CHILDREN AND CRIME

What Judge Morris D. Sake stated in relation to children and crime has been on the minds of thoughtful ob servers for long time.
 "The child problem is a very seri- ous one and over half of the trouble in the world is caused by children. If children are given proper train- Ing and there is more cooperation between the home and the school crime will be reduced greatly" Boys and girls who are allowed to remain out late at night are quite certain to fall into evil ways.
 The well-trained child may, after all, turn out to be a black sheen; but If he does, he will be the exception.
 The well-trained child usually turns into a well-trained man or woman, a credit to the city, state and nation.
 Crime is due mostly to a bad en- Flronmcnt and lack of that proper training which the judge spoke | about.
