one of the greatest of oil fields. He be-
came identified with all of the aettv1-
ties of his home; was always among
the constructive workers and, recOg-
nizing his ability, he was chosen as one
of the delegates to the Constitutional
Convention of 1921 to represent Clai-
borne Parish. His work there was
marked in his activity for the cause of
education. While there he received an
s. o. s. that the Discovery Well on the
Taylor farm had been brought in-that
all Of his deans had come true
Haynesville was on the map of the
world, and he was one Of the Smither-
man Syndicate, whose abiding faith,
tenacity Of purpose and enterprise had
brought it about. He FASTENED home,
there saw where hundreds had lived a
few days before thousands were seek

others of the live men Of the town they
Immediately saw the urgent necessity
Of ample water supply, and SO without
delay, without any red tape, water
works system was instantly organized,
and building started and more wells
were ordered drilled. The bonds were
voted months later, but MOrelock, who
had been elected City Attorney, backed
by progressive citizens, raised all Of
the money and put it up before the peo-
pie had even authorized the expendi-
ture And so with all other civic
achievements Morelock has been one Of
the moving spirits To him, perhaps
more than any one else, is due the
splendid school program being carried
out In Haynesville. Modern grammar
and high school buildings to rank with
any In the state are to be erected this
year. and Haynesville's educational
facilities will rank with those Of any
city three times its size.
Mr.. MOrelOck is very active in church
and Sunday school work. An elder
in the First Presbyterian Church of
Haynesville, he is one of the financial
pillars as well, and to HIM perhaps
more than any other member IS due the
erection of the beautiful house of
worship.
Mr.. MorelOck Is also active in Ma
sonry and is a member of FL Karubah
Temple. A. A. o. NJ. S.
Mr.. Morelock is married, has three
children, lovely home, and his wife
functions as charming hostess in

Howt to Make RaspberryJan1
With One Minutes Boiling
Makes One-Half More From Same Amount of Fruit
Saves All Color and Flavor-Never Fails

As a spread on hot biscuits,
toast, or waffles, raspberry jain
has few equals-the fresh pungent
flavor certainly brings back the
sharp appetite Of childhood. BY a
rev process that revolutionizes all
cookbook traditions, the housewife
is now able to put up this delicacy
quicker, more economically, with
better and svrer results. It's called
the Certo Process.
with Certo you use the fully.
ripened raspberries; only one min.
ute's boiling is required-not the
half hour or more the old way
calls for. The result is a far more
fruity : flavor and one-half more
product from the same amount of
fruit, because no juice has boiled
away. And you get the taste OF
the fresh berry. the kind you used
to pick In the old berry patch down
by the woods now stored up for
you for winter use.
This is the Certo Recipe for Rasp.
berry Jam:
Crush well in single layers about
two quarts Of ripe berries, using
wooden masher and discarding all
green parts. Measure 4 level cups
crushed berries and IN leveled cups
OK lbs.l sugar into good-sized pre-.
serving kettle. Mia well; stir hard
and constantly. Bring to vigorous
boil and boil hard ! full minute,
continually stirring. Take from
fire and add Y bottle (scant, n cup)
Ccrto, stirring II in well. Let stand
minutes only, by the clock, stir
ring occasionally; skim and pour
quickly into sterilized glasses. For

ELLIS ADVISES.
/ REMEDIES FOR
'CURB|NC CRIME
Cessation Of Manufacture OF
Firearms Necessary, D. c.
: Lawyer Says.
BY WADE ii. ELLIS,
Former Assistant United States At.
tOrney General.

FORMER Assistant United States At
tOrney General.
The United States is being swept
by the greatest and most threaten
ing crime wave in its history I'm.
less drastic measures are adopted to
>check it, society is confronted by a
state Of affairs that will lead, not
perhaps to a state OF anarchy, but
the development of a school for an.
archists and those who deem it a
virtue to oppose law at every op-
!, portunity.
What, then. are the most efficient
remedies?
Remedies Suggested.
believe the adoption of the fol.
lowing measures will tend to lessen
crime and inspire a higher regard
Tor the law:
l. SteriliZe the criminals-second
and worse offenders. The necessary
operation, / am informed, is pain
less and may be accomplished by Use
of the X-ray. Sentimentalists may
object to this method, but it is pro-
ducing good results in several
States. 1t should be applied only 10
criminals who are beyond hope of
permanent reform.
2. Severer penalties by our courts.
In order to have a deterrent effect
the punishment must be vigorous.
Coddling of prisoners should be STOP
ped.
3. Let the Government manufac-
ture and sell firearms. The regula.
ton Of the sale OF firearms is very
important. Pistols, especially, should
be manufactured by the United
States at the arsenals and their pri.
Vate manufacture and sale prohibit
ed. as is the sale of narcotics. Reput-
able citizens ought to be enabled to
obtain permits to have pistols in
their homes for selfdefense.
Firearms Through Mail.
Under present conditions anyone
may obtain firearms through the
mails by sending the necessary sum
to mail order houses. 1t is useless TO
hope for a reduction in the amount
OF crime. which includes the shooting
OF people by criminals. as long as
this facility to obtain firearms ex-
lists.
These are probably the most i'm.
portant suggestions, but there are
many more.
Greater parental control would
help very much, particularly since
there Is an increase in the number
OF young men defying the law.
There can be no doubt that par
ents, many of them foreign born,
are responsible to a great extent for
the lawlessness which exists in this
country today. Children are per
mitted to run the streets, to associ.
ate with children who may lead
otherwise well intentioned children
into offenses against the law. The
consequence is that they become in.
cipient criminals and when they
grow up into young manhood are
ready to adopt the ways of older
criminals.
Recommendations Being Framed.
Many of these recommendations
will be submitted in a memorial that
II Is expected, will be adopted by the
American Bar Association at its an.
nual convention in San Francisco in
August.
One difficulty Of the committe. of
which am a member and which was
appointed by the American Bar Asso-
citation to recommend means to re-
duce crime. is that the Federal Gov
ernment has no records classifying
the amotnt and various kinds Of
crime in this country.
