quarters she wished, but when unable
to do 50, refused to return the money
TO her She had on many occasions
been promised to get her money back

WHY CRIME SHOULD DE-
CREASE

Sunday morning three small boys,
,,oping in ages from 8 to 10 years,
vsre playing in an alley back of the
,o,rtment building at 700 East 10th
street. when one Of them was called
81 bis mother, who lives at 723 East
lah street, TO 60 on an errand for
her, The playmates left their play
and followed their partner, who had
been called away to perform task,
and stood close enough to the house
10 see that money was given to him
by his mother to buy something at
the neighboring store. When they
saw the money pass from the
mothers hand to the boys, they ran
near the grocery store, hiding behind
he corner near the alley, all unob-
served BY the one running on the err
rand. When he reached the corner
the two boys drew knives from their
pockets and grabbed the boy, search
ing wildly through his pockets until
they found the money which had been
given him. He threw up his hands
in fear, and permitted them to search
him.
After getting in touch with the
money, somewhere deposited in the
pants Of the playmate, the holdups
proceeded to beat it down the alley.
The boy screamed and the mother ran
out just in time to see the two other
fellows scampering down the alley.
She started chase and her cries
brought others to windows and doors,
and one man coming in the same di-
rection. surmising that they had been
doing something which was deserving
Of punishment, caught them and
brought them back to the home OF
the first playmate. They stoically re-
fused to tell their names or tell where
they lived
This is just one Of the reasons why
worldwide movement should be
launched to suppress crime. If it is
beginning to show results in the chill
dren what can we expect Of the flu
ture generation?
Friends. something should be done
and should be done right away. If
We are going to look for the boys and
girls Of today to fill the places Of
those who are now passing away
and il these things are permitted to
grow in these plastic minds - what
can we expect Of them in the future?
This is something to think about
