TRY READING AS A REMEDY!
Ills That Asa Society to Teach the
Read Are Seldom
GangLef and Dnlm
'pyrisht 1871. by the wheeler syndicate. Inc.

The other day youth Of nineteen
was convicted of lettering on the
streets. and. as a punishment, the
ma agistrate before whom he WAS
tried sentenced him 90 read so many
chapters Of Dickens and Scott every
day Tor six months
Probably the type of young man
who holds up street corners and leerr
at the fiappers who go by would Just
az soon rive thirty days in jail az
hard labor as six months in a library
at hard reading. but there can be no
doubt as 90 which discipline would
have the most beneflcent effect The

The library sentence will leave him
made over. il there is any good ma
terial in him.
Certainly the cure for about three
fourths OF the moral ills that all so-
ciety is to teach the young to read.
The idle youths who loaf on the
street because there is tho only place
they know in which to seek diversion /.
the girls who parade up and down in
front of the store windows. and who
find their greatest thrill in imagining
how they would look in the gorgeous
garments displayed in the shops; the
married women who are bored to
death because they have to stay at
home with their husbands and chill
dren. all are victims OF not having
been taught how to read.
For people who like 70 read never
know a dull moment. They never
lack for good company They never
need an occupation. They have only
70 take down a book. and they can
summon a geuii TO bring them
romance. sentiment. laughter or tears.
adventure or TO spread for them the
magic carpet that will take them 10
the uttermost parts of the earth. and
open for tht n every door. from the
hovel OF the peasant TO the palace Of
the king
Boys and girls who like to read are
seldom gangsters. and hoodlums. or
among those youngsters who stumble
into the downward path in bad COM
pany, for books make mighty wall
of defense between the young ana
temptation.
The wise magistrate who sentenced
the street loafer to read a certain
number of hours a day believed that
he could turn the boys punishment
into a never ending blessing TO him,
and that the lad could not fail to get
an inspiration towards a better life
from the new characters with which
the book would bring him in contact.
The idea is one that parents with
unruly children will do well to adopt
