SENDS YOUNG SUSPECT
TO FRIENDLESS HOME

This boy is over sixteen and he
will have to be confined in the county
Jail, pending his hearing in juvenile
court, according to the law" said
Chief Goodwin today, when police
officer asked whether the lad, charged
with having received stolen money,
should be taken to county pail or to
the Home of the Friendless.
So far as l know he is not yet
sixteen; take him to the Home" ruled
Prosecutor, Keller. The county Jail
is no place for young boy. It's a
fine law which expects lads between
sixteen and twenty to be herded in
with lot of toughs."
The boy was then taken to the
Home.
