URGES FAIR PLAY
FOR PAR0LED MEN.
SUPERINTENDENT vASALY SAYS
MOST PARoLED PRISONERS
MAKE GOOD

Minneapolis Tribune (17):-Paroled
prisoners should not be held responsible
for crime waves as statistics show that
most ofenses are committed either by
young men, who previously have had
a clear record, or by men who were in
trouble years before, Charles E. Vasaly
superintendent Of the State Reforma-
tory at ST. Cloud, informed the mem
bers of the Lions club yesterday noon
in Hotel Radisson.
"We paroled 80 men from the re-
formatory last year, and but seven of
these violated their paroles,'' Mr..
iVasaly explained. - Several of these
seven were returned to the institution
for minor reasons. The overwhelming
majority Of paroled men always sue
ceed.''
Before man is paroled from the
institution, he must be an inmate for
at least II months, Mr.. Vasaly said.
When he enters, he is placed in the
second grade, and, if after five months
he has no reports against him he is
promoted. to the first grade. He is eli
gible for parole at the end of six
months in the first grade.
History is Traced
!"We trace the history of every in
mate from the cradle to the time he
entered the institution,'' Mr.. Vasaly
said. "We- write to his parents, his
pastor and those who have known him
before. We seek to know all there is
about him, physically, mentally, spirit
ually and morally. We believe that
we have worked out the most complete
system in the United States for fol-
lowing out the. history Of man. This
information is digested and presented
to the Board Of Parole when the pris-
oner's application for parole comes
up ..~. 49, F.,
The purpose Of the ,reformatory
should be largely vocational, Mr.. Vas
ally said. At present, he said, the re-
formatory does not offer half enough
trades, and he asked for support Of
the Lions club in his efforts to extend
it's facilities. Probably the greatest
need in this direction is an auto re-
pair shop, he declared.
Expert in Auto Work
"We have many gentlemen in the
institution who have had much to do
with automobiles, Mr.. Vasaly assert.
ed. "We believe they could turn their
talents into useful fields when they
leave the institution if. they were
trained to become expert repairmen.' - +

BOARD TO RECEIVE
BIDS FOR PAVING.
COMMISSIONERS FIX DEC. 81 AS
DATE FOR BIDS ON PAVING
= RoYALTON ROAD A .

y A meeting Of the board Of county
commissioners that was Of more than
ordinary interest to the people Of
Little Falls and Morrison county was
held at the court house Wednesday
morning. At this meeting, the first
steps toward the paving of the Jeffer'
son Highway from Royalton to Little
Falls were taken. <" K
G. M. Babcock, state highway com.
missioner, and = Messrs. Mullen and
Webster Of the highway department,
were here for the meeting, the purpose
Of which was to set a date for the re-
,ceiving Of bids for the paving: 4
motion was made and unanimously car
ried that County Auditor MGNairy be
instructedHto advertise for bids, to be
received at a meeting of the board to
be held at the court house on Wednes-
day, December 21, at 2 p. m., the bids
to be for the paving Of Minnesota
Trunk Highway No. q from the Ben.
ton county line to Little Falls, a dis
tance of 1913 miles. The route Of same
from the Benton county line is straight
through Royalton and almost due north
on the east side Of the Northern Pacific
right-of-way to Little Falls, entering
Lite Falls on First street southeast.
AS the result of this action by the
county board paving Of this stretch in
1929 is almost an assured fact. When
the bids have been let, the board will
proceed to issue the 100000 in bonds
as authorized by law. The state will
reimburse the county for the interest
paid on these bonds up to per cent
Iou
due. Bids arc to be received by the
Benton county board on December 9
for the payinfk Of the stretch in that
county from Ahere the present paving
ends to the county line on the north.
The Benton county board is going to
issue $250,0O0 bonds, if necessary, for
this purpose. This makes the total for
the two counties $450,O0O and the
state pays an. equal amount, making
a total of, 100000 available, which it
is thought is more than is needed. Al
though there is nothing definite as to
what might be done with any balance
remaining from Morrison county's
100000, Commissioner Babcock has
indicated that if there is substantial
sum left the paving will be continued
on up toward Brainerd as far as the
money will reach.
According to the members of the
highway department the bids Oh all
classes of road work lately have been
about 80 per cent less than a year ago.
The condition Of the old river road
from Royalton has been very bad in
places for some time, and as the state
has taken over. this road for mainten;,
ance as detour road, Commissioners
Babeock was approached in regard to
fixing it up and graveling it. He stat
ed that he has no authority to gravel
it but gave the assurance that the bad
spots would be fixed up and that the
road would be kept in good condition.
He pointed out that when the paved
highway is completed, all the heavy
traffic will be taken off from this road
and maintenance will be much easier,
but that when the road was no longer
used asa detour by the state, it would
be left in proper condition for travel.

Miss Naomi Randall, pianist, gave
the first program for the student sec.
tion of the Musical Art club at Maud
Moon Weyerhaeuser hall Wednesday
evening, to fair sized audience. Miss
Randall came to Little Falls a few
weeks ago and started class in piano
instruction and consequently was a
comparative stranger to a majority of
the club members. She made decided
hit with the audience and they only
regretted that the program was so
short.
In her playing Miss Randall dis
played splendid technique and keen
knowledge of the art Of Interpretation.
Her grace and charming personality al
so appealed to her hearers. -Four groups
Of selections were played, all by lead
ing composers. Her Chopin group, Pre-
lude 0p. As and Ballade Op. AZ, seemed
to be especially well received.

PUBLIC ASKED NOT TO USE
SMALL ENVELOPES AND CARDS

A bulletin issued by the postal de.
partment asks the public to cooperate
with the department. in speeding up
mail service during the holiday season
by avoiding the use Of small envelopes
and cards for holiday greetings. Pos
tai work is very much retarded on ac-
count of the inconvenience in handling
these small pieces of mail. Addresses
are obliterated by the cancellation
mark; the envelopes and cards are
too small to be run through the facing
table and this necessitates three extra
landings; they are awkward to put
through the cancelling machine; diff
fculty in sorting causes delay; liabil-
,ity to loss or damage is greater with
these as the y do not fit the letter
packages and cannot be tied securely.
The crew that has been at work sew
eral weeks filing hole below the dam,
