INMATES OF JAIL
ANXIOUS TO WORK
ON COUNTY ROADS
Men Wani to Get Work in the
Open, Prison Inspector
Learns

Prisoners in the county jail are
anxious to work on roads or bridge
repairs. Harry NJ. Fairchilds. one Of
the prison inspectors told the County
Commissioners to-day at an informal
conference Mr.. Fairchilds had heen
asked by County Commissioner aenty
NJ. Stine whether about six prisoners
could be furnished to make repairs to
the large bridge over the Swatara
creek just west of Hummelstown.
Mr.. Faifchilds said that many If
the prisoners in the Jail have COM
planned that they have nothing 10 do
and, with no great amount of .eXer-
else, have muscular pains. He sail
they have asked to be given work
outdoors and that the county can have
as many as are needed for the bridge
work and to make road improvements
on the Horseshoe pike from TIum-
melstown to Campbellstown.
Recently about twenty-five of the
prisoners were furnished to the state
TO make a new stretch of roadway at
lnglenook eliminating a dangerous
curve. Mr.. Fairchilds said the inn
provement was completed at no ad-
diticnal expense to the county, as the
prisoners were given additional
clothes and food by the state author
tiles and a guard was furnished. The
men who were put to work were paid
about 40 cents a day and the toral
cost of the labor to the state did not
exceed $3.50 day for each man cm-
ployed. efrecting a big saving. as la
borers at that time were being paid
as high as SIS a day.

FOR THE NATION
Tells Naval Com unit t e C
Country Should Build
Fleet For Future

Washington, Dec. 12.-Appropria-
tions to provide a navy for the Uni
ted States by 1925 as large as that
OF any other country. was urged to-
day by Admiral Badger of the General
Board OF, the Navy. before the House
Naval Committee.
Had the United States been fighting
alone in the present war; the ad-
miral said. its lack of ships would
have been serious and perhaps fatal,
because it has been learned that the
navy must be strong enough not only
to protect from invasion, but also
TO drive the enemy's navy from the
seas
He told the committee that the
country never has been and prob
ably never will be again. as we'll
prepared to build a powerful fleet as
1T present. Hundreds of thousands
OF men have become skilled in ship
yards which have been building ves-
sells for the merchant marine. he said,
and as fast as these yards are re-
leased from that work the training
and experience of these men should
be utilized to the greatest extent pos
sible.

Advice to the LoveIorn

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am II and have been friends with
young woman of the same age for
the past three years. She has been
going ABOUT for six months with u
young man of 81, Her mother Is
dead, and she has no one except her
father to advise her. Her father ap-
proves of the young man.
Now, Miss Fairfax, my friend has
asked me to question the young man
and find out If he intends to continue
going about with her. / would like
you to tell me whether 1t Is proper
for. me, as her rlost confidential
friend. to do this under the circum-
stances.
Your friend is very much mistaken
in asking you TO do this for her. and
the young man might very properly
resent such interference. AS your
friend is only II she Is still too young
to think of marriage. and for the pres
ent | should say that II is wiser for
her to pursue her friendships with
young men without turning heI
thoughts too impatiently in that one
direction.
