PRISONERS TO GET
WARMER CLOTHING
In Addition to Their Comfort, 1t Will
Be Real Economy Move For
Highway Expenses
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
Rv T. C. IRA FIR WILL

Raleigh, Oct 5-"We are going to
keep the prisoners warm this winter,
especially in the western counties
where they frequently have to work
in temperatures that stay down a
round Zero" Oscar Pitts, acting di-
rector of the State Prison Division of
the highway department, said today.
"a prisoner can do more and better
work if he can stay warm and COM
Portable and his morale is itetter.
1900 New Leatherettes.
"See those winter REFERS over
there?," Pitts said pointing to one
corner of his office which looked
more like an exploded clothing store
than anything else. 1--WE have just
bought 5000 of those heavy coats for
the prisoners up in the mountain
counties, where it gets plenty cold and
where the usual prison clothing does
not give them enough protection. We
have bought 1900 of those leatherret-
tie REFERS with heavy wool Innings
and 1900 of those of heavy moleskin
cloth with wool Innings. They will
keep the prisoners warm in the cold
est weather.
I'm the past, the only coats the pri-
soners have had in cold weather have
been these thin jackets made of the
same material overalls are made Of"
Pitts said holding up a thin jacket,
hardly any heavier than a denim
shirt. ga jacket like that is no pro-
lection in really cold weather such as
we have up in the mountains. 1t is
wonder to me we didn't have lot of
prisoners down with pneumonia last
winter"
Practical Economy.
The providing of warmer clothing is
not lust sentimental whim on the
part of the prison division, but prac-
tical economy, Pitts believes. He is
convinced that a prisoner will do
great deal more work and much bet
ter work if he IS fed plenty OF good
food and warmly clothed than if he IS
poorly fed and thinly clad. Accord
inglv he is convinced that the buy
ing of this heavier clothing for the
prisoners in the mountains is really
God economy and that the additional
cost will be compensated for by the
additional work that will be gotten
from the prisoners.

line ended only IA miles from their
chief objective, Austria's Adriatic
base, Trieste. There was little to

sive except $4,000 Austrian prisoners
and the Gorilla bridgehead. How
ever, the offensive had served a vital
purpose in occupying large Austrian
armies which otherwise might have
gone to the help of Germany on the
western front and enabled it to shat
ter the Franco-British line. Petain
and Haig were the heroes of the mo-
ment in the war picture, because the

eastern ring, the Butte boxer hut out
for his newly acquired hay ranch, not
far from Ralston, in the Big Hole

Hides Behind Beard
The boxing carnival was staged at

IN the region, appeared with a heavy
growth Of beard and was attired as
Highlands attire themselves. Joe and
his opponent were given box stall to
shed overalls and to put on ring toys.
His challenger was taking off his
shoes.
do you have to take off your shoes
to be a fighter?" This was the first
question Joe sent out.
"Oh. I've got a pair of rubber-soled
shoes like the men in the main event,
replied his opponent.
Joe then asked If It would be al
right II he wore the shoes on his feet |
as he did not own another pair of |
any kind. He was told okay.

Joe then pulled off his shirt and ex-
posed a man-mountain chest, rugged |

the arms that showed bone and
muscle, at the big fists, at the Shout
