1912Thurman Hurst, '12 law, district judge of

the Tulsa-Pawnee counties district, passed an un-usual sentence May 9 when he sentenced a boyto attend Sunday school each Sunday for twoyears. The boy admitted stealing a radio setvalued at $100 and would normally have beensent to a reform school . "I think it's a good ideato follow such a policy in cases where the prison-er is young and it is his first offense," JudgeHurst explained . "If we can keep these boys inSunday school, there will be fewer of them in-volved in crime . Boys who attend church regu-larly don't usually land in jail . Too frequentlyboys sent to a reform school on their first of-fense only learn to be more confirmed criminals .However, the court can go to extremes in the ques-tion of leniency . Where a deliberate intent tocommit crime is shown sympathy should not beallowed to interfere with the court's ruling . Theidea of sending a person to a penal institutionis two-fold : first, to punish the law violator, andto warn society and those persons tending towardcriminal intent that punishment awaits them ."

WANDERINGTHROUGH WESTCHESTER

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 326)

here, I might add a personal touch bytelling you that George B. (beak) Park-er, that loyal and renowned Sooner of1907, has just taken, for himself andfamily, a beautiful colonial home there .It is quite a way from Deak's place ofbusiness (a good hour-and-a-half's rideon the train), but I rather think Deaklikes that ride, because there's always agood bridge game going on in the clubcar . Right at present, Deak is in California(no, not with Mayor Walker), and, when

June

he returns, he will find his bag and bag-gage moved from Bronxville to Mt. Kisco,for Adelaide Loomis Parker, 1906, is mostefficient when it comes to moving, andshe says Deak just gets in her way any-way . Young George B . and Mary Parkerare already in school at Scarboro, and theysay they love it . Long years ago, HoraceGreeley spent much of his time at Mt .Kisco.We often drive on up to Briarcliffe

Lodge at Briarcliffe, N . Y., and the naturalscenic beauty of the place is a pleasure tosee . It is located 'way up on top of a hill,and looks out over one of the most beauti-ful golf courses I've ever seen . Westches-ter, you know, is the golf center of theworld, having more than 40 golf clubswhich are among the most beautiful andwell-known in the country . BriarcliffeLodge is one of the old resort hotels, andits socially prominent and distinguishedclientele is something to think about. In-to its old rooms have passed the Vander-bilts, the Astors, the Goulds and theRockefellers ; and Chauncey Depew spenttwenty summers there . It is the famousstopping place for the parents of youngladies in the near-by exclusive girl'sschools, such as Mrs Dow's school atBriarcliffe, Miss Mason's school locatedat Tarrytown and Miss Fuller's schoolat Ossining .And so on we could wander through

Westchester, steeped in its rustic beautyand the history of the past ; for instance,two miles south of the quaint little villageof Katonah is the old homestead, builtand occupied by John Jay, the great friendof Washington, and the first chief Jus-tice of the United States ; and on up toPeekskill, that strategic point during theRevolutionary War . But all things have abeginning and an end, and in closing, letme use a paragraph taken from the WhitePlains Daily Reporter for February 25,1925, but which still rings true:

"Westchester is not a boom county .Its growth is steady and consistent, andas vigorous as anyone could desire . Withall their great growth, with all their op-portunities, there are no sections of theUnited States that approach New YorkCity, the center of the world . We ofWestchester are almost part of the greatmetropolis, with the added advantagesof being entirely separate from it . Theromances of Westchester-there aremany of them-where individuals havegrasped their opportunities and realizedupon them, are as numerous as can befound anywhere in the country, al-though they have not been so well'press-agented : "
