WHERE THE TROUBLE LIES

The Marquette Mining Journal in
discussing a proposal OF one OF the
legislators TO restrict a prison war.
den's term 10 five years makes the
following very pat observation on
the seat OF the trouble with state in
stltutions as they are run by the state
today
THE legislatures contribution 10
offectNe institutional managments
has been pitifully small one. A fur
ry over some institution has been an
episode OF nearly every session. Two
years ago Il was the Home for Girls
at Adrian; this year II Is the Ionia
reformatory. But the legislature has
never thoughtfully set itself to the
task OF evolving a better plan for in
stiututional management than the one
in vogue II has taken no measures
for continuing survey Of the man+
agement OF state institutions, so that
when its successor met IL could have
some dependable knowledge OF how
they had been conducted. II has been
concerned only with the occasional
episode in institutional life that has
forced the affairs OF some one instit
ution on its attention. 1t has given
them conventional attention on the
biennial junkets. voted their approp-
riations usually too much shorn
and that has been the end OF its inter
terest. For any constructive thought
that the Legislature has given to their
management, II is a wonder that the

Jim's talk about the fieetness OF

mind a story OF the razor back hog

Kansas was experiencing one OF It's

up everything eatable about the place

one morning he started out 10 butcher
the hog as a last resort But, the hog
didn't propose 10 be slaughtered. He
lead the settler merry chase for an
hour or so Finally he approached
the dug-out. the door OF which was
open. and the settler conceived the
cornering OF the hog in the house so
he rushed after the animal which
made straight for the door into the
house and with a bound leaped thru
the opening that the glass had been
removed from.
The farmer stopped in the doorway
and gazed dejectedly through the OPP
ening at the fast disappearing hog.
Finally he pulled himself together

Girl Prefers Police
Station to Beatings
AT Hands Of Mother

Chicago, Aug. 5...Most people
shun a Jail, but to Frances Hahn, II.
pretty telephone girl, it seemed a
peaceful haven. Several days ago
she appeared at the Chicago avenue
police station and begged the officers
to lock her up to protect her from
her mother. The officers made her
as comfortable as possible and be-
gan an investigation.
Today in the juvenile court, Judge
Pomeroy gave the girl new home
with woman who owns a place
near the telephone exchange. Her
mother, Mrs. Katherine Carroll, was
ordered not to molest her in any
way.
The girl says her mother always
met her down the street on pay day,
wrenched her money away and then
beat her after she had become drunk
on the proceeds.
