from the home, is extraneous to the home and is
done by rank outsiders in most cases.
Children don't know what home life is. In
the morning they go to school; in the afternoon
a recreation expert trains them on the play
grounds; in the evening they spend part of the
time in the Y. M. C. A., or are to be found at
some other popular meeting place.
Is there any wonder that many of them walk
the streets when by rights they ougt to be at
home? If parents intend to turn over the en-
tire work of rearing their children to outsiders,
they cannot expect them to look at home except
ing as boarding house.
Many father and mother of Richmond who
is trying to elevate the standard of civilization
would be doing great thing if he or she did
some of the actual work of training a son or
daughter, instead of delegating it to others.
Sons and daughters cannot look upon home
as lovable place, and one about which cling the
tenderest sentiments and noblest affections, if
the fathers and mothers do not create this home
sentiment by participating actively in the train
ing of their children.
If father will enter into the games of youth
and not depend upon hired instructor to do it.
he will accomplish infinitely more for the boys
development than professional expert can. And
if mother, with wise counsel and ready sugges-
ton, will teach her daughter the many duties of
housekeeping, she will bestow boon for which
her daughter will be thankful.
The morals of nation are not shaped by the
pulpit or by the reformer who shouts from the
street corner. They are created in the home
where parents and children congregate where
their interests focus, and where they learn to
value the good and despise the evil. Our civiliza-
ton has more to fear from the lack of parental
training in the home than it has from any of
the popular brands of evil which are emphasized
so strongly today.
If fathers and mothers become expert and &C
complished instructors of the children, teaching
them fundamental virtues and preparing them to
face the temptations of life with proper training
the nation can face the future serenely. But if
they persist in Sinking this solemn duty, and
keep on handing over more and more of it to sub
stitutes and strangers, the strength of the home
will be wrecked and the nation suffer the con-
sequences.

Training Our Children

After looking at the number of agencies de.
vised for the training of the children, one some
times wonders what part the parents play in the
rearing of their children nowadays
Is the school system, the city, the recreation
organization, and number of other agencies to
rear the child, or is it the duty of the parents
Have the fathers and mothers delegated this
important function to other hands?
One can't help wondering along these lines
when he notices the multiplicity of the agencies
that are supposed to be essentially necessary for
the training of the modern child.
Children must have experts to supervise their
playing, it seems. Other experts must be mem
bers of the school organization to supervise
accessories in the educational system Societies
and clubs must teach mothers and help them
develop certain faculties of their children.
And yet, seldom is the home mentioned as
the real seat of training and fathers and mothers
recognized as the real teachers of their off
spring. The high duty of parenthood has been
banded about and shifted about so necessarily
that father and mother seem to be lost factors in
the process of rearing the child
But that's where we are making the big mis-
take. Fathers and mothers are using their time,
deploring conditions and seeking remedies, in
stead of applying themselves personally to the
rearing of their children.
Father expects a community service man to
teach his boy how to play. Mother expects an
other expert to teach her daughter how to sew
and can. Father turns his boy over to the
Y. M. c. A., expecting that institution to incul-
cate athletics and morals. Parents rely on the
Sunday school to supply the child with religious
teaching And SO, the training of the child, in
stead of being rooted in the home and proceeding

