Where is Your Boy Tonight? After the alludes of evening have fallen and the stilly night has covered the world with her mantle of darkness, how many parents could a:.B\ver this question, “Where is your boy tonight." Some parents could answer, some think that they could, but the vast majority could only haz ard a guess. The graveyards contain the dust and hell the souls of many boys who would have made useful citi zens if their parents had exercised more care and kept them in reach at night. The jails and penitentiury con tain broken and ruined men who, if they had been properly trained and properly supervised in the formative period of their exist ence, would now fco honored men instead of disgraced slaves. It is nothing short of criminal for parents to allow their children to roftip the Streets at night and to be always gadding about the busi ness section in the day time. They cannot expect to raise up true and honorable men when ttare is no espionage of the boys. There are many criminals who can testify to the truth of the statement that the neglect of their parents caused their ruin. Hereditary taint may be traced in many of those who wear the shackles, but environment has more to do with shaping the lives of those who become criminal in their tendencies than bad blood . The boy who is not kept under restraint, who is always allowed the freedom of the street, who chooses his own company, who oftentimes hears the vilest of lan guage and associates with the vil est of companions will come to grief surely. If he does not it will be nothing short of miraculous. Some wise man has said that all people are born with a depraved nature and that training and care ful training at that is needed to run out the evil and allow the good to predominate. If this statement is true, how much more important it is that there should be a more rigid supervision of the boys of the land. The hope of the country is in posterity. The world must grow better instead of worse. Parents who do not try to make better men and women of their children than they are fail to measure up to the responsibility imposed upon them when they were allowed to have children. The parents who leave the rear ing of their boys to chance, who see them only at mealtime, who prefer that they roam the streets rather than to remain at home and disturb them with noise; who ask noquestiens concerning the length of the stay or the place visited ; who delude themselves with the idea that their boy can do no harm peed not be lie surprised at any time to find that instead of an up right citizen being given to the world, a depraved und degenerate wretch is the result.—Dublin Courier Dispatch.
