who is right in the following dis
CUSTOM
A is serving a four year SEN
tence. After serving two years he
is paroled. After being on parole
ten months he violates the condi-
tons Of his parole and is returned
to prison.
B claims that A must serve the
remaining two years of his SEN
tence, minus the good time he
may earn after his return.
G claims that A must serve four
teen months, minus the good time
he may earn after his return.
@ claims that AS time counted
while he was on parole and that
he lost only the good time be had
earned when he broke his parole.
Who is right? How much time
will A actually serve within the
walls Of this prison? DISCO.
| G is right. A served two years
and ten months before he lost any
good time, leaving one year and
two months yet to serve. The two
months are in the third year and
consequently A earns eighteen
days in them, and as he earns 12O
days in the fourth year, his good
time after being returned for vio-
lation of parole amounts in all to
1873 days, or four months and
eighteen days. This deducted
from one year and two months
leaves nine months and twelve
days actual time A has to serve
He spends in all two years, nine
months and twelve days in prison
and ten months on parole.

PROTEST AGAINST PROFANITY.

To the Editor of The Globe:
Inc general prevalence of profanity
is becoming SO marked that thought I
would ask thee use of your columns to
enter few words in hope that some
thing might be done to restrain if not
entirely correct this habit Stepping
into one of our wholesale houses NOT
long ago while waiting for an invoice I
was panied to hear clerk, who Judge
was about middle aged man, use bro
Zane language, and in the course of a
few seconds he was followed by his as
slstant, who was only. a boy, using the
same kind of language Passing along
the sidewalk where one of our whole
sale houses was shipping goods on the
Sidewalk, profane language was used in
loud tones that could be heard by the
passers by. Stepping INTO another
wholesale house to take the elevator.
profane language could be heard as
passing between the clerks in the Office.
While waiting at the telephone to re-
celve a message from another whole
sale house, profane language could be
heard over the telephone as passing
between the clerks. Now. all of these
houses are presided over by men of
business honor, and some of them pro-
fessedly Christian. On entering one of.
our public buildings in this city. young
boys, who were under their majority.
used profane language freely and al
most constantly.
We. are. supposed to be a Christian
government. The profanity habit is not
the worst sim the world. but it is bad
enough. God is the largest, the hottest
word ever pronounced by human lips.
because it stands for the largest. hottest
thought ever born of the human brain.
and it is not good manners to use this
great word as many are in the habit of
doing. The man that filings that sacred
word around profanely may not be bad
at heart, but there is ne escaping the
conclusion thatahe is criminalIy care
less But one9eloser than even the
word God" we often hear kicked and
cuffed around the curbstone and alleys
by thoughtless mortals. This is the
name Jesus. Jesus was the best friend
poor old humanity ever had. He lived
but for one paft5ese-to make US better
and happier-and, he laid down his life
for our sake. Profanity of speech leads
logically to profanity ef thought and
desire. 1t is assure as anything can be
in this world that young boys growing.
