The record of crimes . committed by this dare-devil young Jar vane 125 woman has occupied the front page of Standard, 2 tins 35 all the daily newspapers for some > weeks past. What is the record back release a 15 of all this hectic career that led to aa 2% prison? It is a sorry story, but one 2 too often told. The young girl, Cecilla or aaa EE Cooney, had no proper upbringing. She : was born on the East Side, the squalid EE . . 99 section of New York City. Her Father Dry Goods, Groceries, FLOUR AND FEED FRUITS, VEGETABLES, CIGARS, CIGARETTES, AND TOBACCOS CANDIES, SOFT DRINKS ICE CREAM BUTTER AND EGGS was a drunkard. She was reared in neglect. Sometimes she was cared for by the children's society and sometimes she slept in the coal cellars when there was no other shelter for der. As a child she had to live by her wits, and growing up, she lived with whatever men she chanced tomeet. Finally, she adopted as her philosophy the im- morial attitude of criminals, "What the world does not give me, I take." From the very day she was born, Cecilia got a bad start. Her mother could neither read nor write. The father had very little education and had been an habitual drunkard all his life. He never worked steadily and never supported the family. What little support came into the family came through the mother. The children _ there were eight ofthem, and Cecilia was the youngest, were sadly neglect- GASOLINE AUTO TIRES AND TUBES H. A.

It is a sad story all the way through. The mother, heartless and indifferent, the father, a drunkard. What is the likely fate of the children of such parents? Just what we see here, a life of crime and then the prison. Character-building, uprightness, honesty and decency are products of heredity, but they are aslo products of enviorment. The family life, the home circle, must never depart from .our country or its doom is sealed. A nation's greatness depends upon the character, uprightness and trustworthi- ness of its people. Ahat a lesson there is here for par- ents to learn. What a clarion-call it ie for them to bring up a child in the way he or she should go. The care of the child does not cease at weaning- time or when it goes to school. In- telligence supervision, kindly interest and true comradship are necessary | even up to college days, and after if More Safety More safety and fewer accidents is a great need of this country. There are too many preventable accidents on the streets, in the homes and in in- dustry. In this Province alone, in- dustry pays, through the Compensa- tion Board, an annual tax of about six million dollars Hor accidents and this is only part of the loss, for the em- ployer and employee alike suffer every time there is an accident involving loss of time. Safety is largely a habit of mind, and like other habits can be acquired. "Thinking safety" will, therefore, praduce safety, so that both management and workers should give thought to accident prevention to the end, that the awful toll in human suffering and he very comsiderable sums of money lost may be reduced to a minimum. More safety is a reasonable demand of industry in this country and is a demand which both workers and executives will support. The First 100.600 There are upwards of 100,000 people in Canada actively engaged in con- verting the products of the forest into wealth in some form or other and with the families they represent, this means that more than half a million people in the Dominion are dependent on the forest for their living. The value of the manufactured pulp and paper products alone is $250,000,- 000 per year. The pulp and paper companies employ 33,000 men in the mills and pay them each year $40,- 000,000 in wages. The value of lum- ber, lath and shingles produced in Canada in one year is $150,000,000. If the question had been put to you would you have figured much more than a quarter of this? When you reckon that the lumber industry prop- er has an invested capital of $250,000,- 000, employing 55,000 men and pay- ing the $60,000,000 wages, here you have a forest business that reaches the stupendous distribution in Canada of $500,000,000 a year. The security for this annual income is neither mines nor wheat fields nor fisheries, but only one of the family of resources that is inflammable, viz. the foorest. A Fair Question:-- "I consider that the world owes me a living." "Ves, andwhat do you consider you owe the world ?'--Exchange. ee the young person is to benefit to the fullest from parental care. If more of the old family spirit, carried out amid the right enviroment, was in "evidence, it is most likely that fewer young folks wauld stray away from the paths of uprightness and honesty. #Eoronto Rowing men and Swimmers Kingston, manager of the rowi Tommy Walker, Turner Chapman.
