of boys to the hopyards to camp and
filck hops. After three or four weeks of
nvestlgation the plan has been aban
doned for this year because all the boys
in the city are at work and, it is not
deemed wise to take them from the
positions where they are regularly em
ployed and send them to the hop yards
for the short time that Intervenes be
tween now and the time for school to
commence.
It wu planned that the juvenile court
should provide the boys with, transpor
tation, camping outfit and provisions
and let them pay from their earnings
merely the cost of their food, keeping
the Balance for themselves. This
method was followed very successfully
last year.
