Ci;V THIS BE TRUE? If you accept the word of the Rev. Wilbur Crafts, president of the international reform bureau, the boys and girls of thL? country are staging a "crime wave" o" th most startling proportions. He declares that the majority of big crimes, are committed by minors, that yven youngsters are arreted to every adult and that for every' boy arrested there are 10 girls taken into custody. It would be interesting to know how far his survey has extended in order to give him any bis;s whatever for the most terrible indictment that could be made against modern civilization. For boys and girLs are not naturally bad and are not, by Instinct or desire, criminals. As a matter of fact there are those who believe that no boy and no girl Is really "bad" but that all their waywardness is produced by environment, lack of training or proper sympathy. If there bo any basis whatever for his charge, then there is indeed cause for investigation and some perturbation. The head of the reform bureau traces the cause of thin condition to thejr difference of parents to the habits and associations of their children and to a fear on the pj.rt of parents of arousing any opposition In their offspring. The most appaling rart of his charges is that the girl of today iö 10 times more criminal than her brother and that the young girl ha-s thrown off the restraints of conventionality and become something more than a problem. The bulwark of civilization lies in the sanctity of the home and of womanhood and any appreciable increase of numbers of girls who are early sidetracked from the path of propriety call.s for a remedy. If there be truth at all in the charge it can probably be traced to the fact that right for right'. sake is an almost forgotten doctrine in many homes and many schools. The fear of punishment no longer deters either men. women or children from their own mad desires. Neither boys nor girls were ever held in leash by threats of penalties. Both have been directed to decent ways and right habits by holding out the 'rewards of right living and right thinking. It L quite likely that Dr. Crafts, whose judgment cn some matters has never equalled hi? high purposes, is mistaken. If he tells but half the truth, every father and mother, even,' teacher and every minister should set about to discover the reason for juvenile delinc;uency and Its possiole remedies. If the modern home no longer protects, the community must provide something of a substitute of that institution where the right environment and associations will keep the boys and girls away from the hands cf the police. o WHAT YOU EAT. Vegetarians are shocked to learn from Vilhjalmur bHefansson. Arctic explorer, that he and two trapper companions lived two years eating nothing except sea meat. ThL happened on Stefansson's last scientific expedition on the great sheet of ice that forms constantly near Alaska and, moving 1 miles a day. travel on up over the North Pole, then southeast 400 miles, until it is melted as it strikes the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic ocean. For two years Stefansson and his two followers tasted no vegetables. They had seal meat for breakfast, lunch and dinner nothing but seal meat, for two whole years. -Dieticians predicted that t lie three explorers would perish unless they had a balanced diet, vegetables for carbo-hydrates, mixed with the protein of meat. An exclusive meat d'et, they told .Strfansoon, would kill any mar.. They said they knew this because they had tried it on a guinea pig! How would you like to have nothing to at except seal meat, for "0 days two years'. After living on seals a week, th" explorers lost their appetites. Kven the thought of a seal made; them gag. Several das without food. Then seal meat began to smell good. After that, appetites returned and thenceforth no one hesitated when the cook whistled. Lord Strati. cona. builder of the Canadian Pacific railroad, for yearn ate only one- meal a day. And that meal was always the same. At ! he was doing iwo men's work and helping run the British government in his spare time. He never tired of that unchanging menu. Why should he? Chines never tire of rice, nor Scotchmen of oatmeal, nor Norwegians of herring.

Craving for a change of food is due to a palate that is jaded by ,ariety, not by monotony. From Stefansoon's experience, learn two important thincs about food: FIRST: People take on the characteristics of what they cat. Stefansson saya he ate so much seal meat that he probably began to smell like one. for polar bears scented him and his companions t miles away. SFCOND: A d'et of nothing but meat worked all right in the frozen north, due to severely cold weather and the explorers' hard work. In a warm climate, the same diet would kill. It would be doubly deadly for the indoor worker who doesn't get much exercise. o Iove is blind, especially love of liquor so is the ioer after drinking some of it. u 'Grose-berry. raz -berry, blue-berry, Ne-bcrry" Fse on of thes to whittle a fine wheeye.

It was at the Notre Dame football banquet the other night and llockr.o was conducting the obsequies over the record-- of the departing senior football stars.
