FORMER PRINCIPAL AT
OAK. GROVE HONORED.

East Fassalboro, Me. June H.
The following clipping from the Co.
lumbia Citizen of Columbus, Ohio. of
recent date will be of interest to
many folks of this locality who
pleasantly remember DR.. Henry H.
| Goddard, at one time principal of
Oak Grove Seminary. He has many
friends in this section who will be
glad to hear of his services.
Meet the highest paid employe of
the State of Ohio-Dr. Henry H.
Goddard. His salary is $500. Only
the governor draws more pay from
the treasury. and he is an elected
official.
DR.. Goddards job is to make Ohio
the world leader in child conserva-
ton and in the scientific upbuildlng
Of citizenship.
He has just taken charge of the
Bureau of Juvenile Research at the
State Board of Administration.
The idea is to study the causes Of
juvenile delinquency and check them
at the root rather than to punish
their effects. Ohio is the first state
to appropriate money to experiment
with this idea.
Because this is pioneer work, the
state got DR.. Goddard as the greatest
expert in that line in the country.
He established that reputation at an
institution in Vineand. n. ]. He has
written several textbooks on juvenile
crime.
Although the Ohio Bureau Of
Juvenile Research came into being in
July, 1914. it has never fully func-
toned. The last legislature appro-
priated 100000 for the erection of a
laborator and dormitories on the
Columbia State Hospital grounds.
1t is expected these buildings will be
erected by Jan. /.
Juvenile courts will stop sending
bad boys to Lancaster and bad girls
to Delaware. All such cases will be
| "committed' to the State Board of
Administration and sent to the Re-
search Bureau here.
! The feeble minded will he separ
ated and committed TO other insti-
buttons, and those of normal mental
ity studied for the causes of their
delinquency.
1t is no longer believed that a
certain number of normal children
are bound to be bad. It is held that
most cases of delinquency are from
environments. associates. physical
ailments or some cause which can
! be studied and corrected
