WHEREAS, The old ayatem ot In
carcerating youthful offenders with
hardened orlminali has proven hurtful
both to such Juvlnlle delinquents and
society at large, and whereas, the
Juvenile Court and ProbaUon System

motion of such children wherever glv

Therefore, We heartily recommend
that thin system be put In operation
In Ware county and we alao recom
mend (hat the next grand jury of thla
court' take the same action recom
mending these, children’s codrta. ‘
We further recommend that any. de
linquent c&Ud In the county who may
not or dMinot be reformed under the
probation system, be commlfted to the

tjrda under the lawn of Georgia, lo be
trained and provided for at the Junior
