The house stands in a cleared space at the edge of a wood, «o that plenty of sunlight 1» insured to keep the cottage fresh and airy.

But Illinois was six months ahead of Colorado in this respect. The first Juvenile court was instituted In Cbl- cago by an act of the Illinois legisla- ture." So said Col. C. B. Adams, the efficient head of the St. Charles School for Boys to the Current Events class at the Bvanston Congregational church Sunday morning. Col. Adams' topic was "The Delin- quent Boy." He is a short, stocky man, and talks right out from the shoulder. He told a most graphic and Interesting story. The first part of his address was historical. He told of his visits to Europe, and of his studies in Germany and France along the lines of what those nations wera doing for the morally backward and handicapped boys and girls. He told how, in 1885, he established in Lan- cester, O., the first boys' industrial school on the cottage or family plan ever established in the world. "Every group of twenty-five or thirty boys have a cottage of their own with a house mother to care tor them, and a house brother to advise them," he said. Is Not a Prison. "The St. Charles school is not a prison. It is an educational institu- tion, not a reformatory. It is a klnd- of boarding school for delinquent boys. The boys come from the Juvenile court of Chicago and from other courts that exercise the Juvenile court feature. Seventy-two per cent of the boys come from Chicago. They are boys that never had a chance. They are boys who are the creatures of a poor her- edity and a bad environment At St. Charles we give them a. show. We tell them to forget the past. We tell them that that past will never be mentioned If they will take advantage of this new opportunity to become use- ful men. "At St. Charles we teach the boy almost everything. He gets more than a common school education* One group of boys Is taught tailoring, an- other group Is taught shoemaking and repairing, still another group is taught mechanical engineering. There is not a first-class trade that Is not taught at St. Charles. We make our own clothes, our own shoes, our own bricks, we build our own houses, grow our own vegetables and care for our own cattle and horses. We do this, not for the purpose of utilizing the boys and saving the state mpney, but we do it for the sake of training the boys. *Many of our graduates are men In high positions receiving big sal- aries. Eugene Yssye. One of the many features in the fifth musical festival at the North- western university gymnasium next week will be the appearance of Mr. Eugene Yaaye, acknoweldged to be the greatest exponent of violin play- ing in the world. Mr. Ysaye will give a program, assisted by tbe entire Chi- cago Symphony orchestra, in the sec- ond concert, Tuesday night, May 27. The concert ha* been styled "artists' night," because of tbe superiority of Mr. Ysaye, the foremost violinist, as soloist, and members of the orchestra, who will take pari iu the program. In Mr. Ysaye's concert one of the greatest musical treats of tbe year is looked forward to by North Shore mu- sic lovers. Tbe noted violinist has won anch renown that it 1b sold since his reappearance in America; practi- cally aB of the leading musical' or- ganizations havo been eager to secure Ms services. The fact tha* he ha* been persuaded to- appear In the North Shore festival Is a compliment which alone bespeaks the quality of the talent obtained for the five con- certs mmi mum ii intoo< oYiiiiiium* May 22â€"Recital at School of Music by Miss Myrtle Palcon. pianist, and Mr. David Jacobs, violinist, at o'clock.
