' ’ * ~ u ' { eappi J.-A i jIU I SAD SOY STi... Interest of Teachers Helps to Reform Lad Branded as Near Incorrigible. Tommy was Just plain bad. His classroom language would ha\e done credit to an accomplished mule skinner. He delighted in throwing rocks at passing motorists, and he was a petty thief. It seemed to his teachers that there was no hope for him. But now—well, now. you Just wouldn't recognize him as the same boy. Tommy—that's not really his name—isn't angelic, yet, but who wants to be a little Lord Fauntlcroy? The story of Tommy's reformation is one that makes his teachers, principal and Miss Kate Huber of the school social service department, swell with pride. Given Poor Start Tommy got off to a poor start in life. His father dead, deserted by his mother, he was rescued from an orphanage by his grandmother, a washerwoman. H was left to his own devices quite a lot—and he had a lot of devices—and vices—none of which was calculated to contribute to peace of the neighborhood. It was his habit of playing truant that began the new era. Tommy's teacher and the social worker investigated to learn why he played hookey so often and why he swore at his teacher and classmates. They tried to get him in a Boy Scout troop, but he wasn’t wanted there. Does Petty Stealing While they were studying his case he broke into a popcorn stand, pilfered articles from a garage and snatched a woman’s purse, landing in juvenile court, where later he was released on probation. It was decided to transfer him to another school, where his reputation wasn’t known, and he wouldn’t have a “rep’* to which he W'ould have to live up or down. There, a sympathetic teacher discerned a slight interest in poetry. She helped him write some jingles. Next, she found he liked to draw pictures of trees and other outdoor ; things. This was encouraged. His morale was strengthened with a complete outfit of new outfit of new clothes, replacing his tatters. He was mighty proud of them and went straight home from school to take them off and save them for school. Tommy was beginning to act more like a good citizen, and he was showing more interest in his studies. He ! even wanted to sit on the front j row. Keeps His Bargain So his teachers made a bargain j with him. He was to be a good school citizen and in return was to be taken to the top of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ monument. Tommp kept his part of the bargain, except for a few slips. So Tommy, Miss Huber and the teacher went downtown and climbed to the top of the Monument. He was delighted with the trip. His happy hostesses next helped him to buy a box of candy for his grandmother, and then took him to a bank, where he met the officers and saw huge vaults where the money is kept. He was all smiles and very polite, and didn't curse once. Then He Skids Shat deserved an extra reward, so Miss Huber took him to the ball park. She liked baseball and so did Tommy. The games was exciting. It was the ninth inning, the score tied. Tommy, inwardly excited, remained silent. The winning run was on third. There was a slide, a cloud of dust at home plate—and ' the runner was out. Then Tommy had to give vent to feelings. “Oh, hell," he said, disgustedly. He blushed and apologized, but the social worker understood. She was no piker; Tommy was forgiven. HUEY LONG DONS STRAW Louisiana Senator 24 Days Early With Summer Headwear.

April 22.—Beau Moss, 5, is kept indoors these days, where his mother can keep an eye on him, for Beau seems to have developed a knack for getting into difficulties.

But before he could be taken to the hospital for examination, he swallowed a quarter, thus giving the doctors some extra work.
