"All girls ure fundamentally same “The chief need of the less forts thi nate in sympathy and understanding, | “Even the coarsest girl can be reached and is most responsive If you can delve far enough into her neart to really understand lier.” This is what Miss Elizabeth Day Lanier, daughter of Charles D, Lanier, wealthy publisher, told me the other day as we sat in the living room of her luxurious home in Greenwich, Conn. Recently Miss Lanier waa a guest for a week in the Bedford Ro- formatory to study the inmates and conditions there, Although the mati. tution has a record which is constant. ly before the public concerning wild girls, riots, the throwing of flatirons and hurling of knives, Miss Lanicr declares that she found little difter- ence between the girls there and her own Intimate friends, “Of course. hope you will take me In @ proad sense,” said Miss Lanier, as her large intelligent and keenly eympathetic hazel eyes met mine. “I mean that at heart these girls are fundamentally the same as my friends. Sometimes their hearts are hard to reach because environment and evil associations have played such havoc with them, But,after all, qualities and charac- teristics in theso girls which I have found in my most intimate friends Reach those girls hearts and you find the same girlish nature of their more carefully reared sistef.” It is only fair to Miss Lanier to say that she does not ‘care for the publicity which has come to her since her visit to the institution and at first refused to talk about the matter at all, But when I persuaded her that her experiences at the re- formatory might induce other young girls who have the leisure and the power to talk to their less fortunate yisters, she consented to the inter- View, although she has promised the institution that she will not tell about individual cases. TOLD SHE WASN'T WANTED, BUT WON GIRLS’ CONFIDENCE. “I wont up there merely to meet the girls and try to understand them better,” said Miss Lanier, “At first they turned their backs upon me. One day, when I went into the laundry and tried to talk to some of them, | they told me in strong language that *e I was not wanted.
