Offleera nnd men are welded Into a doner romrndexhlp by (lunger end discomfort ahured. They learn to trust ench other and to look for the rNscntlnt qualities) rather than for the uccldeutiil grace. One lenrns to love men for their great heart, their pluck, their Indomitable spirit, their Irrepressible humor, their readi ness to shoulder a weaker brother's burden In addition to their own. One sees men aa Ood ace them, Huirt from external such a manner nnd In tonation. A night In a bombing party show you Jim Smith aa a man of splendid courage. .V short a of rn tlotia reveal his ' jinfcrfuT GnRulftsh no'.

Those compelled to work this gnrden are youths who have been caught tres passing In, or In some way Injuring, a garden or park. In referring to this novel arrangement the Youth's Com panion says : "The Idea has grown out of a practice of the Bomervllle police court which compel young evildoers to make Rome sort of restitution to those whom they have Injured."
