These yearly minstrel affairs pf the club seem to be on an ascending scale, each event being more successful than It's predecessor. There was a nota-'blf gathering present on Thursday night. and the efforis of the minstrels, espe cially the four end were greatly appreciated, and there was not a single 'number which was not encored several times. The "show" followed an excel lent concert given by the Hoadley Musical Society, several members or which are Invincible Club men.

The dramatic entertainment given at the Knickerbocker Field Club, on Wednesday nieht last, was one of the most successful of the many held at tha cozy I'latbush clubhouse this season. There was a large attendance of mem bers, and the success of the affair re flected much credit on the entertainment committee. Samuel M. Spedon was In charge In the absence of Chairman J. Stuart Rlackton.

Hairy Edwards was Mr. Golightly. a role he acled with a spirit and a keen sense of the humor. His support was ex cellent, Rodney Jarvls assuming th character of Captain Phobbs with skill. while as Mr.

Moreland Robert Kellog, member of the Knickerbocker club, got all possible out of the character. Gould Siebbins as Sam, a Walter, was unctu- uiif in his humor. Grace Green sustained the character of Mrs. Major Phobbs ad mirably, and looked the part in every way. As Mrs.

Captain Phobbs Clara Monsees was delightful. ENTERTAINS SORORITY. Miss Martha 1)111 of St. Mark's ave nue, entertained the Sigma Theta Delta Sorority with an Informal dance on Tues day evening last. Among the meinbeM and guests present were: Miss Alice Frost.

Nearly inn boys and girls, who were mingling wilh evil associates, either because the circumstances of their environment demanded It or through apparent preference to do so, so that the indications were that they might grow up as members of the criminal class, were helped in 1910 to reform through the efforts of the officers and members of the Brooklyn Juvenile Probation Association, which has made public its report for the year. Robert J. Wilkin, Justice in the. Children's Court, is president of the organization. Perhaps because of this fact, the association Is in a better position to come in contact, In an intelligent way, with many children who otherwise could not be saved; the co-operat'on un doubtedly has been very effective In the work ot reforming bad boys and girls, so that when they get older they will not be inclined toward making trouble for the police authorities.

The executive secretary, Gertrude Grasse, states in her report that the number of children cared for in 1010 was 371. Of these, 140 were left over from the year before and the others, 234, were new cases. Since the work began, 1,035 children have been under the care of the association. "Those not closely connected with the work of the Children's Court do not realize that when a child Is sent to a correctional Institution, he or she Is not permanently removed from former surroundings, which have been responsible In mosf cases for the child's coming to the Children's Court In the first place," states the secretary. "It Is estimated Hint 80 per cent, of the children committed to Institutions are ultimately discharged to ttielr homes to the same general environment from which thy cams.

Org-anization Seeks "Big Brothers" for Wayward Boys. "The organization seeks to And a 'friend' or 'big brother' for every child discharged from an Institution. When the notice is received from the Institution that a child has been discharged, a member who has previously given his name as willing to serve, is notified, and he at once takes charge of the child. The children are assigned to a 'friend' of their own religious faith. The volunteers are drawn from the churches, Y.

M. C. St. Vincent de Paul Society, Catholic Clubs, and other organizations. The association requires a monthly report, and conferences of the workers are called at Intervals lo compare botes and exchange ideas regarding the work.

"The work has to be closely supervised and supplemented; by paid workers to make It effective. Between 150 and 200 men and women (for the organization counts among lis members 'big sisters' as well as 'big brothers') are constantly at work and are doing efficient work. Two paid workers have been added In th corps of paid workers this year: a young lor me boys, as the demand for big brothers for bovs nt ih! rnh Is greater than the suppiy, and a worker for colored children for one of the schools "iieie mere is a large colored population. The small sum which is paid the lutter mane possioie by tho generosity of viuo. rne women of that club have helped not only with money bur with very intelligent interest, almost from the beginning of the work.

"Preventive" Work Given Due Consideration. "An Interesting development of the work In Brooklyn In connection with the Children's Court has been what we have lermea preventive In several or the schools work was taken up with the 'difficult' children those who will come to the Children's Court at some time. Often after Investigation of the home conditions, which may have been found to be unsatisfactory, It has been deemed wise to bring such children Into court to get the parents before that tribunal. The work of the association In to supplement work for children, not to duplicate that which already exists. The probation work in the Children's Court in Brooklyn 1B done by three probation officers appointed by the court.

To give continuity to the work for children, the preventive work and 'after care' was needed. This the association aima to do." Judge Wilkin says in his report as president of the association: "I feel that I can congratulate the members on the good work done during the past year. A large number of children have been aided, and, so far as we can learn, only a few have developed along the lines of apparent non-Improvement. I feel, therefore, that with a better understanding between the several departments who are brought In contact with the child saving work, the better knowledge of the meaning of the Child Labor law. and how to secure working papers for boys and girls; the better understanding of the of securing regular and constant attendance of children at.

the schools, and a feeling of comity between all these agencies is developing good for the child. "That more men and women of our public have become interested In some little boy or little girl needing their sympathy and aid, I feel hs been of two- i fold benefit, first to the child In the betterment of the surroundings and conditions, and. Becond, to the 'big brother' or the 'big sister' who has had the reflex benefit of feeling that they have done some good, although perhaps In a limited way. "The c9operatlon existing between the officers of the Children's Court and the various child saving agencies, I wish to acknowledge and my belief In the intrinsic merit of the work of the association. I to emphasize." The report or frank L.

A number of the clubs will have some novel entertainment In celebration of St. Patrick's Day during the latter part of this 'week.

This additional feature Is a very popular one, for Mr. Meyer Is an excellent speaker and has many interesting experiences to tell about bis recent trip. The club will celebrate St. Patrick's Day, the day after, by holding a "stag" entertainment on Saturday evening. March 18.

Special arrangements have been mode with John Watt, to secure a good "hill" by professional vaudeville talent and the members will be permitted i to Issue tickets to their friends. The fact that this will be the last stag entertainment, of the present season Is pointed out as an additional reason for a large attendance. The board of directors of the club has Issued a special notice, prohibiting the members from entering the auditorium and Opening the draperies on all occasions when the auditorium Is being used for other than club sntertalnment. The auditorium, which Is especially adapted for amateur theatricals and is provided with a dancing floor, is in use many 'evenings during the week, other ha n) hose th pnmmltten Relents for the club enter-' tainments, by outside organization's, for their annual events.

The decorations will also be in the spirit of the occasion and there will be quite a number of other bright features for the affair. The club members are planning to emphasize the Importance of the celebration or the purchase of the clubhouse, finally accomplished last month, And there is a possibility that the "circus cotillon," already announced, may be postponed unt'l some ruture aate.

A special feature will be provided at the Union League Ciub on Friday evening of this week, not scheduled on the regular entertainment programme. This will be a club dinner fur the members, theiv wives and friends, with Cnptain Robert A.
