty.
Most Of the stolen articles have
been recovered. Chief Of Police Cook
recovered a lot Of the loot buried un-
der a room occupied By one Of the
boys. As burglars their work was
very crude. The value Of the recover
ed articles viii approximate g thOus-
