Any 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 crimnal is a hen friend of the common man, and if you can get by with wha you want to do you have the right to attempt On the other hand thc conscious- : of disgrace may .awaken in the rig prisoner the desire, to “about face*' and begin life anew.

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.
