Such bad, bad children! And yet there was one woman who didn't think | 80; @ woman whom overybody knows | as the original American suffragett but whom few auspected of a moni sympathetic and motherly understand- tng of child nature. Mrs, Sofla M. Loebinger, who has lived for a number gf years at No. & Bdgecombe avenue, watched the ‘bad, bad children,” and decided that misdirected energy was a better explanation than original sin for the lawless exploita, ‘Therefore she vegan taking dally walks.

And each child who sald “'yes" received a blank sp to de filled out with the names, ages and addr of twenty of his trignds, who might also ike tu become members of the Junior Park Protective Leagu They held their first meeting in a garage belonging to Mrs. Loebinger's neighbor, Mrs, Bell, And for probably the first time in their lives those neigh- borhood terrors got an inkling of the fact that they were American citizens. “I told them," says Mre. Loebinger, “that they were just as good as any- body else. 1 told them that when they grew up they could be mayors and governors and presidents, I told them that the clty belonged to them and that they ought to be proud of it and help take care of it, instead of doing their best to deface and destroy it, I don't believe anybody ever talked lke that to them before, and it certainly made a hit.” It made a lasting tmpresston, too, for ever since those children have consti- tuted themselves jealous guardians of law, and order, They not only refrain from smashing street lamps and stoning motorists, but they keep their elders up to the mark. There was a delicates- sen shop that amelied to heaven.
