Excerpt from A Half Century With Juvenile Delinquents: Or the New York House of Refuge Just fifty years ago, in our city, the Society for the Prevention of Pauperism, which finally was trans formed into The Society for the Reformation of Juvenile Delinquents, made its first report.

The best known and most honored names of the city have been associated with its establishment and progress, and it has enjoyed in their interest and efficient labors a warm and high place.
