"The Borstal idea is to select young offenders whose minds and characters are still pliable." he said. "By example the staff de- velops standards of social be-, havior that will be lasting.
"Work shops stimulate indust- rlous habits. Sports teach fair School work and talks stim- ulate their intelligence. Instead of punishing them for wrongdoing, we draw out the best in them.
"It is a case of studying a boy and his background. When he is released he is helped and guidod

About a dozen youths have been selected from among delinquents to live at New Haven, the Borstal- type school in suburban Burnaby.
“Work is my hobby," said Smith. “I like to spend my eve- nings mixing with boys so I can get acquainted with them and they with me."

SOAPLESS SOAP HERE TO STAY
(By Dorothy Corow)
NEW YORK, Sep. 29- (AP)- Soapless soaps have taken a per- manent place on kitchen shelves.
Edging in beside traditional soap chips and powders since the wars end, the synthetic detergents at first met tho housewife's sceptic- ism. Now she has accepted them on their merits.
They rank among tho top-sell-
tan/M , £457’ FELL use:
‘be it resolved that the Board of‘ .
used for dish washing and hand laundering_'arid recently heavy duty soapless soaps have appeared for use in the fant- ily washing ntachine.
Despite the fuct that they are not soap at all. but chemical con:- pounds made from petroleum or vegetable oil dtrivatlves. soap manufacturers concede that syn- theiic detergents are here to stay and advertise their own detergents right along with their more fa- miliar soaps.
The new cieansters are par- ticularly effective in hard water areas. To them it means an end to the gummy residue left when soap combines with lime or mag- nesium in the water. The deter- gents are soluble in any kind of water-hard or soft. not 01’ C016- oSynthetic detergents were used on a broad scale industrially be- fore the war, but the household version was a mere infant when the war cut off production for civilian use.
Production capacity of synthetic detergents at the end of last year was estimated at 250,000,000 pounds annually. compared with soap sales of 3.500.000 pounds.
Facilities for producing the de- tergents have been expanded and research and testing of products
are going on at a fast pat-c. Thus
far the industry has bccn cun- centrnting on powdcrcd houzie- hold detergents and liquid auti
cream shampoos, hut among other ‘logical outgrowths" in the offing, some in the industry say, are bu;- toilet soap and a wide vnrwli‘ oi preparations tailored for special used and varied types of water.
