The history of child
protection services
BY DOROTHY SIMPSON
The need for the protection
of children was not noticed
until the late 1800's. People
still believed that a parent
had the right to treat a child
in any manner they found fit.
Although early families did
not have the violent tenden-
cies felt today, `evidence of
abuse was prominant.
The concern for the young
in Canada was headed by
John Kelso of Toronto. He
wanted something done
about the cruelty, abuse and
exploration of children in the
late 1800's. The only form of
protection the children had
was based on the already
established animal protec-
tion services. The first step
the Toronto council took was
in the establishment of the
Toronto Humane Society.
There was great opposition
of the inclusion of children in
the society because the anim-
als would not receive ade-
quate protection.
The later being the devel-
opment of the Toronto Child -
rens Aid Society with Mr.
Kelso as president. The
administration, financing
and staffing was carried out
by interested citizens as a
Christian Duty. The Ontario
government's passing of the
act Prevention of Cruelty to
and Better Protection of
Children in 1893 provided for
the establishment of the
Childrens Aid province wide.
Today there are SO Soc-
ieties throughout Ontario.
They are guided by the Child
Welfare Act a much amend-
ed version of the 1893 act.
The law provides the Child -
rens Aid the authority and
responsibility to take immed-
iate action. If need be they
can remove a child immedi-
ately to a place of safety.
They, must within 24,,hours
notify the courts of their
actions and the reasons for
them. The court gives the
society temporary wardship
of the child with responsib-
ilities for his care. A child in
permanent care is made a
ward of the crown and the
society is delegated to care
for him., Parents or legal
guardians are entitled to
present their arguments but
the decision is . up to the
Family court Judge.
Too often the CAS is seen
Historical Society
meet at
cobblestone house
The executive members of
the Bruce County Historical
Society met at the home of
the president and .his• wife,
Mr. and Mrs. William A.
Collins, on the Shore Road
south of Kincardine on Tues-
day, July 10 for supper. The
wives and husbands were
invited and 25 gathered for a
pot luck smorgasbord supper
of delicious home-made fav-
ourite dishes. Members were
present from Southampton,
Tara, Chesley, Port Elgin,
Tiverton, Kincardine, Walk-
erton, Teeswater and Luck -
now.
The style of architecture of
the Collins home is worth
noting as it is a "cobble-
stone" house, built by a Tout
family, former owners. Two
more houses of the same
style are in the hnmediate
area": This style of architec-
ture is unusual in Bruce.
After t supper the group
:drove to.nearby Lurgan and
held an executive meeting at
"Peebles", the summer
home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E.
Wildfong of Preston. Their
home is the former S. S. No.
1, Huron Township school.
They , have transformed the
school into a cosy home
without actually changing
the school in any degree.
Interesting relics of its
schooldays, such as black-
boards, a ^few old school
desks and the teacher's bell,
have been preserved. The
schoolyardia nay -a -Well -kept
lawn surrounded by a rail
fence and a thick grove of
.lovely old trees. The school
and its surroundings is a fine
example of how old buildings
can be preserved and at the
'same time be of use.

John Reynolds Jr. of Port
Elgin gave a report on his
progress, as Historic Mark-
ers chairman, with the
plaque to be erected on the
Dahmer farm at Millarton on
the Durham Road. In the
1866 Fenian Raid scare,
Major William Daniels resid-
• ed on this farm, and trained
local farmers as soldiers_in
the front] field beside the
•road. The small, garage -siz-
ed building is still standing
where these men kept their
uniforms and guns. John has
prepared an informative bro-
chure with six pictures to
illustrate it, to distribute •to
people who are concerned
with preserving Bruce Coun-
ty's historic" sites and build-
ings. Donations are being
sought to help finance the
erection. of this plaque.
The summer bus trip is
scheduled for Thursday, July
19 with a visit to the new
Agricultural Museum at Mil-
ton and the Halton_ County.*,,
Museum. Each person is
asked to bring his or her own
box lunch for the noon meal,
and supper will be eaten at a
restaurant. If you are inter-
ested in coming on this trip
to see how the former CKNX,
Wingham, .farm broadcaster,
Bob Carbert, has organized
this agricultural museum,
please contact your local
society representative.

When you go visiting friends
and relatives on your holi-
days
as having the purpose of
removing children from their
homes. Actually the workers
try to keep families intact
and resolve the . difficulties
leading up to the problem.
All Childresn Aids have
emergency services 24 hours
.a day, seven days a week.
They rely on consistant co-
operation, support and lead-
ership of professionals and
the community in general.
With time being a problem
they have came to count on
the support of many ,volun-
teers to assist in the care of
the childen in wardship. The
CAS is caring for many
children within your own
community. They are helping
rebuild broken homes so that
the children don't suffer. In
some cases they seem like
the villain but is most cases
they're just the childrens
legal friend.
