Prevention of Better Than Cure.
(Toronto Star.)
All this discussion of the Rose and
other cases tend to emphasize one great
fact—the paramount importanoe of pre-
venting the creation of criminals.
Of all the advances made along the
lines of higher civilization during the
past oentnry, the greatest advanoe of all
is that which has been recorded in the
efforts put forth to reclaim the erring
err their feet were turned permanently
towards the downward path. It is not
going too far to say that J. J. Kelso, in
what he has done to secure the surronnd-
Inge of proper home influence§ for child-
ren whose parents were unfit for parent-
hood, has performed a more valuable
eervioe in perverting crime than half
the police foroe in Ontario have perfor-
med in the suppression of crime, There
are hundreds, possibly thousands, of
young men and young women, living
respeotable, useful lives to -day, who,
bat for Mr. Kelso's work, would have
gone to destruction. Mr. Kelso long
linos recognised the fact that the very
worst method of treatment in the base
of a boy who has taken one wrong step
is to herd him with others of the same
olaea—that the way to reform is to
separate those in need of reformation,
and to place each individual in an en-
virornent oalonlated to develop the good
rather than the bad that is in him; and,
happily for the Provinoe, Mr. Miro has
been strong enortgh to impress his views
en those with power to give street to hid
