Six of these families, representing twenty-four children, have been investigated, and at least preliminary steps have been taken toward meeting the needs of these cases.

This work involved three visits to boarding homes; nine visits to institutions where children are boardea; -192 visits and interviews with relatives and friends of children, 22 interviews with public officials and Iti other interviews. Twenty-seven letters were written. One sixteen year old girl was reported to the agent as being disobedient and lacking proper control.

Investigation showed the girl to be living under conditions which fostered any undesirable traits 'n her character. The mother is dead, the father was anxious to have the girl cared for before she got beyond control. It was found that the girl had not attended school for some time, haying been unable to learn when in school. However, she was active and interested in all kinds of house work. On her father agreeing to pay a small sum monthly, arrangements were made and the girl was taken to a school near New York city, "where she will remain for two years, receiving a training in all branches of domestic work and sewing.

Only fifty girls are received at this school, which is so like a big family as to be disassociated with the word "institutional." A home atmosphere and training will be hers. A ten year old boy was reported as backward in school and in need of special as he not only did trouble with his playmates. His mother was desirous that he should have the right and necessary train- ing. Through the aid of Mr. Edmon- I ston, an application for admission to one of the state schools for mentally defective children was made out and forwarded.

But it was the same old story of over-crowded conditions. The lad will have to wait until a vacancy occurs. A family formerly advised and he-lped by the county agent was again brought to her attention. On the former occasion, trouble between the husband and wife had been cleared up. One child was living at home, another being in a children's home.

Shortly after this another child was born and the child in the institution was brought home, making three children in the family. The father received a good salary, and for some all went well. Recently a medical inspection showed the man's eyesight to be defective and he was removed from his responsible and pay- ins position. Unable to find another paying job in the city he has gone to the west and his wife and three children are without support. Mrs.

Mac- Mian assisted the family until some arrangements could be made for care of the children.
