was the property OF Dan Hills, col

living i'm Columbia up until a short
time ago when he moved here and
wis occupying one of his four
nc uses. IL is stated that the fire
began in the house situated i'm the
western corner of the property. A
light west wind was blowing at the
time the house caught and this
wind was the means of spreading
the flames from house to house
until the row of six houses was
ahame. The fire department was
sent for but no assistance was rem
dered by them owing to the houses
beng outside of the city limits.

sentenced by the city court to
terms at hard labor, are now wear
ing the stripes and shaclles and
are being regularly exercised i'm
what work they are able to do on

The names of Kennedy and Rus

q few days ago, and for the two
whiskey charges to which they
both plead guilty when on trial in
the city court. they were each given

Frank Hill is serving q thirty day
sentence as a result of his convic-
tion on q drunk and disorderly
charge.
The precedent Of working white
men on the Sumter county chain
gang has now been established with
the putting to work of this trio. So
far no provision had been made for
working of white convicts. The
men sleep in the county Jail each
night and the work done by them in
the day time serves as good
health measure and toward keeping

OF the survey is made today by Dr.
Frank j. O'Brien, who has his Of
flee at Harper College, on the
University campus. Some startling
facts are revealed by the survey
states DR.. O'Brien.
The mental survey of the state
was started last January. No cost
to the state has been involved in
this survey. DR.. O'Brien stated
that bill will be introduced i'm the
1922 legislature. starting in Jan
uary, to provide changes AMI i'm
provements i'm the states system of
dealing with it's dependents. fifty
per cent Of whom. he says the sur
vcy shows, are dependent because
of mental backwardncss.
The survey shows that there are
approximately ten thousand feeble
minded people in the state. The
home for the feeble minded, at
Clinton, is the states only insti-
tuition for their care now. It's
capacity is 100. The present enroll
ment is over that number, and the
institution is crowded, with a
waiting list of over 100.
DR.. O'Brien states that the sur
Vey shows that from two to four
per cent Of the seven thousand
school children OF the state are
feeble minded. Only three cities in
the state have schools for specially
training these children.
