obligation lion tion which every consideration of or humanity will tend t to enforce Those boys bors and girls are arc by bj no means dei depraved de de- i I prayed or hopeless s. s They are charges

Governor Cutlers Cutler's suggestions as to encouragement o of the Juvenile court Ills His statement that the operation o of the tho CO court lt In the past has hash had d the eff effect ct of oC preventing man many boys hos and girls from rom i taking tho the next step In IIi a mistaken career Is 15 the r ti tion n n oC of a a wise false executive and a humane man In every ever ry I r f waS

f wealth of oC the nation It deserves the strengthening which th the governor governor commends J j Hf His request for Cor on nn amendment of oC the laws relating to mar marriage deserve attention There can be no question t 1 marriages between pCr persons nM of oC clos close relationship should be j d y t tA tAlt I forbidden and prevented Single Instances of oC such union l lt may way not yield
