Mr. Croushorn is of the opinion, that he was under the car for two hours or more . before being discovered, and it must have been a long time, because the motor was cold, when rescuers Appeared on the scene. .The car was not injured, except that the windshield, the top and the steering wheel went broken After the time that the Sheriff left and before he. could .get the garage men to copie and tow the car in, some miscreant stole the headlights, tail-light, side-lighta and cut open the tool compartment and stole all the tools. Fortunately the Sheriff had saved Mr. Crouahorn's valise and overcoat, which were the only artV elea in the car. The rumor that Mrs. Todd's rings were stolen, was Jg'1 V* ' ' *??. .1? fr I r unfounded, iwT her wedding, ring wa* the only jeipely, 'brides , a necklpce, which 'sW. w'orb,' and; Wit', was still oil hor body when found.'

' F^RENCE: ' ???;; ? . _ s The regipnal Conference for Soc ial Servicc which was held at Ashe ville on iFri(iay and Saturday of last week, was attended by several hun dred social service "workers from the counties of western' North Caroliha. Thos^ representing Transylvania county : at. the '} Conference ./were .Superintendent T. C?. Henderson, Rev. J.

Martin, president of the Central- Committee -of, Social Worker? of. Ashcvillc. : The fit st 'speaker of* the morning, after . the invocation by Rev. ' Willi^ G. Clark, Rector of Trinity chufeli, was* Col. Joseph Hyde ' Pratt) Preij - dient of tKe State Conference for Social, Service. He briefly discus^ 90d tt>p functions of the Sta'.e! 'Con rerence-iand whatis expected of the legm if at Conference to be held in 'iCfer^jit sections of the Btatc. "Thr . by note of the Reginal ' meetings > c said; "It service in aroimnj. $h?. individual communities to the' ne?H oj social service betterment, and (Snght to be made permanent and developed to .the- highest point of ef ficiency." . Mayor Cathey of Asheville, in ?welcoming the representatives, said t&*t of all the conventions and dis sociations to whom -he had delivered addresses o^welcotte he was more pleased to welcome the Social Wel fare Conference than. any other. He said that there was talk of having '.the next session of . the NArth Caro lina Legislature exempt Buncombe county from the provisions of the juvenil cpurt act, but that he .hoped he social service conference would be instrumental in tpousing the gen eral publie to see the danger of 'such a step. "There is no more reason," he said, "that this county should be exempt from the juvenile court act han that it should b^ exempt from the general crim'nal code." "Relation of Mental Deficiency to Delinquency," was the subject d!a .ussed by Dr. Harry Crane. In this address Dr. Crane presented many proofs of the relation of a large /lu mber of cases of both adult and juv enil delinquency to mental defici ency, and urged the importance of a reorganisation of the agencies of the State for the better care and treatment of the feebte minded as one of the. most efficient means of solving Uie delinquency problem.

SSfilSl BREVARD, N, C I ? i . a lfrj;e number, of cases of juverill delinquency which had come before i ' hint as judge of the Juvfcnilcourt of AsheTille. He insisted on the im-. portance of eliminating from the trial o j juvenil delinquents as much, as possible any appearance of a "court": He idea was that*he .juv enil., court judge should, as, much as possible, dehl. with the young offender in the spirit of a "big brother." The subject, .. of "Community Schools" was discussed interesting ly an<) at length by Mrs. John Morris, as -she clearly, presented ihe"1 great benefits ' not only to the adults but al?o to .the children in the ' homos wher* evening schools are maintain ed for the training of adult illiter ate^. I ' r The m?et:ng Fridoy ; 'afternoon was- held .in the mam auditorium of Trinity ? church. The. program - ,at this time consisted of discussions* of "The Press as a 'Factor' in Social Service," by D? T?:den? Ramsey; "Mothers' Aid," by Miss Emmeth Tuttle, and "The Vieitihg Teacher as An Aid to the Public SchOolb in Preventing Delinquency," by Miss Marie Miller. ? ' , . . The Friday night .session wa5~ held n the First" "Baptist Chutch, presided over by D. Hidden Ramsey. Two of the chief addresses of the Convention were delivered at this ? session.', Mrs. Kate Bprr Johnson, Commissioner of Public Welfare of u '",n^o^in, An ""-"".or-" Welfare Progress." She emphasiz ed the great need of more social ser vice workers to reclaim those who are rapidly drifting in the wrong direction and sustain ? and' direct those who are yet on "solid ground." The address of Charles W. Hoff man, Judge of the Juvenil Court of Cincinnatti, Ohio, was perhaps the , climax of the conference. \He for eefully expressed his opposition to corporal ptinishmeat in semi-penal : Institutions, in the home or in 'the ] school, stating that such punishment . is fatal to the welfare of thousands | of afflcted children and harks back , to the brutality and methods of the middle ages. , .He expressed the opin'on that if we would think more of "prevent* , ion" and less of "cure," and if the home, the s?hool, the church and the community were intelligently faith ful. t? their duty we would have no need for Jackson Training Schools . or Summer campe. At the session of the Conference Saturday morning Rev. 3. C. Seagle delivered a brief address in which he stated that too much ie perhaps j paid to criminals and not enough to the means of preventing crime. He considered I that "an ounce' of ' pre vention in social service- woVk is worth a groat, deal mort, i-han a'-lb. of cure." He Stated that all oy$* seers' and directors in our penal or semi-pepal institutions should be con sccrated Christian men or worijen, as a stream cannot raise higher thsin, its source. ' \ ? The prinpipal address Saturday was delivered fcy Mrs. ' Martha P,. Falconer, .. from Amejrican Social Hygiene- Association of - New 'York City. -The subject of her address? was "The State's Program for the Delinquent Girl." ' It is a great thing for the citizens of any. section of the State to get' together Occasionally in such * gath ering aV was the RegintJ Conference for Social' Service. In such ( a gtrth ering not only aria plans laid for the betterment of "humanity, - <but also hte spirit of brotherhood tund sister hood)1, is so developed as to somewhat eliminate differences in creeds >ahd sociality. ~ ?
