Lights and Shadows of Prison Life
BY Mrs. Maud Ballington Booth,
Of the Volunteers OF Amrea.
Of the Volunteers OF America.

The shadows of prison life arc not the
cells. 1t is not the prison diet that makes the
men behind the bars hopeless. 1t isn't the uni
form that causes them anguish. The real shad-
ows are those which await them when they
have left prison.
Instead of the shadow passing, when they
pass the prison gates and once more find them
selves free. it decpens. They remember the
wasted chances and the lost opportunities.
Their nerves are shattered and they are all un-
strung. II they go to a man and tell him they
have served a term in prison they will find no

The people cling TO the old theory, "oncc q con,ic;, always a con

and its only cause for being quoted is its age.
Let me tell YOU the story Of a Sing Sing prisoner and the part a

at me, smiled in his cynical way, and asked me IL had read an article
printed that morning in one Of the scientific journals.
lie told me that the author, who was a prominent one. had taken
the Sing Sing prison for his subject. lie had portrayed to the best OF his
ability the inmates Of the institution. lie had found them a hardened
lot. lie had compared them with the people OF the outside world and
had found that they were different in all that goes to make genuine man

When a man transgrcsscs the law he must be punished. But people
should be as kind as the law. The law says that YOU have offended and
that you must be punished. 1t fixes the punishment at a certain number
of years in a state prison. 1t says that the offender shall be deprived of
a man shal be deprived OF his standing for all time because he has trans
crossed.
There is a law in France which believe TO be a just one. II forbds
people referring to a man who has transgresscd as an exconvict or an
