Sixty-nine little boys and girls in
this country have died of lockjaw
since July Fourth as the result of
powder burned wounds, caused by
toy pistols. Since June 1, 2SS people
have been drowned. These figures are
appalling. because they represent
human heedlessness. Men, women
and children risk their lives as they
risk their clothing and their prop
erty, as If their lives could be re-
placed, once lost. If we could add to
these figures the SUM total of babies
killed by impure milk, of lives sacri-
feed to abnormal craving for cold
drinks on hot meals, and the con-
sumption Of decayed fruit and vege-
tables, we should have a fair con-
ception Of the waste of human life in
the silly season.

What might add to the success of
the probation method of dealing with
juvenile offenders, would be giving
them hearings In the afternoon IN
the city court room, instead of In
the morning, when the other offend
ers are tried. This would afford
Judge Cross opportunity to look
carefully into each case to determine
where the fault lay, and apply the
proper remedy to correct the fault.
Procedure of the juvenile court
might also be adopted with profit In
these institutions rules of evidence
are discarded and the judge and pris-
oner get right down to a "heart to
heart" understanding. Any kind of
evidence that throws light on the
condition, environment and training
Of the child is competent and mate
rial in a Juvenile court. The proceed
ings are informal, and it is safe to
say, that half the little children, who
appear, never realize they have been
in court, at all. The judge simply
personihes the beneficent power of
society; the friend of the unfortu-
nate, not his executioner.
