Starting with a smait | }home in Orfaha, Neb. with a rar | rowed $90 to p the first month's | rent, it has now grown to such an ! extent that there was no longer room jin the city. When an opportunity came for him to buy “Overlook Farm,” near Omaha, he took advan- tage of it, anq it is here that at the present time 250 boys who otherwise might be in reform schools, are learning the joy of living and how to be valuable citizens of America. Faith in Humanity. “I have great faith in humanity, Father Flanagan said, “and I believe to help me. For this reason I have never asked aid from any church, so- ciety or fraternal organization. “We have no creed at the home, There are Protestant and Jewish boys | as well as Catholic lads, and the non- Catholics will leave thé Home with the same belief with which they en- tered it. We have twenty-one na- tionalities and eighteen states repre- sented at the Home at the present time.” public concerts, Father Flanagan said, and this is their vacation. He trav- els with groups of eighteen or twen- ty hoys for about two and a half | months, and then takes them back to | Overlook to go to school and starts out with another vacation crowd.

"REGRET HASTY GERMAN REPLY , Great Britain.to Send Own An- swer on Reparations London, May 8.—The chancellor of the exechequer, Stanley Baldwin, stated in. the House of Commons to- day that the governinent regretted the precipitancy of the Franco-Bel- gian reply to the German reparations note and proposed to state its own views in a separate reply with the get possible delay. He added there is a reason to belicve that Italy was in accord with the British and contemplated similar action, shouldn't they, for he is to many of them probably the only real father they have ever known. And he in turn is a companion, patting them on the back in a friendly fashion | and laughing with them at their jokes. 4 n Entertaining Program. The program which the boys pre- sented yesterday was highly enter- taining, and well received by the ca- pacity audiences. They seem to put their entire spirit into the musical numbers which they present, and with no help or suggestion from Father Flanagan, they conduct them- selves as veterans of the stage. overseas caps, their first act is a min- strel show, in which several of the group sing solos and two little lads entertain with a cornet duet. The secgnd act included several char- acter skgtches which pleased the audience. A band concert con- cludes the performance, and the jazz they play has all the pep of a real orchestra. Has True Comedian. A little colored boy with the troup seemed to amuse not only the audi- ence but tle lads on the stage as well. “He is q true comedian,” Fath- er Flanagan said, “and i ways pull- ing something new. He is quite orig-; inal, and almost every/night he pulls offsome new comedy stuff which is as much of a surprise to us as it is a source of amusement to the audi- ence.
