No easy task confronis the admin

There is, of course, no need for

lf the administration were TO do this

OPPOSE MERGER

Friends of Juvenile Tribunal
Want Ii To Continue a
Separate Body
ASK LAWMAKERS
TO BALK PLAN

A protest against the bill, which il
passed by the Legislature would incor-
poratc the Juvenile with the Municipal
Court. is voiced IN a communication
which is to be sent to members of the
Legislature by the Wilmington Juvcnil,
Court and Probation Association.
The letter. in part, follows:
"rhere has been presented to the
Senate a bill designed to make the
Juvenile Court of the City OF Will
mington a branch of the Municipal
Court This bill, we believe to be a
grave mistake and fails to recognize
tie fundamental principles upon
which the Juvenile Court is based,
for the following reasons:
"A Juvenile Court is not a court of
punishment. but a parental court,
having for its work the protection oi
the child and the correction of con-
ditions which lead to child delin-
quency and the training of the char
aCter OF the child, but fatherly tender
ness and guidance on the part of the
judge and probation officers of de-
Neloping the child's character and
teaching him the difference between
right and wrong. The court is con-
structed therefore. not for the pur-
pose of furnishing the child for the
Cffense committed. but for the pur-
pose of having the child under the
guidance Of tho Court until he Is 20
trained that there will be no rc-oc-
/ currenco of the wrong-doing.
! Experience has shown that il is
wrong in theory and practice to have
/ a Juvenile Court. whose purpose Of
protection and care arc as above stat
ed, connected with the criminal court
which is a court of punishment: ami
for the further reason that for "a per-
son to be brought into a criminal
court is a disgrace and injury TO the
] child's pride of character. IL is the
cndeavor of the Juvenile Court TO
eliminate the idea of disgrace as far
as possible so that the child, although
he has been a wrong-doer, may NOT
feel that black mark has been placed
against his life for having been
brought into court If he is brought
into a criminal court. this is a stain
which forever stands against MIN. 4

minisiration said would result from
a year of the European war.
1t was argued that the deficit for

for the war taxes. The war taxes

of the January meeting of the Round

In speaking of the predecessors of
Shakespeare, Mrs. Wentz stated that
they had a great influence over the
work OF that writer but added that
now that we have him we can very
easily do without the others. Miss
Mather. who conducted the meeting,
spoke informally on the revision of
our personal timetables" in which
she brought out the thought that we
should adjust our timetables so
THAT we can digest more thoroughly
some of the oleyating and inspiring
things heard. This rushing around
breathless from one engagement ia
another was bad for ones mental and
artistic development. said Miss Matli-

was one OF the best methods Of de-
veloping ourselves.
