HANGING NO LONGER MORBID

Legal executions are few in Ken
lucky, but the recent electrocution
of a Pike county murderer in the
Eddyville prison not only vindicat-
ed the wisdom of the new system of
inf1icting the death penalty, but the
quiet and orderly manner in which
it was performed afforded a strik-
ing contrast to the morbid senti-
mentalism that featured legal exc
cutions before the law was changed.
Instead of thousands of curious
persons being attracted to the
county seat eager for a glimpse of
the condemned man as he stood upon
the gallows waiting for the drop,
he was quietly ushered into the
death chamber of the prison and
the current applied that in a legal
sense atoned for his terrible crime
Far removed from the actual
scene of the crime, its expiration
was accompanied by none of the
Objectionable features that would
have marked a semi-public hanging
of former days.
Under the new method of inflict-
ing capital punishment the commu-
nifty was spared grewsome event
and the probabilities are that but
few persons in the county where the
crime was committed knew that the
execution was to take place. After
an experience of ten years the State
hardly would go back to the old
way of inflicting the death penalty.
Two years ago the law was
amended to provide for hanging as
the death penalty for certain
crimes against women, but since
the change was authorized the moose
never has been invoked

CHRISTMAS SEAL CAMPAIGN TC
START SOON

The opening week of December
will witness the Inauguration in
this city of the sale of Red Cross
Christmas Seals, these little messen-
gers of this great organization. to
be sold for the benefit of the anti
tuberculosis fight that is being wag-
ed all over the country. On Mon
day. December 4, the seals will be
on sale all over Paris. Citizens
will be asked to join clubs Of $500
and $500, and business men and
women are urged to join one of
these clubs, and stamp all their
Christmas mail, packages and let
tiers with Red Cross Christmas seals.
On Thursday, December z, there
will be given public card party in
the Masonic Temple. Tickets for
the party will be placed on sale at
rs cents each. If the committee
appointed has not yet solicited you,
you may reserve your table by call
ing Hiram Redmon We trust that
everyone will hold this day in re-
serve and help to fight the tubercu-
lOsis ins Bourbon county.
Remember that seventy-five cents
out of every dollar realized by the
sale of Red Cross Christmas Seals
goes to the tuberculosis department
of the Bourbon County Health and
Welfare League. The committee in
charge will announce other definite
plans at a later date.
We all want to do our bit in the
promotion of a campaign in which
everyone is greatly interested. It
is hoped that everyonetr intending to
mail Christmas packages or letters
will keep in mind that for a penny
for each seal they will be contrib
uting to a campaign which has for
it's purpose the minimizing and the
ultimate determination of that
dread disease, tuberculosis. Why
use stickers which mean nothing at
all when for one single penny you
can use something that means
much, very much, to thousands of
already sick, and maybe countless
thousands yet unborn?
Get the real Christmas spirit.
Get beyond your immediate friends
and family. Let the weight of your
giving extend to the homes of the
tuberculosis afflicted simultaneously
with the cheer your letter or par
eel may bring to the recipient ad-
dressed. Do it with one, or more,
of the little Red Cross Seals at
tached to the package or letter.
