One of the most popular colors for .*handkerchief borders is apple green, { . Mfrtle blue, also, is quite the rage, and many azalia pink borders are seen in the streets and the fashion- able cafes. These are all hem-stitch- ed, of course. All white handkerchiefs to “be smart, say the modistes, must show a medallion of Brussels lace, bearing the initial or a quaint pattern re- mindful of the days of long ago, And then there are powder puffs to match,—they are hidden within the folds of the handkerchief itself.

While the labor- er intended his suggestion as a joke, n_upoid the young’ man’s mind that he assailed the boss with a pitchfork and nearly killed him. “In the case of other criminals, a splendid secular education seems to have been given and every advantage, held in life, and still the. criminal bent is developed. Some of these are more dangerous criminals because of the very education and skill they possess. ‘They assume a smatt- alecky attitude toward life and would rather do the things they think -are clever than those that they know are right. Frequently, their crimes are committed because they have been accustomed to live beyond their means and when they find themselves unable to keep up appearances are too cowardly to live the truth, and commit crimes in order to continue the pceustomed pace, One of tre inmates of our peniten- tiary came from a fine family in Ill- inois, had a splendid education and apparently every opportunity for success in life. His record in his home city seems to have been good. He and another boy -kept company with two girls and enjoyed many en- tertainments and trips together. Then the boys ran out of money and, not wishing the girls to know that they were poor, they held up a farmer and took his car with the intention to drive to one of the smaller towns and there burglarize the bank to secure stfficient money to finance their style of living. “Movies, the bright lights, jazz, and the rapid pace have ruined many a life and wrecked many a promising career. It takes a strong character and considerable will power to with- stand the allurements and tempta- tions of these appealing manifesta- tions of our modern civilization, and where the home, the school, and the church have failed to develop high’ ideals and strength of character, many a boy and girl find themselves | unable to withstand their appealing power, ; ‘Some men of education and ability will plan their crimes for yearg and figure out a philosophy of life that | they are seeking to follow. One of ithe inmates of our institution plan- ned for years to kill one of his neighbors in order to obtain his farm and when the deed had been committ- ed was caught because he had over- looked certain simple precautions, A colored man now serving time in our penitentiary admits that this is the fifth institution in which he has served time and says that with him it is purely a business proposition. As’a business man who speculates of his business judgment, so he stakes his liberty on his ability to} cover up his tracks and get away. He says: “When I get caught, I give up and take my punishment, maintain @ perfect record while I am a prison- penitentiaries and as I shall do here, but when I get out I am going to plan and execute another crime tak-| ing my chances on my ability to get! away. » “It is, of course, futile to hope for} any reformation in the case of these who are hardened and professional criminals, and I believe that the time and energy sometimes expended in seeking to roform these would be much more profitably used in ‘trying to do something for the men who may just be beginning a life of crime largely because of an unfortunate | combination of circumstances rather than because of radical defects of moral character, But when th& criminal is a boy, when the youthful mind js still cam- paratively plastic and easily molded, where the prisoner is still sympathe- tic and subject to the appeal of high ideals and finer sentiments, every ef- fort ought to be made to yedeem such ja one for 4 life of usefulness and citizenship.” European earwigs much damage to vegetation ahd to carpets and other household fabrics in Ovegon -that a special buresu lias been established to fight the pest. \ are doing so |Irene of Fargo are spending fhe week in| ‘them, and the purposeful attention | ment, and as a believer in justice, | nations, I am willing to cooperate in! state, | puts up his money on the accuracy | er, as I have done in the other four|. or who may be in the Penitentiary” ifs were appointed to canvai WILTON Miss Lita Macmartin arrived last week from Hinsdale, Illinois aff is a house guest at the home of Mr. and Mrs. A.
