IN DEFENSE OF
CONVICT CAMP
Will Take Week to Present
His Case, He Tells Legis-
lative Committee

Tallahassee, Fla. May 2-State
senator T.. J. Knabb, whose convict
lease camp in Baker county, is
being investigated for alleged brut-
ality to prisoners by joint legis-
lative committee yesterday informed
that committee it would take him
at least week to summon all his
witnesses so that the investigation
can be continued. He declared he
would be ready next Tuesday morn
ing.
The Senator declared he welcomed
the investigation.
The committee announced that
much time will be given to receiving
the testimony of j. B. Thomas, a
prison supervisor, who referred to
the Knabb camp on conditions there
as "human slaughter-house."
STRAP ACTION POSTPONED.
Tallahassee, Fla, May 2. - The
Florida senate last night decided to
postpone final consideration of a
measure to prohibit corporal punish
ment of prisoners in this state, and
in what generally was considered a
test vote the advocates of banning
the strap lost 13 to 16.
The senate voted to send the orig
inal measure relating officially to
corporal punishment, with all the
amendments that have been offered
dealing broadly with supervision of
convicts,. to a special committee of
five to work out bill reconciling
the conflicting views and report back
to the senate. The bill when report
ed back will be special order of
business until definitely disposed Of.
The test vote came on an effort by
Senator MacWilliams to direct the
committee to incorporate in it's rec
commended bill all inhibition against
corporal punishment.

, situation. After investigating and finding that there was a state law against such practice she called a policeman and laid the matter be- fore him. On the following Sunday morning at the hour appointed for work, the policeman arrived at the store and ordered the proprietor to send the women back to their homes. | The next morning the proprietor called up the league member (the policeman had let her name slip), and, scolding her in no uncertain terms, stated that her interference had caused him heavy loss. No car fare and no extra pay were given those women. A former employe in department store of Birmingham, recently made the statement that she would like to have a dollar for every time she had been called upon to re- port for duty on Sunday morning.
 Illinois women disappointed at re- suits of state legislatures:
 Like Alabama, Illinois has one woman representative in its state legislature; unlike Alabama it has rejected the Sheppard Towner bill. Mrs. Lottie O'Neill, woman legislator of Illinois, has a winning person. ality and is woman of conspicuous ability. Nevertheless, 10 of the 13 measures which she proposed, and moost of which were backed by the strongest women organizations in the state, were defeated at the summer session of the legislature. She was graciously permitted to save the wild flowers; to help the crippled chill dren; and 'to insure some added rights of inheritance to wives"
 That the Sheppard -Towner bill was defeated when it has been adopted by 40 states seems incom- prehensible to the women who ohad worked so arduously for it's passage. Its defeat was due partly to the un- reasonable and unfair opposition of a

SUPPER OUTDOORS

One tired Birmingham business man gets a bit of recreation and at the same time gives the entire fam fly a treat in a very simple but de- p. m. and the automobile Is filled with wifey, kiddies and guests. If any happen to be there, together with the lunch case.
 They have an enjoyable hours ride, then the picnic supper Is served at the side of some cooling stream. After that a quiet smoke and pleas paddle in the water or play ball in which game daddy must join. Then 8 scufryipG for the automobile, a stop at the first opportunity to get the ice cream dessert and the ride home, which is reached in time to get the cAdren to bed at a seasonable hour It is a picnic for all and a real rest for the man.
 Sandwiches-At these outdoor sup pers the housewife serves sand wiches, substantial ones for the grownups and for the children there are some of peanut butter and some of jelly. Sometimes minced meat is spread between slices of bread. Grated cheese is another favorite me- dium A lettuce leaf with a sGver- ing of salad is another appetizing sandwich. A very good one is made by mixing equal quantities of finely minced celery, chopped, stuffed ol- ives and chopped pecan meats and to one cup of this mivture allow one chopped hard-boiled egg. Season with salt. moisten with mayonnaise and spread between thin, buttered slices Cf whole wheat bread. A good brown bread sandwich is made by spreading buttered slices witA cream or cottage cheese and covering with thin strips of sweet pepper or water cress.
 Eggs-Plain bread and butter sandwiches are served wi.h eggs which are deviled for ths elders and plain boiled for the juniors. For both purposes they are boiled 30 min utes For the children sandwiches can be made by ch0pping or finely s,icing the whites and spreading on buttered Slices of bread, then grat- ing the ytll1 over the top and cover Ing with another slice of bread.

be so appropriate for the room in which you eat.
 Arrange the plates on narrow racks above the fireplace or mantel, or fasten them securely in place with bent nails. If your plates are not all of the same size, put the larger ones lower down and the smaller ones above. being sure that any pie lures on the plates arc right side up. In case the dishes you want to use are all different, arrange them so that they balance not only in size, but in color. When you have finished you will undoubtedly remember an old pair of brass candlesticlls that would be just the thing to complete the appearance of the over-mantel, or else you might find that an an- tque box laid away in the closet is of about the same queer shade as your grandmothers pudding plate. In this way endless combinations of plates and other niclInacks will go toward decorating the home at the least amount of expense.

Tide Of Fashion
 Turns Backward

LONDON. August 25.-The tide of fashion is turning backward. Crino- lines have been revived, period" gowns are stepping forth from the pages of history and now. according to London style experts, women are to wear wigs again.
 Early autumn dress shows, both m London and Paris, have been notable for the number of period frocks dis played-Something from one of the Louis reigns, or perhaps something Elizabethan or Georgian. And with period dress, the wig is said to har- monize more effectively than mi ladys own natural hair.
 The revivals of age-old styles will be noticeable chiefly in evening wear.
 Modern hair does not lend itself to being dressed in the styles of former centuries" said a London dressmaker, explaining the threatened wig vogue Many women are cer- tain to wear powdered wigs with evening frocks during the coming months"

 Aid from the federal government amounting to S7.700000 was accepted for other purposes and equal appre- citations made from the state treas ury to secure such aid.

With the Sheppard -Towner bill the eight-hour bill went down to de- feat one of the measures most strongly supported by Mrs. O'Neiu, the eight-hour bill represented the culmination of 10 years effort on the part of the Womens Trade union and had behind it the support of many other strong organizations.
