VOLUNTER TO GET HURT
TO REALIZE ON POLICIES
“We are living, we are dwelling,
In a grand and awful tints.
In an age on ages telling,
To be living Is Sublime.”
And among the world’s progress
and advancement, the law has not lag
ged behind with slow and faltering
steps. No, that law, “whose voice la
the harmony of the world and whose
seat la the bosom of God," has kept
shoulder to shoulder with the advance
guards of civilisation and progress.
And In all the progress of ths law
throughout the entire civilised world,
the most Important and most forward
step waa taken by the United States
when the first Juvenile court was es
tablished only eight years ago.
Says Samuel J. Barrows, United
States commissioner to the Interna
tional Prison Commission: "The es
tablishment of Juvenile courts Is the
most notable development In Judicial
principles of the present century, and
never before has n judicial reform
made such rapid progress.”
Growth of Juvonllo Courts.
Eight years ago, there waa not a
single Juvenile court In all the world.
Now In this country, twenty-two states
have some kind of legislation for Ju
venile offenders and thirty-eight cities
have established Juvenile courts. This
great reform Is now sweeping among
the civilised nations like a Dralrte lira
—nothing can stop It or put It out till
It burns Itself Into the consciences of
all peoples.
Following the lead of our country,
these courts are now being dstabltahed
In Canada, Australis, England, Scot
land and Ireland, and will soon be In
every civilised country In the world.
In our own country, Juvenile courts
are now established In New York, Chi
cago. Denvar, Baltimore, San Francis
co, hoe Angeles, New Haven, Pueblo,
Wilmington, Springfield, Dubuque, Des
Moines, Washington, Lowell, New Or-
will be Intlmdated from following
his footstepo. It Is quite different with
the Juvenile court Idea.
Idea Is To 8avt.
Here thp baste Idea la to save the
Individual child from becoming a vf
clous adult, and not to punish him,
except eo far aa such punishment may
help In hie reformation. In Juvenile
courts, the child as soon as he Is ar
rested Is placed In a detention ward
separated entirely from the prison for
adults. In the most up-to-date Juven
ile epurts, there Is a school room with
books, blackboard and a matron t(
teach him hla leeaone while he Is un
der detention. He le detained In this
ward until the probation officer can
find out all the facta In hla case, visit
the home If necessary, talk with his
parents, and see hla home environ'
ment. The probation officer then
brings the child before the court ar.d
states to the judge all that he has
learned about the boy, the case against
him, the boy’s parents and hla home
aurroundlngi- The court then deter
mines whether to dismiss the case,
put ths boy on probation and 1st him
return home, or to place him In some
other home or Institution, where his
surroundings will he better. In a Ju
venlle court, the probation officer It
oven more necessary, than the Judge.
He should be a' many-sided man, i
than of big heart, but or sound judg
ment; gentle os a woman, but Arm aa
adamant, and os patient as Job him
self. When a child la put on probation
by the court, the probation officer at
once takes charge of him, takes him
Into his office, has a long talk with
him and his parents, makes arrange
ments for the child to write him once
a week, stating what he Is doing, and
visits the home of the child as often as
possible, so that he can see for him
self how the Child Is doing. If the boy
Is neither at work nor at school, the
probation officer must secure him a po
sition or get him Into school. In other
words, the probation officer, when he
flndn the child to be without parents
nr without proper parents, must act as
the child’s guardian and do for him
what he would do for his own child.
Aa has been well said, the homeless
waif has a right to say, ’’When my
father and my mother forsake me,
then the state shall take me up.” •
Thera la ho grenter work than that
of helping little children to become
good citlxena and 1st us hope that this
movement wilt spread so rapidly
throughout our state that when your
next convention meets, every mayor of
ovary town and city In Georgia can
rise and state that hla municipality has
a Juvenile court.
