E d i to r California has an everywhere much-needed and exceedingly just statute in what is known us the “lazy father" law. The law pro vides that u husband or lather who fails to provide for his family shall, upon conviction, lie made to work for the county lor a wage of $1.50 a day, the money to lie used lor the maintenance of his family. This is as it should lie. It is high time that civilized communities took cognizance of irresponsible parent age as an economic evil ot perni cious growth and far-reaching mag nitude. It is the part of prudence to place a check u j h i i i it by putting “lazy fathers" to work and apply ing their earnings to the care ot theii families. —Otegoniaii.
