Lltachert, secretary to Governor Goodrich, spent several days at the state prison, Michigan City, re cently, and being fortunate enough to get out again ia telling the following yarn: Warden Fogarty of the prison likes to make as easy as he can the hard lot of the prisoners, and has arranged for ball games at intervals within the prison walls. Convicts form the teams, and white there is gome diffi culty in getting one to act as umpire, the games usually are pulled off in good style. ▲ visitor from South fiend was at the jprison one day when a game was and being a former ball player it was suggested that he pnt on the prison uniform and get into the game “incog” and put a little profes sional “pep” into it. Eventually the “ringer” wag all fit ted put and was placed ip the lot. He was sitting op the bench when a typ ical convict “hard guy” swaggered up to him and sympathetically inquired: “Hallo, ho!

They .were handing out. pots and pans to the returned refugees at Reims that day. . It was really a very gay occasion, says Blanche Brace in World Outlook. The pots and pans made it so, in spite of the ghosts of dead homes (mere hollow shells of ruined houses) all around the shattered building where the distribution was being made, the broken cathedral over yon der, the miles of desolation every- where. Sometimes the refugee women hugged the cheap utensils to them and crooned over them as if they had been children; sometimes they wanted to pay a few centimes “rent” for* them, so that they might feoj the things were their own.
