record as q perfect prisoner, his
spirit was subdued but not broken,
and under these conditions he was
starting his sixth year OF penal
service.
Last week he was paroled. The
pardon board after studying all the
phases of his case, decided to allow
him his liberty on condition that his
conduct as citizen was vouched for
by some responsible citizen.
Are You a Bolshevist?
People all over the state will be
saying. ALLEN stole $4,000 and now
he is out, free man. Anybody can
afford to stay in prison five years
for $18,60O a year." And the boil
shevists and the near-bolshevists and
those who are suitable material to
make into bolshevists, will agree
that it was wrong to extend any de-
gree of mercy or Christian charity
or anything that would stay the
growth of disappointment and bitter
ness that inevitably arises in mans
bosom when he has done his best to
atone for wrong and continued the
doing thru what to him seemed as
long as all the other years Of his life.

this brave battle right in the home
town where they had lived and pros
pered, fallen from grace and favor
and suffered in deep disgrace. In
the midst of all those handicaps, this
brave woman stepped down from
luxury to servitude, from a position
of power and social leadership to the
station where her former associates
would tilt their noses and pass her
by with marble stare. One. son was
old enough to carry a gun and KNAPP
sack, and he went over there. Near
ly year after the armistice he
reached home again, and his father
was still number at the prison, but
had won classification as q trusty
and was manager of q state farm op-
Grated entirely by convicts. 1t was
known what day the soldier boy
would arrive home, and an effort
was made to have the father given
permission to drive over from the
farm to the station and greet the
boy and the family and eat dinner
with them and then drive back to
the farm and become number
again, but the rules of the prison
would not permit this, and he re-

punishment to him than long con-
finement, to some men. As. he was
passing out of the court room to the
prison where he would cease to exist
as an individual and be known mere

bye to the reporters who were to

passed on into oblivion.
Some Current SANDER
A couple Of years after that some
body that we regarded as reliable
told us that this embezzler's wife
was living in an expensive suite Of
rooms at the Owyhee hotel and had
been ever since he went to prison,
and the supposition was that she was
living on money that he had taken
from the state. We made inquiries
at Boise and were informed that she
was working for living, and our
informant said he believed she was
conducting q boarding house, but

Philadelphia, Sept. 4.-High tribute

third in war work at home.

great contribution to the success of

were less than deaths from battle
wounds.
'In the SPANISH American and

battle death rates were made equal.
In this war we have changed that.
This was due to the fact that the
medical profession, as in the chem

professions forgot their former aotiv-
tiles to put on the uniform and serve
the nation.
