Every year six hundred Nebraska boys are committed to tho Stato In dustrlal School. Each ono of these boys costs you and tho other tax pay ers $200.00 a year to keep. This docs not cover tho cost of apprehension, trial and loss of production. Neither does it cover the cost to the Individ ual for the years that ho spends In confinement, tho loss of opportunity and the stigma that is forever attach ed to his name. According to tho records of the great juvenllo courts, Boy Scouts nover appear before them. That Is the reason that every Juvenllo Judge Is a staunch supporter of Scouting. It provides somothing constructive to do. Tho Scout program eliminates the dangerous idlo moment It provides n moral law that Is surpassed only by the great Ten Commandments. It pro vides wholesom'o masculino leader ship during tho critical years when n kind word or a kind act mar moan the difference botwuen success and ruin. 'Does it pay? Thoro seems to be no doubt!

TruKteo In Bankruptcy CHILD SAVING WORK IN ARMENIA TOLD BY AN AMERICAN Charles V. Vickrey Gives Facts of Near East Relief Pro ( gram for Orphans. Charles V. Vickrey, general secre tary of tho Near East Relief, has re turned from a trip of inspection throughout Central Europe and the Near East, nnd mado a report to tho trustees of tho Near East Relief In which he covers in detail tho actual work of child saving now being con ducted by the great American relief organltntlon in the Near East Mr. Vickrey believes that "n few millions' of dollars wisely expended at this time In tho education of tho children of tho Near East, In character building end In moulding these young lives, will be worth vastly more to the world CHARLES V. VICKREY. than, billions of dollars spent inter in suppressing International warfare nnd strife." Mr. Vickrey considers the need In the Near East and especially In Ar menla greater than anywhere elso in the world, because, as ho says, "In tho countries of Central Europe there are going governments which have merely been temporarily impoverished by war. In the Near Enst, on tho other hand, there Is no such thing as stable gov eminent. The whole fabric of the state hns to be created from the be ginning, and tho lnr."' 'it nnd help less children have to . trained to tho responsibilities ot future citizenship. Peace In the Near East and, in great measure, throughout tho world, will depend very largely on tho character of the citizenship of the peoples of the Near East." Irresistible Appeal of Orphans. Describing tho orphnnugo work of tho Near East Relief In tho Armenian Republic, Mr. Vickrey said: "We have at Alexandropol In the Caucasus, one orphanage where there arc approximately 10,000 homeless children, fatherless or motherless, many of them having no known living relntlvo. Some of them do not even know their own nnmcs, or tho place of their birth. They hnveghown wonder ful recuperative prrtvers, and to see them play their kindergarten or other games under tho direction of our Ameri can relief workers, one could never be lieve that ,thcy had passed through tho years of suffering that most of them havo experienced since they, or their parents, were driven from' their homes In Central Turkey flvo years ago. "For the accommodation of these or phnns there are sixty splendid stone buildings, erected as barracks for the Russian army. These buildings are now given to us by the Armenian gov ernment for a period of ten years and lend themselves admirably to relief purposes. "This orphanage at Alexandropol is but one of tho 229 orphannges thnt the Near East Relief is now operating In various parts of the Caucasus, Anato lia, Olllclo, Syria and tho Constantinople-Straits nrea. "Thirty miles from Alexandropol, at Kars, there Is another group of Rus sian army barracks, which wero given us by tho Armenian government for relief purposes. I was going through the dormitories of this orphanago at Kars when the young American col lege girl in charge turned to me and said : 'Mr. Vickrey, it Bomctlmcs makes me feel Just n little older than Me thuselah to be called "Mother" by 0,000 of those Armenian children.' And that Is exactly what she was tho only mother that these 0,000 Ar menlnn children have, except as she avails herself of the organized assist ance of native Armenian women, In caring for this large family. "In the hospital at Kars I found 1,1W) beds, which, the day I was there, were occupied by 1,208 patients, It frequently being necessary to put two or more children In a single bed. At Aloxsndropol we have In ono hospltnl, or group of hospital buildings, 1,560 trachoma patients. At Karaklls, forty miles east of Alexandropol we have an orphanage devoted exclusively to the care and training of the blind children. At Delljun we have another orphanage, located on a mountain side, for the care of tubercular children, this segregation being ns much for the welfare of the healthy children In tho orphanages nH for the care of the unfortunate consumptives. At Erlvnn we formerly had twenty-six distinct orphannges, though they havo now been reduced and consolidated to seven in number. There are some thing more than 0,000 orphans In the region of Harpout" LOCAL HOY MAKING (500D IN THE EAST, WRITES OF Tltll' TO WASHINGTON. Milton Weeks, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert M.
