This again may be misleading as one would have to take into consideration the relative proâ€" portions of juvenile appearances in court in‘ each province in regard to population of each province. For exâ€" ampleâ€" Ontario has a population of 3 431,163 and Quebec has ropulation of 2,874,255. The number of juvenile uents appearing in court in Onâ€" bario was 4,380 and in:â€" Quebe¢t 1,873. Therefore, the population of Quebec is 823.75 per cent. that of Ontario and the number. of gelinquents,.appegring...beâ€" _A PAY 3. 45. ie K ki 4 Nb h ts ,.r«'h 4 +6 Ailp hah e 0 4 ~"The report of Juvenile Delinquents in Canada for 1931 is encouraging in that it registers, for the first time in ten years, a decrease in the number of juveniles appearing before the courts,. Major delingquencies decreased two per cent and minor delinquencies decreased bwenty per cent. and the decrease is particnlarly interesting to Ontario beâ€" cause that province showed a drop of 10 per cent. in major cases and 25 per cent. in minor cases. This would look as though the wideâ€"spread interest and considerable expenditure of money in Ontario on work among juveniles is beâ€" ginning to bear fruit and it is to be hoped that this decrease will continue. ~~â€""The number of appearances before courts in Ontario in 1931 was lessened by 17.24 per cent. as compared with 1930 but of course it may be that the bolice â€" and â€" reformative authorities genérally were not so active nor insisâ€". tent on bringing juveniles before courts as formerly and that in itsel!f might be beneficial. The decrease in juvenile offenders in 1931 is credited to Ontario and the western provinces while Queâ€" this analysis is given below. All inâ€" terested in the problemâ€"and all good citizens should be interested in this questionâ€"awill find the analysis of great interest and value.

In this report two facts stand out. whatever may be the exâ€" planation, there has been a distinct lessening in the number of juveniles appearing before the courts in Canaâ€" da.

The Empire Club of Toronto wishing to forget the war and its horrors had invited the Count to a banquet, while he was in Toronto on an engagement at Massey Hall where he was to lecture. The Empire tJlub also invited Mayor Stewart to zeome and welcome the Count. In reâ€" fusing, the mayor said that in fairness to the citizens of Toronto this was not possible. The Count in his lectures boasted of the shinps which he had helped to sink, some being passenger and.others, peaceful mercantile ships. In radio talks this same German has had some tall stories to tell. ~Ripley‘s "Believe it or not" columns fades into oblivion compared to the marvellous escapes and miracles which the Count has stated in his experiences as hapâ€" penings in Ixs life. _All this may be true but the war career of this person is typical of his race. The killing of innocent people to gain power was their chief idea in war days. Those of us who may have witnessed with our own eyes the results of the‘ autrocities carâ€" ried on ruthlessly by the Gerimans in their advance for world power will never forget these things. Some of them were of such a deplorable nature that one‘s thoughts rebel at their menâ€" tion. It is strange that this part of the German‘s acts of the World War seems to have been forgotten, and anyâ€" one who commenced a series of radio talks cor lectures on "German Atroâ€" cities, 1914â€"1918""would not be allowed to speak on the grounds that they were immoral and degrading to the people, yet .a Count from that country can openly boast of the mercantile and passenger ships he helped send to the the Porcupine [* TheCanadian Legion in you : may ~do better!" > Another haps I can get a new dress for you, BUT THE YOUNGSTER WAS .

Others tell of children being frozen on the way to school, and one man who was charged with not sending his children to school made the plea, "No Clothing" and‘the magisâ€" trate had to dismiss the charge. But why worry you with more illustrations. You will know after four crop fallures, the situation must be desperate. Can you help us again?
