Slavery has been abolished in this

may be no invalnntary servitude by

Yet we read in the newspapers of
Florida notices like this

for the lease of county convicts for

Said bids to b ereceived up to go o.
M, February Z, 1920, and all persons
desiring to bid for said prisoners can
at said time be present in person or
by attorney and submit their bids
therefor
These notices are given by the
county commissioners, but it is not
their fault 1t is the law of Florida.
These convicts are people who have
committed only small misdemeanors.
If they had committed larger crimes
-felonies-they would have been put
to work on the state farm under hui
name state guards, surrounded by ev-
cry comfort prison life can afford and
under the humane and kindly super
vision of Superintendent Bitch. But
these people committed only small
crimes. Therefore, they are county
convicts. Who bids! What do we
hear for this bunch? Who have you
your convicts, Mr.. Commits
sioner? Oh! we have twelve or fif-
zen able-bodied men-some white
mostly blacks. We have several
young men who have gone astray.
We have two white women, one old.

are entirely different folk.
GU can be sure that wherever our
modern phrases began it was because
someone found that all the old phras-

ruin this old world. All work and

THE FIRST WOMAN'S

To GAINESVILLE, Tenn, belongs the
honor of establishing the first exclu-
sive woman's bank in the United
States, bank owned, operated d.
rected. managed and janitored by
women, and located in building
owned by woman. The tyrant man
is completely ostracised from the
bank, except. Of course that he is
permitted to make deposits in the
Eank, and many of the male citizens
of GAINESVILLE are taking advantage Of
this privilege and lending the WON
ems bank their financial and moral
support. All the employees Of the
bank are women and no mere man Is
permitted to defile it's sacred pre-"
cincts, except he comes in the way Of
business, when he is welcomed OF
course.
Touching the ability of a woman to
keep secret about which there has

their plans all made and arrange
ments perfected weeks before any
inkling Of it was given to the public.
The bank has nine directors and
three officers-president, vice presi.
dent and cashier. It has an executive
committee to pass on all loans and
generally supervise the business. in
fact all the paraphernalia Of the most
approved banking business.
The capital stock is $4,000 divided
into shares Of 500 each. Each d.
rector was given her quota to dispose
OF and the entire stock was sold in a
single day. No person could purchase
more than two shares. Leading bust
ness men of the city took about one
third Of the stock and would hava
tak-n more If they had been permit
ted which indicates the attitude O.
the business men of the CITY toward
the bank.
The bank was opened for business
on Oct. 6, 1919, and the deposits on
the first day exceeded the banks can.

THE BATTLE AGAINST SLANG

Every once and so often somebody
starts anew the old battle against
slang. II sweeps through few news
paper columns, get a few Women's
Clubs all excited, published few
pamphlets and then retires again for
a brief rest. Perhaps a few people
were benefited and perhaps very
many more were not. But the very
fact that slang still seems to 60 on
forever at least shows that such cam
paigns are not highly successful.
The trouble is that slang reformers
go at it from the wrong angle. They
take it for granted that all slang is
dead language, the use Of which stul-
titles the mind Of the user, destroying
