JUVENILE CODRTS-Establish-
ment of separate State Supreme
Court and of separate Juvenile
Courts for Kent and Sussex Coun-
ties was advocated by Judge Ernest
V. Keith at the dinner meeting of
the Dover Kiwanis Club in the Ho-
tel Richardson last Wednesday
evening.
Judge Keith is Judge of the Kent
County Court of Common Pleas and
the Kent and Sussex Juvenile
Court.
In connection with his recon-
mendatiOn for a separate Juvenile
Court for each of the two lower

OF the Kent-Sussex Court has in
creased to such a point that it is
impossible for one Judge to serve
the needs Of the Kent Court Of Com
mon Pleas and the Kent-Sussex Ju-
venile Court as now required by
statute.
Judge Keith also explained the
purpose and operation of all the
courts and lauded the service being
given by the state judiciary. H was
introduced by William J. Cavan-
augh, who was in charge of the
program.
