N. c. WOMAN BEGS TO BE
MADE A JAIL WORKER
preston News Service)

Oxford, N. c., Feb. 17.-Ralph Wal
tiers, acting Granville county jailor,
reports that the most amazing thing
happened when he unlocked the cell
door and informed Mrs. Helen Routen
that she was a free woman.
The Routen woman had been SEN
fenced to 90 days in jail and it was
specified that she would be a "trusty
janitress," and that her sentence would
be reduced if she attended to her du-
ties and behaved herself.
She is said to have proven to be a
very obedient and faithful worker, but
when she was told to get her clothes
and leave the Jail, she said:
"My clothes are in wash and l must
clean up the place before | leave and
l will not leave here until I get good
and ready. I'll let you know when !
am ready to 60"
Walters reported the matter to the
sheriff and that afternoon he told her
that she would have to go. She then
told the sheriff: Il would like to re-
main here and keep this place clean
You people have been so nice to me
I certainly hate to 60 out into this
cold, cruel world again"
The sheriff said that the woman pre-
scented a pathetic sight as she left the
jail. Two mornings afterwards, and
with the dawn Of day came Mrs. Rou-
ten asking that she be permitted to
clean up the Jail and let her remain
there. She told the sheriff that it
seemed as though the people outside
of the Jail picked on her and made
nothing but trouble for her. She knew
that she would be safe in the jail and
would not have to protect herself
against the mean people on the out
side.

Alderman Moran has been valu-
able and useful member of the City
Council from the old Thirty-hrst Ward
and new Sixteenth for the past nine
terms in the City Council and all Of
those years he has worked hard in the
interest of the people of his ward and
for the best interest at all times
for the great city of Chicago
For some years past he has been a
member of the Finance Committee and
other important committees of that
body. Being a clean cut business man,
he never permits anyone to put any
thing over on him with his eyes wide
open in broad day light.
There is one thing that can be
truthfully said to the great credit Of
Alderman Moran, namely, that he
firmly believes in handing out square
deal to everybody, white or black, rich
or poor, high or low. That one fact
alone causes him at all times to be ex-
tremely popular with his constituents
and as he is ever ready to do any
favor he possibly can, for the colored
people residing in his ward, they will
stand by him on Tuesday, February
p, and once more assist him to break
back into the City Council
1t was Alderman Moran who in
duced the city Of Chicago to purchase
and install the playground at 57th and
South Racine avenue, and when it is
finally completed it will be one of the
best and most lovely Fairgrounds in
this city.

BABY SAVING FOR CHICAGO

Of Health, Herman N. Bundesen,
NJ. d., Commissioner

Chicago had the lowest baby death
rate for all cities Of over a million pop
ulation in the United States in 1926.
For every thousand births the baby
death rate for the five largest cities in
the United States was as follows:

says DIR. Bundesen in his latest bulIe-

For nearly two years, Chicago 5

centrating on saving babies. The work
has cost large sums Of money; it has
taken thought and labor. But it has
been labor Of love.
Here, in brief, are a few Of the out
standing results:
Year, 1925, population 2,oe5,OO0
births 5000, infant deaths 4,457.
Year, 1926, population 3,O4S,OOO
births $4,000, infant deaths, 4,009.
Chicago's population was larger in
1926 than in 1925 by $1,000 souls and
there were SCI more babies born II
1926 than in 1925. But there were &C.
tually 448 fewer baby deaths in 1926
