Brain Test Saves
San Francisco Boy
From Prison Term

San Francisco, March 1O.-Should
an adult delinquent with the mentality
of a child be sent to the penitent1ary
or be cared for by society as person
of feeble mind?
This is the question which Superior
Court Judge Frank H. Dunno decided
when he ordered Joseph Duran 10
years old, to the Preston School OF
Industry at lone instead of to San
Quentin penitentiary.
The case grew out of a movement
to Introduce in the local courts the
Binet-Simon test to determine the
mental status Of alleged detectives
The outcome will be watched with
keen interest by Judges. psycholo-
gists and sponsors of the movement,
which has for its aim the welfare of
the feeble minded.
In the case of young Duran, who
has been guilty of offences since child
hood, the application of the Binet
test showed that he had the mind of
a boy of IL years. 1t was upon the
report of examining psychologists that
Judge Dunno suspended sentence OF
three years, which he had pronounced
against Duran, and ordered him sent
to the Preston School for a similar
period.
Court Probation Officer J. c. Astre-
do, one of the leaders in the move
ment to bring about a scheme of diff
ferentiation between the feeble mind
ed and the criminal, will cooperate
with Calvin Derrick, superintendent of
the school at lone, in reporting on the
results obtained in the case of the de-
linquent youth.
The Binet-Simon test. named after
the distinguished French psychologist
who originated it, has been used at the
Juvenile Detention Home for some
time, but this is the first attempt to
introduce it in the courts in connec-
ton with adults. Heretofore the
locally has been confined
to children.
The system deals with the habits
and memory of the subject. Blocks,
letters and figures are used in gaug1ng
mental response according to scale
formulated to apply to a. certain age
s'I do not think it is right to put up
to a Judge the responsibility of de-
Gliding for or against probation with
out giving him all the information
that may be scientifically secured
said Probation Officer Astredo. ST
hope we will be able to show that
many of those who get into the courts
are sick in mind. There is a great
difference between the feeble minded
and the insane. While the insane
may be cured, the feeble minded must
be cared for in most cases for the re-
mainder of their 1ives.''
Young Duran committed his first
offence four years ago, when he was
sent to a reformatory for theft. Sep
TENDER IA he was paro1ed through
the efforts of Mrs. Helen LIE F'urgey
and was restored to his free status in
June, 1915. While employed at the
house of his benefactor Duran COM
rnitted a number of thefts and was
arrested on the complaint of Mrs. LIE
Furgey.

Two days went by, but there was

of duplicity. She went off for walk

absence Of at least two hours the girl
went up to her room without SO much

flushed and she carried her head dis

The puzzle was soon explained. He

came down alone to dinner.

TALK ON CIVIC ART
Mrs. George III. Whitcomb Addresses
the Topeka Guild.

Mrs. George H Whitcomb talked on
improvement in civic art before the
Topeka Art Guild Saturday night.
Her address tho short, contained
many pertinent suggestions as to how
the guild might be made a power in
improving the appearance of Topeka
In Europe said the speaker, I'VE
find the narrow and crooked streets
in the older parts of the towns while
the newer portions show an enormous
Improvement in this respect, indicat-
ing a steady growth of the CO.
operative spirit for the common good,
over selfish individualism- But here
in Topeka We FIND retrogression along
this line instead of advance
The founders of the town laid it
out with large blocks, and streets that
are wide, straight, and handsome, but
many later additions to the town have
been plated almost entirely with the
idea of getting the greatest number Of
lots out of the land, and thereby
bringing the largest money return 70
the owner. In some of the newer parts
CT town the streets are narrow and do
not coincide with those il the original
city, and the suburbs are fill of sharp,
narrow turns which are dangerous,
confusing, and unsightly"
1t was suggested that the guild
might dc something to influence re-
form during the future growth of the
city
Another thing that was deplored
was the marred appearance of the p
proach to Capitol square along certain
streets. by a network of light and
telephone wires, and by the black
smoke that energies from he stacks
of certain nearby institutions.
1t was also suggested that much
good might be done in imI rowing the
domestic architecture of Topeka by
inviting the city's architects to be-
come members of the guild, and then
organizing a committee to draft plans,
designs, and standards to be followed
IN building small dwellings and urg-
ing upon the city government the i'm
portance of legislation along this line
