THE LAST HOPE
GIRL SENT TO BORSTAL FATAL LURE OF MOTOR-CARS “She’s got her head down, and is going fast against the wind,” said ChiefDetective Hammond, when a girl, aged 19, was charged at the Police Court to-day with being idle and disorderly. Major Annie Gordon, female probation officer, said that the girl was uncontrollable, and her family would have no more to do with her. “I’m satisfied that the Borstal is the only thing that can save her,” said the Major. “As it is, she spends her nights in motor-cars.” Accused was sent to the Borstal Institute for two years, and her name was suppressed.
