GARDINER WOMAN
WRITING BOOK ON =.
PRISON REFORM

Gardiner Me-, Jan. 18.-Following
in the footsteps of her famous parents.
Samuel and Julia Ward Howe, their
daughter. Mrs. Laura A. Richards Is
at work on the most serious novel she
has written. the name Of which Is
"Pippin," and in which she sets forth
her theories regarding prison reform.
Mrs. Richards is champion OF
Thomas Mott Osborne. deposed ward
en- Of Sing Sing. and she declares his
Mutual Welfare League to be the most
important piece of prison reform IN
many years.
For the first time she gives to her
readers, through the medium OF her
hero jailbird, her ideas as to what
must be done to save men from life
of crime and sordidness.
ALMOST from her infancy, Mrs. Rich
ards heard the question OF prisons DIS
cussed seriously for her father was
the pioneer in America of the race OF
workers for the -downtrodden. Dr.
Howe founded in Boston society for
the assistance Of discharged convicts,
and his fife was one continued tgnt
for better prison conditions.
From her youth up. Mrs. Richards
thought about 1t. and now. in TINS
book which is soon to appear from the
presses of Appleton and Company, she
sets forth her ideas.
| Mrs. Richards is the author of in
Vulnerable stories, all of which nave
been as popular as they are brilllant'
Her book, Two Noble Lives the
fascinating story of her noted parents,
is perhaps the best work on Samuel
and Julia Ward Howe that there Is
This is, however, only one of Mrs.
Richards. many works, the full list OF
which embraces biographies. boy
stories. girl stories, novels, fairly tales
and short stories.
ITO me there is nothing more i'm
portant or worthy Of attention tnan
the problem of the prison and the
prisoner" she said today. She Is a
serious, charming lady, with fine gray
hair. and with a CHEEKY smile and a
genial handshake. No one could ever
mistake her for anyone else than one
of Mrs. Howe's daughters.
| my fathers deepest interest was in
the prisoner. He was pioneer, ana
he had to Withstand the criticism ana
the sneers that are the lot Of all those
| who think in advance Of their times
Today, it is a vindication to realize
| that the ideals he put forth, and the
dreams he dreamed, are being grad
ually-all too gradually-made into
realities.
The great lack in our prisons today
is misunderstanding There is be-
ing attacked and illuminated a man
in New York, Thomas Mott Osborne,
for no other crime than that he is
trying to help the criminal. 1t seems
incrediable, but 1t Is true. believe
most firmly in Mr.. Osborne, his great
work. his eventual success, and my
only hope Is that he may be permitted
to carry his work on and to show that
recognition Of the criminal as friend
in need Of help, rather than as a crea =
ture to be punished. Is the first step In
the direction of true prison reform"
