the cause why countless numbers were so
confined. In the four years he had been
chaplain he had discovered that there were
other and greater causes. In making out the
application Of the prisoners for parole be
had noticed that almost invariably that ell
Their the father or mother was dead or had
become estranged to each other. This was
true in nine-tenths of the cases and hence
he believed that this was one of the great
causes of crime.
Another discovery was that most Of the
men were afflicted with Chronic indispo-
sition to exertion." which was commonly
called laziness. He stated his belief that
where the use of liquor sends one man to
prison, laziness sends ten. 1t is fact
that vast majority OF the men in prison
have never been taught to work-this being
their misfortune and not their fault.
third cause was very limited education &C"
quirements. Last year bunch OF % men
were sent in at the same time Oh these
five could neither read nor write in any
language. and two could only read or write
little in their own language. which was
something other than English. Less than
one per cent. of the men at Thomaston have
any college training. Out of the 200 men
at Thomaston it is doubtful if 40 have
High school education and the speaker sad
he would not hesitate to set the number as
low as 20. He doubted if 40 of the 200
could solve simple problem in fractions.
1t is evident that education and crime do
not go hand in hand.
A small percentage of the prisoners come
from good homes, but these homes invari-
ably lacked in proper discipline. He cited
various cases that had come under his OBJ
servation to uphold this viewpoint.
Prison life should seek to remedy the
things that brought the men there though
this is contrary to ZEE prevalent opinion
that men were sent to prison to be pun
ished and not reformed. and should contain
some OF the things that home provides in
the discipline line.
When many men are sent to prison tHf'''
commitment papers read with hard labor
Mr.. Allen did not believe that this should
be part o the punishment but ought TO
be made one of the conditions or ways by
which a man could fit himself for liberty.
Conditions at the prison are not right to
make a man want to work. They should

Of their earnings sent to their families, who
oftentimes are bling punished more than
the man himself.
The speaker described the educational
work being done among the men ana the
good accomplished thereby. The speaker
closed with Il strong plea for the man when
he comes out OF prison and commended the
parole law. At the close the speaker was
given hearty applause.
