Delinquent Child of Today
Criminal of Tomorrow,
Psychologists Believe
THE CALL OF THE CHILD
By George d. Hicks.
Judge of the Juvenile Court TOR
Washington County

Tho new awakening to the MODERN
Youth is slowly but inevitably undergo
inc vivid change. Psychologists pSy-
obia+r;sts and sociologists have recentiy
discovered that the delinquent chliu VI
+odoy will he the criminal of tomorrow.
IT is obvious that the petty ana more
oraver crimes committed by the mlsnts
of society of today, may De traceu oaoA
+bronoh the records of the juvenile
Courts TO child delinquency-to 0e-
linouency that generally starts with tru-
ancv and runs, like scarlet tnreau'
through the category of mlsdemeanors
70 the more hideous crimes that blight
and smirch the good name OF a state
and laws a fabulous burden OF taxatlon
on the shoulders of an Indifferent ana
apathetic citizenry.
The cost of crime to the taxpayer is
indirect and invisible and he pays the
bill not realizing what portion OF MS
dollar is allocated for the payment OF
the crime debt. Few realize that our
annual crime bill in America totals the
colossal sum of approximately $l3,OOO,-
100000 Let any man in public life adj
vocate the appropriation of sum like
this for the direction, rehabilitating and
welfare of the neglected child and he
digs his political grave ere he is aware.
Yet we cannot escape the warning that
''The youth, who daily farther from the
east must travel still in Natures priest"
The neglected and delinquent child is
one who has been born, not of his own
choice, into an environment of such
degrading and immoral characteristic
the development of criminal tendencies is
almost certain if the child is allowed to
remain and grow up in such surround
ings. The child is taught profanity,
falsehood, vice, petty larceny especially
the larceny of food, clothing and fuel
and is whipped if he fails to produce
Too often the parents of the child are
reared in similar atmosphere and taught
the same vices. Like begets like, crime
begetS crime.

Sy the Associated Press.
Postal inspectors launched Ma
ton wide drive today against obscene
correspondence clubs" whose mem
bers were said to be exchanging a
flood of lascivious photographs and
letters through the mail daily.
Terming the racket lone of the
most vicious schemes ever exposed by
the inspectors" officials urged the
public to assist in stamping out such
clubs.
System Of Operation.
Under the guise of bringing to-
gether collectors" of erotic pictures,
the clubs advertise collectors PAM
phlets for sale in inexpensive maga-
zines, the department said. The
pamphlets usually cost only a few
cents, and when operators mail them
they enclose an application for club
membership. Annual dues are set
usually at 81.
Once a member, the prospective
correspondent fills out an informa-
ton blank, giving his sex, physical
characteristics, mailing address. and
describing any particular hobbies of
an erotic nature. The club then acts
as a clearing house" by putting
members of similar interests in COM
munication with each other.
Simetimes members use aliases or
code numbers, inspectors said, but in
other cases they correspond directly
with each other under their real
names. In almost every instance in
spectors have found the letters to be
lewd and to contain lascivious photo
graphs or drawings.
One Club Near Here.
Three clubs are under investigation
now in different parts of the coun-
try. including one, with over a thou
sand members, close to the National
Capital. One club has a membership
roster of 3,157.
The department already has asked
o congressional committee to appro-
pirate funds next year to combat the
clubs.

ALBANY, N. Y. December 10.-A
State N. r. A. bill fashioned on the
lines of similar legislation in Califor-

action in 1887 by the Executive Com
mittee of the New York State Fedora
ton Of Labor at its closing session
yesterday.
Hailed as the ''most important and
outstanding commitment of the COM

George Meany, the recommendation
was unprecedented.
Meany said the bill would include
the principal hour and wage features
of the N. r. A. measure, as well as
certain provisions for fair trade prac-
tice agreements It would be designed
to overcome objections raised by the
United States Supreme Court when it
declared the N. r. A, unconstitutional
last year, Meany said.
The committee also voted today to
support the anti-child labor amend

to analyze his action there was no particular rea-

A CANTER in the park is supposed to be very
Hhealthful Maybe it is for the horse.
Riding is something like getting over by
truck-not bad if you can get used to it.
It makes some people glad. 1t makes others sore
but notwithstanding.
If bridle- path calisthenics to become
universally popular, something must be done about
the seating arrangement.
Trouble with the steed is that his roomy ex-
terror is upholstered with reinforced bone right in
the place where the passenger takes his settingup
exercises.
The horse has period of vibration that starts
when he does and ends on the same basis
Particularly is this true during the trottng
season. Horse and rider go up together, but the
horse comes down first.
That's where the rub comes in.
A great deal can be blamed onto the English
saddle. This little device leaves practically nothing
between rider and mount but a bond of under
standing
The average person is supposed to have tender
SPOT in his heart for the noble animal. But with
most of us, the spot is a little below average.
If we must ride horse let him divide his feed
with U.S. Let him stuff half the hay under his back
bone and we'll stuff the rest under own.

Does Re-|ncarnation hold kf
toSeuet of Bonnie Marsh's Talent .
For Drawing Wild Jungle Beasts?

is BONNIE MARSH the reincarnation of some
jungle goddess queen? Did she live perhaps
hundreds of years ago when Christians were fed
to the lions-or in a kingdom where beasts roamed
the forests?
Bonnie doesn't know won't even discuss the
theory which has followed in the wake of her
strange talent for drawing and painting wild ami
mails and great jungle beasts with life-likeness
that has won her fame throughout the Pacific
Northwest.
And she is famous-and talented
The only answer the young artist will give is
that she has never been in jungle forest in
her life, and that she only knows that the great
lions and panthcrs of the Northwest ZOOS make
her feel that somehow they have always been
part of her life and she watches them for hours
fascinated!
Bonnie goes to motion picture shows where ami
mails are given life-likeness the silver screen
and she the show over and and over
as long it is in town. But she never knows what
the plot of the picture was-she has seen only the
ferocious beasts.
Imperial Valley press., 1936-01-19

THEN she goes home and paints and draws them
with such startling genuineness that they almost
leap from the page at the observer. Not subtle
line is lost not detail overlooked-there is even
that feel of cruel grace in the great cats and
leopards.
They are friends to her! She knows-and cap
lures canvas-their RACES and their gentle
moods. When she can't be near them a battling
mystifying loneliness seems to engulf her waking
hours. They prowl through her dreams
Bonnie is % years old and perfectly healthy
happy, normal young woman, full of fun with
natural reactions to life it is lived every day in
Seattle-except that animals are a part of her
existence Tigers to her are individuals. Their
moods and thoughts are important, and when one
becomes an obsession she paints it in order to for
get for a while
Many who have seen her work and know this
uncanny understanding are attributing it to a re-
incarnation of some former jungle goddess or en-
pre queen.
But Bonnie doesn't know.

% RAYTON COLBY was browsing among the
y bookstalls along the Seine the cathedral of
Notre Dame when the girl with the sad eyes passed
him. He rested the heavy, dusty volume of Votare
which he had dug out of its hiding place in one of
the quaint Paris bookstalls on the stone wall, and
gazed after her. She neatly dressed in the in
expensive black of the French shopgir but her fea
lures were those of an arstocrat and her eyes held
the wisdom of Buddha mingled with deep tragedy,
