THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, AUGUST 5, 1910, looooe epoooeooeooeooeeoftooooooeoo WILLING TO WORK 10 WOMEN PRISONERS I Vr ' . . . T V City Jail Inmates Are Glad to Engage in Profitable Employment. PRISON LIFE MORE CHEERY Three Girls Eagerly Tie Quilts Be cause Time Passes' Quickly and Each Say's Work Is De- . ducted From (Sentences. They were tying; a quilt, three cheer ful young: women, grlnejham-clad and comely. The girl In the pink wrapper . bummed a tune as she deftly knotted the fluffy wool strands that hind the cotton. Plenty of sunshine came through the windows, striking' the colored flsrures-of the quilt pattern attractively. The three were the first Industrial training: class of the women's depart ment of the City Jail. Tying- the quilt meant that their sentences would be shortened, that they ' would have a small fund of cash when released, but most of all, that the long: days of im prisonment were quickened by the pleasant occupation. Girls Like Employment, "Like it?" repeated the girl jn the . pink wrapper. "I should say we do. It's much better than sitting" in the dormitory, with nothing: to do." Municipal Judge Langrg-uth. who planned the industrial training: class as a means of profitable instruction and employment for women prisoners, made his first visit of inspection yesterday. "Why, are there only 'three girls here?" he asked In surprise. "That's all. judge." replied Matron Patterson. "You'll have to send us Borne more." "I believe Judge Langgrnth likes to rend us to Jail," ventured one of the three; "he always gives us such long sentences. Now don't you. Judge?" "Not much!" came the denial. '1 hope the day is coming when there won't be a girl here to tie a quilt. I think It is coming and I'd be glad to see my Job as Judge go under, those conditions." Orders for Quilts Received. The industrial training class is try ing its respective hands at tying quilts for the present and a number of orders already have been received from per sons who are interested in the success of the plan. The quilt under way at the time of the visit has been ordered liy Mrs. Lola G. Baldwin, of the Women's Protective Bureau. The three young women besought Judge Langguth to explain to them the advantages won by their industry. They were told that four hours' work would be credited for each day and that one day would be deducted from their sen tences for each eight hours of employ ment. In addition they will receive a minimum of 15 cents for each eight hours. Should the venture prove self sustaining and show a profit, the wage scale will be increased. When the, women are released they will receive their wages, as well as having learned Useful lessons. Women Experienced Workers. "Now there are lots of girls," ob served Judge Langguth, "who never tied a quilt, I'll bet." ' Whereat Dolly tittered and turned away from the quilting frame. "What's the matter now?" inquired the puzzled Jurist. "Well, if I had a dollar for every one I've helped tie, I wouldn't be here." said Dolly. "Nor I," added the girl who thought Judge Langguth's sentences over-long. The three prisoners have worked one full day of eight hours. Last night they sought the calendar and counted one day as won from the sentences they are serving. PYTHIANS APPLAUD BAND Kignor lerullo Wins Favor of Visit ing Delegates at Oaks.

ONE day Bennie Dog's mother told him she was going a long distance with Mr. Man on a business trip and she would not be home until night, and that Bennie Dog must watch the house. and especially the pantry window, for she had two big pans of milk with rich cream on it, and she didn't want any one to steal them. Bennie Dog sat on the steps in the sun. He had eaten a nice dinner of bones and meat and was thinking about taking a nap when he saw Tom mie Cat coming down the road. Bennie Dog thought of the pans of milk in his mother's pantry and how very much Tommie Cat loved rich milk and cream, and then he thought of something else, and he slid into the house and locked the door. Bennie Dog went into the pantry ooooooooooocooceooooooociooacoacoo! PORTLAND GIRL WHO WILL BE f it and put a big pall of water in front of the window. Then he covered the wlndowsill with butter and put a sau- icer of cream on the sill. And then Bennie Dog hid behind the pantry door. Tommie Cat came down the road and looked at Bennie Dog's house. "I guess no one is at home." he said, swinging his tail and looking at all the win dows. "I wonder if Bennie Dog's mother has left the pantry window open. It looks like rain and I should like to do Bennie's mother a kindness. I think I will take a look." Tommie Cat walked slowly around the house to the pantry window. "Yes, it is open, just as I thought." he said, "and there Is something on the sill, too. Now, if it rains It will spoil what Is In the dish." Up jumped Tommy Cat, and when he saw the cream he licked his mouth and swung his tail about very fast. "Too' bad to have that cream wast ed,' he said. "If It rains it will spoil the cream, and if I eat it it will not be spoiled and Bennie Dog's mother will be no worse off, so I guess I'll eat the cream." Tommie Cat. gave another look about the pantry, and then he saw the two pans of milk. "Goodness!" he ex claimed. "I didn't know there was so much milk in the world outside a cow. "I have heard It said that a thunder storm will make milk sour, and I feel quite sure we are to have a thunder storm. I believe I will eat that milk and save it." And then Tommie Cat put his front feet on the greasy window sill, and It was all over in a second. Tommie Cat slipped and slid, and down he went right into the pall of water with a loud splash. Bennie Dog held on to his mouth to keep from laughing, but it was of no use. He burst right out loud, "Ha! ha!" he laughed. . x Tommie Cat was very busy scram bling out of the pail, but he knew that laugh and did not stop a minute. He sprang to the sill and out of the win dow he went and down the road he ran. with Bennie Dog laughing as hard as he could from the window. Tommie Cat shook himself as he ran. but he was shivering and he had to stop at last and lick himself dry. "I wonder if Bennie Dog was there all the time and saw me jump up on the sill?" he thought. Tommie Cat licked his paws. ""What Is that? It tastes like butter," he said. Tommie Cat tasted again. "It is butter," he said. "It is on all my feet and on my coat, too. Now, where did I get butter on me like this?" Tommie Cat thought as he licked himself dry, and then he remembered how quickly he slid through the ban try window. "I bet Bennie Dog greased mat window sill." he said. "'I'll re member that, and some day I will get even wnn .Bennie uog. , (Copyright. 1916, by the McClure New paper Syndicate. Ne.w York City.)

The per colator probably gives a more uniform result, but percolated coffee has a slightly different flavor than boiled coffee. If coffee is permitted to boil for any length of time the beverage becomes objectionable because an ex cessive amount of caffeine and tannin is brought out by boiling.
