THE PLAINT OF A CROOK George Thmopeson, who has spent 22 years of his 60 In prison, says there is so ittie real humanity and so much real hypocrisy in the ‘World that a man who ts once a crook is doomed always to be a crook, He walked tmto a New York barber shop and stole six razors. He ‘waa caught. He was anxious to be caught, he said, for he was hungry and could not find work. After be had completed his last term tn prison he determined to be honest. He secured half a dozen jobs in succession. In every tn- stance somebody Giscovered that he had a prison record and de- nounced him, and he was driven to his eld trade, for only at the jail ‘Was there a welcome. ‘That is his story. ‘The usual thing in a case like this would be to denounce human- ity for its heartlessness and its merciless manner of keeping a man Gown once he ts down. Pacts and figures are against confirmed crook. Bvery day the doors of « thou sand prisons open to release one or ‘gage men who have completed th eir punishment, Bo ait of them, or even « great part of them, return to criminal ‘ways? If they do, then our system of punishment is a complete failure, But they do not. There are th ousands of men who have served terms in prison cells who are toda y respected and useful citizens. They fefermed, and were so sincere and conscientious in their reformation that society forgave them, and they found a place to labor and live. “Once a crook, always a crook,’* is the cry of one lacking the ele- ments of true manhood. The fact that George Thompson has put in twenty-two years behind bars in the prisons of five different states Speaks much for his criminal instincts, and mighty ttle of a desire to be honest. Bome of the people who fo not understand are hard-hearted, but it fe not the rule. In every comm unity there are good men and wom- €n G0 interested in the uplifting Of humanity that ther are willing and anxious to lend a hand. “ONCE A CROOK, ALWAYS A CROOK” ts not true.
