"The store that appreciates your business
within themselves." If a man stays in
the first grade," the superintendent (
says, after explaining that the prison
er may go into the A, B, or C class on
entering, "he is an honor man. He
will not wear stripes. He will not be
worked under guns. He will not wear
chains. For every day he works he
will be paid 10 cents. For every four
weeks that he st?.ys in the honor grade
he will be given eight days off his sen
tence, 104 daz' out-of every year. Be
an honor man and win out.
"When a prisoner, first comes he is
put in first or second class, for lae
State trusts him and expects him to be
a good prisoner. If he .decides to go
in the low grade it is up to him. He
can stay in tne first grade if he will.
The State wants him to stay, and if
he is man crough to make a good
prisoner, he has a chance of getting
ouc before his sentence expires.
"If a man stays in the second gr.de
he will not have to wear regular prison
stripes; he will .earn five cents a day,
and win six days out of every four
weeks, or 78 days a year, off his sentence.
"If a man determines not to stay in
'th' first or second grade by bad be
havioral he says by his choice that he
wants to wear stripes, wants nothing
off his time, and wants no pay for his
work. And he is not willing to meet
the State half way.
"The State will consider the claim
of every man for a pardon or parole if
he shows himself worthy. This, too, is
up to him. If he wants to be consid
ered he must be in the first grade. No
j man can come up to the parole board
J and as kthe Governor to parole or par
idon him unless he first quits wearing
btripes. If he does his duty his case
will come up jor consideration in due
time whether he has any friends on tho
outside or not.

can win for yourself. - I want you to

Of course, this isn't all that Collie
means to give the prisoners. They
have their Christmas tree to night and
they will have some holiday, but he has
j hung up more hope on the walls of the
.prison than they have yet received
and that will doubtless do more for
jthem and society than a man whose
, prison ideal is a farmer who has work
