One of the causes Of increasing
crime is the increasing number Of
laws to be violated. Trade Union
leaders throughout the country are
contributing their thought and obser-
walton to the discussion Of crime and
some Of the wisest expressions in the
whole discussion have come from that
source.
But despite the great range Of
thought expressed, it is generally for
gotten that changing mode Of living,
with changing law and growing
bulk Of criminal law, inevitably ere

Many facts which formerly were
lawful are now unlawful. Many per-
sons continue to do what once was
lawful and in consequence now are
criminals.

Crime, like almost everything else,
took an upward jump the last year
and the number Of prisoners crowded
Federal penitentiaries beyond all nor
NAL limits.
What to do about increasing crime
is a growing problem-and what to
do with the increasing number Of
criminals is just as much Of source
of annoyance.
In many prisons cells built for one
are made TO accommodate two prison
ers. Sanitation is not what il ought
to be. Prisoners, in many cases, are
compelled to sleep in Easements.
On June 80 Of 1925 there were 851
more federal prisoners than on the
same date in 1924.

APRIL AND SPRING

Signs OF spring! The signs of spring are legion but never
any mention OF a high sign of summer, fall or winter. Why
does one watch for and believe in signs of the advent of only
spring, unless it be because no other season is so welcome and
no other sign so easy to believe? One believes in the signs
one wishes to come true.
John Burroughs observed that spring extends from the
middle of March to the middle of June, coming to a close
only with the unfolding of the last leaf. But April is the very
heart and soul of spring. 1t is as the month of spring that
the poet sings of April:
And now comes April, mingling smile and tear,
Each hour a shower, each hour a zenith clear.
Her blended hope and sympathy so vast
Smiles for the future, weeping for the past.
April was the month of wonders and unreasonable joy
for those immortal naturalsts Thoreau, Whitman, Burroughs,
Hudson and Wordsworth. The signs of spring they observed
during this month of thirty days were not mere fantasy or
guess-work prophecy. They knew the secrets of nature and
that spring is her busy season and April her housekeeping
month.

GRAB IT-HOLD 1T

A great many of our readers know Dick, only that is
not his real name. He is a bright-eyed youngster who plays
hard every day.
A few days ago we watched him and his playmates having
a game of baseball. The score at the time we stopped to
look is an unimportant detail. Dicks eyes were never off
the rapidly moving sphere. Suddenly a hard and fast fly
was batted to his field. Out in this field was a great puddle
of muddy water, left by a recent rain, and the ball went
straight for the puddle. And Dick went straight for the
ball. AS the ball shot for the ground Dick leaped into the
air, caught the ball, and-splash! he went flat in the dirty hole
But the hand that had nailed the fly never touched the
ground. He waded out, covered with mud and soaked to the
hide, two facts of which he seemed unaware, because he had
caught the fly-and had held it.
Some boys would have started for the ball and stopped
at the edge of the puddle. Some others would have lost 1T
when they fell. Dick held on.
That particular ball game soon will be a forgotten affair."
or at the best only a memory. But we can picture Dick when
he gets into the real game of life, as being classed among
the star players. He will not look for the little unpleasant
things but will hurl himself at the ball and hold on Tor dear
life. He may fall in the mud-he may even have to be flshed
out-but when he comes to the top, in his hand you will
see the ball
One great afflicton of so many of us is the tendency to
first look for the puddle instead of the ball. And by the time
we have figured out every little chance against a successful
catch, the ball is gone.
When the ball of life is batted into your field, grab it.
Don't tumble it-hold it.

THE HEN HOUSE

Why not give the hen a warm
comfortable up-to-date house to
live in! You expect her to produce
eggs for you, then she expects you
to make this possible for her. Have
you done this?
A satisfactory poultry house need
not be elaborate Or expensive. 1t
may be constructed out of a variety
of materials and after a number
of different plans, but it must
be right in principle. There are
four essential requirements a hen
demands for her house. l.. 1t must
be dry. 2. 1t must be properly
ventilated. 8. 1t must have a good
floor. 4. 1t must be well lighted.

ious diseases. Cody, although hav-
ing a scattering sickness, has so
far this winter escaped any serious
contagion. Too much credit for
this cannot be given to the water
and sewerage system. True it IS
that the water harbors plenty of
small red bugs, which seem to be
universal in mountain lakes, but
an analysis of the water show it
to be good, and free from serious
contamination. Nothing is more
essential to the welfare and health
of a town than good city water
and sanitary conditions such as an
adequate sewerage system provides.

BIOGRAHY

Biographers apparently are bent on capitalizing names and
position. Let any man who has held high office die, and i'm
medately his biographers feed the presses until their rollers
ar hot with rush of biographical output. Let any man be
elevated to high place, and instanter biographers keep the
press inkwells bubblng with rush of matter detailing their life
histories.
But why? Holders of high office are not unusual. Some
of them are only mediocre subjects for the biographer or less.
The lives of many who have never held office are more in
teresting as subjects of biography than those of many men who
have been showed into high place.
1t has been said that biography is history. But that
only applies to those whose lives are history-making. Let that
be the test rather than passing distiction, and library shelves
will not be so crowded with volumes that will be handed
over to the waste paper man a few years hence.

SPRING

This vernal equinox is a very
regular matter; nature, with all
her vagaries, can be rigidly scienti-
fic when she chooses. But in the
popular mind spring is still a NOV
able feast. Sometimes it begins
prematurely, on the first warm day.
Last year it anticipated the vernal
equinox; the buds were swelling
and the leaves were coming out
long before the usually appointed
time. But afterwards, as Cromwell.
in his lament for his fallen great
ness, remarked of the state of man.
there came a chilling frost to with
er all our hopes. 1t might be said
that spring looked in for a few
days and then withdrew to wait for
a more propitious season.
March passes as a spring month,
though 1t is two-thirds gone before
the zodiacal date. Thus many hail
the first of March as the beginning
of spring. and point to the robin
and the bluebird in confirmation.
But the birds r. 10 infallible cal
endar. The early harbingers may
be no migrants, but only winter
residents who have hidden away
in the deep woods or sheltered mar
shy places. Most persons have their
own pet signs-putting on a low
shoes, perhaps, or abandoning win
ter underwear. But this is a pro-
sale way to celebrate the reawak-
ening of Mother Earth. To the
more imaginative spring comes
first in the soul-stirring a divine
discomfort, urging escape from grim
realities. Some break in the rout-
inc of life becomes imperative. The
call of the sea is in some ears,
the call of the woods in others.
We do not have to go to the alma
nae to hear it.
There was a logic in the old
Julian calendar which began with
March, as the names of the months,
September, October and the rest.
reveal. Our present New Year is
a purely arbitrary date. For that
matter, most of our reckoning of
time is conventional. When our
time zones were adopted we treated
the sun d~isrespectfully. One divi-
sion of time is as good as another
if only it is convenient. We may
reckon spring from the first of
March or from the vernal equinox.
1t is just as capricious in it's arrival.
