Prisoners First Friend.

Chicago, Feb. 7.-Superintendent F.
Emory Lyon of the Central Howard
association is big brother or first
friend" to probably rs many if not
more paroled prisoners than any other
man in the country. Yet the associa-
ton which he heads is comparatively
obscure. This is partly because the
work it does can be better done in Il
quiet, transformations manner. Under
the parole laws of the states in the
middle west certain prisoners may be
released on condition that some in
dividual qualities as first friend"
guarantees employment and general
oversight of the one thus given his
liberty. Hundreds of prisoners appeal
to this association for such help. Mr..
Lyon either signs the papers of APP
proved applicants as first friend" or
secures them employment.
