Welfare Dinner Largely Attended (Continued from Page One) McKittrick, musical student' at DePauw University at Greencastle, rendered a solo. Each number was very well presented. C.

V. Williams, of Evanston, State Superintendent of the Illinois Children's Home and Aid Society, was the principal speaker. He is of national prominence as an authority on questions relating to public welfare and care of neglected children. Mr. Williams spoke on the essentials of welfare of the individual child.

He said that the association was begun fortyseven years ago and has been functioning since. He said that Illinois has two receiving stations, one at Evanston and the other at Duquoin. The thirty-four southern counties, which includes Madison, are represented at Duquoin. A child is first sent to either of these home where his individual case is studied. When his condition is improved he is then removed to an orphanage.

As the child's home life plays such an important part in the child's development, the' society must all this before sending the children into foster homes. The society stands back of all adoptions, he said. County Judge Wilbur A. Trares spoke on the legal protection of the child. He said that in his experience he has found that the child's environment ranks about 90 per Cent and heredity only 10 per cent in influencing a child's life.

The parents should be very careful of the child's associates, he said. As Madison County has no detention home, the child must be placed in a private home pending the disposition of its case, he stated. When brought to trial, the court must do that which will help the child most, he said. H. C.

Armstrong, President of the Edwardsville Community Chest, discussed community organization for public welfare. He said that the benefits derived from the Community Chest were used for distress work among charitable organizations. The Case Committee which is composed of wembers of various organizations. of the city, both charitable and civic meets once a month and studies cases of this kind which occur in Edwardsville. He said that there are many sordid conditions in Edwardsville with which they must contend.

Weber of St. Clair County, declared that gambling resorts and race tracks in Madison County contribute to tire child delinquency.
