Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Woman Citizen's Library: A Systematic Course of Reading in Preparation for the Larger Citizenship
Perhaps I could illustrate this with the Juvenile Court in Chicago. That was a growth to which a great many people in Chicago contributed. I remember many years ago at Hull House one of our residents went every morning to the nearest police station, and the justice in charge of the station, who was a very kind-hearted man, turned over to her all of the boys and girls who had been brought there for their first offenses. It was really a probation system. He paroled these boys and girls to Mrs. Stevens, who died some years ago when she was still helping children in all sorts of ways.
