All Men Are Born Criminals.

But does this satisfy him with his lot? NOT Al
all. Man is so constituted that he cannot take
from life without giving. The one who has NO
social interest and who is not oriented toward
the useful side of life is bound to be dissatisfied
and discontented.
These individuals are the ones who add
themselves to the ranks of the nerotics the
divorced and the criminal Since their social
interest Is not developed, they cannot achieve
a proper balance in life"
DR. ALEXANDER pointed out that one can
not treat a criminal offender wisely and
justly unless one has a conception Of the factors
behind the offense. That is why our present
system of Furnishing the criminal is one that
will not correct him nor will it In any way
decrease the prison population
Men are sent to prison." Dr. Alexander
asserted. who may need only a change of social
environment. Or they may be suffering from
a disease of emotional life that could be cured
with the proper treatment. Many prisons have
psychiatrists to help their inmates, but they arc
necessarily handicapped by the prison environ
ment and restrictions: What is needed to helm
cure the criminal is not prison but hospital"

vantage of position, and she turns ahead of us
as we finally get clear. We thunder along with
the wind abeam. gaining foot by foot, but we are
too late. The Keeler crosses before us, and we
are third, with no regrets. For had the Flor
ence won, she would have automatically been
eliminated, having won the two preceding an
nual races, winning three of them hand-running
disqualifying them thereafter. And next year
we shall race again, we hope on the Florence
Northam and before the races we shall tour the
beach with our cash in hand seeking takers, for
we know what we know, and that Is, that II the
captain had really tried-well look out next
yearl
But our tale Is not yet ended. There are other
racers to be accounted for There's the decked
Sktpjacks and the open Skipjacks flying around
the course low, shallow-draft centerboarders
that can fly along with tn best sailing craft ever
built, and, as the wind has freshened, they are
seen beating up IN close formation, the masts
bending under the pressure they hold them
to the wind And We have only few minutes
TO wait, for they have gained time us as we
in the bugeyes gained on the schooners, and
soon the Minnie B. Of the frst-named class
shoots across the line, with Capt Scot Bozman
grtnning MOSTLY over her rail, her decks wet
with spray. as are her crew. Then the Myrtle
winner last year at Deal Island, arrives to take
second place, with Capt. Brinkley Taylor at her
helm
The open skipjacks also finished close and,
being smallest OF all the racers, had wet time
Of it, Capt Norwood Tull bringing the Lillian
T. IN in front. with Capt. Clifton Webster, in
Irradel, second, and Rolling Sea, Capt. Roland
Parkinson, third.
And so the races closed and the hungry
crowds gathered for fried soft crabs and coun-
try chicken dinners. Here again the eompeti-
ton was keen, and appetteS sharpened by the
salt air and excitement were hard to appease.
With nightfan came dancing and merrymaking
on the Point, with winning shippers as cocks
O. the walk. And we who had been privileged
to be one of them for day turned in early to
sleep and dream of another year and another
race day.

The tendency to give way to criminal instincts
Is acquired in the conflicts Of childhood
IF we hope to decrease crime" Or. Alexander
said, I'VE must first concern ourselves with the
training of the child It is obvious enough that
he must be given religious and moral training.
His education must be based not on tradition
but ON new scientific methods which will estab-
hsh a stable balance in his emotional life.
Every means must also be used to do away
with street gangs. The activities of the gang, I
need not say, give q boy a thrilling and adj
venturous outlet. Society can give him q
substitute for the gang by inducing him to
belong to the Boy Scout organization. There
he will get the same fun in a wholesome way.
Fairgrounds and club centers should be pro-
vided for children in the congested districts OF
the large cities.
Parents could do a great deal by encouraging
their children TO take part in sports, to follow
some hobby or study some form of art. They
must also develop their social interest
However, as long as present-day society is
permeated with the gospel of materialism-that
nothing in life matters outside of getting money
and spen ling it-one can hardly expect people
to bear their social responsibilities. Each one
is, out fec himself. He wants to get all he
can from life without giving anything in return.

INDIAN 135 LOCATED IN
STATE BY CENSUS TAKER

An Indian, Joe Robinson, who
claims to be 1876 years old and to
have been born two years before
George Washingtons completed his
second term as president of the Unit
ed States, has been placed on the
census rolls of the Duluth district.
The Indian may prove to be the old
est living person in the nation.
Robinson was found living on a
small island in Lac Croix through
which lake the information boundary
runs. He told the enumerator
through an interpreter that he was a
Sioux and had lived on the island for
sixty years. He is blind and almost
deaf. According to the enumeration,
he saw two scalps, apparently those
of white men, hanging in Robinson's
birch bark wigwam.

must tell me-"
She lowered her voice until it was
hardly more than whisper so that he
had to strain to catch her words. "He
offered me your life at a price"
Danvelt gasped. He could hardly be-
lieve his ears. Hope was suddenly re-
born in him. 1t throbbed through his
being, shortening his BREATH deepening,
If possible, the pallor of his CHASTITY
cheeks. what ii. what do you mean?"
His voice quavered. do you mean that
he offered to sell you my life? Why,
then, in that case :"
At once she perceived the mischief of
hope she had wrought but to add to
his mental torment. A sob convulsed
her, sob of pity for him.
"Ah, but the price, my dear!" she
cried, assuming that from her very
tone he must guess the truth.
But his wits, never penetrating, were
now as dull as lead. "Price?" he echoed
What price could be too high to pay
for life?" Excitement grew in him.
Does that covetouS captain want all our
wealth? Then yield 1t to him. Yield
all, so that may live"
She interrupted him, her hands now
clutching the arms of his chair. Can
you dream I should have hesitated had
it been but that? oh, don't you under
stand? The price he proposed to me
was to be paid by me--by me-"
He stared at her, and slowly under
standing pierced those heavy wits of
his. The light of hope persisted in his
eyes, like a candle that is blown out.
He covered his face with his emaciated
hands.

There was a silence, at the end of
which she spoke very softly and gently

than loathe me If had paid such q
price as that for your life"
Presently he asked a question. "And
you? What i. what did you answer
him?"
"As you would have me answer"
Slowly he nodded. you refused"
He continued to sit there staring
straight before him into vacancy, into
realms visible only to the eyes of his
spirit.
She came slowly to her feet, tumult
Of thought distracting her. Yet she
spoke quietly.
There is nothing, Philip, that would
not do to serve you; no sacrifice would
not now make for you, save one. And
