 Several Years

Ushered in with the first real snow storm of the winter, Thanksgiving ip Bridgeport was more generally observ- ed with bounteous tables than for sev- era1 years.

At the Lakeview Home nine sucking pigs, roasted and garnished with all the good things with which a sucAling pig should be surrounded when it meets it's ultimate fate, were served to the inmates. Orphan instf- turions, old peoples homes, and kin- dred places were scenes of Thanks
 At most of the clubs quiet prevail ed, the members taking advantage of the holiday to enjoy the comforts of the family circle. though last evening there were gatherings of an informal nature in the club houses.
 At the Fairfield county jail, the bill of fare included roast spare rib with all the fixins and the feast concfuded' with. ice cream. The inmates gave three cheers for Sheriff vo9lrner and his staff, and renewed their oft re- peated declaration that of all the jafls they have patronized, and of all the 5aflerS they have met, the Fairhelds county. jail and sherifr Vollmer are best Of all
 Union services were held in the Me- moria1 Baptist church, fhe South Con gregational church, the Second Bap- tist church, and the Calvary Baptist church. Tn the Catholic churches the masses were attended by considerably more. than the usual number at the daily sacrifice.

ONE reason why an ex-convict
fails. with the best of intentions, to
retrieve his past, overmount the i'm
mense obstacles in his tortuous
path, and again reach a common
footing with his unbranded, un-
stained brethren:
Let us suppose that the convict is
a man who received some education
who has sinned from the iempta-
tion of money passing through his
hands. OF course he prefers to
return to that employment for
which he is best fitted. He applies
for a position as clerk to business
man. You will have to keep my
books and handle considerable
amounts of money" explains the
gentleman. L presume you are
fitted for such duties"
The door opens and in strolls the
Knocker. Fitted for such duties?"
questions he. why, of course he
is. Best handler of large amounts
you ever saw. Just got out of pris-
on, after serving term for handling
large amounts with too much famil-
iarity.''
i Naturally very few care to en-
ploy man with such reputation,
and he is, consequently, freed into
most difficult straits to live up to
/ his honest intentions. q a convict
could pick up a living by the road
side hike a sparrow, all would be
we'll and good. But, unfortunately
he requires bread and peat, like
honest men, and these cannot be OBJ
tanned without lucratiys employ
ment.
There is an old s$ing that
Many an honest man ! guilty
man not found out" In other
words, the crime lies bt in the
wrong doing, but in the getting found
/ OUT. Many convict femains a
scoundrel because he is Ipt allowed
to be honest.
