PEELED to leave school at sixteen under are to be

become industrial derelicts.
So long have vocational training in our
public schools surely this right way to handle it.
Thousands of girls forced to ruin because
Of jobess days, poverty stricken homes, physical
slavery to monotonous labor
There plenty of maids doomed to a life of
prostitution by nature Born in the lowest strata

be expected that naught miracle could save them
Nature does very little reforming. Those born to
business hard to save.
But everybody knows that many, many girls would
make good women If they given half chance
The day has when can expect young
women to grow in purity, wearing shabby clothes
and cotton stockings. 1t is condition. we must
face it, that above all things else century
girls want pretty garments. They will sell their very

A Common Weakness

The mayor Of Richmond. Va, held
up a $4,000 check the other day I'M
til, as he expressed it, he could de-
termine whether the boosters or re.
lief workers were right with regard
to conditions in Florida.
They are both right, but express
themselves badly.
What the boosters are trying to
say is that while a lot of poor peo-
pie have been hurt. nothing has o.
CURED to make it unsafe or uncom-
Portable for tourists this winter.
What the relief workers are trying
to say is that while Florida may be
well able to take care Of herself
from a business standpoint, lot OF
poor people need help.
The trouble is that neither crowd
can seem to say what it wants 70
without knocking the other, which
has become a proverbial weakness of
all discussion in this country.

The curfew ordinance passed by the city council
is in thorough keeping the spirit of the times and

1t was natural reaction of the councilmanic mind
to situation which startled them. They have dis

course, they passed a law.
Something more than ordinance is needed to
meet that situation. Making it a crime for boy or
girl under seventeen to stay up after 8 o'clock is
hardly the answer
What is to be said of homes that are so unat
tractve that they cannot hold these boys and girls?
What is to be said of parents who lose all inhu-
ence and control have so little interest In their
boys and girls that they permit them to wander into
temptations?
The cure for crime is character not iails The
curfew is ringng-but it may be upon the old-fash-
toned home, rather than for the youth of the city,
