He has stuck to the club for three
years. Several of his boys have gone
to school or college, and the others
frankly asked one of them how Jack
.did it, he replied. "Well, I don't know
exactly, he never preached much. He
just showed us something better and
then talked to us straight When we
got to going better we wanted to stay
so, and he helped us. I guess it was
his own life more than anything else
that did the stunt." "His own life,"

Walking along a railroad track one
I '-uiu.iy utienioon we discovered a
. stone nut in which two factory bovs

:on a pipe. They were the leaders of
i a gang, and tho others had been sent
lout to swipe enough tin to cover the
rooi. At la.-t we had found the head
quarters of the terrors of tho town.
I crimps we should have had them ar
rested, but we didn't: Instead of a
policeman we sent a young college
graduate who liked bovs and who be-
uevi-a that every boy could be reached
if one could only touch the hidden
spring. He touched it. He got ac
quainted, became their friend and then
their leader, and in six months the
gr.ng becme a boy scout p.-.trol a
