Chirty-six: gases were slated for a earing the court, the most im- portant which dealt with the breaking ino the freight sheds of he Oshawa Railway Company on Detober 1, Several boys, ranging in age rom 9 to 15, appeared in answer o serious charges in this copnee- ion, which included breaking and ntering in daylight, and receiving tolen goods. In all of the charges pleas of guilty were entered, and he boys were dealt with as the ndividual case required. Three of he boys were brothers coming rom a home that has been giving onsiderable trouble to the local bolice department, and in these ases the gourt did not incline to eniency, plthough it was clearly ecognized, and so stated to the ather, who was present, by the rown A , the judge, and ther officers familiar with the ircumstapees, that. the parents vere almost entirely to blame. The osts which had accrued in the hree cases amounted to well oyer 60, and since the father did not eem inclined 'to pay them, the 0Oys were Pema in the Child- en's Shelter for a week to await entence on the offences which hey have committed, and to give he court time to comsider the pro- edure which will be followeéd, bree little lads--9, 11 and 14,-- ppearing before a judze, with the ather refusing to offer a word in take upon their own shoulders the penalty of their deeds, indifferent to their fate, mot even willing to them out of the custody of the shelter, Such is the pathetic story of three brothers who have gone wrong, because their parents re- fused to teach them the straight path, Several other youths who were charged with the entry of the Osh- awa Railway premises, or recely- ing cigarettes ptolen therefrom, were also given a hearing, and on promise of their parents were allowed on suspended sentence, The Judge made it quite clear that tinued to be manifested, the law relating to neglect of children would be used to wake them up, for without the co-operation of the parents in 'this city and county, the Juvenile Court' or any other ody can not hope to achieve as high a standard of results as should be possible. Other cases of a minor nature were heard by the court, but in all of .the charges leniency was shown by the court, and the Juy Court of Osawa opened with the Ind school or other out- side Mnstriat 5 cases have which accounts three dd charges which were heard by the court, but with the official fns stitution of a Children's Court in this city, these cases will now be speedily disposed of. y ORTHOPHONIC MODELS DISPLAYED _AT FORD MOTOR CAR OPENINGS While the demonstrations of the cw Ford 'Motor car models were full swing today--having made heir debut, Friday, December 2nd another great incention was re- klled to mind by the appearance h practically call the Ford show- oms of Mo. of the new Ortho- honic Victrola.

It is on the records of crime, however, that he led the way for the crowds of crooks who have followed, He once received sentence of three years' penal servitude, and when he left Dartmoor he "showed" some intimate friends how, by clamb- ering up waterpipes, they could burgle, Posing as Mayor--, he was enter- tained at a banquet on the strength of deeds of heroism he had boasted of during the war, But it chanced that the friend of one of the offi- cers present was a Scotland Yard man, and he was recognized.
