To the Good Citizens of Berkeley
County:
After having been confined in the
Berkeley county Jail since August
18th, 1921, awaiting the sitting of
the federal grand jury, and haying
been released, | feel that it is my
duty to my fellowmen who are still
confined in this jail, as well as to
my friends and the good people of
Martinsburg and Berkeley county, to
make aN%atement with reference to
conditions existing at this place of
torture; and before entering into this
lengthy article | wish to say that
| have no apology for any statement
which | am about to make. for it is
the truth, and nothing but the truth
| have never before been confined
IN any Jail or prison; but having
been an officer Of the law myself for
over seven years and having seen
the conditions in numerous city,
county and state prisons, | feel that
am qualified to make this state
mont. | am giving the facts with
ont malice of ill-feeling toward any
one, and because the public has the
right to know these things, and be-
cause conditions in the Berkeley
county Jail are the worst | have
ever seen. knowing as we all do
that every prisoner, regardless of
the charge placed against him, is
not a criminal until so adjudged by
a court OF justice, and is entitled to
at the very least, humane treatment.
This, however, is not the existing
rule in the Berkeley county jail; but

WHY a NATIONAL GUARD.

Why a national guard and why
company of the guards in Blue

number Of Bluefelders just now
because Of the activity in the mat
ter of organizing such a company
Phich is to be made a part of the
new 150th infantry.
A national guard company is in
surance! Startling as this may
seem, sober consideration will bear
out the assertion that strong
well-equipped, Well-trained unit of
he national guard will be the SAT
est insurance the people could pos
sib'y have fer the maintenance Of

supposition that interests at vari-
ance with the regular processes Of
law and ambitious to achieve their
own ends nights set to work and by
ufaming the minds Of the ignorant
persuade them to indulge In riots,
or worse. In that event, with the
ordinary police facilities swamped

Pottery the Oldest Art.

Pottery is the Oldest, the longest and
most widely diffused of all human arts.
Its history, If recorded. would be as
old as the history OF man; its record
ed history begins with the building of
the tower of Babel. The oldest pot
terry known is Egyptian, but every peo-
pie, civilized or barbarian, has prac-
ticed the art In one or another form.
All study in every department of art
begins at a period not long after the
Mosaic deluge, but pottery is the
earliest of all forms of art.
