AUNT BETTY'S
FRI30NER
By M. QUAD
Copyright, 1SI3, by Associated Literary
PlCes.
When Stephen Kllis was elected sher
Iff of Indiaiu county the olil jailer, not
Miik of his party, had to go. To everybody's
surprise the place was given to
Uncle Jerry Stills.
Uncle Jerry was fifty years old. and
his wife, who was always called Aunt
Betty, was a couple of years younger.
They were nice old people. They were
liberal with what they had and knew
about as much of the wickedness of
the world as two children. The sheriff
had lived with them for four or five
years when he was a homeless orphan,
and he owed a debt of gratitude which
he wanted to pay. He knew their soft

take possession of tbe stone jug be
said:
"Now, listen to me! This is a jail
and not an orphan asylum. No one
will be sent here who Is Innocent or
deserves pity. All prisoners are here
because they deserve to be Every last
one will lie and play tbe hypocrite and
must be carefully watched. There
must be no foolishness with them.
Uncle Jerry, you mustn't trust one of
them as far as you can sling a bull by
the tail.
'And, Aunt Betty, you must harden
that kind heart of yonra. I know
you'd like to adopt every tramp In the
state and let him swfhg in a hammock ,
and have ham and eggs every meal,
but it's a different thing haa"
The Jail was without a prisoner just
then. At length a prisoner arrived to
be eased 1or by Uncle Jerry and Aunt
Betty. Be bad been tried for grand
larceny and given a sentence of six 1
months. Be did not look more than
eighteen years old and had a face as
Innocent as that of a child. He bad
tears in his eyes when he arrived at
the jail.
-What a shame!" exclaimed Aunt (
Betty after a look at the prisoner. ,
"He is rather young," replied Uncle
Jerry.
Aunt Betty sighed and said nothing
more. She didn't know whether or not
she'd tell the boy she pitied hiin.
There was something she did do when
she passed in the next meal, and she i
couldn't help herself. She looked sorrowful.
and she asked the prisoner if
he bad a mother. He studied her face 1
for a moment and then answered that
he had.
At Aunt Betty's next visit to the cell
she carried two extra dishes not pro- I
vided for by the rates, and when the
prisoner had thanked her he timidly
asked: "Good
woman, dare I ask yon to
write to my mother for me 7"
"If I write her she'll know yon are
In jail, and that will hurt her terribly."
"You must tell her, bnt you must tell
her that the whole world has been
against me. Nobody Is wiBlng to give
me a show."
"You poor boy!" she pityingly said.
"They say I stole a watch from a
farmhouse, but I never, never did. A
tramp wbo came later took the watch."
"And didn't they get him?"
"No, and because they didn't they
arrested me and sent me here. I was
a poor boy, you see. and bad no one to
befriend me."
"What a shame! What a burning
shame! Why, tlte Judge and Jury
ought to be here lb your place!"
"I want you to write to mother and
tell her so. I don't want her to think
I've become a wicked boy."
Uncle Jerry had M go out on business
one afternoon and was not expected
home until 0 o'clock in the
evening. At 0 o'clock Aunt Betty prepared
supper and invited the prisoner
to sit at table with her. She reasoned
that it would uplift and make a man
of him. He ate a full meal, speaking
words of gratitude between mouthfuls.
and then rose up and took her
by the throat and banged her head
against the wall and took the prison
key off its nail and opened the door
to liberty. It was cold weather, but
he went without hat or coat
It took Aunt Betty about ten minutes
to realize what bad happened,
and then she ran to the street bareheaded?not
to shout for help, however.
At a venture she turned to the
right and ran for her life down the
street and out in the country. Half a
mile from the Jail she caught sight of
her "poor Innocent boy." So did he
of her, and he legged it like a rabbit.
Over fences and across fields he led
her, but she was a hound on the trail
and ran him down at last
Then, as soon as she could get her
breath, Aunt Betty cuffed and walloped
and spanked and pulled hair until
that young man cried for mercy. On
the way back to Jail he got a cuff
about onoe in every twenty feet and'
when be found himself once more in
bis cell be was a thankful boy, Indeed.
"Is everything all right?" asked j
Uncle Jerry as be arrived borne. ,
"Yea, all was the answer.
"I found oot about that boy today.
Hels a tough one. He baa no mother
and has been in jail about ten times.
He's a slick thief and the biggest liar J
In the United States. I hope yon '
won't let him bamboozle yoa with bis I
talk and bis tears." j

Miss Clara Montgomery was a
temporary member of our faculty
last Friday. She took the place of
Miss Gray, our seventh grade teacher,
who was standing an examination
for a certificate to teach in this
State. Miss Gray is a graduate of
the Southern Presbyterian College,
at Red Springs, N C, and holds a
first grade certificate from that institution,
but one State does not 4
honor certificates issued in another
_ .
State. Uur county superintendent
reports that Miss Gray's average
was one of the highest made that
day.
Our boys are taking a great interest
in foot ball these days. We
haye two strong teams, which can
be seen at practice every afternoon
on the school grounds. The younger
boys have just purchased a new ball
and are very happy with it.
The Wee Nee Literary society
held its seqond meeting for the year
on Friday, October 3, with Miss
Thorn in the chair. After some
very nice selections had been read
the debate opened, the subject
being, Kesoved, That Woman's Surfrage
Should be Adopted in South
Carolina. After a very interesting
debate, strong points being brought
out on both sides, it was decided in
favor of the affirmative. There were
eight present in favor of woman's
suffrage out of about fifty. The
judges were the two high school
teachers.! Misses Cromer and Ada
Brockington. We were also glad to
have as one, Mr Raymond Holroyd,
who was our principal last year.
We hope that he will visit our society
again.*. We were pleased to
have Mr Harold Thompson to become
a member of our society. ^
