They THE CRIME OF BEING YOUNG. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. ad © ees the present laws and police regulations of New York it is a misdemeanor for children to play marbles in the streets; it is a crime to skip rope on the sidewalk,” said Lester F. Scott, Assistant Director of the People’s Institute. “Eighty per cent. of the juvenile crimes for which children are brought to court consist of one or another form of rational play.” For penologists the New York child must provide an admirable demonstration of the crime of being young. In the men and women of New York who had the good fortune to grow up in the country or the small town the demonstration only inspires a great helpless be- jwilderment and indignation. They who were American boys and American girls in a saner Plage and time see this as the apotheosis of abnormality—the fact that in playing marbles or skipping rope the New York child runs the chance of being branded as a public. male- factor. . What is the answer? The only one which is both practical and humane is that which The Evening World has given repeatedly, “A playground for every child.” And, if not a literal playground, a play root, a play street, even a vacant lot, dedicated to children’s rights. Meanwhile, until this desideratum is accomplished fact, the re- |spectable citizen of this community may well temper his smug con- demnation of the youthful gangster with the reflection, “There, but for the grace of a healthy outlet for my adolescent energy, go I!” The Stories : _- Of Stories Plots of Immortal Fiction Masterpieces By Albert Payson Terhun YOOOOODOOUG (oprah, 1010, Dy The Drees Publahing Oo, (The New York Bracing Wortd) No. 32—THE MILLER OF HOFBAU. By Anthony Hope. T HB Princess Osra, sister to merry King Rudolph III., was the love- Hest woman in all Ruritania, and the most capricious. Suitors languished tn vain for her favor. No man, it was said, could look upon her unmoved. She gloried in her power, Yet once she chanced to hear her royal brother declare: “There is, I believe, but one man in the country whom Osra will not move, and he #s the Miller of Hoftau.” ‘When the Princess Osra seemed tmolined to challenge this odd etate- ment the King laughingly promised her: “If you convert him to the love of woman you shell have the finest bracelet in Strelsay.” Osra, piqued by her brother’s doutt (end even more anxious to prove her power over men than to win ¢he bracelet), rode forth one day alone to the village of Hofbau. There, beside the river, stood the mill, end, sprawling in the sunshine at the mill cottage doorway, est the Miller—a fine, big, lasy fellow, who glanced up with utter indifference as the beauti- ful girl dismounted from her horse and etood before him. Osra opened the talk by asking him for a glass of milk. He told her, yawningly, that there was a pail of milk somewhere in the room behind him and that she might go in and find it for herself.
