They have infancy, childhood, youth and man- hood. It is frbtn the neglected, and ',dependent children that .the ranks of professional crimluals .are recruited, "!'hese little ones raised in homes of rieipus, immoral eovirotmient,. 1'ar- ental or otherwise, had not the op- portunities' in these hovels, which were coaled homes, to learn to be respectable citizens. • The question DOW confronts us, what is to bo done ? and to niy ;mind the answer is this We have in our Province the Child- retn's Aid, Society under the very able inskagetheat of Mr, J. J. Kelso, who 'is Stlperintolident of this great or- ganization with branches' in every County in our Province, and who has -demonstrated by his untiring charts that he is the right man in the 'right place, • and the contant aainr of thin organization is to Prevent crime 'rather than correct the criminals. Mr. Kelso is very ably assisted In this great work in Ii1(ou, County by Mr. G. M, Elliott whois the officer. in charge of the work of reclaiming and re-establishing these children in their proper places in the ' commun- ity. These organizations a are the most important factors in the social 'life of the communiy. The system under which these so- cieties are working is not inhuman :as was at first thought by man(-, 'but is on the contrary both humane .and scientific, as will be shown by the results of the efforts of the or- ganizations in assisting many par- %•ents to rise with their children from -a careless, dissolute and filthy condi- tion to a place in the community 'where they are respected and their little family kept intact. The homes 'will ;,regenerate the world and it is ;therefore necessary that we. multiply the right kind of homes, heep them intact-, and in so far as possible see 'to * bhat those in them have the proper environment. The real strength --of our soldiers at the front is the . strength of the' homes for which they are fighting. This work is a pleasant one to all 'whose hearts. are in true sympathy 'with the welfare of the little ones.' A. word regarding the manner 10 which the juvenile delinquents aro =dealt with in our County would, I believe, be in order, so it can be - • seen that we 'have not the proper .method of, dealing with the misdirec- ted or 'misguided child, who perhaps has committed his first wrong act "petty theft" and who needs protec- tion roteation and guidance rather than pun- ishment and humiliation. In these rases alio following procedure is tak- en'. An information or complaint is laid against the child for the , of- fence by_a constable. The child is • :summoned to appear for trial: His parents are notified ahc, they attend -court with thechild, who is con- ironted • again by the policeman in uniform. A plea is taken and ovi.- dence heard as in criminal cases, in the presence of the accused child. The child perhaps convicted and sen- tence suspended, and that little child goes from the Police Court, in which .are tried the most hardened crimin- als, , with a suspended sentence upon him, which very often in the . home he ja reminded of, in order to bring ,Gine-child into subjection, or perhaps the threat is used that the 'police- man will again be called. This sys- tain a dealing with tht delinquent -child should be abolished in our County as it is in many otlier coun- ties and most cities. A Juvenile •Court should be established. There •should be no taint of a criminal 'court in the proceedings. This child should be regarded as a ward of the Province,. to be cared for and guided -by it, and not as an enemp to be Marriages "MITCHELL-FORBES-1n Clinton, on ,January 10th, by Rev, Dr. Rutledge, Mary Elizabeth, young- est daughterof iVirs.

The remedy, if mix, 4auld thou, by 'the provisions o1 the Statutes, be easi1p,arrived at by the Juvenile ;Court Judge. It is therefore very essential" that the Juvenile Courts Act beIproclaim- ed 111 our County, as; has been dis- cussed at tete meotiugs or the iiuront County Children's Aid Society, to facilitate the carrying on of this great work in, our County, and it should be a matter of great concern to every church organization and ev- ery society in our County that their support be "given the Children's Aid Society in this great work. We have in our Province homes far the aged and institutions for the feeble-mind- ed and incurables., which are crowd- ed to overflowing. !How essential it is that we should, make every effort to protect and care for the young life, and it can be done, all that is outlined above 11 possible if the right maxi .is appointed to administer the law in this C'ounty, o1le whose Miele heart is in the work and whose thought would be- devoted to the practical help and encouragement of the children and the strongthiming of those social influences that would stake their pathway easier.
