YopxG boys when not at work
should be kept off the streets as much
as passible. -.W-e. notice that the boys
of some families are allowed down the
street at night instead of being at
home around the fireside. The home
influence for boys cannot bo overesti
mated. Home is the place for all
boys after dark unless' there is busi
ness that requires- tben; tq be out.
And also along .this line many men
could take heed and make their homes
happier. by spending more of their
evenings at home. If the father
spends most of his . time down town
after business; is over, the son thinks
he should be allowed the came privir

the boy is shapen by the example et
by the father--oe it for good or evil
