Given Custody Of Her Child.
Mrs. Pearl Peterson Of Glenburn
will be allowed to keep her little child
Virginia, under an order issued by
Judge K. e. Leighton in juvenile
court. An effort was made by Mrs. M.
Thayer of Glenburn to have the child
taken away from Mrs.. Peterson, but
the latter succeeded in proving to the
satisfaction Of the court that she was
perfectly competent to care for the
child and had been giving it proper
are.
A petition signed by practically
every business man and other promi-
nent residents of Glenburn in behalf
OF Mrs. Peterson was presented to
Judge Leighton and evidence was in
troduced to show that there was
nothing to the charges made by Mrs.
Thayer. Colonel Alex Scarlet,
juvenile court officer. had filed an ad-
verse report to Judge Leighton, but
there was no evidence introduced to
further s~ubstantiate the statements
contained in the report. Several wit
nesses testified concerning the good
character OF the mother.
