WXe ask of our readers a hought- f ui perusal of this excellentinom ative article on a very important subjec.-Editor. Nînety-five per cent sucess-if success cani be meiasuradi in ternis of the rastoration of respec:tablýe ctn ship of offenders aigaiust society- ,his is tihe record of the aduit pro- bation department at the end of the first year of existence. A glance at the system as it is wouking there sbould give amploe en- couragement alike to wary legisiators pledgad to guard the interests of their people, Vo social workers %who k ow ouy too welI tbe evil days that corne upon tbe f anily daprived of its bread-wiuuer, and to harassad officers of the law, perplaxed by the constant spectre of recidivism aud the frequent futility of a prison sentence Vo re-astablish the offender lu soc:iety. During 1923, 436 offenders were placed on probation. Of these 4.81 par cent proved a failk ure aud reappeared in court as "e peaters"-a record lihat speaks veli for the excellent inetiaio ork, that is beiag cdoue in counection with the probatio nul work. This work, is accomplishied by tbe joint ý activities of a ymedical doctor wbo is also a psychiatrist and two trained social investigators. The annual. cost of caring for a prùoationer in Torouto has been as- timated at $28.36. A conservative estimate of the cost of keeping Iiiim in custody for that period wou7ld ha at least $3'00.00. Add to this a consarvative estimate of $400.00 as bis earning po-wer, and it is readily sean xhat an econom'ic saving Vco a province its proibation system may become. It is notewoqrtby, too, that the 436 probationers had 425 par- sons dijrectly depeudent on themn, thoug-h two-thirds of themn wera un- der 25 ye'ars of age. Its ecounon-ic valune can ba calculat- ad, as also its su,ýccss permnanantly rehabilitatiug men and womnen in society, but it would be difflcult Vo estimate the aff ect of a probation system upon thea morale of the people it serves. "Probation", says Judge Mott, "at the same time presarves tbe self-respect of the offender and tbat of bis wife and dependents. Self-respect is one oF the most potent f actors in an individ- ual to assist iu reclainiing fimr to so- ciety and should be capitalized to the utenost". The movemeut to establisb pro- bation is growing rapidly on this continent, and from the bighest authorities is receiving the racogi- tion it desarves. An axcerpt fromn a recent address of Prasident Cool- idge before an Assemnbly of proba- tion workars is very quotable: "To save wbhatevar of! good< there is in man for thamselves sui-d for society is not a sentimental dictrine. Rt is oua that is founded on the sourd administration of Justice, Justice doas not require the destruc- tiou of that -whkoh is good. 1V ra- quires the destruction of that whiclh is evil; and Justice requires as strongly the saving of that which lu good as it does the destruction of that wbich is evil. The work thal you do is the saving of that -mhch lu good in the individual, along with th~e most ip-iportaïnt work that is be. ing doue; you are the right hand oai the admîinistration o! Justice", STORMS ON ENGLISH COAST Raceut letters and newspaipers froin our Devonshire relatives tell of severa and devasting souTh-wavst gales that have done nmuch damaige at sidmnouth Éuce, Clovelly, Appledore, Westward Ho! sud other saaports on thle west coast of Devon on Feb- ruary 27 aud 28. A Bideflrd des- patch says: Westward Ho! on Tuesday night and Wadnasday morning f at the fuil force of a strong gale -whieh swaept up from Vthe soutb-wasct, and the idas ou Wadnasday moruing ware des- cr'lbed as Vthe highest experiauced on this portion of the North Devon coast for, ovar bal! a century. Tha wall-kuown Pebble Ridge wbich keeps out Vthe sea from Nortihaux Burrows, on wbich ara sit- vuata the famous golf liniks of thie Royal Nortb Devon Club, was breacbed lu two places, and the greater portion of the Burrows this uxiorniug was under wat er. Ten feat of the sea wall which pro- tacts Golf-road, sud which bad beau uudermined ou Monday, was yesýter- day waslîed away, sud the ileavy seas, forced, their way across ' the roadway, carrying large places o! dlay sgaiust thie bu-ng-alowý,s, some o! which were surrouuded by watar sud suffered considerabie damagae. Thaelifs towards Allbotsha-m also sufferad cousiderably, large piecesi having beau litera»ly tomn out. The storm wrought cousiderabla havoc at Appledore. Two large gaps wavra made in the sea wall along the main parade, but thle prir- cipal damage was doua at West Ap- pladore, wbara about 50 I fV.o!Vie sea wall was wnasbad away laEt night, sud the breacih was considerably wideued his xuorning. Here thie full fury of Vile gale wis faît, and portions of the sewer aud gas manl were swept away with many tons o! material in wbicli they were emi- baclded. The Beaver Inn was also cousldaraqbly knocked about, doors aud windows being smashed in, wbilst sauerai othar bouses iu Vile vicinity were flooded Vo a deptil of several feet. Some of the oldar Appiedore folk can remeunber tile ide beiug ýhgher than it was lsst night aud this moriing, but it wss many years ago.
