 Every employer should endeavor to intensity the output in his plant Iby a careful attention to these great hazards He not only needs a work place in which each physical hazard of the environment is standardized, but one in which the principal physical and mental defects in his workers are

 Judge J. Winner Latimer, of the
 Juvenile Court of the District of Co.,
 umbia, explained the recent tendency of Juvenile Courts to dovetail more closely into the work of public schools. He also advised more modern or ganization of the Juvenile Court so that criminal procedure would be en- tirely dispensed with and cases would be handled in chancery exactly as the cases of dependency.
 Punishment of child" said Judge
 Latimer, should never be inflicted except for the purpose of correction, and experience has demonstrated to every parent that it is not always the
 most effective means of accomplishing that result.

 hat the juvenile court should have
 he power to deal with a certain class
 0f adults namely, those whose conduct
 may prejudicially affect the welfare
 of the child"

 OrthOepedic apparatus. One of the . most interesting experiments which the Childrens Aid Society, in CO operation with a Womans organiza- ion is trying, is that of a vocational
 school for cripples. Over 100 crippled ; children are brought to our Rhineland-
 9r school in busses. The younger boys and girls have grade work The older ones who have gone through the grades and have had preparatory | vocational work, are in the trade
 classes. The boys have a three year course in jewelry making and the girls in embroidery"
