ABOUT YOUR BOY

What a Kenosha boy does with the book
knowledge he gets in school depends chiefly
upon the sort of life-knowledge he gets outside
of school.
Minds are instructed in the class room.
But motives and character are developed
largely in the boys spare time.
Out of every 100 boys in Kenosha four are
super privileged in recreations and advantages,
30 have normal privileges and 66 are under
privileged.
That's the estimate Of the Boys Club Fed
GRAFTON. a national organization of $50 clubs
with 102, 900 boy members.
The under-privileged boy has the street, the
alley and the vacant lot as his playground. The
pool room is his clubhouse The gang" is
the organization constantly inviting him.
1t is from these under privileged boys, from
this rotten environment created by city life,
that the youthful gunner and petty criminal
usually are recruited.
Obviously, remove this mountaineering at
s1osphere - put the boy in a clean, construc-
tive environment and potential criminal
often can be made into an Industrious, law
abiding citizen.
This thought occurred to Chicago business
men, They went into one of the worst wards of
Chicago and started Boys Club. This club
has no age limit It's slogan is, IF boy is
old enough to be out on the streets, he is old
enough to be in our club"
The club differed by shrewd psychologists,
diyerts it's boy-members' attention to healthy
recreation.
In one year of operation juvenile delinquency
has decreased 70 per cent in that ward = due
to the boys club.
We'd have fewer youthful criminals in Ke-
nosha if similar clubs had been formed in our
tough" districts few years ago. You bust
ness men!-how about starting such clubs
now?
