All maintenance expenses of the institution are paid by the state. The pamphlet also shows the nuin ! ber of men committed to the State ; Farm, near Putnamvllle, from April 12, 1915, when the institution was opened to September 30, 1927, a total of 31,406. This class of offenders, be 1 fore the establishment of the State Farm, served their sentences in coun ;ty jails. More than half the committinents in the past three years have been due to violation of the

pii.-oin is ■ liquor laws. Petit larceny and as01 1 sault appear frequently in the re-

j cords. Most of the prisoners are native born white men past thirty years of age. Of the whole number committed to the institution, 14.3 f /c were between 16 and 20 years of age, 31.7Vi "ere from 20 to 30 years, 54', were 30 years or more. Tire percentage of those under 20 showed a

October 8-11. 1928 a resolution call ing for the appointment of a State Committee on Delinquency was pass ed. This committee was appointed. It consists of fifty representative citizens of the state chosen because if| their known Interest in the various I phases of social, educational, religious, moral and civic welfare.

RHEUMATISM IS BLAMED I OR M PKR CENT OF HEART DISEASE DEATHS

By International News Service

LONDON.—

Rheumatic diseases are responsible for 80 per cent of deaths from heart disease under 20 years of age, according to Sir George Newman, Chief Medical Officer to the British Ministry of Health. Speaking before a conference on rheumatic ailments, attended by medical men from the United States, 1- ranee, Germany, Holland, Belgium and Sweden, Sir George said: “The acute rheumatism of children is sowing the seeds of a growing harvest of disease of the heart and the nervous system. Chronic forms of rheumatism are very seriously crij>liiiig many hundreds of thousanda ofj people all over the world. “Closer supervision by parents and teachers should tie exercised over aQ children under the age of 14. The ' personal and environment hygiene of l (Children must b e steadily improved.”

aid Colman-Vilma Banky film, “The Magic Flame,” coming to the Vonca - tie Theatre Monday. Directed by Henry King, maker of “.Stella Dallas,” and adapted by Bess Meredith from Rudolph Lothar’s ,play “King Harlequin,” “The Magic ( Flame” is a story of clowns and counts, circus and court, love and

laughter.

Ronald Coiman plays two roles in the film, that of a clown and that of a count. It is Vilma Banky, an aerial artist, whom folman’s two characters love and struggle for. Into the warp and woof of that conflict Henry King has injected romance, surprising situations, humor, satire, physicul struggle, a pair of murders, a balloon ascension and parachute jump, a whole circus filmed in its colorful details, and directorial acumen such as the moviegoing public has come to associate with his name, says Manager Goodlunder of the VonI castle theatre. The action of the story occurs in ( a Mediterranean country, Baretti’s circus furnishing the background j against which Vilma Banky and RonI aid Coiman make love. It Is when Col- | man, the Clown, has triumphed over ; Coiman, the Count, that the locale is switched to the Royal Court, with the i Clown accepted on every hand as | King of Illyria. When Vilma Banky ] arrives at the court to avenge the i mi rder of her lover, the Clown, she does not suspect the true identity of the monarch. It is with the disentanglement of this tense situation that the plot thereafter is concerned.

One day from a far outpost of civilization in the unknown African jungles come a cry of discovery and a cry for aul. The missing link had been seen—an enormous monster of ape-like appearance and ferocious mien. Now the best efforts of a great hunter were needed to ensnare and subdue it for the purposes of science. I The call was answered. The dean of i all big game hunters preparing in England for an extended expedition into the wilds of South America suddenly changed his plane and set sail for Africa.
