The Shacsles OF The World is the
title of the lecture to be given here
Friday evening, April 20, 1917 as
the last number of this seasons local
lrcaam course. In this lecture Chap
lain Ioagher tells a very interesting
and convincing way where cur army
of criminals con from and row to
reduce shs Size Of this army.
The Democrat Toledo. Iowa,
Marh i 1917. contains tie
following account of Mr. Lougher's
lecture there.
The lecture given by Chaplain
L0ughg Friday night was pronounced
. Of the best ever delivered here.
HIS subject was The Shaekles of the
World During the course of more
thai an hours talk he said some
startling things among which we note
as follows:
Crime seeks only to kill; Crime is
increasing in every state in the Uni
ted States: There were 5000 murders
la 1916; The present system of pun
isbraent does not prevent crime; 80
out of every 100 go out of prison
worse than they went in; during 1916
467, GOO were convicted of crime,
the average sentence being thres
years which time he considered wasted
aGss..hh;Hg the expense; the
prison army is constantly being re-
cruited from the poorly disciplined
homes, saloons, the reform schools
and the u~ncensored picture shows;
Take the convict problem Of poll
tics. This has been done in Cali
fornia and Michigan. In these states
a fair wage is paid for an honest days
work. Out of his earnings he must
support his family, and what is left,
if any, is banked. In Michigan the
sos convicts were turned out on farms
without guards and only two escaped.
Last year the convicts raised
$50, 600 worth Of early peas arN
$1,000 worth Of string beans on
eighty acres. During 1916 the earn
ings of the convicts of Michigan
amounted to $1s5, 600, $78, 600 of
which went to the state.
These are remarkable even astound-
ing statements, and we have neither
dispositions or the means Of disputing.
These are but a few Of the things ne
said, and it will do us all good to
ponder deeply this very strong lecture.
