THE HANOVERIAN 21 Eitvrarg THE REFORMER ISS Reed was a teacher in a large school. Most of her pupils were from the foreign section of the city. She loved her Work and did her best to inspire proper thoughts in these children Who Were to be the future of America. It was not a simple task, for many, on entering, Were unable to speak a Word of English, yet, through her patience and understanding, she had Won the admiration and loyalty of all of them. One afternoon each Week was devoted to some current topic. Her topic for this afternoon was on the prisons of the city. A little boy at the back of the room seemed particularly interested. The teacher gave a description of the old prisons. The little boy's face assumed a sad expression. Then she went on and told of the reforms being made through the assistance of public don- ations. The lad's face brightened. The lecture was short and school was dismissed early. Miss Reed sat down at her desk to do some Work. The door opened and Gusty Benito entered. He Went up to the teacher shyly, and said, Teacher, Will you bring some money to the prison if I give it to you ? Why of course I Will, said the teacher, placing her arm about the little boy. But you seem Worried. Is there anyone you know in prison ? Yes, my brother. He's been gone a long time. I have to stay alone now almost every night, cause he took things that didn't belong to him. I told him not to, 'cause you told us never to take things that didn't belong to us. But he Wouldn't mind me. Of course you're right, Gusty, and I'm very sorry about your brother, said the teacher. But perhaps he Will be a bet- ter brother when he returns, for, do you remember What I told you about people giving books and money, and helping the pris- oners to improve themselves? Did your brother have any par- ticular kind of Work ? No, replied Gusty, dolefully, That's why he had to take things. When he Worked he could buy them, but when he didn't, he had to take them. I understand, said the teacher, now if you bring the money tomorrow, I Will send it to the prison and perhaps it will do a great deal toward making your brother better. That evening, in a dingy house, by a dim gas light, the little boy wrote a note. After it was finished, he produced, from its hiding place under the couch, a half dollar. He Wrapped it in the note. In the morning the precious contents were given to the teacher. That afternoon, as the prison Chaplain was opening contri- butions for the Prison Reform Fund, he smiled sadly as he took the half dollar from a note written in a scrawling hand 5 I earnt this myselluf. Please learn my brother somethin'.
