SIX Sin GERMS E BOYS MAK BAD Expert, in Church Talk, Points Out Causes of Juvenile Delinquency. REFORM SCHOOLS USELESS They Never Ilefomi," Doelnres Judge) Galena at Fin Congrcgutlonal Cluircli PaHor Dyott Saya Wont Youth Has Good. The reform school never reforms boy any more than the penitentiary does a man," said W. X. Gatens, Judge of the Juvenile Court, In an address at the First Congregational Church last night. Judge Gatens said the causes of Juvenile delinquency were povesty, neg lect of parents, demoralizing moving pictures, divorce, lack of moral training In the home and school and the cxlt-j Dr. Luther R. Pyott. pastor of the church, said: "We should have, lust now, at least 400 men who will become Big Brothers.'- The pastor said the right kind of com panlonshlp Is one of the things the little brother" needs to make him an upright citizen. Judge Gatens said In part: "Most all child crime is traceable to poverty, brought on through the death of one or both parents, through Indus trial conditions or through the separa tion of the parenta by divorce. In most cases of divorce the children are awardod to the mother, who has little or no means of support for herself and her children with the result that she is compelled to seek employment and to place her little onea with strangers who have no per onal Interest In the children. No won der the children get away from the con trol of parents and fall Into crime. Parenta Are to Blaine. "Then we have the over-Indulgent par. ents who permit their children to do as they please, stsy out at night, choose their own associates and their own amusements. Children are not hard to manage or please If you study them. Sosne need a good sound thrashing. Tha most effective way In my opinion to control a boy Is to gain his confidence. T think parents should impress upon the child Its good qualities, appealing to Its pride and not continually telling It Its bad habits. Boys should be en couraged, not discouraged. Fathers should make companions of them as much as possible and try to get them to bring their troubles home without fear, for remember, 'that tyranny Is the father of treason.' I think that moving picture thea ters, though interesting and Instructive, too often show pictures of the pranks of bad boys, of burglary and highway rob bery; scenes which ars highly demoraliz ing. As Pope says: Vice la a monster of so frightful mien. As to be haled needs but to be seen. Yet seen too oft. familiar with the face. We first endure, then pity, then embraoe. The boy who visits the moving pic ture show and seea these things soon looks lightly upon the seriousness of such crimes with the result that ho Is pt to imitate the pranks displayed and soon finds himself In serious trouble. These scenes In the moving picture hows should not be permitted. J It-form School Is Rapped. "No boy should be committed to the reform school If there Is any hope for him. for the reform school never reforms done, there were the spirit and practice of the big-brother movement. Movement Comes Here. "Here In Portland the movement Is now being inaugurated, and every man who has a place In his heart for a boy, especially the boy who. is not altogether good, ought to enlist In this movement. Who are some of the boys needing us? They are such boys as are brought be fore our Juvenile Court, and such as are in danger of committing such deeds as would cause them to be taken there: others who are defective physically and morally, and others who, for many rea sons, need a big brother. "The first filing is for a man to be genuinely interested In such, a boy Then ha must find the point of contact in the boy. As a rule, this can be done through something In which the big brother and this strange little brother are mutually Interested. "If It Is durinar the ball-game season. take him to see a game of ball, and when he feels like 'hollering' let him 'holler'; perhaps It might not hurt you to shout with h m. Take mm to in circus. If It be circus time; take him to see a good, clean play at tne tneater once in a while. Take a long walk with him Into the country. Have him visit you in your home. Visit him in his home. Get acquainted with his par ents, if they are living: get acquainted with his teacher. If he attends scnooi Find out the studies In which he is not so much Interested, and help him to become Interested. Take Him to Church. "Go with him to his church, and If he wishes to visit your church, take him to your pew and. after services, intro duce him to your friends. Encourage him to establish habits of reading. Teach him lessons of Industry, thrift and economy. "Help him In the ways he needs to be helped, but always make him more self reliant by showing him how to help himself. There Is enough good In the worst boy to make a good man. Find that good, and help the boy educe It. My appeal la. therefore, to men who can. If they will. Join the big-brother movement and help the boys who need you. We should have. Just now, at least 400 men who will serve in this movement."

Tho Coos Bay Creamery Company, ope rating a creamery on Coos River, has made plans for starting a condensed m'lk plant.

A committee has been appointed to solicit stock to the amount ot $10,000 from the farmers. With "Existing Systems and Experi ments In Moral Education in Europe, Japan and America," as his subject, Pro fessor H. D. Sheldon, head of the depart ment of education at the University of Oregon, who lectured" at the Unitarian Church last night, told what had been done in different countrlea toward moral instruction In the .schools. Japan, said Professor Sheldon, was the first country to introduce moral Instruc tion In schools, having taken up the work In 1891 Reports of educators who have visited the country indicate that the movement has met success In the common schools. In some of the larger schools. In some Instances, instructors have proved unsatisfactory and the method has not shown so good results. Japan and France, he Said, were the only nations which have dealt with moral Instructions from a National point of view. The lecturer said that about half of England's schools 'were open to moral Instruction, while Felix Adler, who con ducts a large private school In New Tork. has Introduced moral Instruction In his institution with good results. "It Is really only 10 years since this movement has been started," said Pro fessor Sheldon, "and It is hardly possible to tell yet how satisfactory the results will be, but where conditions are favor able, where the people are ready, and where conditions and teachers are such that the teachers will take hold of this, much excellent work can ba done in the schools. My personal opinion is that teachers interested in moral instruction should prepare themselves and have an opportunity to teach. Probably In this way the best results can be obtained. "A more violent and appreciative ap plication of history and literature would, in my opinion, do a great deal In this work. Morality Is not negative; It is positive, and no amount of negative treatment will help; we must have a positive method." In his closing remarks Professor Shel don said that a great deal of good could be accomplished if moral teaching were applied at tha various children's play grounds.

OREGON ASYLUM FAVORED Governor of Alaska Opposes Keep Ing Insane in North. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash I nir ton. Jan. 15. In view of the at tempts made at the last, session o Congress to secure legislation for the establishment of an Insane asylum at some point In Alaska, for the perma nent treatment of all Insane residents of that territory, the following rrom tha annual report of Governor Clark becomes of Interest: "The number of Alaska insane per sons in the sanitarium at Mount Tabor, Portland. Or.. Is now 122. This is a decrease of 11 since one year ao, al though prior to that time the number of Alaska Insane had been increasing rather steadily. The Insane are cared for at Mount Tabor under a contract made April 28, 1909, at the rate ot $330 per annum per capita. In my opin ion this arrangement is much more satisfactory than the plan proposed of constructing an asylum In Alaska for the care of insane. Their treatment is much more likely to be successful In a climate milder In Winter than the Interior of Alaska, and less cloudy and rainy than the Alaska coast."
