IS MORE ESSENTIAL in Juvenile Court Work Than Judge, Miss Whitton Tells the Kiwanlans. Whether or not Kingston' is to have & juvenile court is one of the most burning questions in local circles, and the interest that has been arous- ed both for and against the idea has created considerable discussion. The Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs have taken an active interest in the de- bate, and have had speakers present to lay the idea before them. Last Friday, the Rotary Club heard Mrs. A.-L. Clark on the subject, and on Monday at noon the Kiwanis Club members were addressed at their weekly luncheon at the Frontenac hotel by Miss Charlotte Whitton and Mrs. Clark. Miss Whitton went thoroughly into the work of the needs and ad- vantages to be derived from a juve- nile court in Kingston. She declar- ed that the work of the juvenile court was not merely for the pur- pose of taking into custody and de- taining juvenile law-breskers. It. was more of a court of rehabilita- tion. The work to be carried out under the laws governing the juve- nile court would prévent cases from even appearing In court at all, as the probation officers would bé able to deal with situations arising among delinquents and rectify the situations before there would be any necessity for court action, There were two important posts in connection. with juvenile court work, that of judge and of probation officer. 'The latter, Miss Whitton contended, was even more essential than the judge in that suck an offic- ial would be full time and would be | in close touch with the cases requir- ing attention. THe speaker stated that no juvenile court conld proper- ly function without the probation officer. She pointed out that the juvenile court of Ottawa had a full time probation officer and a vast amount of splendid work was being carried out by this officer, Muéh de- pended on the probation officer, She stated what was needed was the ap- plication of social service into the work of the juvenile courts. Under the juvenile act, Miss Whit- ton, stated, the law was able to get after the parents or those in charge of delinguent children and 'if they were taken in custody and detained for any length of time, parents or guardians were called upon to pay up for these delinquents. In the city of Toronto where this was in force, & considerable amount of money had been saved the munici~ pality as a result of this, Miss Whitton took up the point of area control, and stated that it was very important that the area to be covered by the probation officer should extend into the county be- cause the work could not be carried if the area were and felt that the need of a juvenile court in Kingston was a big one. Kiwanian Alan Meiklejohn ex- pressed the appreciation of the club members to the speakers for having addressed the club and also moved the appreciation of the principles of the juvenile court. The booster for the day was Ki- wanian Harry Wilder and splendid prizes were wom by Kiwanians George Hanson, Erpie Sparks, Frank Day and Bdward Walsh. George Bawden was welcomed back.

Boyd, chairman of the Industries Commit- tee, presented a ort of that com- mittee in.regard to the leasing of the old cereal building at the foot of Gore street, to the Willowdale Dairy Company; of Collin's Bay, but the Council decided to refer thd matter to the City Solicitor before dealing with it. On recommendation of the finance committee, the harbor improvement committee of lastsyear was reappoint- ed.

An aftermath of the recent visit of members of the fire and light com- mittee to the fire halls came in the recommendation of.this committee, when the members asked for permis- sion to sell some "junk" found at the fire halls, said junk consisting of two or three stoves, iron beds, har- ness, wagon and other articles. Coun- cil gave the necessary permission to this committee to go ahead with the sale. Council passed the recommenda~ tion of the property committee to expend the sum of $5,000 to com- plete the stone work being done on the city buildings.
