 PERSONS ARE NOT FINALLY FOUND

directing force in many instances.
 The adult cases as a rule have something sordid about them, where the juvenile ones almost always have a certain glamour of romance which no one feels more keenly than the police who are set to catch the youthful dreamers before their vis- ions have changed into nightmares and their pretty castles in the air have toppled into mud.
 Everything possible is done to aid the young ones," Lieutenant Ayres said today, and every pre- caution is taken to guard their repu- tations. Our work with them is en- tirely constructive. We try to avoid arrests or court procedure in order that the boy or girl will have noth- ling unfavorable on the record.
 Tt is true that frequently men who betray young girls escape pun .ishmcnt in this city. We leave it up to the parents, many of whom pre- fer to let the man escape punish ment he may very well deserve than bring the affair into court and pub licity.
 Moral CowardS
 We do all we can for the young ones but the adults who disappear they are mostly moral towards" Lieutenant Ayres. in speaking of the way the missing are traced with only motive to start with, cited the case of youth who disappeared twice in a two year period. The first time he was found in about week on the Canadian border by officers who had learned at his home that he was interested in stories of hunting and trapping. The next time he disappeared it was supposed he would be in the same vicinity but search was futile,
 Then the boys father told the |police that his son was interested in q particular magazine dealing with adventurous topics and a personal inserted add in that magazine brought a letter from the lad in South America where he had ship | ped on a lumber schooner. When he returned he refused to give up i his urge for adventure so through Ithe missing persons bureau arrang- ed to have him trained in the state nautical school. After graduation he became a mate and both the boy land his family were satisfied"
 Boys. Lieutenant Ayres believed quite often build solid structures ot success on a foundation composed of their early dreams, The run away boy is not often a bad boy, He said. "When you think it over YOU must realize that he must have some courage to step out into the world alone. The case of the run |away girl, though, is not so bright

Head of New York Police Branch Describes the Method of Searching Out Those Who Disappear From Sight.

New York, May IS LP)-A stage magician, before putting on the familiar disappearing lady, act, would do well to comb his audience for members of the missing persons bureau of the New York police de- partment.
 During the past year this bureau has had to deal with some 25,O00 real life disappearance far more baffling than those from the magi- clans trick cabinet. Since the bu- reau was opened in 1917 more than 120,000 such cases have been handled. And more than 99 per cent of the vanished persons have been found
 Strange Disappearance
 When some one drops out of sight" as the saying is, 1t would seem to the inexperienced searChcr that all the world must be dragged with q fine net. Some of the dis appearances are so unexpected, and apparently inexplicable that it seems 10 relatives and friends that the lost one must have stepped out of known life altogether and be in some strange sphere such as Alice found on the other side of the look ing glass.
 Disappearances CataIogued
 But the roads of romance and the streets of stealth are all plotted on the imaginary chart of the bureau of missing persons. Disappearance has been classified and catalogued and ipdexed to such 9 degree that given some definite starting point police can reach out with their eyes shut, so to speak. and slip recall ing finger deftly under the lost ones collar band.
 Must Find Motive
 And this starting point is always, if it can be found out, the motive for the disappearance. The few failures Comparatively few, though one per cent, of 12000 means that in nine years, 1,200 persons actually have dropped into obscurity so deep that even the trained eyes Of expert seal tllClS Coulu HOJ iltlu LIttlllJ al ' mostly attributed to the tact that no motive could be found.
 Even in finding motives the po- lice of this bureau have certain rules, proved and tempered by eX- perience, to guide them. For in stance; Boys, says Lieutenant John H. Ayres, who is in charge of the bureau, are most often lured from home by dreams of adventure. Girls, on the other hand, disappear most frequently for some reason of TO- mantle nature. love, footlights or Klieg light.
 Mostly Adults
 Adults (and it is interesting to learn from Lieutenant Ayres that of the 25,000 persons reported missing to the bureau last year only 6,000 were chiIdren) disappear usually either because of financial or do- mestic trouble. with the "othor wo- man" or the "other man" as the
