PUBLIC WELFARE WORK.
That Has Been Accomplished In
Franklin County Since Its Estab
lishment,
IVir. oseph C. Jones, Superintendent
of Public Welfare, submits a partial
report on the work of his department
slitce it? establishment that will be of
interest to all, and we feol safo In oay
ing that will be endorsed by the larg
er portion of Franklin's citizenship.
It will be noticed that he uuggests a
co-operation on the part of the public
to the end that the good results of this
department may be extended to every
individual in the county that is in need
and we will add that it is a most
wholesome suggestion and one In
which our people should be delighted
to take part. The report follows: .
Editor Times. Louisburg, N. C.
Suggested from your editorial of last
week and feeling that the people of
the county are entitled to some Infor
mation concerning this work, even
though a good portion of it Is debarr
ed from publication on account of the
unnecessary embarrassment it would
bring about. I give to you the follow
ing information that you are at liber
ty to give publicity to if you see fit.
The Public Welfare work and the
Juvenile Court have been in operation
in the county for several months and
. no statement has yet been published
regarding the work accomplished.
I feel that the public is entitled to an
account of all the work that has been
done and I am therefore preparing this
statement of the work that has actual
ly beed done that the people may see
that much good has been accomplished
ami that much more remains to be
dolie when the people understand just
what thn work Is.
Sphere have been between twenty1
r.nd thirty juvenile (children) cases
J r Tidied by the Juvenile court and the
Superintendent, out of court.
A it is not practical to publish an
account of each case as It will take up
too much space in the paper 1 am giv
ing an account of a fe_w cases and the
disposition made of them.
It Is the purpose of the juvenile work
to assist a child when it has gone
w\rong to do better and not to punish
it and therefore it would not be just
fair to the child to publish in a news
paper an account of his or her mlsdtf^
lngs, and then some of the cases ate
ii "w
nn wtifiwr the cgirtutttflter
given them as they come up.
Each case is given a number as it
occurs, for instance case No. 1 was the
first tn nrcur_and _case .\a_5 was tne
fifth we had to handle and so ou down
the list; ?? ? i- ?
The cases published arc selected as
being typical of the work being done
and shows the variety of the juvenile
cases coming up and the disposition
made of eacn.
Case No. 2: Is a little fourteen
years old girl whose father Is dead
and whose mother had virtually aban
doned her having married again and
nvoved away to Another county leav
ing the little girl with an old aunt.
The aunts health failing she was
not able to care for the little girl any
longer and as her people were not
able or willing to care for her she had
no where to go.
She wrote me a letter asking if I
could tell her what to do as she would
soon be without -a home as her aunt
had to break up housekeeping and
ftfrr* thff little girl, had no where to
go.
Very fortunately.-I was able to se^
cure a scholarship for her at one of
tho best colleges in the south, with all
expenses paid. She can now stay at
J:he college urilil she has graduated
and is able to Take- Card ofherself.
Case No. 8: " Is a boy who had been
giving his teachers and parent lots of
trouble.
They were talking of expelling him
from school as they were not able to
manage him.
He was carried before the juvenile
At the end of the pionth I received
a report from his teacher saying that
his deportment was entirely satisfac
tory. that he was putting forth some
effort to learn and that It was a pleas
ure to teach him.
Case No. 10: Is a boy thirteen years
of age.
His father was unable to manage
Ul nar urmr nl.lmnit pr
day but would ramble
night or In the day
about with a bunch of boys. He fi
nally stole a considerable amount of
money.
The money was latsrvrecoreredvaftrt
liti father then rame to me aad asked
me to help hin> as he was not able to
.ranage him.
A place was secured for him liv one
of the best training schools where he
will now have a chance to overcome
his bad habits and by thorough train
ing to become a real man.
Case No. 14: A little colored girl.
This girlB father died leaving her
mother two farms, her mother later
married again and shortly after died
leaving the little girl with her step
father and leaving the step-father In
charge of the farm.
Some time later her fathers people
tried to get her away from her step
father claiming that he was not car
ing for her properly and that they did
not even get enough to eat.
The case was investigated and' the
step-father was given an excellent
name by both white and colored peo
ple, he had six barrels of flour, several
hundred pounds of meat enough com
to last him through the year and he
was taking excellent care of the farm
and of the the child.
Ah was stated before these are only
a few of the juvenile cases that have
Dccured since the welfare work was
begun in the county and as tfie people
become better acquainted with the
work and report to us all the cases
needing assistance the work will broa
den until there will not be a needy
assistance needed and -the cases of de
linquency in children will be attend
ed to before the child will have devel
oped criminal habits that will ruin Its
chances in^life.
There has been a considerable
amount of work done along other lln
ejs, as the following will show:
An appropriation of $275.00 was se-'
cured for the FrileyH school from the
Wake County Board of Education to
take care of the children from Wake
that were attending the Rileys school.
About 90 trips have been made to
schools looking after the attendance
and more than two -hundred and fifty
letters written.
One hundred and fifty permits have
been written excusing children tem
porarily from attending school to help
on the farm.
The school attendance has "been In
creased abtiut forty per ceirt over what
It has been before.
The outside pauper list was given
me to investigate and several were
found on the list -who_had no right to
be there.
A tr-an who had been on the list had
been dead for some time but some one
was still drawing his pension.
Another man had his three children
on tile list Hhd upoa Investigation it
was found that one of them had mar
ried and had several children, anoth
er was grown and making a good sal
ary while the youngest was large en
ough to support himself. They were
all stricken from the list.
Several have attempted to get on the
pauper list that upon investigation
were found not entitled to a place
there.
Between twenty and thirty soldiers
and sailors have been- assisted in se
I curing compensation, insurance, uni
forms, back pay, allotments, straight
ened out, medical treatment, etc.
One soldier was placed .in a hospital
and treated free by the government.
This gives in a general way an ac
count of the work that & being done
poaBlbliiUa? ^or
veil It hr all the people.
Xo~child under sixteen years of ag<
may now be tried before the superioi
court who has committed a crime uir
der a felony, the juvenile court nan

All orphans and dependent children
will bow be looked after and homes se
| cured for tho3e needing them.
The indigent aged and infirm will be
looked after and cared for as they arc
reported to us. There have been sev
eral cases along this line that we
have been able to care for satisfactori
ly.
I trust that this report will* show to
those not so well acquainted with the
work what has_been- and is being done
and will cause them to give us their
assistance in making the work even
they may know of needing help in any
wafy, especially the orphaned, blind
and crippled children.

20 minutes, then rub through a strain
er. Welt the butter, add dry ingred

Shirred Eggs: Cover the bottom
and sides of a small baking dish, pre
ferably an earthern one, with fine
bFead or cracker crumbs. Break each
egg into a saucer and carefully slip it
into the dish. Cover with seasoned
buttered crumbs and bake in a mod
erately hot oven until the whites are
firm and crumbs are a golden brown.
Eggs in Nest: Carefully-separate
the white from the yolk of an egg.
Beat the white until stiff and pile light
ily on a nicely trimmed slice of toast
? With a-spoon make a depression in the
1 top of the white and slip the egg yolk
j into it. Place on a baking dish in e
'mode-rate oven and when the whit?
I has become golden brown remove and
I serve. Season to taste.
*" I
I Eggs Baked in Tomato: Cut a slice
j from the stem end of a small tomato
and scoop out part of the pulp. Refill
Lthis with aq, -egg, sprinkle with salty
