YOUTH AND DELINQUENCY

young man said recently, that he once thought
was smart to be among those youngsters who liked TO g
and be tough But said he learned the hard way that
did not pay.
The young people to be getting little better
since action is being taken against much rowdineS
most peculiar that did not appear to be getting any
better until the police department began to crack down
young man said recently that ideness OF the
things which always made boys violence to get of
some of their energy
So we say again, there should be right activity
for the youngsters. And look out of the window
daily and see many walking around, know there
room for much improvement Parents should get together
and find way to help produce better ways and means
by which they may help keep the youths little buster
We told you a few weeks ago what group of moth
did to help their grow up and keep out of mis-
chief and other boys who first looked on and thought
it ridiculous caught a glimpse of what was beng
done. and stopped much Stiffness and begin to be bet
ter boys.
Today some of those young men who thought it was
smart to be "tufe. fine men, with well-mannered
young families of their own
They found out there no excuse for rowdiness
and they longer the need of making the younger
boys suffer from fear and they also saw that the
gang was not necessary and many of the boys were
sanng toward the conclusion that they too, had better
role of life to play than that of the old gang. The old
lurking urge to offend. and hurt others passed away
gradually and most of the gang became good citizens
&c. our conclusion is that the mothers and fathers
Just others helped other times The police and the
Mayors Committee is doing fine job, in trying to hnd
ways and means of helping the young people, and the
police department is trying to also protect the citizens
against ruthless violence The young people be real
