The box score of the gama played
at Richmond is interesting. Aragon
secured six hits in six times up,
Shannon 5, Kellar and Weaver 4
each, Hook 5, and Greenea 8.
Greenea partly made up for the
small number by slamming out a
home run.
Ruth secured his 50th home run
IN Saturdays game. 1t now seems
very unlikely that he will fail to bet
ter his record of 1920.

Portsmouth won from Tarboro Sat

place in the Virginia League. This

hind by four games and half.

a young man for two years. He
is exceptionally good.looking and
wealthy. Although he has gone with
many girls I was the only one that
he ever took to his home. We
went to a party and he paid at
tention to another girl. He did not
take me home, but his older brother
did. or course we parted. At
present he Is not going about with
any girl, but is drinking too much
and going with q bad crowd. His
mother Is abroad and does not know
of his present actions. His brother
came to me today and asked me IL
loved his brother. told him
that my love wasn't as strong as
II has been but still held a feeling
for him. .F L. NJ. J.
tsNEITHER do I condemn thee,

Those were Christ's words to a
woman whose life page was black.
Surely none of us wants to with

example of divine forgiveness. Give
the boy another chance. Your friend

BAD BOYS AND
BAD BUGS
BY w. A. McKeever-


Widely Known Lecturer and Author
and . National Authority on
Juvenile Problems.
TN city Of less than $4,000 find
seventy-eight men and boys
and two women in jail, with
"the largest number OF serious
crimes on record for the place."
In the same city find an excel
lent public school system, with
highly trained teachers and full
equipment.
In the same city I find very good
church buildings, wrrn able pulpit
ministers, but a very low attend
ance Of boys and youths.
In the same city find not q few
clubs Of men and women, all with
the best Of impulses and intentions
toward the young. One club Of
men has q regular committee on
boy work.
Now, what is the matter here,
where there are eighty jail occu-
pants, chiefly youths. and where
there are six homicides within a
single month?
1t. is the neglect Of the after
school, the failure to realize that
only the traditional and technical
education is confined to the school
proper that the emotional and vo-
litional educational is being conduct
ed more and more outside the school
room.
It Ia the failure Of tho so-called
best citizens to meet the RESPONSE
biiity Of the after-school discipline
of the young with definite plans
and methods Of guidance. Where
fore, q single county must pay out
more than 100000 on its criminals
this year.
Suppose we shift the situation and
say that Il n some kind Of in
sect destroying the growing grain
OF this county to the extent of
100000 or more. What happens7
why, trained experts are sent to
the scene, every acre Of ground is
gone over and mapped, the condi-
ton is finally known to the last
point and the effective remedy is
applied.
So much for creeping bugs de-
stroying the grain, but nothing for
bogmires besmirching the boys. It
Is not q square deal. There In
q State board Of bug hunters, but
not even q city board Of boy do
tenders. -.
While we are waiting for the
State to act with its expert boy
managers we must get busy with
the men In the local communities
and have them act as substitutes.
Secure a list Of names and ad-
dresses Of all boys ten to twenty
one years old. Find out where they
play, what shows they attend, what
clubs they belong to, what they are
reading.
Test the boys from fourteen to
twenty-one a. to their employment.
See that they are either at work
honorable or in school. Have a
school-attendance committee to Ia
Dor with every younger boy who
should be In the class room.
Have a big.brother committee 70
