Twoâ€"thirds of mental defecâ€" | tiveness is hereditary according to Dr. H. H. Goddard. But in dealing with an unfortunate child born with a menâ€" tal lack and a consequent moral weakâ€" ness, it is socially foolish and wrong to treat the child as a criminal. It is entitled to paternal sympathetic treatment. It needs care and trainâ€" ing for body, mind and spirit such as it will receive in an industrial class in school or in a school given over to the care of the feebleâ€"minded. Society is, by its negloct, responsible for the birth of twoâ€"thirds of these little ones! L BY DR. J. G. SHEARER. ; _ Since the century began great proâ€" ; gress has been made in the care of ; delinguent children. The aim uniâ€" , versally accepted is to keep them from association with criminals in goal or _ court or penitentiary, to treat them as erring children, and to resiore them to _ rectitude and good citizenship. ; _ The Juvenile Deliquents Act of Canada passed in 1908 states in its preamble that "it is not expedicnt that youthful offenders should be classed or dealt with as ordinary criminals; the welfare of the community demands that they should on the contrary be guarded against association with crime and criminals, and should be subjected to such wise care, treatment and control as will tend to check their evil tendencies and strengthen their better instincts." Hence the Juvenile Courtâ€"not the Police Court, the Deâ€" tention Homeâ€"not the goal, the Inâ€" dustrial Schoolâ€"not the prison or penitentiary are required in terms of this beneficent measure. Children are not born delinquents as many suppose or assume. ‘They become such,. And society has much responsibility for this as is shown from a consideration of some of the causes of delinquency. One of the most fruitfal of these causes is montal defectiveness. _ Soâ€" ciety could and should prevent the greater part of meontal defectiveness THE DELINQUENT BOY OR GIRL !ater as sdolescent or and at an enormously 1 money, in addition to and ruin wrought in h child is on hip, it will a confirmed met his matchâ€"â€"in a woman. ed at his surgery in Edinbu showed him a hand bodly ind ewollen. ‘The following dialoj #4 by the doctor, took place: Ns Wasted Words.
