EDUCATING CONVICTS.

Prison reform took long step for
ward when penitentiaries ceased put
ting men indiscriminately on rock
piles and allowed them to work at
their regular trades, or if they had
none gave the men a choice as to what
trade they would like to follow and
then taught it to them. But bigger
step is about to be taken in Kansas.
Chancellor Frank Strong of the Uni
versity of Kansas has worked out a
plan to give the convicts a college edu-
cation through the extension depart
ment of the university. Twenty-nine
courses covering business. engineer
and languages are offered i'm the plan.
The men will continue to work at their
trades. and those who wish it will be
gwen an educatlOn.
A man who has trade and no char
acter is deficient, and that is why il
is so hard for many cOnvicts to re-
form. AS a character builder. a means
of developing a mans social ideals.
education is supreme.
And this is the great value of the
plan: it will give the men that chance
no more than is due them-tO build
up their character and be better pre-
pared to re-enter that society which
has for a time cast them out.

STRAIGHTEN UP.

The American Poster League has

fore itself the task of Strengthening

This is no small piece of work, but
it is one that is needed. The league
is starting at the root of the trouble
by working among the school children
and the office and factory employees
who sit at desks or stands before ma

WHY NOT "CHAUTALKERSr

The newspapers have been rather
half humorOusly commenting on the
fact that W. j. Bryan, W. b. Wilson
and other prominent men are going to
appear on the chautauqua platform
this summer along with 1.-The prince
of jugglers" and the harmony four. "
Why shouldn't Cabinet members and
other leaders talk from the chautau-
qua platform? For the small town or
city the chautauqua is the best agen-
cy yet discovered for unifying the
best interests and educating and en-
tertaining everyone.
In a neighboring state there is a
small city with a mixed mining and
farming population, large foreign
element and a strong saloon force.
Eight years ago the town was in the
same condition it had been for the
last twenty years-no growth. no i'm
provements. no life Ten men. bus
mess and professional men, banded to-
gether to have a chautauqua. The
first Year was small beginning. but
now each year 1.2OO people camp out
doors and enjoy life during the two
weeks that the chautauqua is held in
one of the prettiest city parks in the
state. A big steel auditorium was
built by popular subscription. The
money made from the assemblies is
used in improving the public park
The average daily attendance is three
fourths the population of the town
and sometimes it runs several thous-
and more than the number of resi-
dents. when men like Bryan. Wilson
and other leaders speak.
Perhaps it seems a bit undignified
that the secretary's speech should be
preceded by the harmony four" but

BOOK REVIEWS
"AnOther Mans Shoes"

Imagine yourself stone broke in
London and almost down and out.
Think of suddenly falling heir to an
offer of $4,000 to masquerade as
your own double for a fortnight.
Then imagine, if you can, how you
would feel in accepting all the
thrills, the adventures, the romance
and the luxury of another mans life,
and you have the setting of An
other Mans Shoes" written by Vic
tor Bridges.
This is not a detective story. 1t is
Just one in which a rich man desires
to throw all the responsibilities and
dangers of his own doubtful life onto
another. From the time John Burton
dons Stuart Northcote's garments and
walks out of the Milan Hotel there is
not a slow moment.
Soon after Burton comfortably
seats himself in his new library, he
is deliberately shot at from the win
dow. His long training in the wilds
of South America saves his life.
Turning, he sees his assailant is a
beautiful girl Burton complicates
matters by promptly falling in love
with her. Mercia Solano is the
daughter of a South American presi-
dent, who has been murdered by the
original Northcote. She is MEM
ber of the Black Hand which has
marked Northcote. Burton tells Mer-
cia he is not the man she seeks.
After several rather dramatic meet
ings he convinces her.
The adventures which befall Bur-
ton while he is in another mans
shoes are facinating from the first.
Not one detail is allowed to detract
from the main theme. Although the
story is told in the first person we
are constantly keyed up to the great
danger of Burton's position. The
reader is not impressed with the ar
rogance which usually accompanies
a personal narrative. The incidents
of the plot are so consistent the
reader does not feel inclined to read
the last chapter first.
After the Black Hand gets the
original Northcote in spite of his dis
guise, Burton's most serious difficulty
comes in his arrest for the murder
of his double. In the end Burton and
Mercia go back to South America to
repair as far as possible the destruc-
ton Northcote, who was Prado the
outlaw, had wrought.
Another Mans Shoes" resembles
Vance's "The Brass Bowl" in style.

the education is one of the privileges
of the chautauqua.
In the eight years that this chau-
tauqua has been running, the town
has grown. Paved streets. a new libra

backed the chautauqua banding to-

that is for the good of the town.
That's how the chautauqua has helped.