PATIENT cONSTANcY OF CON-
VICT'S SWEETHEART is ABOUT
TO BE REWARDED

Chicago, Today.-Marie Tamborne
has gone to the penitentiary at Joliet
on visiting day every week for four
years to cheer her sweetheart. When
ever the neighbors saw her pass with
a bunch of flowers or a box. filled with
homemade pies and good things to
eat they shook their heads sadly.
Its a pity, so it is" they mourned,
for a fine girl like Marie to throw
herself away on that convict. She
could have her pick Of dozen steady
lads. She'd better grab one while
she's young and pretty. She'll be a
faded old woman when Joe Bousk
gets out of prison. He'll stay behind
bars for ten years yet"
Joseph R. Bousk is serving a SEN
tence of fourteen years for murder.
Marie Tamborne was his sweetheart
when he killed Policeman Bruno Fred
ericks at a dance in Roti's hall near
the Chicago Commons in 1916. She
had gone to the dance with him. She
went to the police station with him
after the shooting. She sat outside
his cell every day until his trial.
Then she was in court every day.
When the clerk read the verdict, 1--WE,
the jury, find the defendant guilty,
a Young woman in the crowd tainted.
That was Marie.
Visits Her Sweetheart
Weekly for Four Years
Four long years Bousk has been in
Joliet For three years he has been
an honor prisoner And all the while
Marie has lowered over him like a
yicif e
have been the only bright spots in his
life Many a time the convict has
marveled at her constancy. He has
advised her to forget him. He has
ruined his own life. he tells her; why
should she allow him to ruin hers,
too? He urges her to marry some
good man ION the outside" Marie
answers always, Il love you, Joe"
That's her only answer 1t answers
everything.
Bousk's mother died recently
Through Marie's intercession State
Representative Conlon obtained from
Governor Small a parole for Bousk to
attend the funeral. After the obse-
quies Bousk reported to Conlon for
the trip back to Joliet.
Enjoy yourself for a few days
while you've got the chance" said the
genial Conlon. SHOW your girl a
good time"
Bousk spent FIVE days in Maries
company. They took auto rides They
swan at the beaches. They strolled
in the parks. They attended the NOV
les. They crowded some sort Of pleas
ure into every minute Then Bousk
reported again to Conlon.
Go back to Joliet by yourself" said
Conlon- "A man as honorable as you
are doesn't need a guard"
Bousk went back to prison alone.
Now vigorous effort is being made
10 get him out Legislator Conlon is
behind it, And back of Conlon is
Marie. Judge Mckinley, who presided
at Bousk's trial, has asked the board
of pardons to grant Bousk a full par
don. The board, 1t is reported, will
grant the convict his freedom before
the summer is over.
Then Wen be married" says Marie
Tamborne. 'I'll be waiting for him
at the prison doors and We'll go
straight to minister's. I've waited
four years. I'd wait fifty if necessary.

the Smithsonian Institution.

James Smithson was associated with
some of the mos: noted scientists of
his time. He passed a large part of
his life on the continent He was
buried in Genoa, where he died, but in
1904 his remains were removed TO
the United States and inferred in the
grounds of the Smithsonian Institution
Smithson was never in America, and
1t IS not known what induced him to
give his fortune to the United States,
except that sense of wrong in the
lllegitimacy of his birth alienated him
from his native land. In referring to
his bequest he wrote:

EARTHQUAKES NO
CAUSE FOR ALARM
Old Mother Earth Still Sound at Heart,
According to Prof. J. B.
Woodwork,

Cambridge, Mass, Jan. Sl.--The cpl
demic of earthquakes that shook the
world in several widely separated sec
J tons in recent weeks contains no cause
for general alarm; they are only the
growing pains of the newer geologic
formations and old Mother Earth her
self at heart is still sound and solid.
This, in effect, is the reassuring state
ment of Prof. j, b. Woodwork, who Is
I'm charge of the Harvard seismographic
station, as prepared for the Associated
Press.
Earthquakes have a way of occurring
in series, he said, and the world has
merely been suffering from another of
these periodic strings of commissions in
the SHOCKS reported from Albania, Chi.
ma and Peru, AS matter of fact there
are score of earthquakes strong
enough to be left or registered
somewhere in the world every "a hours,
but only a small proportion of them
are serious. Some are so small that
they would not be realized but for the
sensitiveness Of instruments. To in
dictate the fine perceptions of these in
struments, Prof. Woodwork said that
in times of severe storms at sea the
crash of the surf on the rocky coast of.
Newfoundland is registered at the seis.
mopraphic laboratory here.
"The quakes that shook China and
South America last month were not
the same, but separate shocks" said
Prof. Woodwork. "Geologists all
know that earthquakes are likely thus
to come in groups, For example, in
the year 1855 the city of Lisbon in
Portugal was destroyed by an earth
quake on Nov. |. while on the 18th
of the same month Boston was severe
ly shaken The difficulty is that there
is no way of telling exactly when or
where they will occur. If one serious
quake occurs, we may predict that
others are likely to follow, but that In I
formation is OF little practical value,
since we cannot tell how long the cpl. |
demic will last, what the interval be. |
tween the quakes viii be, OF in what |
part of the earth they viii occur.
"The eastern part of the United |
States is not often visited with Sc
we're earthquakes. The only severe
ones felt heresbouts since New bog
land was settled were in 1888, in TIT |
and in 1855, with a much lesser one in
1872.
