How do we help a child?
Ladies of the Women's Auxiliary attend the juvenile Courts and report to the Inspectors any cases which need our help. By this means, and by collaboration with the Police and tho Ro- mand Home, we can claim to have rescued many a child from a life of crime into which it had unwillingly fallen through force of cir- cumstances.
