The boy who has had to "do chores" rarely goes to the bad, ac- cording to Senator L. Y. Sherman. The senator spoke out of his experi- ence as head of the Illinois State Char- ities for several years.

An interesting recital Illustrating the work done In the Saturday classes was given by the Jennette Loudon School of Music recently In the Little theater in the Fine Arts building, Chicago. Miss Loudon, the director of the- school, gave a few remarks explana- tory of the aims and purposes of the class work and the different features of the program which was to follow. The first part of the program was devoted to "The Toyshop," an operetta by Mary Packer, given under the di- rection of Miss Ethel Congdon, who has charge of the voice work In the school. Then followed a series of original compositions by members of Miss Francis' primary and Intermedi- ate classes and Miss Loudon's junior class. The performance of two movements of Romberg's KIndersymphonie by the Kindersymphonle orchestra, assisted by Walter Brauer, violin cellist made Joice at birth and mourn at death., a spirited finale to a charmingly We forget so much between the be- ginning and the end. The neglect of child life is alarming. The juvenile unit's life is destroyed by carelessness or perverted by abuse into a menace when mature. The Net Result "The net result of misfortune, aban- donment, and crime Is a neglected childhood. Government is concerned in this. Here is a field for conserva- tion. Some of the states have en- tered on the task. They found schools for the homeless, parentless child. The state gives a substitute for the parent as near as such a loss can ever be filled. "Illinois has one institution caring for" 500 boys. It is a home. They are trained, educated, taught to work, re- deemed, given their chance to liv* and use rightly the one life given each of them. This is their right. It Is society's duty to give them that chance. Society protects Itself 1r. doing so. It Is better to save th-.« child than Imprison the criminal. The conservation of child life Is both humane and defensive. 8hould Do Something. "Akin to this are child labor laws. Just enactments safeguard the child against hazardous and ' exhausting employments. There are some per- verted impulses on the subject. A healthy child of either sex ought to have . something to do outside of schoolrooms. Chores on a farm arc a blessing in disguise. The city boy often had too much idle time. spontaneous concert.
