SPEAKS ON JUVENILE
DELINQUENCY AT WINDSOR
The following from the Border Cite
iea Star refers to an address given
at Windsor by Mr. R, G. Keyes, son;.
of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Keyes, of
Egmondville.
Placing the responsibility for pre-
sent clay increase in juvenile delinqu-;
envy squarely at the door of the
house, Mr. R. G. Keyes of the Child-
ren's Aid Society, Dr John Howie, l
medical officer of health, and the
Rev H, T. Bridwell, of Giles Boule-
vard Christian Church, addressed the
Border Council of Home and School
Associations, at its regular meeting
M the Dougall Avenue Sohool,
Mr. Keyes, who was the first
speaker, maintained that lack of se- �
curity, lack of discipline, and lack of
something to do, are large factors in
the increase of child clelinqueucy, He
urged the development of organized
sports and other social gatherings to
combat growing trouble with the
youth.
Mr. Keyes explained the set-up of
the Children's Aid which employs
trained workers to investigate corn -
Plaints. "We try to build up home
surroundings, to adjust the child to
his family. In fact the largest part of
our work is trying to keep homes to-
gether by finding out why the child
isn't well adjusted to lhonle or school.
The field worker. if it is necessary,
takes the child out of his home and
puts himintoa foster home,"
Mr. Keyes again stressed the un-
fortunate results of lack of discipline
in the home, and decried the tact that
Sunday School attendance has fallen
off nue-half in the past four years,

truck owner ha,: entered action for
damages, and it is proposed to enter
