Parental neglect is responsible
for big majority of juvenile of
tenders, Jim declares, and he
sends parents home from his talks

lessness. Like the couple who
bought their 13 and IA year old
sons % caliber rifles, went away
and left them alone over night
+. and couldn't understand why
the boys took shots at equipment
of local industry which resulted
in $4,000 damage.
He tells of calls like that from
school where an 11-year-old came
to class with a loaded 1920 revol-
yer because "where we come
from, everybody totes guns"
Jim is looking forward to the
completion of Ottawa county'S new
detention home, being converted
from the residence acro2s from the
County Home, which will near
that children no longer need to be
kept in county Jail while investi
cation is going on.
He had a chance for a big jot
in Washington, but he turned il
down because 'his kids" in Otta
wa county mean more to him.
Irate parents, brought face-to
face with the bitter realization
they are at fault, sometimes try
to vent their anger on Jim. A
woman once chased him two
blocks with a teakettle of boiling
water.

The transformation is accom-
plished by cutting to size the re-
quired number of pieces, slightly
rounding the edges and corners,
and then gluing them on. Be sure
to weight the backs, or use long
clamps, to get good bond.
The Leatherwood may be given
a light sheen by the application of
liquid wax. The use of die-cut
numerals or decalcomanias to dis
tinguish the various volumes is
suggested. Instead, letters or nu-
merals could be enameled directly
on the hardboard.

Thrill folks like you and me?
Has the universe a purpose?
If so, why not declare.
Ihese radiant blooms are symbols

The universe has a purpose!

Or kneels at Jesus feet.
