oners in the federal prison in Atlanta
just naturally won't stand for. ac-
cording to Logan P. Martin, a man
who served eight years in the prison.
Every man in that prison knows
ten thousand times as much about re-
pentance as any preacher that ever
lived" says Martin, and the story of
the prodigal son conveys no lesson to
their minds and hearts. If preacher
addressing them in the prison chapel
should happen to get launched on
either of these stories the men shut
him off. They cough, scrape their feet
and otherwise drown his discourse.
The prison authorities can't do any
thing. There aren't enough dungeons
t, put all the men in solitary confine-
ment at once"
The thing the prisoners relish most
OF all is music, Martin further de-
clares. And strange to say, they would
rather hear Miss Ruth Oppenheim, an
Atlanta girl with sweet and simple
voice, sing her songs than to listen
to the famous Geraldine Farrar, whom
they have heard on several occasions
when she came to Atlanta with the
Metropolitan Opera Company, And
they prefer another Atlanta girl, Miss
Mildred Park, who sings them Rock
of Ages" than the immortal Caruso,
with his Incompatible sob song from
Pagliacci.
