SIM BLITCH STICKS
TO HIS COLORS
Raiford. september I'D.

Raiford, September 23rd.
Editor st. Augustine Record:
l note in referring to the article I
sent you. which you were kind enough
TO publish, you state that / agreed
with you. line for line, and word for
word. That is true, yet there is as
much difference in the way they were
used, as there is between daylight and
Garkness.-
We have had the fellow who stands
off and waits for something TO happen
and then says, told you so, since the
beginning of time, and l presume we
will have him with US until the end
OF time; however, in the face of this,
men have from time to time gotten
out of the old rut, stopped drifting
with the tide, and accomplished some
thing.
For three years we have been run
ming the farm without guards and
guns, with a minimum of escapes, and
practically no trouble whatever, and
our organization grows stronger each
day.
When / took charge of this institu-
ton and began treating the prisoners
humanely, showed that l was on the
level with them in handling them with
good discipline, and in receiving the
re sponse from them with / did, said
the day would come when no prisoners
would leave the state farm except
honorably; that is, served their time
CT received pardon. / am more fully
convinced of that statement today
than / was three years ago when l
made it, and the fact that this is the
receiving prison. where all men are
handled for several days, Immediately
after leaving jails, and with an aver
age population of 500, who are check
ed out each day in dozen or more
crews. working in radius of three
miles, and have only had thus far four
escapes, and are not short man to
day for this year, is further proof 70
me that the statement viii hold good.
The trouble with you, Mr.. Editor
is the trouble with all the doubling
Thomases. They hare never visited
tie farm, and they don't know how we
handle the prisoners, and they won't
: believe men who have been here and
have seen what we are doing. If you
could see Us in action, you would see
the law being indicated, society pro
tected and prisoners treated humane.
Is. Yours very truly,

ROBBERY
SATURDAY
EVENING
Dr. ]. H. Dunn Struck Down and his
Pockets Gone Through, Almost
ON Main Business Street

Saturday night about o'clock as
Dr.. j. H Dunn was leaving his vet
erinary stable on West Fort King ave
nue., just two blocks from the court
house, he was struck on the head with
saDdbag or some other soft instru-
uent, as he was locking the stable
door.
DR.. Dunn says that his door locks
with q paddock and hasp and necessi-
iates STOPPING over to fasten II. He
was leaning over fastening the lock
when some one behind him said,
Hello, Doc," DR.. Dunn answered,
Hello" and turned his head partly
around when something struck him
and that is the last he knew of that
part Of the hold-up.
When he came to his senses again,
he said, he was lying huddled up
against the door and his first move
was to throw his arm out TO raise
himself. When he did his fingers
came in contact with his pocketbook
lying on the sidewalk, open and empty.
DR.. Dunn does not know how much
money was in the pocketbook but
thinks about $40.
Just as DR.. Dunn turned his head
- answer the mans salutation, he
says he caught a feeting glimpse Of
his assailant and says the best he
could describe him was that he was
tall and thin and there was a short
woman with him who wore a long veil
over her face. He says the man was
either a white man or a very light
mulatto.
Dr. Dunn's straw hat also shows a
mark as if it had been cut with a
sharp knife, but Dr. Dunn says if
there was a knife in the deal it was
while he was unconscious.

CLEANUP SQUAD COMING

When the cleanup squad reaches
oeaIa Friday, TO get action on the
claims of veterans of the world war,
its biggest problem viii be TO get in
touch with every ex-service man in
this territory, who has a right to gov
etnmental compensation.
The squad is composed of experts
from the various government bureaus,
the Red Cross and the American Je-
gion. They are familiar in every de-
tail with the workings of the war
risk insurance act, and various feat
ures of the different plans of hospital
treatment, medical care and rehabili-
tation work in general. As soon as
they establish personal touch with the
veterans, they are prepared to put
machinery in motion at once to get
for them what is coming to them from
the government. In this work they
have every assurance of whole-heart-
ed cooperation by the authorities IN
Washington.
The plan of campaign of the squad
contemplates the avoidance of lengthy
correspondence and annoying, time
killing red tape, by getting at first
hand all information as to each indi-
vidual veterans case and the machin-
cry is we'll oiled to get results once
| it is put IN motion.
| However, the greatest problem that
lconfronts the workers is the estab-
lishnent of personal contact with the
men they would serve. Many of the
veterans, in lots of cases. those most
deserving of governmental aid, are
/ iiliterates. They don't understand
Ecyen the meaning of compensation,

If they knew that the squad is right
at their doors to get it for them
For this reason, the members of the

titled to aid, get in touch with hin
