CRIME AMONG CHILDREN
Tlio...prevalence of youthful crime is causing great searching of 'heart in ■lliany quarters (savs a London rejiort), and Sir John Biiddeley, presiding at Hie Juvenile Court in tl)p city, put it down to modern educational methods, which, lie said, ..'had failed to produce boys and girls of tile old English integrity of i character, More than half of Ilio cases I recently' heard at tho Guildhall were charges of. dishonesty against boys between 13 and 17 yeoi'.s of age. It showed the absence' of moral teaching and a lack of the personal toiich between teacher and taught. If England was to keop her place among' the nations drastic measures would have to be taken on behalf of the young-people of the country.
