CASTING IN ON CRIME

Regardless of the particular activities in which
we engage, it is natural that we should endeavor
to look ahead, with view to estimating the re-
turns which may be expected.
Unfortunately, many do not look ahead at all,
or if they do they fail to heed the warnings plent-
fully supplied by the experiences of others This
is especially true of those who decide to embark
upon life of crime.
Laying aside all moral considerations, and
estimating the rewards of criminal solely in terms
of money, health and comfort, it seems strange
that any should try to beat such desperate game
Yet thousands try it and fail. They fail whether
they are ever adequately punished by law or not
The daily fear of detection and punishment is often
worse than punishment itself. For this reason,
many criminals give themselves up when they can
no longer stand the strain
Ray Majors, recently captured again in Kansas,
charged with long list of daring crimes, speaks
on the subject with authority. He says:
II am 80 years old began my career of
crime 10 years ago. Eight of those 10 years have
spent in jails and penitentiaries. have been shot
10 times with pistos,j once with rifle and three
times with shotgun. My left shoulder is shot
away. My left arm is paralyzed from the elbow
to the shoulder. One lung gone. Ny body is scar
red from head to foot with bullet wounds And l
say you can't win"

A STRENUOUS CAMPAIGN


Now that the campaigns are warming up, it

perence of Arkansas candidate for sheriff which
has been "gong the grounds of the press for sew
eral years.
The story has gathered various and sundry
additions in its march down the corridors of time

Lost four months and 20 days canvassing,
lost 1850 hours of sleep thinking about the cleo
ton, lost 40 of corn and whole lot of sweet
potatoes, lost two front teeth and lot of hair in
personal encounter with an opponent; donated one
beef, four shoats and five sheep to barbecues gave
away two pairs of suspenders, five calico dresses,
five dolls and 13 baby rattlers kissed 126 babies,

WRITING UP A WEDDING

Most newspaper men shrink from the task of
writing up swell wedding, and prefer to pass that
responsible duty to female society editor. Yet
there are exceptions. Occasionally an editor is
found who paint word pictures of nuptal events
that any lady reporter might envy.
We just discovered one like that who appears
to be hiding his great talents in an obscure Kansas
town. while he ought to be holding down big city
job. Here is sample of his literary ability, which
proves our point:
ut was wonderful wedding. The girl was
as sweet as any girl who ever lived, but modern.
As she walked up the aisle on her fathers arm,
her lips lightly tilted at the corners with happy
smile, she was picture of modest beauty. Her
filmy wedding gown and gossamer veil floated
around her fair blonde head like halo She was
as nearly an angel girls get to be in this world
AT the altar as she passed from her father, the
man she had always loved, to the other man to
whom she would devote the rest of her life, her
dainty slipper touched ported lily resting on the
floor and turned it over. Smiling again, she turn
ed to the dear old pastor waiting at the chancel,
and said: That was hell of place to put lily

COAST GUARD HEROES


Fifty members Of the United States Coast
Guardswere killed during the past year and some
400 we're injured in line Of duty. while engaged in
operations against rum row." Lieutenant Com
mander Yeandle told a prohibition gathering in
Detroit recently.
Most Of these deaths and injuries were the re-
suit Of forcing the men to keep TO sea in 75-foot
boats during the terrific gales which sweep the
North Atlantic, % deaths having been caused by
men being swept from the decks Of their vessels
last winter.
Commander Yeaudle declared that much
larger ships must be supplied for use Of the Coast
Guard if this deplorable loss Of life is to be check
ed.
Regardless Of snyoue's views on prohibition
or the means being taken to enforce. the fact that
many lives are sacrificed and so many men are
crippled in the performance Of their duties through
the failure Of the government 10 provide suitable
boats. is little short Of national disgrace.
Coast Guardsmen have always been heroes in
time Of STRESS but there is no justification for send
ing them TO death in 75-foot boats.

DUT Mike didn't think of that. Mike
- had never really thought of the
college as a place where one went to
learn the sciences-or at least he
hadn't thought of that for many, many
years.
Heaven and the great uncovered
buildings held equal fascination and
charm for him. They both seemed so
far. SO unreachable. The heavy gates
of the college seemed to guard some
precious supernatural life. The fig
ures that sauntered back and forth
thru the gates were like young gods,
whose swagger he had tried to initiate
as youngster, whose dress he had
copied in a cheap coarse way when
adolescent. The sight Of one of these
creatures, new and young and fresh
each year, like gods that never grow
old, even now stirred him with speak
less awe. Even the annual return OF
the old graduates, years adding to the
gray on their temples, did not quite
break this charm of everlasting youth,

bloomed on their cheeks and sparkled

graduated from had he gotten past his

been one of those born lucky enough
to be entitled to such an honor.
There they came! He recognized
the faces. He missed some of them
and wondered where they were. Death
