ASHEVILLE.

Asheville has no detention home for
children awaiting trial, but children
are rarely detained in the city lock-up
and can usually be depended upon to
be in court at the time set for their
trial. Only occasionally are children
tried at the regular session of the po
lice court. They are tried at a sepa
rate session but in the same court
room. Asheville has a probation
system with a white officer for white
children and a colored officer for
colored children; but these only look
after the children going to school.
These two officers are paid out of
the school fund. In addition to them
the city has a whole-time, salaried
Big Brother who looks after not only
the children in the court but also af
ter other wayward children who have
not yet been brought before the court.
He studies the home-life of such chil
dren with a view to suggesting reme
dical measures that may keep them
out of court. This Big Brother is
paid a salary by the city. Besides
these three paid officers, responsible
i negro men and women are sometimes
appointed by the cpurt to do volun
teer prohibition work. Negro children
are committed to their care. Such
children are required to report to
the juvenile court at 4:30 o'clock
Wednesday afternoons. They are al
so required to attend a colored juve
nile Sunday School in the court-room
at 5 o'clock every Sunday afternoon.
If the child is incorrigible, he is sen
tencecKto the county home or county
farm for a indeterminate period.
Asheville has a city reformatory for
white boys who have become incor
rigible. There is no reformatory for
white girls, but the few who are
brought into court are, as a rule, pa
roled under the care of some respon
sible person. The judge of the Ashe
ville court says, "We require all boys
and girls and each man and woman
to attend Sunday School each Sunday
and have their teachers sign their
cards and present them to court on
Wednesday- afternoon." , -

WINSTON-SALEM.
4 4-,
Winston-Salem has fitted up an
apartment of its city lock-up children
awaiting trial where they may be kept
separate from the adults awaiting
trial. The instances are compara
tively rare in which the officers do
not feel justified in simply citing the
child to appear in court on a day fix
ed. Children are tried in the regu
lar court-room but after the court
room has been' cleared of all but the
officers, the witnesses, and the child
to appear in court on a day fixed.
Children are tried in the regular
courtroom but after the court-room'
has been cleared of all but the offic
ers, the witnesses, and the child and
its parents. Winston-Salem has no
probation officers either volunteer or
paid. Occasionally the court appoints
some public-spirited person to look
after a child and report its progress
from time to time. But such a per
son is usually already over-worked
and cannot give the child the needed
attention. Such a system of proba
tion is anything but satisfactory. For
syth county has a reformatory. This
is for boys only. White boys occupy
one of the buildings, colored the oth
er. In most cases of a first offense
the court simply lectures the child
and its parents and continues the
prayer for judgment conditioned upon
the good behavior of the child. If the
child violates the condition of tho
suspension of judgment and 1s
brought back, he is sentenced to tho
county reformatory.
From the above it appears that
Asheville is far away ahead of any
city in North Carolina in its work for
juvenile delinquents. Asheville his
three officers two paid out of the
school fund and the other out of the
city treasury to look after its way
ward children; no other city in the
State, unless it be Durham about
which I have no information, pays a
probation officer a Gent out of its pub
lic funds. While each of theother
cities is moving forward, it is still
far behind Asheville, and Asheville
itself, is considerably behind several
of the other Southern cities even, not
to mention the Northern cities.
