last winter with the intention OF
erecting this year a 100000 fax

statement regarding the future Of

although it is too late to plant
fax seed successfully this year the
corporation has decided to hold
over for another year. In the mean
time we will be enabled to eradicate
the snags now existing and become
stronger in every way than we have
been up to the present writing. In
fact our present condition Is better
than il has been at any time hereto
fore. We are mourning no new indebt-
edness, not even for Office expenses,
because every dollar invested must
yield a good return. and we insist
upon overhead charges being re-

ment will be more satisfactory be-
cause next year both cutter and a
binder and a puller and a binder
will be on the market. The hand
binding proposed this year although
not popular was not such an OBJ
stacie as would have defeated our
success because the farmers decided
to bind by hand II necessary, and
next year not only this community
but the entire State and surrounding
States will owe a debt Of gratitude
TO the 125 farmers near Smyrna
who in the year 1921 decided TO do
everything in their power TO give this
industry a fine start.
zone more thought suggests itself
and that Is that not only the farm
ers but the residents OF Smyrna and
vicinity IN general are now boosting
instead OF knocking. Such an atti-
tude Is great help and a valuable
asset toward success. The above
statement Is made simply to inform
the public that the fax company has
not gone under as necessarily would
be the general impression without
such a statement from one Of ths
officials. The industry is coming tC

Criminals Half Wits?
No, Says DR.. Adler

Psychopathic traits are what you
probably would call queer quirlSs."
They are abnormal things that mako
an individual a crank different
from his fellows.
The thing which impels a man 20
commit murder on pretext at
which you or 1 would laugh-that's
a psychopathic trait
The thing which causes a man or
woman to brood over something
trivial and finally commit suicide
that's psychopathic.
II is these traits that we must
watch to deal with crime scientifi-
cally.
We must turn our jails into OBJ
servauon stations. We must make
schools OF our prisons. We must
try to detect psychopathic cases
while they are young, before they
blossom out in murder or sex crimes.
Judges, lawyers, police and jailers
have been dealing with criminals
for hundreds Of years. The day has
come when the physician also must
deal with them.

Sitv of Illinois

1Ny OF llilnOiN
You've been told that criminals
are almost an mentally deficient.
that the prisons are filled with
feeble minded. that man commits
a holdup OF a revolving sex crime
because he is only a child in intel
lect.
That's a pleasant theory. II would
give us law-abiding people much
comfort to believe It. But It is not
true.
And this is true-that criminals
in penitentiaries are not only equal
TO the rest OF us in intelligence, but
there are fewer inferior intelligence
among them than in the general
population.
Intelligence is not the big thing
in dealing with crime.
What, then, Is the big factor in
crime?
1t is what physicians call psyche
pathic traits. These are present In
almost every criminal. no matter
what his degree of intelligence.
