CASTORIA For Infants and Children lilho For Over 30 Years bears CONNECTICUT GEORGE JUNIOR REPUBLIC Community Which Is Doing Much for Boys—Leroy Dean of Norwich Is Dis- trict Attorney There, Up in the northwestern corner of the state there exists a community for boys that very few people in Conneoti- cut are aware of, the Connecticut George Junior Republic, at Litchfiel This is the only one of its king in New Brmgland and one of about eight in_the whole country. The Junior Republic is not a re- formatory as many are likely to be- lieve, although it does take wayward youths and many from the juvenile courts. It is a self governing commu- nity copied after the model of the United States government. The boys there. make all of their laws and en- force them; very rarely is the super- intendent obliged to interfere, The aim of the Republic is to make good ‘citizens. As America has been called the “melting pot” for ail nations, S0 the Junior Republic is a_melting pot for the different types of youths in the state; the orphan, the rich man’s son who has become unruly, the street waif, the juvenile court of- fender. From 'this mixed assortment is turned out the good citizen, one who becomes a_credit to the state or town in which he takes his residence. The day at the Republic is an igeal one. Every citizen must attena scRool four hours and do hard manual labor on the farm four hours. The com- munity is situated three miles north of Litchfleld and is surrounded by heavy woodland so that outside in- fluences. are barred. The school is divided into two divisions, the high school in the morning and the gram- mar classes in the afternoon. The usual school courses are offered. On Tuesday evenings court is held Where the different offenses are tried for the past week.

The different sentences are meted out to offenders varying from a day in jail or twenty-five cent fine for f: ure to take a bath to six months® im- prisonment or ten dollars fme, the maximum for all offenses. The lat- ter perhaps beine punishment for for- gery, running away, or grand lar- ceny. To be a prisoner at the Re- public is a great .disgrace as well as & hardship. All under arrest are for- bidden to converse with their fellow citizens, must do all the lowly work about the large farm, are fed a pre- scribed prisoner diet and must retire every evening at 7 o'clock, to say nothing. of being under constant sur- veillance of the chief of police. All citizens are paid for everything they do in aluminum currency in form of dollar, fifty cent, twenty-five cent, ten cent, five cent and one cent pieces. From the weeks wages must be de- ducted board ranging from $2.50 to §4.25. All clothing must be paid .for \that the citizens wear and paid for in “hard cash” at. the Republic store. Then if a citizen wishes to_spend a little ‘U, S. currency at the Litchfield storés he may exchange his aluminum coins for American money, two cents Lor one cent, for any amount he may e, Other: than being the district or state’s attorney, Leroy Dean 'is the cashier at the Republic bank and is prominent in all activities at the Re- publig.
