CTS whose crops and homes were invaded by flood waters gather at points along the river for relief, just as Mississippi river folk once gathered to witness shows on steam boats.
 Red Cross relief workers sta- tioned at Selma transferred their offices and supplies of feed, seed and other relief materials to the boat and piled up and down the river, stopping at the various plan tation landings to dispense aid on the spot to the needy.
 A smaller scout craft generally precedes the relief boat, selecting landing points and arranging for the flood victims to be on hand when the big boat arrives. Each victim is consulted about his needs and the necessary food stuffs and supplies for planting new crops are furnished from the boat.

The Gifted Crook

It is o. most surprising thing that
any gifted man will cling to crooked,
lawless ways, that he will use his mas
sive brains to gather in Illicit gains,
and be chased all his days. Yet many
men Of intellect avoid the courses cir
cumspect, and steep themselves in
crime; and every time they pass q jail
this knowledge sad should make them
quail--theyll soon be serving time. Ad-
ventures lure with them Is strong; they
doubtless feel they don't belong with
staid and honest men, who labor hard
for what they get, save up the scads,
keep out of debt, and thus avoid the
pen. The gifted criminals disdain this
policy so safe and sane, they want ex-
citing times; they're glad to see the
laws defeat, and so they forge and blk
and cheat to get the tainted dimes. In
crimes domain they're counted wise;
they have the skill to organize, like
generals they plan; but soon the law
they have defied win get them and
they'll take ride in some dark prison
van. The gifted criminals grow old, as
well as men who've gained their gold
by fair and honest means; and when
life's Winter hands them ice, it's sell
dom that they have the price to buy
their pork and beans. There are great
hosts of starving knaves who teeter to
their pauper graves, who Aourished for
a while, who looked on quiet, honest
wights, who worked by day and slept O.
nights with sardonic smile. Adven-
ture leads the gifted crooks from happy
homes and inglenooks, from scenes
where all is well; it also leads them on
apace to shadows of the wailing place,
and to the grimy cell.
