JUVENILE COURT
WORK DESCRIBED
Judge Waxter Urges Handling
as Case-Working Agency
in Community.

The Juvenile Court should be handled
as a case-working agency in the COM
munity rather than a court concerned
only with offenses committed against
society, Judge c. j. s. Waxter of the
Juvenile Court of Baltimore declared
yesterday at a meeting of the Council
Of Social Agencies in the Y. w. c. A.,
Seventeenth and K streets.
Speaking on "A Modern Juvenile Court
in Action" Judge Waxter said the func-
tions Of the Juvenile Court should be
to study and plan for the individual
child: to act as sounding board for in
teresting the public in child welfare by
focusing attention of the public on this
work. 1t should also lay stress on the
individual rather than the crime
Edgar M. Gerlach, assistant super
visor of the United States Probation
System of the Department Of Justice,
another speaker. pictured the Juvenile
Court Of tomorrow as a child welfare
agency, equipped with board of direc-
tors composed of interested people who
would work for the child.
He said it has been realized that the
Criminal Court is not the ideal method
of handling child cases. 1t has been
recognized. he said, that it Is easier to
reform a criminal in youth than later
in life, but the Juvenile Court, as at
present constituted, has taken on so
many problems that 1t cannot ade-
quately handle the problem OF reforma-
ton among children.

the Santiago caught fire Comdr Carter
said that he found the Santiago listed

the forecastle, with the master and 81
remaining members of the crew stand
ing helplessly on the stern. The others
had abandoned the vessel. one lifehoat,

picked it up, another boat was well
manned and handled while a third

attempting to get off to return to the
ship, but was later smashed in the surf
Sailors from the Nokomis rescued the
master and 81 men on the stern Of the
Santiago. but found the fire beyond con-

nesr the Santiago, but the listing of the
freighter, and condition of the wind
and sea precluded this. Danger from
flying sparks added to the peril.
The Nokomis safely rescued the men
from the burning vessel, as well as those
from the lifeboats, the Navy Depart

So when in the morning we'll after
jolly, round, bright Mr.. Sun had be-
gun his daily climb up in the blue,
blue sky, Happy Jack visited the home
OF his and discovered Unc' Billy there,
the latter was sound asleep and hav-
ing the pleasantest of dreams. But he
wasn't allowed to continue to dream
in peace. Happy Jack is eXcitable. and
when he is excited he lets all the neigh
borhood know it. He did just this now.
He called Unc' Billy robber and all
the unpleasant things he could think
of. and he' did it at the top of his
voice He told Unc' Billy what he
would do to him. but all the time he
nose inside the doorway. When at last
Unc' Billy opened his eyes and grinned
so as to show his sharp teeth, Happy
Jack backed off hastily and remained
back
1t wasn't long before Chatterer the
Red Squirrel came hurrying up to find
out what all the rumpuS was about.
Although as rule he and Happy Jack
are not the best of friends, they some
times work together in a common
cause. and it was so now. He added his
voice to Happy Jacks, and it was even
more spiteful than the latters. He
was bclder than Happy Jack and poked
his head inside to tell Unc' Billy to his
very face what he thought of him. So
presently Unc' Billy began to get a
little peeved. He fissed and snarled at
his tormentors, and at this they re-
doubled their efforts.
That is my home! I built it! I
made that bed and you have no busi-
ness in it!' barked Happy Jack.
Unc' Billy grinned. rs that so?" he
inquired in a drawling tone. rs that
so, Brer Squirrel? How come All found
no one here and no sign that yo' have
been here TO- long time?"
That hasn't anything to do with it."
spluttered Happy Jack. This is my
Summer home and I want 1t this min
ute!"
Too bad. Brer Squirrel, too bad"
replied Unc' Billy, grinning in way
"Yo' see All want it nah own self"
At this Happy Jack fairly jumped
up and down in his rage. Sammy Jay
had come to find out what the fuss was
about. and Blacky the Grow was not
far behind. Each had to take a peep
in at Unc' Billy and then each added
to the noise You see, there is nothing
that Sammy Jay takes more delight in
than in tormenting those of retiring
dlSpoSltlon py telllng all VINO listen
where they are. Blacky the Crow is
much the same way. 1t wasn't long be-
fore most of Blacky's relatives and
friends had come in answer to this
call and were gathered in and about
that tree.
Such racket! My, my N.Y. such a
racket! What with the barking and
scolding of Happy Jack and Chatterer,
the Silrieking of Sammy jay and the
cawing of all those crows, that was the
noisiest place in all the Green Forest.
There was no more sleep for Unc' Billy.
There were no more pleasant dreams.
Now and then one bolder than the
rest would venture to peek inside only
to back off in hurry when Unc' Billy
hissed and snarled But he didn't get
cut. No. sir, he didn't bulge. He was
in possession of that comfortable nest
and he intended to keep possession.
