Often i t experiences genuine sorrow for the man who, instead of succeeding, brings hack a satisfactory excuse for failure.

E. Crow, who made a state-wide reputation as Xenia workhouse super­ intendent, does not know the of the word fa il He ia grit, pluck and perseverance personified. The hardened criminal, the man be­ yond redemption, received little mercy a t his hands. He was.made to toe the mark. On the other hand the youth, ihe man with possibilities of reform, the offender who might be saved, always got a helping hand from Supt,' Crow, One New Year's day Crow .was noti­ fied by wire by the Chief of Police pf Wheeling, W, Va., that he had cap­ tured a notorious thief, Frank Holmes, who had escaped six weeks before from the Xenia house of punishment and correction. Holmes was bellicose. He refused to return to Ohio without extradition pa­ pers. I t was in Crow that he met more than his match. Holmes’ escape had been, made by intimidation of the night guard, Joe McDonald, Crow has been Jonny-on-the-Sppt apd had resorted to extensive publicity to locate the miss­ ing prisoner. Crow secured the necessary extradi­ tion papers and rushed to Charleston, W. V„ to complete the legal action be­ fore the governor there. Holmes by this time was in a fight­ ing mood. He retained a, lawyer and secured the temporary benefit of a' habeas corpus proceedings. . Crow was not deterred from getting justice and his prisoner. He camped bight there in Wheeling and Crow waa winner in Criminal Court and eventu­ ally in Circuit Court. He fought right and fought hard. Here's another kind of a story: A boy-hut nineteen years old ran away from -his home in West ..Virginia be­ cause he didn’t like his step-father, who conductd a general store and who wanted the"boy to learn the business by beginning a t the bottom. The boy, lacking trained skill as an artisan, and being short of experience, did not seem to be able to hold per­ manent employment.. At any rate it. was but a step to hobodom and he took the step. At Chillicothe in a box car he quarreled with another hobo'. In the melee the boy hit his companion with an iron bar. A, cop, Who had just arrived on the scene, was a wit­ ness of the assault. Result, a term in the Xenia workhouse fpr the youth. Supt. Crow learned the boy’s story*. By investigation i t Was verified. He also learned the boy had a heart- 'iroken mother down in West Virginia. Crow's heart was touched. There was too much pathos in the case fo r him. Start interest forced him -to journey to Chillicothe, where by dint of explana­ tion tuid pleading, he persuaded the mayor of that city to Order the boy's release. Crow agreed to stand sponsor for the boy. Subsequent developments proved ihe trust well placed. The boy was-returned to Ws mother. He went back with many good resolutions and is now a useful member of society. _ The above stories emphasise some of Supt. Crow's good qualities and fu r­ nish some potent reasons why. he' would make a good and efficient sheriff of Greene county.

In a few minutes it waa in flames. Neighbors came to the assistance and t>y heroic efforts the barn, which was only a few feet away,was saved. The stack was an old one and did not bum as fa s t as if i t had been a new one. Men surounded it and as the flames would keep breaking out they would keep turning the straw over until the flames were smothered. The ham is a fine one and was built only a few years ago following the burn­ ing of another on the same site. —Heap in mind the special bar­ gains a t Kelble’s in Xenia when wanting clothes.

CONSERVATION A NECESSITY BUT IS IT PRACTICED? Some daya back newspapers receiv­ ed orders to cut off all exchanges this being done as a matter of conser­ vation of newspaper. As most every paper has been asked by the national library association* to send a number of copies of each issue to the various training camps fo r the USe of the conscripts this reauest was granted no doubt by everv paper. Now we learn that the free list order will stop the sending of home papers to the camps unless some pays for them. The order is generally being obeyed by the papers, but from the sample of our Monday morning mail we feel that a number of the departments under governmental control are not exercising this care. We just re­ ceived ten letters Monday morning from various government agencies asking for space for this and that. It required a great quantity of“paper to send these letters to the seven hundred newspapers in this state alone. Then there was a host of stenographers that had to do the writing. Let's have the same rule applied to governmental as well as private agencies. SALESMAN WANTED—To solicit orders for lubricating oils, greases, and palate. Salary or oommlMioh.
