FINDS VIRTUE IN "BAD" BOYS ON
 ALLENDALE FARM
Faith Renewed In Goodness Of Average American
 Youth

LAKE VILLA, H.. Sept. 29-(By Associated Press.)-Thirty years eX- perience as director of the Allendale farm has convinced Edward L. Brad ley of the virtue of badness" in boys.
 Upon the 260 acres of land and water of the farm, badness" is ac- counted a natural part of the devel- opment of Captain Bradley's 100 boys Years ago MT. Bradley devoted him self to a new ideal in boy culture, and his faith, he says, in the inher ent goodness of American youth has yielded increasingly great returns.
 Foundation of the farm, according to MT. Bradley, might be taken as q protest against the institutionalism which oftimes attempts to reform boys into unnatural little angels. The other extreme was at first the policy at the farm and 1t has changed but slightly. The boys here are of the normal kind, MT. Bradley says, dog tails" They are encouraged to be themselves.
 There are few warnings or "don'ts" at Allendale. But there is an unwrit- ten law which no one violates. The boys may lie, steal, throw stones normally" and pay for 1t only as they might in the best of homes but whoever QareS smoke cigarette treads dangerous ground, and per haps numbers his days at Allendale.
 Nothing so limits the future of boy as the cigarette" Captain Brad ley believes. That is the only thing we will not tolerate"
 Some boys require special atten- tion," the director admitted. Some times we fail to handle them. Then we hand them over to the boys them selves and they always bring them around. In all our years we have had to expel only two boys. We say to the boys: Here he Is, if you can put up with him, if you want to give him chance, if you will take the re- sponsibility for his conduct, we'll keep him
 They take him, and soon the ob- jectionable qualities disappear. They take pride in being their brothers keeper"
 A list of the nationalities of the boys on the farm inscludes nearly all the names in the League of Ma tions. Among the hundreds who have gone out from the school, are many, the director says, who are drawing average salaries of $6,000 and S7,00O a year. And they are fine family men," he adds

ADJOURN SINE DIE
No One Injured In Pistol Battle At
 Exchange Club Luncheon


 UNION SPRINGS, Ala, Sept. a. Especial. 1.-The regular weekly luncheon of the Union Springs Ex- change club adjourned sine dle," for tunately with no one dying today, when the fraternal spirit of the luncheon was broken into by shoot ing affray. It seems that there had been bad blood between Jack Hor- ton, cashier of the Merchants and Farmers bank, and W. l.. Anderson, well-known merchant, which had reached an acute stage on the street that morning. Both men, however, went heavily armed to the luncheon, while a number of prominent club men kept on the alert to avoid fur ther trouble. Beyond sinister glances nothing occurred at the dinner, which was served by the ladies of the Bap- tist church in the assembly room of the Carnegie library.
 Just as R. D. L. Cope began speak ing, 1t is alleged, that Norton, a for mer star ball player and powerful athlete, twitted Anderson, who is much smaller man and of nervous temperament. Just what followed is not exacly known, but both, it Is claimed. began firing and engaged in a scuffle in which other members took part in an endeavor to part them.

In the meantime, Capt. Charles D. Norman, who received citation for distinguished bravery under fire, grabbed the raving Anderson and en- deavored to subdue him in order to avoid 6 casualty and frightening the ladies, although, as 1t later tran spired, all of them had fled at the beginning.
 In the meantime, other members were taking part in the free -for-all, while some were fleeing from pistol range. Just as the opponents emp tied their guns to the last shell, and Norman had conquered his man, Nor man and Anderson ceased firing and F.
