to see that any widow mother thus committed to their care,
pursuant to the provisions of this Act, is properly caring for
her children; that they are sufficiently clothed and fed; that
they attend school regularly and that said family shall be visit-
ed at least once every two months.

The County Commissioners, in the County in which appli-
cant or petitioner resides or the Board for Mothers' Relief for
Baltimore City shall report to the Juvenile Court, or, if none
exists, to the Circuit Court in such County or to the Juvenile
Court for Baltimore City, in the case of any widow mother who
does not properly care for and educate her child or children,
or when they find that she no longer needs such support. The
Circuit Court or the Juvenile Court shall thereupon revoke
any order made pursuant to this Act, at any time, with or
without notice, and in lieu thereof make any order that in the
judgment of the Court may protect the welfare of the child or
children.

SEC. 7. And be it further enacted, That should the fund or
funds available be insufficient to permit of an allowance to
only a part of the mothers coming within the provisions of this
Act, the County Commissioners in the several Counties or the
Board for Mothers' Relief for Baltimore City, shall select in
their discretion those in most urgent need of such allowance,
and submit such selections, after full investigation, to the Cir-
cuit or Juvenile Court of such Counties or to the Juvenile
Court for Baltimore City for approval, which shall accept the
same or make a different selection on its own account, which
shall then be conclusive.

SEC. 8. And be it further enacted, That the Board for
Mothers' Relief for Baltimore City shall have the power to
employ assistant investigators, not at any time to exceed three,
at a salary of nine hundred dollars ($900) per year for each
investigator, at such time that the Board finds itself physically
unable to conduct investigations, by reason of the burden of
work, whose duties shall be to thoroughly investigate all appli-
cations or petitions and to make stated visits to the homes of
the applicants or petitioners and for such other work as the
Board may prescribe. The Board for Mothers' Relief for Bal-
timore City may also call for the assistance of the probation
officers of the Juvenile Court to assist it in making like investi-
gations and reports.
