and again emphasized by those who have to use the building and the time seems opportune for some relief, to enable New Britain to take her place with other progressive cities in providing suitable and adequate means for the conduct of city, police and juvenile court business, including a proper detention building for the care of women, girls and boys who r. ay have to be detained for any req 'son before being brought to trial.
 "In reviewing my work as proba- tion officer during the past six years, I am more than ever convinced that the vital thing in all probation work is the personal relationship estab lished between the officer and his charge. The heart, the will and the 1 mind, once reached, are more bind | ing than bolts and bars. A human soul is a wonderful field, which to ! cultivate takes patience, time and
 an everlasting faith in humankind | This is what counts in the long run | and the work, though largely routine ! and to some extent monotonous by reason of the steady application de
 manded, affords many opportunities
 for kindness and service and is rich
 in possibilities for making changes | for the better in the lives of men
 women, and children coming to the | officers attention.
 "As in past years, I am indebted te
 all those who by their cooperation helped in the work-to the court fol | the kindness and interest manifested | and to the prosecutor and police de partment in general for courtesie!
 and aid extended during the year.
 Respectfully submitted,
 EDWARD c. CONNOLLY, | Probation Officer

EMBARGO ON LIQUOR
 Is NOW REMOVED

Word was received recently in Dawson that the embargo placed upon Canadian liquors coming in bond through Alaska has been removed Dr. Alfred Thompson. NIP, secured the removal of the embargo by wir- ing 10 the British ambassador at Washington direct. As soon as Dr. Thompson placed the facts before the am bassador action was not long de layed On being interviewed by the Dawson News representative. pr. Thompson said:
 "The Canadian federal govern
 nlent took the plebiscite on July l to ascertain the will Of the Yukon people on this question. The result of the vote was large majority for importation. Shortly after the pleb- iscite was held word was received that the United States government had placed an embargo on liquor corning to Yukon through Alaska in bond. I refused to believe that the United States government would commit any discourteous treatment of Canada if the facts were placed before the proper authorities and in the right light. The United States government has perfect right to prevent goods of any kind crossing the United States from Ca nada to Mexico or any other country if jt so desires. but to arrogate to it
 self the right to tell any section of the Canadian people what they shall or shall not import for their own use and from their own country to one of their own territories is going far beyond the bounds of what is to be expected between friendly nations.
 In the telegram to the British am- ba dor l told him of the embargo. aIsottbat the Skagway route is the only practical route into the Yukon. and that that route extends for some twenty miles through Alaska from Skagway and asked him to interview the United States government and have it revoke the embargo and thus

reported. Williams had said that he
had turned the money into the
general fund.
Now l ask you ladies and gentle
men, continued Stewart, what right
had he to do with money that had
been donated? He demonstrated fine
business ability then, an evidence that
he is well fitted for the superintendent
cy." concluded Stewart, sardonically
with the final statement that he would
not trust Mr.. Williams with a dollar
of my money"
Deprecating unfounded criticism o!
public oficials, Stewart further pointed
out that trustees had been pledged to
Mr.. Williams, according to reports, and
said: Il would like to ask for how
long Mr.. Williams has these men
pledged? When this life is over, just
wonder if he has them pledged to him
on the other side?"

the women having formed township

tention Of hiring a home demonstra

funds were available, they had ap
pealed to the school superintendent
for assistance from federal moneys
through the school system, whereupor
Mr.. Williams offered services OF his
Office, provided activities and work OF
the home demonstration agent were
entirely under his control. "a thing
that we did not want" concluded Mrs

qualifications and policies, Hines
briefly outlined his position. "A good
school system is one which turns out
good citizens" TOO low a percentage
of our grade school graduates are go
ing into high schools" Ninety per
cent. of the criminals are men who
have not graduated from the eighth
grade, while very few high school
graduates are criminal" I'VE must
advocate and practice the elements of
religion in the schools if we are to
educate to better citizenship" were
characteristic utterances.
Mr.. Hines also quoted state reports
of the department of public instruc-
ton and pointed to comparative stand
ings of the Indiana counties as indica-
ton that Wayne needs better school
system.
Webster Man Speaks.
After Hines speech, L. c. Palmer of
Webster, spoke, telling of the hard
time the patrons of the Webster
school had had in trying to improve
the school there, and welcoming Hines

ing a previous announcement that the

had been retained to investigate the
charges against Mr.. Williams. 'In
case those charges that have been pre-
scented to me are true" said Mr..
Keller, "the facts certainly will dis
