TEASPOONS BIC

OUT JAIL WALL
County Prisoners Almost ES-
cape; Outer Wall of Jail
Will Not Stand Assault
With Aluminium Spoons.

Bernalillo county nearly lost one
side of her Jail and all of her pris-
oners when they almost got away
the other night by digging through
the poorly constructed stone walls
' It'll teaspoons. The work was dis
covered, however, before they
completed the job and they are
now all moved out of the bull pen
into the steel cages.
Armed with teaspoons and other
similar types of cutlery, the prls-
oners in the bull pen, which sur
rounds the steel cages, had reached
the point where in few minutes
more they could have pushed away
the stone sidewalks around two
of the windows and climbed out to
freedom, for a few minutes at
least
The construction of the Berna-
lilo county Jail Is such that a lit
tie brains and most anything larg-
er than a hair pin are all that are
really necessary for any prisoner
to have In order to gain his free
dom when once he is confined in
the bastile. That escapes are not
the rule instead of the exception,
is due entirely to the sheriff's de-
partment and the jailer keeping an
ever-watchful eye on the move
ments Of the prisoners.
Ordinary plaster is the interior
Of the bull pen and this apparently
offers but little resistance to les
eape-minded" prisoners. The
bunch which nearly got away re-
Gently scraped the plastering away
from around the bottom and lower
sides Of two or three windows
They then pulled, away a part of
the woodwork and found the out
side stone exposed and ready to
be worked on. The crumbly ce-
ment, which is between the stones,
and the almost equally crumbly
stones, offered but little resistance
to their teaspoons and at one win
dow, they were almost to point
where they could have kicked out
a few of the stones and then fol-
lowed them out and 80 gained their
freedom.

left them In the bull pen" The
sheriff also pointed out that it Is
much easier to keep the Jail sani-
tary when the prisoners are not so
crowded.
1t will cost considerable to repair
the damage done by the prisoners
and will probably be some time be-
fore this is done and they can
be left out in the bull pen with
fair prospect of them not getting
out--if they are closely watched
by the TALLER and the deputy sher-
ifs.

important matters of discussion at
the conference" Miss Burke stated
Yesterday. Physical education
and the installation of we'll equip

This is partly a result of the les

ALL-THE-YEAR CLUB
OF LOS ANGELES is
DEFENDING CLIMATE

Los Angeles Calf, July 10
Residents of southern California
are organized in protest over the
generally accepted theory that
their famed climate is attractive
only during the winter months
They are indignant over the con-
tinued information that the balmy
winters must of necessity mean
terrifically hot summer. They want
the world to know that the same
natural causes that rob the winter
of all discomfort also Keep the
summer cool. ..,
The protestants got into action
through what is known as the Al,
the Year club. This is composed
of leading citizens, pledged to tel
all their friends and the rest OF
the world that southern California
is more charming during the sum-
mer months than at any other sea-
son.
The curious part of the new
movement is that although the ma
tives enjoyed the appealing sum-
mer climate, there was no official
data on the subject ineligible to
the layman until DR.. Ford A. Car
penter, a. recognized authority on
meteorology, assembled rev
| facts to back up the general state
ment. .-.-,
For instance, the rainfall record
for forty years shows that picnic
can be planned any day from May
| to October, without having to con-
slider the fall of rain. The vacation
list who revels in showers VIII nave
to bring his own rain, as the aver
age is one day in June, none IN
| July or August and one in sep
TENDER, when rain may be ex-
pected.
Although there are many techni-
cal terms used in explaining why
southern California Is not hot In
summer, the facts as presented TO
the layman's understanding are
that the mountains and sea con-
troll the climate. The japan cur
rent stabilizes the temperature
where it touches southern Califor-
mia, as it varies only seven de-
grees between winter and summer
During the day the westerly breez-
es drift In from the cool waters or

process is reversed as the cool air
from the mountains blows toward
the relatively warmer seashore:
This cooling process is perpetual
during the summer. as there are no
storms to disturb 1t.
Another scientific phenomenon
is the "volo" cloud. This was
named by the Mexicans. "Volo"
means veil. It is a mighty sun
shade high in the air. in existence
during the summer, which offers
protection from the suns hottest
rays.
The All the Year club have
planned national campaign to tell
the world what they have discov-
cred about climatic conditions
They are going to explain the rain
less days and the nights which al
ways call for blankets, in addition
to the many scenic attractions OF
southern California.
