According TO the warden of the
Kentucky reformatory. half a million
is a low estimate of the number OF
bows and girls who start each yea
on a career of crime in the United
States. Such conditions are nothing
short of appalling, and the thought
of a vast army of young people be-
coming criminals is enough To dls-
tress the mind of every respectable
man and woman in the land
And the law. or force or threats
cannot cure this condition. Educa-
ton and parental care alone can re-
duce the number. The hayward boy
or girl must be led in the right paths,
and not driven. Around them mus
be wrapped the arms of fatherly and
motherly affection. They demand q
display of love, and their lessons
must be so plain that they cannot
mistake them. More moral examples
set before them and fewer threats OF
what will happen to them is the best
remedy, according TO the Kentucky
warden. The law is not going TO
make people virtuous, and IL is not
going to keep boys and girls from
.straying into darkened paths, he
declares.
These reflections should commend
themselves to all Ely fathers and
mothers. and to the teachers of
children in all of our town and rural
schools. We must protect our w
community by safeguarding our W
boys and girls, and doing all We can
to show them. without being threat
ening. that the way of the tr%ansgres
sor is always a rough road to travel

Bangkok has been called the
Venice OF the East. The Menam
River Is the great trading street OF
tho city. Floating houses do a
cash and carry business through
windows opening toward the chan
mel where pass the shoppers in al
most every conceivable sort OF craft.
These range from great steamships
TO the priests boats propelled by
novitiates. and from the immense
rice boats to the canoes which carry
the postmen. Then there are the
river-goins cafeterias, serving the
residents OF floating houses. These.

stoves.
Perhaps the most coiorful river
scene is the water market. where
each tiny boat with its cargo OF food
bears little lamp. The market

morning. And during that period
