lfi THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN, A SONG FOR CHRISTMAS. Chant me a rhyme of Christman— Sin* me a Jovial song— And though It In filled with laughter, Let it be pure and strong. Sing of the hearts brimmed over With the story of the day— Of the echo of childish voices That will not die away. Of the blare of the tasneied bugle, And the timeless clatter and beat Of the drum that throbs to muster Squadrons of scampering feet. But. O. let your voice fall fainter, Till, blent with a minor tone. You temper your song with the beauty Of the pity Christ hath shown. And aing one verse for the voiceless; And yet, ere the song be done. A verse for the ears that hear not, And a verse for the sightless one. For though It he time for singing A merry Christmas glee. Let a low. sweet voice of pathos Run through the melody. ^-James Whitcomb Riley In December Reader.

She did not overdraw the pic ture* of the improper way In which delinquent* are treated by the law. She did not need to do ho. Neither did Hhe picture their sufferings, hut *ne told how to nave them, and something of her own enthusiasm Inspired the au dience. which hung on each word nhe uttered, and without doubt every per son In that hall went out determined to do more In the future to aid the erring youh to again reach and follow the rirht path. At the opening of her address she Im pressed upon the audience the predous- nes* of the child'* soul. '•I believe," nhe nald, "that every boy ban within him ponslbtlltle* for true and noble manhood, and If these do not grow It I* because they are crushed out. The feeble-minded, the deaf and the dumb are oared for by the state, hut It remained until the end of the last century for the utate to assume Ih responsibility in caring for other than the Intellectual training of the child." She pointed out that It was impossible to educate only one side of the child’s nature without a danger to the com munity. The other side of a child—the moral Hide—lias also a right to be cared for. "We have nearly exterminated small pox; we have exterminated all the plagues of disease, and the state must be as energetic In stamping out the germ of crime us It Is In regard to the germs of disease. Chicago was the first city to paaa a law for the protec tion of Juvenile offenders. If you are going to check crime, you must take It at th$ beginning In the child."

Mrs. Hchoff had almost single-handed started this benevolent work In Philadelphia, and many nutfons. Including Austria and Sweden, had sent representative* to study the laws regarding neglected children which she had been Instru mental In having enacted.

It ha* come to my knowl edge, by personal Inspection, that peo ple who under British law cannot be considered guilty are compelled to as sociate with hardened criminals of the worst stamp." Mrs. Schoff had shown hint that the offending children should not be treated as delinquents or crimi nals at all. but with love and kindness, and nature would respond to the trust placed In them. He was glad that Mr. Kelso had found that 96 per cent of the boys with Whom be had to deal had turned out well.
