MT. LAKE PARK

M i. LANE FARN
A little bird, perhaps the robin, for
he is a nosey fellow, has circulated the
report that there are some places in
Mt. Lake Park where those in the
know may purchase almost any guam
tity of moonshine. This may not be
true. Again it may. If true their
continu: nee does not add anything to
the reputation, dignity, or fair name
of the Park. In the face of the effort
now being made to repeal the Eigh-
teenth Amendment, there seems to be
disposition on the part of citizens in
all parts of the country, to overlook
violations of the law of this nature.
But until the amendment is repealed
these unlawful places should be sup
pressed. The citizenry of this COM
munity is made up, to very large
extent, of law-abiding and law
respecting persons, and it should not
be understood that this is haven of
refuge, because Of scattered popula-
ton and residents, for those who de-
sire to deal in contraband. We do
not know where these speakeasies are,
who runs them, or whether they do
actually exist, but reports seem rather
persistent. 1t may be that "fools en-
ter where angels fear to tread" but
we have complied with a request to
take a shot at this evil.

INSANE INMATES
WERE MARCHED
OUT TO SAFETY

Worcester, Mass. June 2-(UP)
Several hundred inmates were
marched to safety by attendants
and nurses when fire swept a four
story wing of the Worcester state
insane hospital early last night.
Three firemen were injured and
the lives of more than 1900 in
mates, some of them violently in
sane, were endangered when the
fire threatened other parts of the
hospital. State and local police
were called to guard the patients
herded together outside.
Firemen were hampered by low
water pressure caused by the situa-
ton of the hospital on a high hill
Officials believed the fire started
from defective wiring.
For several hours after the fire
was controlled Superintendent Will
liam A. Bryan ordered the staff of
$40 doctors, nurses and attendants
to keep the inmates near exits and
made a personal inspection of the
structure before recalling them.
Attaches said it was fortunate the
fire started in the Lincoln wing,
where there were no bed patients
and inmates were allowed in the
corridors and grounds outside.
