He was beyond the reform school in sise so. that he was practically a young man. Parents and friends were willing to make restitution. But Judge Bois said “no. restitution will do the boy m 800d". Judge Bois said that this boy must be put to work to earn the money and pay it hack himself. The resillt was that the Juvenile Court Committee found a man who was willing to em ' , idle delinquent. The latter was obliged toloweeklyandpayhisformer‘ employer a certain amount on sc- coiultu-tihis continuing till the whole mom-it of the stolen money was restored. This treatment did Mr the boy what a xii-payment by willing parents could not accom- plish. I think that the procedure of the Juvenile Court itself is dedgned to have a salutary effect upon both child and parent.

After the investigation is over a. frank and open discussion takes place between the parents and the committee as to what had best be done with the child. Thus the parties find themselves, not before a judge alone, who pronounces the sentence of guilty or otherwise, ac- i'___, to the evidence, but on the

y, among friends and towns- people who are willing and anxious to advise and assist both the delin- quent and its parent-s. And in this “ there must not be over- looked the part played by the WW1- iter of the Children's Aid Bodety. who without remuneration gives so much cf his valuable time in assist- ing in juvenile reform, and in con- ducting cases in the Juvenile Court-

Tile most common offense is petty theft. If the child is of tender years, or attending school it is usual to require the parent to make restit- ution. This gives the child treat- ment through the parent. Iew things tend more to stimulate the activity of the parent in record t» parental control than the ravine u! money to make reparation to the party injured by the childs delin- quency.

whether or not they followed the ad- vice given to them at the former trial. It sometimes happens that parents admit that they have lost control of their children. And that the latter are unaffected by either chastisement or admonition. In the case of second offences it is usual to let them go on a suspended sen- tence, in order to give the parents another chance to make good. If no further delinquency occurs no sen- tence is over passed. However, if they are again brought into court and a third offence is proved. about the only thing that can be done is to send them to a reformatory.

Our experience is, that these that have had a term at the reforlrlatory "make good" after their return.

Exceptional Cases

Up to the moment i‘. have been dealing with ordinary cases; but there are exceptional cases that re- quire more drastic treatment. Some- times there is brought into court a boy who has no court record, but who is shown te have a bad record otherwise and is the ringleader in

this boy is not disposed of at once he may spoil a dozen others of his own age.

Itis welltosendthistypc tethc reform school at once, both in the interest of himself and that of the community.

In the final analysis, the burden of the reform work of the court falls upon the shoulders of the Childrenh Aid Society, and the Juvenile Court Committee. It is they who visit the homes of the destitute, it is they who take counsel with the parents of delinquents, it is they who advise the court, it is they who seek and provide the foster homes.

Tile ordinary court can function unaided save by the assistance of counsel. Not so with the Juvenile Court. Its right arm is the Child- ren's Aid Society, its left arm .5 the Juvenile court committee.

The enforcing of the Juvenile De- linquents Act can only be eflectivciy

niplished if the moral support of the community is behind it. That moral support has as its mouthpiece and outlet the auxiliary agencies I have mentioned.‘ The parents delinquent children are beset with difficulties of which the public. krlcws but little; however they can' have no better stimulus than the- assistance of the militant and prll-i
