Probation Officer
Is Kept Active

The last of the week Probation Of
ficer R. C. Tucker was called to Bonnie
Terre to investigate the case of 10
year-old girl at that place. He found
that the child had been abandoned by
her mother, in the Silver Springs
neighborhood, few miles north of
Bonne Terre.s Hungry and with in
sufficient clothing to hide her naked
ness, the child had drifted into Bonne
Terre. The above facts were elected
after careful investigation, as well
as that the child was morally correct.
Judge Tucker was also successful in
placing the girl in good private
home, and under her improved condi-
tions it is hoped she will grow into
virtuous womanhood.
The following day a child of IA
years was brought before the Juvenile
Court, charged with immortality. In
vestigation disclosed that the charges
were well founded. In fact the child
admitted that she had already started
on the destructive voyage of immor-
ality. The immature culprit was TAX
en- under the jurisdiction of the State,
and Judge Tucker is now considering
what disposition to make of the girl.
The home for derelict girls at Chilli
cothe is crowded, so that some other
place must be found for her.
The parents of this child separated
when she was five weeks old, and the
mother, who is hard working wo-
man, kept the child. A few months
ago, however, the girl began associat-
ing with immoral women, with the
above stated result. Two young fel,
lows have been arrested, charged with
being responsible for the girls pres
ent deplorable condition. The father
recently pretended to take an interest
in his daughter, whom he deserted as
an infant, though he admitted to
Judge Tucker that he would perhaps
not be able to recognize her to-day.
On Monday night. an infant, appar-
emily about ten days old. was left on
the porch of Mrs. Sheppard, an old
lady in Esther. Probation Officer
Tucker was at once notified and went
out Tuesday morning to investigate
the case. taking charge of the infant,
which he left in Mrs. Sheppard's care
until feraSs iE0dsa suitable home for
it. There is no known clue as TO the
parents of the babe. which was neat
and clean when found. Judge Tucker
has since found good home for the
infant with Mr.. and Mrs. Earl Mitch
ell, in Esther.

Practice Game
Last Sunday

Owing to stormy weather, the ball
game scheduled to be played on the
Pennington grounds last Sunday af-
ternoon, between the local team and
Irondale, was postponed. However,
as the rain ceased soon afternoon, and
the grounds were found to be in good
condition, an effort was made to Sc
cure the DeLassus team for game.
After considerable effort it was found
that several of the DeLassus players
were not at home, so that only four or
five players of the
five players from that place could be
secured. But they came gladly, will
ing to do their bit.
Several local players Joined with
them and team was pieced up, which
resulted in quite an enjoyable prac-
| tice game, though altogether one
sided, the patched team being unable
to give the home team zeal battle.

The Same Old
Disease Again

Most of The Times readers perhaps
have more or less knowledge of the
present condition of the Farmington-
Flat River road. Some may not have
actual personal knowledge of its ex-
act condition just at this time. We
desire to state that. for the principal
road in st. Francois county, which is
noted for its good roads, this much
used highway is again in very bad
condition. Only a few months ago
this road was entirely overhauled, re-
chatted and put in fair condition,
Now there is greatest need for such
an operation to be repeated.
This again demonstrates the fact
that it is impossible for road. used
as much as this road is, to stand up
for a satisfactory length of time with
any kind of loose surfacing. Roughly
estimating, there is perhaps thou
sand vehicles passing over this ROAD
every twenty-four hours. many Of
which are heavily laden trucks which
naturally tear up the surface consid-
erably whenever a depression occurs
in the surfacing, however slight.
There is now, perhaps, enough loose
chat on the sides of the road to fill in
the depressions for a time, if it were
properly raked over the road. That
would decrease the cost for temporary
repair. But this thing is certain: The
one way to put that road in permanent
condition for satisfactory traffic is
hard surfacing of some kind, and the
sooner this is done the better it will
be for all concerned.

What Is the
Compensation ?

: Fifty thousand dollars pledged to
defeat the referendum petitions. al
+, ready accepted and filed in the office
of the Secretary of State, covering
the county unit bill and the consolida-
tion bills! Fifty thousand dollars,
raised in the name of an apparently
fictitious organization known as the
Business Mems Committee on Con-
structive Legislation, for the purpose
of combating attacks on Gov. Hyde's
pet measures, procured by the presi-
dent of the Police Board! For what
can such vast sum be used? What
was the consideration pledged by the
Governor in return for this handsome
bit of political largesse? We Won
der.
1t is said that the fifty thousand is
to be used to check signatures to the
| petitions. In other words, you, who
signed the petitions, are going to be
checked up--you will be visited by ar
inqaisitorial officer who will demand
to know whether you actually signed
the petitions, and if so, why and al
whose behest! Because you entered g
protest against the extravaganza and
autocratic ways of the present Gov
ernor, you are to be hailed into the
presence of some kind of a commits
sioner and investigated. Obviously
such tactics as these can have but one
object, and that to attempt to intim.
idate the people and make it difficul,
to obtain signatures to future refer
endum petitions. 1t is the same ole
bluff and bluster of the Hyde regime
There were petitions from fifteei
districts on the county unit bill ant
the judicial gerrymander. and peti
tons from fourteen on the other
There was an excess of signers il
each district ranging from five hun
dred to eight thousand, above tn
quotas. No investigation could poss'
bly, be conducted which could elimi
nate enough signatures to nullify tn
petitions. And Hyde, if he were mer
tally sober, knows as much. He
