thought of reform is foreign to such
a one; and, unless there is a change
of viewpoint, the day of release is
waited for when one may do as he
pleases.
The prisoner may be young in
crime or serving his first term. In
addition to the prison being a place
of incarceration it becomes a school
of crime, the teachers of which are
those who may be styled as “old
timers.” Crime

Nolle Me their guests this week the members of for his imprisonB , ent , hta plocI , in
the subject of religious work at the
Farm. Tho outcome of that visit was
a determination on the part of thc
Kiwanis to inaugurate a movement
looking toward a permanent organiza
tion to aid released prisoners to get
hold of themselves, to aid them in
finding employment, and to keep in
touch with them after they have been
returned to society.
The task given the committee is no
small cne. Georgia has no organize*!
tion which is at the gate to welcome i
and aid the released prisoner. The
Department of Public Welfare has
several division** of work but Prison
Aid is not one of them. The task of
the committee is to work out into
shape some form of organization
which can create public interest in
the prisoner, .and at the same «time
crevate in the prisoner an interest in
such nn organization.
The committee to undertake «'»ch
a task is* Rev. Geo. B. Thompson,
chairman; I). M. Rogers; Rev. F. H.
Harding, the Prison Chaplain; B. H.
Dunaway and W. E. Ireland.

ilher fallacy is that
it will be a waste of time and money
to attempt to reform a “jail bird” in
view of the many failures to thc
credit of those who have attempted
the role of reformer.
On the assumption that the days
in prison were spent in building up
.he desire to reform, that the prison
er reacted favorably to every uplift
ing agency which appealed to him,
and that he passed through the prison
gate, carrying with him the determi
nation to make good, how shall he
put his resolve into practice? To
whom shall he turn for help? Who
will hold out the hand to give the
aid which is so necessary?
Society has turned from the one

may not be .a “steady stream" of re

being released from time to time.
What do they become the possessors
of when they are released? If we have
not been misinformed they are given
a suit of clothes and a ticket back
to the place from which they
sentenced. It may be that a small
sum of money has been added to the
above. But we must not forgot the
brand which society has placed upon
them.
