Juvenile Court 9th Floor, County Bldg., Tel., Franklin 3000.
Judge, Victor P. Arnold.
Asst. to Judge, Miss Mary Bartelme.
Jurisdiction: Cases brought before it under the act to regulate treatment and control of delinquent, dependent and neglected children. When the parents are sober and decent, but too poor to care properly for their children, the problem is merely one of securing aid, either in their own homes (Funds to Parents) or in institutions as seems best. When neglect is found, as in cases where there is degradation, drunkenness or immorality, the decision is again a judicial function and the children are removed from the custody of the parents and committed to institutions as a measure of discipline and pre- caution. In addition to dependent and delinquent children, those found to be habitual truants or incorrigible in school are brought before the Juvenile Court to be committed to the Chicago Parental School. Court calls: Dependent cases 9:30 a. m. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday; Pension Cases, 9:30 a. m. Thursday; Truant Cases, 9:30 a. m. Friday; Cases of de- linquent girls, 9:30 a. m.
