ADVENTUREOF
THE TWINS
By Olive Barton Roberts

"What do you wish to see me
abouts' asked the CutOut Lady,
when Nancy and Nick had seated
themselves carefully on the floor Of
her cardboard house SO as not to
knock it over.
Again their Green Shoes had been
a wonderful help, for, of course, they
had to make themselves littlc-wee
to get into her front door.
Nancy looked at Nick and Nick
looked at Nancy, for, now that they
had come to their journeys end, 1t
was going to be hard to tell the
poor Cut-Out Lady what they want
ed.
It's always hard to tell the cook
her biscuits are heavy and to please
bake better ones. It's hard to tell
the butcher man his meat is tough
and not to send any more like it.
SO now the Twins found it hard 20
tell the Cut-Out Lady that she
wasn't doing good mcnding and was

tons on crooked.
They both turned very red and
hardly knew what to say.
The Cut-Out Lady guessed tha

natural than that mothers of the city should ask Why not

COLORADO JUVENILE LAWS

The Colorado legislature has passed four new laws
which mark long steps toward the protection of childhood
All the bills champoned strongly by Judge Ben Lind
sey, and one at least directly inspired by him.
One of the laws is said to be the first of its kind ever
passed in this country provides that counties of the
state shall be responsible for the maintenance of INDECENT
mothers months before and six months after childbirth
Another provides that parents be held responsible IN
juvenile court for the delinquency of their children An
other gives the juvenile court jurisdiction over adults COM
hitting against children and the last raises the age
of delinquency from Is to IS years.
1t is not necessary to go into these laws in detail
brief examination shows that they look far into the causes
for delinquency and misery Children and provide tor
the control of those The providing for the care
cf INDECENT mothers perhaps the most bitterly fought
and not without Improperly administered would
be open to sweeping abuses; but properly interpreted it
should be corrective for many evils. re
It is generally conceded that when children go wrong
morally and physically it is not much the fault OF the
children of parents and the public who are responsible
for their welfare and training When laws enacted which
put the responsibility where belongs and provide penal
ties for evasion provision for child welfare is sane
