Falr, Frank Anglifl. i It is the committee's wish to in- form the citizens of the necessity of a Juvenile Court in Kingston and invites a thorough discussion. There fs no intention of misleading anyone or railroading the scheme into exist- ence. Criticism {is justified. but it must be based on facts and actual conditions. So as to be on common ground it should be thoroughly understood what a Juvenile Court is. The funda- mental idea is the constitution of a court is that the state must step in and exercise guardianship over a child found under such adverse soc- jal or individual conditions as de- velop' crime. The Act proposes a plan whereby he may be treated, not as a criminal or one legally charged with crime, but as a ward of the state, to receive practically the care, custody and discipline that are accorded to the child and ap- proximates as nearly ag may be, that which should be given, by {its par- ents. In order to put in force a Juvenile Court plan it {s absolutely necessary to have a probation sys- tem. The probation is the very essence of the Juvenile Court's claim to rehabilitation of the juvenile de- linquent. It is the method by which the community through its courts seek to discipline, supervise and re form, offenders against society with- out imprisoning them. The task of the probation is to make an investi- gation of tRe individual in his own environment with a view to ascer- taining the causes of his anti-social conduct and in the light of these, to re-adjust him in society, It may be, of course, ' that the environment needs re-adjustment. 'One sHould not send a thief back to a den of thieves," To put the offender in cus: tody on the other hand is to isolate him'in an artificial "environment where his relations with society will be temporarily but completely sever- offender has developed to which he "Probation is the key- Another © main feature of the that parents of a juvenile offender are placed under.

No temporary vender Put upon the child by the most sympathetic judge by reason of either counsel, suggestion or threat can be availing, if after the process the ¢hild is sent back alone and into the same environment from which his trouble arose. The work must be carried into the home and to the heart of the child and\ Ms parents. Not the offence alone must pass under observation of the Court but the temptation, lagk of oppor, tunity, bad examples, all inducing causes of the offence must be discov- ered and rooted out. , It is not possible to advise a child wisely until after factors contribut- ing to its delinquency are knows. If the Court has no facilities for con- ducting investigation into these fac- tors, Child Welfare Work is serious- iy hampered. It is the duty of the probation system to. investigate and remedy as far as possible all contri- buting factors of the child's delin- quency. : ; In regard to the financial aspect of Juvenile Court in Kingston, the committee is assured that a judge can be foun@, who will act gratis. Under the Juvenile Court Aet the appointment must be made by the Attorney-General of Ontario. The t expense to be incurred would be the {W: salary for a probation officer and & court clerk. The committée has gona into this thoroughly and is posi- tive that the total expemse to comn- duet a court in Kingston will be about one thousand dollars annually. Further details in regard to the estimated expense will be made known at a later date. Practically every citizen in King- ston who has had experience in child welfare and charitable work has stated to the members of the commit- tee their opinions on the necessity of a Juvenile Court in Kingston. Without exception these people who | BRITISH WH 1G TT Sr PI GANANOQUE } Gananoque, March 6.--Mrs. F.

Lavell. pep Gus Knight, charged with assault on Tom Parks at Arden on January 14th, was found not guilty before Judge Lavell on Friday afternoon. In summing up the judge said that he was convinced that the Parks brothers were under tie influence of liquor on the night in question and he placed very little faith in the evi dence given by them at the trial. It came very close to perjury, he said, and he declared that he was not at all sure that the attention of the ma- gistrate should not be drawn to the case so that a charge of intoxication and disorderly conduct could be laid. Judge Lavell"fémarked that he did not believe that any blame could. be attached to Kuight, and he thought it very unfortunate that men like the Parks brothers could go to a home and raise a disturbance and get away with it. : The story told by Gus Knight, his wife and a number of the people who were at Knight's house on the night of January 14th, contradicted on many points the story told earlier in the trial by the Parks brothers. = Ac- cording to 'the defense. story, the Parks were intoxicated and after the a vi ultimate goal of the establishment of CHOWN lent of the Metho- who is tsttor KNIGHT OF ARDEN {his home, Sydenham street, and in- terment in Gananoque cemetery. { Mr. and Mrs. W.

I had not energy enough, or perhaps confidence enough, to try them, but she would not besdenied and sent me three es, and by the time I had taken I.knew they wére helping me and was anxious for more.
