BOY LIKES REFORMATORY;
WANTS BROTHER TO COME
A lad at the atate reformatory. »ho*e
name 11 not on record at the prtem
commlaalon office, suddenly vanished
some weeks sgo.
The boy had a toad record, seemed
content and bad never caused any
trouble. The superintendent was a hit
puttied to know why the boy had
escaped,
He was missing about four weeks,
(hen one day he turned up at the In
stitution and quietly resumed hi* place
In the ranks. He vouchsafed no In
formation until questioned. Then It
came out:
"I thought It such a fine place here
for a boy that I wanted my brother to
be here with me. Bo I Juat cut It for
home to try ta get him to come back
with me. But he’s a mutt and didn’t
know a good thing when he had It
handed to him. So I Juat moaled back
by myself.” .
The lad had walked some two hun
dred miles to his, home and back to
the farm. That ought to boost the re
formatory as a deatrabls place for bad
boys who have to go there.
