Whole 'i cuild i ndrr Irt years old Is

within the meaning of the act, the
court may commit it to the care of
tome leputable e Itlen or to tho caro
of some Industtial or tiaitiing school,

In the case of a "delinquent" child

court may continue the beating and
commit It to the care and guardian
ship of a "probation ofllcer," appoint
ed by court, who may allow It to ic
maln at home subject to his visitation
and Inspection, or who may (dace It In
a suitable family home, subject "to
the friendly supervision of such pio

The rati it may nlso, In Its dlseietlnn,
commit the child to a suitable Institu

Judge Fdwards In receipt of n let
ter fiom Mis. Frcdeilc Schoff, presi
dent of tho Pennsjlvonln Congress of
Motheis, tn slug the establishment of
the couit nnd enclosing a letter from
Judge Tttthlll, of Chicago, explaining nt
length the operation of the Juvenile
court In that city
With leference to the probation of-
tiieis, Judge Tttthlll said'
"Piobatlon oillccts should toko nn
oath to support the constitution of
the Fnlted States nnd tho state and
to dlschoigp their duties of ofllcefalth
fully and honestly. He wears no
badge nt all, but when a boy or girl
Is placed under piobatlonary care, a
cud Is tilled out nml given to the
child to tnke to his home to remind him
of his duties, and tho time nnd place
to make his report, the probation offi
cer ilxlng the time and place nnd the
only lestrlctlon upon place Is that It
shall not be a police station.
"These general requirements of the
probation oillcer, I find the most sug
gestive, that Is, the probation olflcer
should have a leal regard, even love,
for the child, such n feeling ns n good
patent should have for his or her own
child, nnd then, la nil respects, they
should endenvor to net wlselj' In giv
ing the ehibi this piopcr pntental care
that Is needed to keep him In tho
light way. Th exeiclso of good com
mon sense In this matter Is a most
helpful and vnluabe trait. Fach pio
batlon ntlller who exercises good com
mon sense will adapt his methods to
each Individual child, nnd If ono
method falls, try another. Of coutse.
a ptobatlon ofllcer should not endea
vor to ptciselyte or In nny way inter
feie with tho lellglous belief of the
child's family, for this would at once
arouse antngoiitsm that would render
the woik xaluclcss.
MF.KT1NG OF OFFICFUS.
"I have had meetings nf the prnba
tlon olllceis held from time to time and
in coming together they would discuss
and tell of their work and the various
methods which thej had adopted, giv
ing limtanccs, and In this way would
hear what each other had to saj and
from their dlffeiciu expeilences derive
valuable lessons lor their own conduct.
"Another thing, a probation ofllcer
should be optimistic, nlwajs, and hope
ful and one, two, thteo or '.seven' fall
in e should not dlscouiage the oillcer,
but should petslst In the woik for this
poor child, that had been entrusted to
caro, n If the child weie the ofllcer's
own. No ono can tell nt what time In
a child's life tho work done In giving
him moial direction and the disposi
tion to do right, will bring forth fiult.
"The Juvenile couit Is verj Infoimal
In its nature. I usually talk to the
child that Is hi ought before mo tho
tli.st time In a rather fathetly and con
liileutlnl way and ask him to tell me
nil about what the witnesses ate theie
to testify about. 1 tell him that he
know.H all about It much better than
the witnesses do nnd that I want him
to tell me, and ho usually does, 1 try
to get the evmfldoiioc of the child and 1
spend a gicat deal of time In talking
to him.
TALKS TO THF, CHILD.
"I tell him nbout the probailon ofll
ceis and what tho probation oillcer will
do for liltn; that sho will be a fiienel
of him unci bis mother's friend; that
sho will como to see them, and also
Impicss upon the patents that they
must tieat the probation ollher with
courtesy, and by so doing will show
lespect to the couit thit thej- are
friends that will be of value, and I say
to the child, that 'If you don t do as
tho probation officer tells ou, and
about jour condui t In the f tit me, that
joti will be biought back to mo and I
will have to put you away; put you
away fiom jour father nnd mother,
wheio you will bo compelled to obey.'
"I dwell much on the necessltj of the
lesson of e-ompllclt obedience, and In
homely phrn.se tiy to Impress upon the
child tho law. That each child must
obey tho law as well as older persons,
that tho child must obey tho law of his
patents nnd teachcis."
