The intermountain country lacks belief in Itself," said the speaker. "It has the resources; it has the scenic beauties, but many of its own people still persist in going elsewhere to find wonders, while they leave those at their very doors untouched. When we appreciate our own advantages, then and then only, will we be able to roake the rest of the nation, and the rest of the world, realize what we have! ' "Our Intermountain winter is anything but a disadvantage. Win ter has its joyful side; life is made rich by contrasts even in climate! "Industrially.

Anderson, director of the Community Chest, Salt' Lake City, discussed before the students of Brigham Young university - on Friday the matter of juvenile delinquency. delin-quency. He cited two recenfeases in the state wherein the supreme court; in the one, had held that a Juvenile found guilty .of a felony could not lawfully be sent to the industrial school, and a district court in the other, that had assumed as-sumed jurisdiction and had sentenced sen-tenced the delinquents to the pent tentiary from which they had been paroled ? to the industrial schoor. Bad Situation . ' -The sDeaker characterized the juvenile situation in the state at the present time as "a mess." He expresed the hope that the legislature legis-lature at present in session would do something by way of remedy. , . Dr. Anderson gave a historical sketch of handling cases of juvenile juven-ile delinquency, and made a plea for educational methods of preventing prevent-ing delinquency; and reforming de linquents. Imprudent, and v hasty legislation and judicial decisions in Utah,-the speaker, contended, 'had put ; the' commonwealth back 30 years. ' " ' " . - ' Delinquency, he said, Is only un social conduct, and is a reaction to certain influences. If ; a child is normal he will react to social influences. in-fluences. If a child is anti-social, he should be studied with a view to discover what is wrong with him physically or what , anti-social influences in-fluences are at work. There is noth ing more essential in the life of a Child that normal social influence In the home, the school, the church, and the community. Deprived o these, he' is apt to become a delin quent.' . The court, the speaker contended, is not a proper place for handling juvenile delinquency. It is neces sary to have intelligent- examination examina-tion of cases and methods of reform. re-form. , This is not an- incMdual matter Or even a school, court or church affair; but is a community matter. ; , v, TWINS ARE BORN C.
