This year is said to be the hardest
in years for a student to work his way
through the u. W., and this situation
is apparently keeping many out of
school. This is due to the general
industrial depression throughout the
country, according to officials in
charge of students employment. Dur
ing recent years it has been COM
parativeIy easy for students, both
men and women, to obtain part time
work to help pay expenses, but the
plentitude Of jobs is gone, temporarily
at least. The u. w. Y. M. G.. A. which
has always acted as gO-between to
help employer and student meet, has
been forced to turn away large num-
bers of young men. In a great per
centage of these cases, lack of work
necessitates leaving school. The
lunch room and restaurant jobs are,
of course, as plentiful as ever, but
the supply of students for this kind
of employment far exceeds the de-
mand.
Upwards Of $23,500 is on deposit in
the banks at Waupun awaiting the
discharge of prisoners now in the
state prison. This was the statement
of former Warden Towne in discus
sing the Wisconsin idea in paying
prisoners. Each prisoner at Wau-
pun receives three cents a day for
each days work the first year" said
Towne after the first year this pay
is reduced to one cent a day. The
highest amount that | remember any
prisoner receiving upon discharge
was close to 500. This was due,
however, to the fact that we allow
liberal pay for extra and overtime
work in various capacities. The re-
suit of all this is that no prisoner
leaves the gates without at least So
in addition to his free citizens
clothes. In the winter, we, of course,
furnish an overcoat in addition At
all times he receives free transporta-
ton back to the town where he was
convicted and sentenced to Waupun."
While many states give a man but a
five-dollar bill when he leaves prison,
regardless of the time he has spent,
it is said the Wisconsin system has
the approval of all prison authorities
1t furnishes a sufficient sum of money
in many cases, so that men and wo-
men can take care of themselves for
the period of REIMBURSEMENT following
release after long confinement.
