MANY IMPROVEMENTS
ARE MADE AT JAIL
Interior il Getting Its First Touch of
Paint i'm Eight
Years.

The interior of the county jail is
at present undergoing a complete
renovation as far as decorating is
concerned. Since Sheriff Charles f.
Bailey entered office many improve
ments have been made in the Jail,
the most notable one being the in
stallation of sanitary features which
add greatly TO the convenience of
the prisoners.
The painting now being done was
recommended by the grand jury. 1t
had been eight years since the Jail
has been redecOrated. The color
scheme employed was determined by
Sheriff Bailey himself.
Formerly the bars were painted a
dull gray, which il is said, proved
an eyesOre for the prisoners. Now
the upper part of the cells are be-
ing painted in white enamel with a
black trimming. making the Jail very
attractive as far as jails go
The work is being done both in
the criminal department and in the
misdemeanor wards. The women's
department and insane wards are
also undergoing the same cleaning.
Conditions have been steadily
hettered at the Jail during the past
year. In former years a none too
ample supply of disinfectant soap
and water allowed the place to be-
come germ filed, with the result
that it was in very insanitary con-
ditiOn.
In order to keep the white enamel
from being SCARED, new orders have
gone forth. The prisoners are not
now allowed to retain lead pencils,
being supplied with these only in the
event that they desire 10 write let
ters.
