JAILING YOUNG MEN

Michael J. Hickey, Ex-convict,

Of Prison Fare
Crackers arc for use with soup,
and if cafeteria customers take
more than t w o , an additional charge
will be made.
T h a t is one of five rules drawn
up by Miss L a u r a F . T h o m p s o n ,
manager, T h e others a r e :
1. " D o not study in the cafeteria
from 11 to 2 o'clock.
T h i s will

a place to sit, and will give the staff
an o p p o r t u n i t y to clean up in the

2. " W h e n giving orders, speak j
clearly a n d audibly.
3. " D o not come under the rail
for food, but stand in line and wait
your turn.
4. " D o not carry mustard or
ketchup a w a y from the counter."
If the students and faculty will
observe the rules, it will mean a
great improvement in the service,
according to Miss T h o m p s o n ,
"ft is almost first degree murder to

A c c o m p a n y i n g his lecture with practical demonstrations, the former penitentiary inmate described the power of
religion to reform criminals.
Society, he charged, is willing to
put law breakers "behind the bars like
lightning," but is unwilling to assume
the duty of rehabilitating them when
their t e r m s are finished. He cited as
an example his own case, alleging he
was driven to further crime after his
first release, because he was unable to
find honest employment.
