CHILDREN’S COURT FOR ONTARIO COUNTY

Governor Sulzer of New York on April 11 approved two bills to give the County Court of Ontario exclusive jurisdiction throughout the county over cases of neglected and delinquent children, and concurrent jurisdiction in certain offenses against children. The laws are almost identical with the Monroe County Children’s Court Act of 1910, and make Ontario County the second in the state to have a county children’s court using a civil instead of a criminal procedure. The bills were framed by the State Probation Commission at the request of County Judge Robert F. Thompson and of the Board of Supervisors. A civil service examination will be held in the near future for the purpose of securing a competent probation officer for the court.

A SUNNY LIFE

The Biography of Samuel June Barrows

By Isabel C. Barrows

SAMUEL JUNE BARROWS, who at his death was one of the leading penologists of the country, started his career as a reporter on a New York paper. In turn, he became private secretary to William H. Seward, then Secretary of State, minister, editor, congressman, and Secretary of the Prison Association of New York. He was one of America’s best and typical products, many sided and capable. This account is written by his wife who more than anyone else understood and appreciated his rare and lovable nature. Her volume is most delightfully written and the reader will find this record of achievement a stimulating and uplifting work.
