' (EFFICIENT PROBATION SERVICE IS NEEDED {In Connection With Juvenile, Judge Harkness Tells the ! Rotary Club. A plea for the more scientific ap- lication of the knowledge at hand $y regard to the social problems of the day, particularly those prod- a lems which affect childrén, was the | note struck by Judge David B. Hark- ness, M.A. Winnipeg, when he ad- dressed the Rotary Club on Thursday on the subject of "Social Policy and the Child." A number of the mem- bers of the Kiwanis Club were pre- sent as were also several prominent citizens and Judge Harkness' 'mess- age was felt by his auditors to be a very timely one. The speaker emphasized the fact i that the opinion of psychologists was | that the influences brought to bear on a child during the first few years of its life had more to do with mould- ing its character than anything in after years. Judge Harkness beliav- ed that social workers had much jane knowledge regarding matters of this kind at their disposal than was made use of. In this connection he noted that carefully trained ex- perts were employed to develop the material resources of the country while no organized effort of any kind was being made to develop the future citizens, In the past fifty years, sald the speaker, Kingston had made its con- tribution to the ranks of the leaders and statesmen, but it had also pro- duced its quota of fallures, grafters, paupers and thieves, Both of these classes In so far as the future was concerned were now in their cradles, he said, and in another part of his address he declared that Ir each of these children was treated as an in- dividual case and was given sympa- thetic help"not one would turn out an absolute fallure. As a step toward better social work, Judge Harkness suggested that in a city such as Kingston a central social council be formed at no ex- pense but it would be a forum where representatives of the various social agencies in the city could meet and discuss their problems with the re- sult that = each would know what work the other agencies were 'un- dertaking and vastly better results would be obtained. The speaker who was formerly a Judge of one of the largest juvenile courts In Canada, declared himself as opposed to juvenile courts unless an efficient probation service was oper- ated in connection with them. In his opinion the work of the probation officer was more important than that of the judge. A vote of thanks was moved by Rotarian W, A. Kaiting and seconded by Retarian Harry. Breathwaite. Dur- ing the meeting Mr. Stewart Drury, 8 medical 'student at Queen's Uni- iyersity, sang a couple of solos. Ro- tarlan Jack Elder provided a bottle il | of bis new soft drink "Smile" for i} | each person present. ll FIRE AT NAPANEE; KITOHEN DAMAGED ll [Blaze Resulted From Sparks From.
