ant infirmities; new building complet-

tients, 25 of them now occupied. Good
nurses and attendants and the morale
never better than it has been for tbs
past year or more; less outside inter
ference and trouble by complaints
from without and within.
The recent loss Of the servants
quarters by fire has been settled by
the insurance companies and an am
pie insurance placed upon the rest o.
the buildings to cover any loss. But
little Inconvenience was caused by the
burning of the servants quarters a.
there is a cottage Oh the grounds
nearby, which was unoccupied, that
served all needs at the present time.
There were 80 deaths in 1919, 20 in

infractions of the rules. The Board
suspended one man indefinitely us he
assaulted another inmate the sec

Vote
FOR SMALL H0liS!::

Washington, Jan. 20-TWO kcntuc-
limits the membership and, as Il re
suit, takes from Kentucky one Of hel
districts. They are Representative
Ben Johnson, Fourth district, and
Representative A. b. Rouse, Sixth
district, both democrats. Representa-
tives Barkley, Fields, Langley, Ogden
Robson, Swope and Thomas voted
against the amendment.
The bill now goes to the Senate, but
advocates Of larger House have no
hope that the Republican Senate will
provide for a larger House by amend
ing the bill.
Only once before in history has
Congress failed to increase the mem
bership of the House following de
cennial census. That was following
the census of 1910, when a democra-
tic House provided for larger mem
bership, and its action was overrid
den by the Whig Senate.
The fact that Kentucky will have
have but ten congressional districts
after the next Congress instead of
its present eleven, means that Ken
lucky will have to reappOrtion the
state.
Unless Gov. Morrow calls a special
session this cannot be done until the
regular session in January, 1922 1t
also will mean that Kentucky will
lose a vote in the electoral college.
