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 | dies' llfese cases and instead 01 punTstv | ing the ?h{M?by?pyWtag- kmi ! Anemoni with.-real Criminals where he himself may become a hardened crim inal he is either put on probation witt 'some one who is able to rare for him [ properly oi* he io ?*oni 10 a?teatotoj ! school for correction and not punish ment. 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.
