A vigorous protest against the waste of the juvenile probation officer's time involved in preparation of reports as to the character and circumstances of juveniles charged with petty offences against the by-laws was made by Mr. ¥. K. Hunt, S.M., at Auckland, on Saturday. A boy of 15 pleaded guilty to riding a bicycle on the footpath in West Street and was fined 5s and costs. "I see you havo presented a report. Is it necessary in a case like this?" asked the magistrate. "We havo to make a report in every case," the probation officer replied. "It is a waste of time in a stupid little by-law case like this," said Mr. Hunt. "It is nonsense to waste half a day going found getting a report when you have not enough assistance for the work you havo to do already (reports (lie "New Zealand Herald"). Do not waste time on them again." The Simplex Hand Embroiderer, 2s Cd oiieli at Kirkcaldic's. This wonderful lilllo .invention doi'S work in si few hours that wonld take- weeks by the. old method.
