You see, I was brought up with music in my home and I know What it means." This story was told to us by a band conductor who refused to have his identity revealed, This much we do know, boys and girls who are deeply engrossed in music study have not the time for dangerous nonsense, As Cervantes Put it, "Where there is music there is no mischief.' ' Even in prisons, experts have found that those wro play in the band and the orchestra offer ler fewer disciplinary problems than :hose without these privileges. 1\11llions and millions of d tllars are spent each year upon the manu- facture of gambling slot machines, which, like all gambling devices, prove dangerously attractive to youth. They are the kindergarten of vice. A fraction of their cost spent upon music and musical in- struments would reduce the poten- tial prison population of to -morrow very greatly, 'lite reason why such machines exist is time parents fail to do anything to couneeract them. 1 Our prisons are filled with young men and young women, wily of wham etre there because of the nt• gleot of their parents, JIM as though the parents had led the youth-: to the prison teethe as a kind of 7oltnau sacr;fir'e in ibis "age of don't ':ir;'.•- Let it, stop i" Do your share: - if °wick ham.; ifowick Township Will have Eleaion Contest For :.very Office -•, Alf Nominated Qualified one .or 111n 11 "gest crowds 111 v eons 10111e11 1.114 at :Sortie on Mao Illy af- tetnnnn far the' Howlck Toansttip N'otninal1o11s, and while 1, was net. richt from the ,;tart that there was going to b, an &action It wt' p'.teee. ful turd quirt, Tenet speaker 11: riven a perfectt bcaru,g wiell one interruption, and very tow geesilons Were asked, At two o'clock Clerk 'Isaac Gamble <eetered the nonlinatlone closed.
