ment." The view of the court was that what the boy need
ed, and needed badly, was punishment. What he thought
of the parents was not expressly stated, but it might be in
ferred that he thought a bit of punishment might not be
beyond their desert.
No proper-minded person upholds inhumanity or
brutality in the treatment of children, and the law prop
erly and strictly prohibits it.
But there is no real kindness or wisdom in coddling the
selfishness of chidlren or yielding to the self-will and
wrong inclinations of undeveloped mentalities.
Mature intelligences are developed in parents in order
that they may direct and control during the period of im
maturity the beings they bring into the world, and the
courts generally are endeavoring to hold parents to that
responsibility.

to a flame which is destined to consume corporate rule
and greed and scatter its ashes to the four winds of
heaven. If the people dispair of getting what they want
from a boss-ridden legislature they will abolish that body
and enact their laws by direct vote. Thousands more will
vote next year to abolish the state senate than when the
