CHIME AND CRIMINALS
A prominent physic'an of the our.
ty takes the position that there is
some defec: in tho train cells of ev
ery criminal that no person in his . feathers."
right mind will commit a crime.
Crantirtr that this physical! i.i cor
rect, and doubtless he is, our entire
tystem of dealing with criminals is
wrong. It is true that men and wo
men who commit crimes must be con
fined for the safety of society, but if
they are mentally unbalanced to the
extent that the effect shows it
self in actual trans-rression of
the laws, why not make a change
in our system of dealing with this
class of unfortunates and employ ex
rerti to diagnose the cases and pre
scribe treatment for the trouble in
stead of undertaking to make them
ttor-e f jr their acts through suffer
ing! The law of cause and efTect is
absut the only law that calls for our
serious consideration anyway. When
the cau3e for anything is removed, as
a natural confequence the thin? itself
disappears. If we follow this line of
reasoning to its logical conclusion,
the only thing that is going to de
crease the percentage of crime is the
uplift of the race through the proper
timulation of brain eclb, and it will
take generations to do this to any
appreciable decree. And the uplift
tnvst begin in the homes end the
chools and churches. Parents,
