al farm, and on September 4th he

perts concerning books for which
authorization is desired can be ob-
tained without difficulty.
—Thoughtful citizens
will admit that there are
boys and girls who run the streete
at night. In many towns the curfew
remedy has proved very successful
in guarding against the growing and
dangerous evil of boys and even girls
loitering about the street until 10
o'clock at night, it not later. if an
example were made of a few small
boys it would be better observed.
Already 1000 cities and towns in
Canada and the United States have
passed a curfew ordinance when at it
stated time, In most cases nine p.m.,
though in some eight p.m, in winter,
the town bell rings and all boys and
girls mast immediately get to their
homes. The necessity for such or-
dinance as this has long impressed
itself upon the attention of the man-
agers and officers of industrial and
reformatory institutions. An officer
for a state industrial school for boys
says that official reports show 197,-
222 youths arrested in 100 of the
largest cities in the United States in
one year, Iie adds : "I feel confident
that a careful investigation of this
matter will convince anyone that at
least 75 per cent of those arrests
were directly traceable to unlimited
street roving after dark, Leaving
out of account the need of rest, early
sleep and healthy moral teaching in
the home, there towers over these
the almost certain destruction of pure
instincts and the inculcation of
vicious, soul-destroying thonghta
where children roam the streets at
will after dark."
