PARENT APATHY
DRAWS CENSURE
IN DELINQUENCY
Her Children Are Not Bad,
Mrs. PiCkard, Head of
Home, Declares.
BY CARL THORBAHN

Most of the children who come
to the Marion County Detention
Home are not bad but rather are
paying the debt of too little atten-
tion from their parents, says Mrs
Anna E. Pickard, superintendent
of the home.
Fewer children would ever reach
the home If their parents would
have less parties and maintain a
better home life" she said.
We try to treat children, when we
get them, as If tn. are our own
One Of the chief rroDlems is keep
ing them busy. 10 do this we have
a carpenter shop and school,
We have no funds for this work
and any money we get is donated
or received from the simple toys
which are made in the shop and
which are sold to visitors"
Shop instruction a Feature
The home tries to develop the
talents of each child and outstand-
ing work has been done by some.
Recently some one sent a box of
molding clay and some of the
models turned out by the children
are judged as exceptional by Mrs.
Pickard.
F. j. LOOMS, guard and instruc-
tor, has charge of the carpenter
shop. Here cigar boxes and pack
ing cases are turned into tie hold
ers, various garden toys and what
nots. Mr.. LOOMS has been able to
purchase power-driven jig saws
and other tools from the money
realized by the sale of these objects.
One of Mrs. Pickard's prizes, with
which she demonstrates that the
children which come under her
care have intelligence, is. a poem.
This poem was written and dedi-
Gated to her by 16-year girl
who ran away from home. The
girl has since been placed in a
private home. Here is the poem:
Illumination
On dreary drizzling day
AS people battled on their way
/, in the dim shadows slowly walked
Unmindful of the wind,
Deep in thought.
Lonesome was I, and respondent
Weary and tired Of living
When slowly the clouded sky parted
Sending forth long rays of light
To illuminate ones soul in beauty
afreSh,
With hope and faith.
No longer was the day cold
For that one ray had made it warm;
AS my steps from listless to
Sprightly grew,
Glad was l, in my new found joy,
The inspiration of divine peace.
Religious Training Given
Bible study and Sunday school
play large part in the school work
of the children, Mrs. Pickard said.
On Tuesdays and Thursdays they
participate in games and singing.
Sometimes children run away
from home to come back to us. We
try to keep an interest in them and
they are free to return to us with
their problems" Mrs. Pickard said,
OF the 1872 who have passed
through the home only 189 children
returned the second time, Mrs. Pick
ard said.

EFFECTIVE PUNISHMENT

Ne believe that the Justice of Peace of MilWaukie, oregon, whose court resembles h jurisdiction that Of the United States Commls- sioners Court h Alaska, has hit upon an effective way of curbIng mlsdemeanors.
 4 recent issue Of the Milwaukie Review carries story 10 the effect that Sam Brusco ot Portland, who was arrested on the super-niway November 5, charged with operating an automobile while under the inIIu- ence of intoxicating liquor, is sery- ing out a Jail sentence on the in stallment plan.
 Brusco was assessed a fine Of Sl5O and sentenced to serve oU days in the county jail when he pleaded guilty before Justice Richardson on November g. 6O days of the jail sen tence to be suspended upon pay ment of the line. 4 lew days later he was granted one day parole to allow him a chance to raise money to pay the fine, which he did. Up on his return to the county Justice Richardson granted him the priyil- ege of serving the twenty days of his sentence over the week ends, presenting himself at the county jail to be incarcerated Saturday and Sunday until his time has been served out.
 This privilege, states the Review, has occasionally been granted to others wehn serving the full sen- tence on consecutive days would jeopardize the mans job, and has been found to work out very well.
 Any man who must work through the week and then spend his holi days behind the bars is not likely to be caught twice in the same situa tion.

Relics of Prehistoric ESkimOS

Bone for Armor

The party found weapons, tools and household articles which had been preserved for centuries in the perpetually frozen Alaskan soil and which furnish valuable new know ledge of two ancient Eskimo eul- lures of Alaska and fill in many gaps in the history of the ancestors of the modern Eskimo.
 The armor, which was uncovered in mounds of ancient rubbish accu- mulated over long periods from yiI- lages long since abandoned, was made of slats of bone, the Geograph- ic says. and is similar to the slat armor used by some Asiatic tribes.
 Also discovered were harpoon and arrow heads, fish lines Of whale bone, fragments Of clothing, cook ing utensils, combs, awIs, needles, ceremonial masks and even toys.

 Find Point of Origin
 The mounds were of good size. the expedition reported. one of them being eight feet in depth. The dig giug process was extremely slow. it was said. because the frozen ground thawed only a few inches each day.
 The archeoiogists are believed bv the Geographic 10 have uncovered the first site of the old Eskimo Thule Culture ever to be found in Alaska. Thule culture was a stage of development just prior to the civ iiization reached when white men first found Eskimos. II is charact- erized pretty definitely by certain types Of tools. weapons and art ob- jeets. Geographic officials ezplaine I.
 Thule culture spread over the en- tire arctic as far east as Greenland. and while it has been known for some time to have existed in those regions, the new finds. the Geo graphic thinks, confirms the import ant archaeological fact that it spread eastward from Alaska
 Strangely enough. the Society points out many of the proofs of this ancient culture were found in a mound previously uncovered by Dr. Diamond Jenuess of the Museum of Canada, first explorer To make systematic excavations in Alaska.
 More Recent Mounds
 In the mound Mir Jenness had abandoned the expedition dug up ev- idenee that Thule Culture was de rived from a still earlier stage of life known as Birnirk Culture. This Birnirk age according to the Geo graphic report. once flourfshed in the region surrounding Point Bar- row.
 In successive layers downward the expedition $ excayators found ar row heads gradually changing from the Thule style to that of the Birn- irk type Two miles from this mound. the archeologists found an older one in which remains were en- tirely of the Birnirk type. It was the first discovery of the Bornirk Culture outside the Point Barrow region, the National Geographic states.
