ORGANIZED SOCIETY

Woe unto him that departs from
the way of organized society.
Nature elects that man shall make
laws and adapt customs Tor tho Just
conduct OF life. and the individual
who goes counter to these brings
about his own Ntfacement
The process may at times be seem
ing slow. but ii IS at all times sure.
Here are two illustrations of de-
feat, but there are like Instances in
all places and at all times:
An aged merchant was murde red
and robbed in his home at Indian
apOiis.
His wifi. got one look at the muir
derer-robber as ho was leaving the
house.
Her rather vague description was
the only clue.
Yet by a seeming trivial action
upon the criminals part and beyond
the human powers to discern, he
was caught. tried. convicted and
executed.
The murderer left the night OF the
crime for Chicago with his common
law wife
He read OF his crime next morn
{ ing in the local papers and told his
wife that they must keep away from
hotels and get a room in a private
house.
They turned to the liner adver-
tisements in the newspaper.
Out OF the hundreds OF rooms Of
fercd for rent in all parts Of a city
of more than 1000. 600 population
the particular one Of their selection
proved the murderer's undoins.
1t happened TO be the home Of a
( member Of the Chicago detective
force
After q few weeks the murderer's
wife grew friendly with the land
lady, The detectives wire-merely
mentioning that her husband had
gotten into trouble in indianapolis.
The detective sent a description or
the roomer in his house to Indian
apotis and upon which he wss ar
rested and afterwards identified by
the wife OF the murdered man.
After tho murderer'S execution his
wife in confession brought all the
facts including the incident Of their
selecting a room.
About year ago young man
was arrested in Detroit for steal
ing watch OF small value from q
doctor whom he had consulted.
No proof save the fact that the
watch was on the doctors desk when
the young man called and 1t was
some after he left.
The police Judge. as a matter Of
bluff. told the suspect that he WAS
going to give him a fine OF 5000 3 nd
a sentence OF thirty days in the
workhouse. but that hs would remit
the fine II the suspect would tell
the Whereabouts OF tho watch.
The prisoner turned over pawn
ticket that he supposed was for the
doctors watch.
But it proved to be for diamond
pin that associated the prisoner
with one OF the boldest holdups in
the history OF Detroit.
He had two pawn tickets, one for
the watch and the other for the pin
he simply got them mixed.
He Is now serving time.
There are criminals that have not
been caught.
But 1t is only a question OF time
II they continue In crime-goins
counter to the. ways OF organized
society.
There seems to be a destiny to
this end.
There are many men serving time
for crimes for which they were con-
victed, but these same men commit
ted many crimes for which they
were never even spprehended. so

We have five large and we'll equipped state tuberculosis sanatoria now, and a corps of tuberculosis ex- perts and general practitioners in Connecticut of which any state might well feel proud, and we are develop ing effective attacks on the disease through the tuberculosis nurses who go into the homes, schools, and fac tories, detect the suspected cases at an early stage. get them to the fam fly doctor, in time to save lives, show other members of the family how to avoid contracting the disease, and in- struct the patient how to live in or der that he may not be a danger and a menace to the community. The fund is used in financing the free clinics for the needy tuberculosis pa- tients who might otherwise wait until their disease had progressed so far that hope of recovery was gone.
 ''The State Tuberculosis commits sion is sending it's superintendents and other experts to assist the dis pensary heads and general medical
 
 cases as these. Yet the fund must be raised annually if we are to have the dspensaries and clinics to which to send our patients.
 'In different parts of the state open air schools and preventoria are being started and financed from the fund. Tn Bridgeport the preventori- um which was established last sum- mer at a cost of only about $3,000 took care of some 30 children who were suspect cases.
 ''In South Manchester an almost ideal open air school has been main tained for years from the fund. Sim liar schools and preventoria have been started in other places in the state and have been taken over proud ly by the municipality as @ part of the local school or health system. All this is direct life-saving work.
 Unless the public fully" under stands the value to every community in the state Of the work which is be- ing done with the fund, there is 8 danger that the sum which is being asked for may not be raised"
 Preliminary reports at the office of the State Tuberculosis commission today indicated that, as the campaign paSSeu LHe naIl-Wdy lIaTk, oHly dpouI $30,00O had been subscribed. The commission in June prepared a pre- liminary budget of $100,o00 for need ed tuberculosis work in 1920, which was to be financed from this fund. In October the budget was raised to $125,000 when it seemed desirable for the health of the state to increase the number of tuberculo- sis nurses which are needed to cope with the disease.

BILLION INVESTED
 IN FARM MORTGAGES
More Than This Amount of Life In. Surance Company's Assets Are
 So Utilized.

New York, Dec. 6.-Information of life insurance company asses5 are now invested in farm mortgage loans and that an increasingly larger pro- portion of policy holders funds is being invested in furthering agriculture in this way was presented to the AsSocia- tiOn of Life Insurance Presidents here by Louis Breiling, treasurer of the Union Central Life Insurance Society of Cincinnati. Such investment, he ar gued, will be a leading and positive factor in the pending agricultural re- adjustment from war to peace condi- tions.
 Life insurance companies which, either in whole or in part, invest their annual increase of assets in farm loans," he said. "are not only true to the interests of their policy holders but are also of inestimable service to the country at large in contributing to the agricultural development by stim ulating increased production of the necessities of life, grain and meat for food hides for shoes, wool and cotton for clothing and hemp for rope to strangle the I. w.

Both boys and men now appear on

SCHOOL CHILDREN ARE
CONSERVING PAPER

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Waste
paper, saved by public school children
in Cleveland, Is being turned into
books for soldiers, according to in
formation given by the public librarian
of that city to the American Forestry
Association.
The school children, it was stated,
take old magazines and newspapers to
school once a week. where they are
baled and sold to the highest bidder.
Save bale of paper" is the slogan.
The zeal of the children has been
stimulated by the starting of competi-
ton to see which school can collect
the most paper. After the soldiers
libraries have been equipped, the plan
is to purchase books for the libraries
of Cleveland and continue the good
work.
F'This is.a fine paper-saving scheme"
says the American Forestry Associa-
ton. ut is an easy and convenient
method of collecting it and has the
added value Of teaching the children
the value of conservation. The use
of old paper helps to save our forests
and it saves coal, for every pound of
paper represents from one to three
pounds of coal used in it's manufac-
ture. 1t is hoped that many other
cities will adopt the Cleveland plan,
"Save a bale of paper"
