was no means of exit save through
the window
Miss Wyrenbek leaped through the
window and Darlene was thrown out
the window by her father who then
returned to his wife, wrapped her in a
blanket and put her through the win
dow. The noise attracted the atten-
ton of Mr.. Wyrenbek, he rushed
to the scene and was burned in at
tempting to help in the rescue.
The three Millar boys, who were
retiring in another room, leap
ed through window and escaped
unburned.
Mrs. Millar was twenty-one years
of age and is survived by her parents,
her husband, three sons and little
Darlene, and by the two brothers,
Steven and Frank Miss Wyrenbek
was twenty-seven years Of age. The
tragedy was one of the most terrible
in the history of the County and the
sympathy of all who have learned of
it is extended to the bereaved fan1i-
lies of these two young women.
Both services were attended by a
large number of friends, some of them
coming for a considerable distance to
pay the last tribute of respect and
affection to these two unfortunate
young women. Among those from q
distance was their cousin Frank Wy
renbek of Fondulac, Wisconsin. Mrs
A. A. Mccarthy of Clements was in
the party which went to Owatonna,
she relieving the grief stricken fam
lily of many of the details connected
with the service. Mr.. and Mrs. Max
Wyrenbek, the parents are spending
several days with relatives at Owa-
tonna, giving Mrs. Wyrenbek an OPP
portunity to recuperate from a col
lapse suffered during the service.

Probation Systems

There can be no question but that the last few
years have seen remarkable development of the
probation system, particularly it applies to juvc-
nile dclnquents. In fact, we may say that by the
introduction Of the newer and m5rc understanding
methods and the scientific analysis of results OBJ
tanned, it has been possible t. make the probation
system very positive and valuable force for god.
For instance, in New York City, in spite of the
great increases in youthful bandits and other GRIM
lnAls, there has been recent increase in dcn-
quency in children under lG years Of age according
to the recent annual report Of President Justice
Franklin Chase lloyt Of the children's court
The ranks Of bandita and youthful criminals arc
not recruited from juvenile delinquents at least not
from those who have been brought bef ire the chill
drcns courts, according to the report Of conditions
in New York. which says that only Comparatively
small number of those who were once in the chill
drcn's court ever get into trouble again."
Justice HOyt contends that careful system of
probation has been highly successful as method OF
dealing with delinquent children. He says that the
results Of probation arc effective and permanent
and that it is a wise and powerful instrument in
the correction and reclamation of handicapped chill
drcn."
These newer probation systems are successful be.
cause they cmbody all the scientific aids TO com.
pete success Hand in hand with the probation
work go the diagnosis and examinations made BY
clinics in problem cases and cases Of mental de-
ficcncy. Experts in mental hygiene are in con-
slant consultation in effort to make the children
under probation not reformed little criminals but
entirely new persons, possessing an entirely new
and finer personality and sense Of moral values r

= Labor conditions in Porto Rico appear to be very
bad, and that their badness is beginning to sion
over into the continental United States is indicated
by evidence in possession Of the labor department
and the American and Pan Amcrican Fcderations OF
Labor.
Porto Rican labor is super-abundant and conse.
4uently cheap. 1t is also exempt from American
immigration restrictions.

population consists of a very few rich and a great
many poor. The Porto Rican laborer Genes rattle,

600 unemployed Even those who can find work
generally find it for not more than half the wear
Wages average around so cents "a day. Living con-
aitlons, OF course, are miserable
Under such circumstances what is starvation nav
