DESERTED BY PARENTS.

''It will be noticed that SO per cent.
of the total number he goes on to say,
'were deserted by one or both parents.
A careful search has been made for the
parents, and in a number of eases we
have forced the parent to support the
child. According to our Investigations
the large majority of the deserving par
ents were able bodied. If the foundIings
are classed as deserted children, the
number would be swelled to lis or over
43 per cent. of the whole.
DEFECTIVE CHILDREN.
.The care of defective children is a
great problem for this Board. The vari-
ous State institutions for detectives al
ways have waiting list, and while they
have been extremely considerate. they
are of course limited according to the
funds at their disposal, and their facii-
ties. We have at the present time eight
applications on file for the admission of
detectives to various institutions, and
there are other children in our care who
also need special training. The training
and segregation of detectives is mat
ter of public concern. To allow feeble
minded girls and boys to be at large is
menace to the community.
"Our attention is constantly being
brought to illegitimate children born to
feeble minded women, some of whom
have given birth to several children. Only
recently in one of our almshouses fee
BILE minded inmate gave birth to her fifth
illegitimate child. The mother has been
an inmate of the institution since she
was II years old We have on our rec
ords one family whose history is fairly
startling. Both parents were detectives.
They had three girls and boy. The
oldest girl, who is not yet 21, has had twp
Legitimate children, one of whom W4s
colored and an epileptic.
'sThe second sister has had one ille-
gitimate child These two sisters have
been sent by us to the State Village for
Epileptics. The third sister was sent to
the State Institution for Predetermined
Women. and transferred from there TO
the State Village for Epileptics. The
boy was sent to the New Jersey Train-
ing School for Feeble-Minded Boys and

FORESTERS STIRRED UP
Intention of the courain
Family to Sue the Order
Provokes Discussion.

The decision of the relatives of the late
John Courain, a prominent Forester, VINO
lived at No. Z, Greenville avenue, and
who died last month, to sue Court Ham
ilton. No. %, Foresters of America for
sick dues alleged to be due and a doctors
bill. is the sole topic Of discussion among
Foresters. If the matter is taken TO the
Court as the relatives of Mr. Courain say
they mean to do, it will doubtless settle
a matter that the members of the order
have long been looking for. 1t is, has a
lodge the power to reduce the sick ben
efts
For years this has been the bone, Of
contention and at last the members will
know where they stand. The bylaws of
the majority of lodges say, that the sick
benefits Shall be such compensation as
the members shall determine. In Mr..
Courain's case, the benefits were Sc, a
week when he took sick. The lodge
claims that owing to its. poor financial
condition due to the payments of several
death claims, the lodge was compelled to
a notification was sent to all the MEM
bers. The Courains claim that Mr.. Cour-
ain was i'll for nine weeks, and that he
should have received $54, instead he got
but 81, also that the lodge physician, DR..
Peter Hoffman called but once during
that period, causing the family to go to
the expense of hiring DR.. C. Limeburner.
1t is for the doctors bill and the balance
of the $54, that the suit will be begun.
Courain's relations contend that the
lodge had no right to reduce the sick ben
eft and that the patient should have re-
ceived medical treatment free during his
Illness
The lodge will fight the case. A prom
inent State officer in discussing the stat
us of the case said that the lodges We're
run according to their bylaws.
sAll lodges do not have the same by
laws said he Il believe that the BY
laws of Court Hamilton state that the
sick benefit may be fixed from time to
time by the members. At any rate it was
changed and reduced from SO to 81
week / also know that this court is in
a bad way financially and that the mem
bers have taken very little interest in the
work. This should not be and the MEM
bers are bound to fulfill certain duties.
'sThere is also rule that if the sick
members live four miles from the quar-
ters of the lodge, neither the
doctor nor the members are
obliged to call upon him. II is claim
ed An this case that Mr.. Courain lived
outside of the four mile limit This, if
SO favors the lodge. In that case the doc
tor was not obliged to go to the patient
and the Couraine people cannot recover
for the doctors bill they paid.
Il also know that none of the members
attended the funeral of Mr.. Couraine
This, might say, was very discourteous
to the family. Members of other lodges
had to represent the order. I hope the
matter will be settled without a lawsuit. y
