Mister Snake Turkey and his COM

a naughty wink these two birds twist
their necks about and hide their

These birds must be long distant

Two Parts Of Brain

The upper part OF the boys brain,
which is the seat of intellect. may
be highly developed and he may be
a brilliant student. The cerebrum
may be functioning on double
time. At the very same minute, that
part of the brain situated II the
back part of the head may be de-
fective and a child may be helpless
in its spell, just as he IS helpless
when he is mentally defective, and
thereby be rendered unable to con
troll his emotions. Richard Loeb was
this type Of a boy.
There is another great and very
pronounced instinct which is usually
controlling factor in the life of a
boy-the gang instinct. The gang
instinct asserts itself at about the
age of ten years and its gang mem
bership is transient. until the per
manent gang at about fifteen years
is fixed. Not very many depredations
have been committed by boys but
what were wholly or in part trace
able to gangs" Not many boys do
things lone-handed. They have one
or more accomplices. 1t sat in the
Criminal Court room in Chicago for
ten days listening to the evidence in
the Loeb-Leopold case, consulting
with their parents, friends and as
sociates, and that Leopold was the
victim of gang instinct. at the hands
of an emotional dramatic leader, is
certain. In gang form, beginning at
about fifteen years Of age, they
stole machines and threw brickbats,
just as hundreds of boys have done,
