ARKANSAS FAILS IN DUTY ID ITS
 MAYNARD GIRLS
Delinquents Must Be Taken to Other States to Receive
 Proper Attention.
The next legislature will be asked

The next legislature will be aske, to re-enact the law passed by the gen. eral assembly of 1915 for the estab- lishment of girls industrial school in Arkansas. The institution was lost in the great veto, but those who have been interested in the proposed school refuse to become discouraged. Dr. Brough and Secretary Hodges are both pledged to the proposition showing the popularity of the plan, and it is believed that pressure will be brought to bear upon the law-mak- CTS that will be irresistible. The peo- pie throughout the state who are ill favor of the school are urged to con- fer with their legislators and get them committed to it.
 Che of the principal workers for the school is Miss Julia Houston of Pine Bluff, chief probation officer of lief ferson county. who recently visited the state industrial home for girls at Chillicothe, Mo. She took a ward of the Jefferson court to that school, and says:
 ''I'm ashamed to have to confess out loud that the state of Arkansas provides no place at all for one Of it's wayward girls, and that we have to 20 to Missouri, Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, or some other state to find the restraint and protection they rlced.Y
 Miss Houston found in the Chilli cothe home 220 immoral, incorrigible or otherwise deliquent girls under Is years of age, most of them under 16, many of them from the underworld of st. Louis and Kansas City. They are living in cottages, under the most salutary influences, with healthful employment, and Sunday school. and music, and art and home life. She was told by the supervisor that drunk enncss, debauchery, the death of one or both parents, pauperism. crime. abuse, and illiteracy are the condi- tions that force four-f1fths of the ln- mates into the institution.
 Miss Houston also visited the boys hotel in Kansas City, the Kansas City Juvenile court the McCune industrial farm, and the Bonneville State Indus trial school.
 .They've got lot to show us up there in Missouri and they are just lys proud of what they have" said Miss Houston.
