A meeting last night. He said that a judge dealing with juvenile children must not ask for wisdom but an understanding heart- He must be an impartial arbiter of rights of all, and just, regardless of financial status of the people before him. Judge Parrish traced the juvenile court system "founded in Illinois more than fifty years ago, through 1945 when the Indiana legislature drew up the first court order governing child care and guidance. The definition of a juvenile delinquent in Indiana, he said, is an offender, uhder 18, who has commited an act not punishable by life imprisonment, or death, if done by an adult. The procedure in juvenile cases was outlined. He emphasized that only persons having direct bearing on the case are allowed at the hearing. The basic philosophy behind the Indiana juvenile laws is to reform, rehabilitate, through a probationary period or institutional tral ni ng, and not to pu ni shJudge Parrish concluded his talk with the serious thought, that “we, as parents, teachers, or men in public offices, must set a good example for our children by following a strict moral code ourselves.” or, he said "be rid of the positions we hold. We in juvenile problems, teaching them right and wrong. But, he said, "we are not too big to stoop to help a llttls child.” Mrs. Robert Gay called on the Rev.

The trip will be made in three or more special trains, leaving Lafayette on Monday, April 2, and returning Saturday, April 7, giving the travelers three days in Florida. While this thip, the fourth in reunt years for this singing group of Indiana rural women has been in its preliminary stages for some weeks, it was not definite until Mr. Stewart visited Sarasota during the holidays to check on all plans Upon hi sretum meetings were held with university and railroad officials and definite plans pletedPlans for the festivities in Florida are being handled by Tod Swaim, manager of the Sarasota Chamber of Commerce which will serv eas host to the Indiana singers. Under these plane, the occasion wil serve as a reunion for all former Hoosiers now living in Florida and those there on vacation trips with members of the singing groups and one another. A feature will be an open-air concert presentiiig the Hoosier sing erti in Payne Park, spacious spring training home of the Boston Red Sox baseball team. Sarasota, with its miles of beaches, is one of the favorite vacation spots in Florida and during their three days and nights there, the singing groups will be quartered in Its many excellent hotels and motels. Several special events are being planned in their honor. This group of Hoosier songsters, largest women’s chorus in the world with its potential of more than 2,500 members from which to draw, is not only one of the best . known in the nation but is fast get- ) ting to be one of the most widely traveled. In 1050, this Indiana Home Demonstration Chorus made ! its first major trek, going to Washington where it scored a great success as Indiana’s representative in the National Capital Sequicentennial observance. Two years later, the Chorus, along with representatives from the Glee Club, went to Toronto, Canada, where it was featured at the opening of the Canadian National Exhibition. Then tn the Chorus and Glee Club, traveling on three special trains, journeyed to California and won great acclaim in a concert In the famed Hollywood Bowl. Interspersed with these travels with the European trip in which several members of the Chorus joined the Glee Club on its second “good will tour” on that continent. Within the next two weeks, Mr. Stewart will hold district meetings over the state wih directors and officers of the county choruses at which all details of the Florida trip will be explained. It will be a “packe|” trip with the chorus members paying their travel expenses. Seventy-five county choruses were represented in the California trip- With the rates established for the Florida trip, which are available not only to chorus members but their families and friends, it is anticipated 1,500 to 1,800 may make the trek although it is probable some limitations will have to be placed on the total num berWashington — Automobiles used by the White house are not the property of the Presidents.
