Offenders "Fined" to Save;
They Get So They Like It

In the police courts Of New
York state 1t Is getting to be a
common practice to sentence
minor offenders to a term Of
saving, and in Syracuse last year
$1,000 was invested In this way
in war savings stamps, all later

help their families. At Niagara
Falls, when David Frederick
was placed on probation six
months ago and ordered to give
the probation officer $12 week
for war savings stamps, he COM
planned bitterly. At the end of
six months he received $2S0.5O
worth of stamps, and he volun-
tarily placed himself on indef-
mite probation, promising to
bring In $40 a week to continue
his savings investment.

Numerous Amusement Attractions.
AT Benton Harber, Mich. there n a
queer religious sect known as the Is.
raelite House of David. The men do
not believe In BARRIERS and permit their
hair and whiskers to grow to their
shoulders. Their community offers
many unique attractions. but by far
the greatest Of them all is a long,
haired and much-be-whiskered base.
ball team.
In addition to being an excellent
playing aggregation, the baseball team
Is one of the greatest attractions in
Michigan. Its catcher Is king and its
shortstop is crown prince. Since no
lsraelite is allowed to shave or cut his
hair, the players have flowing locks,
frequently extending to their waist,
and some Of them have boards that
cover their chests. Black, except in
so far as the hair is concerned, is con.
sidered a badge Of mourning, and no
player Is even permitted to wear
black shoes. All the shoes are made
especially for them, and are tan col.
ored. Even black tape may not be
put around the handles of the bats.
Big Crowds at Games.
The Israelites have an excellent ball
park with well-kept diamond, and
back of it a covered grandstand, which
can accommodate more than 1000
spectators. So as not to interrupt the
daily activities Of the members of the
community, all the games are played
on Sundays, and people flock to Ben
ton Harbor from all the neighborine
towns and cities.
When autumn comes and the base
ball season Is over, all the members o.
the House of David team 60 to thu
lumber camps, where they keep il
training for the following summer
baseball contests.
The House of David was establishe,
in 1902 by King Benjamin with the as
sistance Of his wife, Queen Mary TIL
king and his tribe came, originally
| from Australia. They believe tina

King David and his followers asser
have wonderful health-giving prope
