THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Margaret Elliott, superintendent, “but the women usually find it j# easier to keep the hair done up than keeping it bobbed neatly.” Women over IS are sent to the prison. Prohibition has had its effect on the number of women confined in the prison. In the days of the saloon, the highest number was 178. Since then it has dropped as low as sev-enty-four. The present number represents the approximate average. Room after room in the basement formerly used as cells now contain stored supplies, Miss Elliott pointed out. A certain dark cell in the basement used for correctional purposes has been empty for several years. Smoked hams now hang in it. Six women are “lifers” in the prison. Escapes are few, and the honor system prevails. When a prisoner is received at the office, she is confined a week in a cell to detect contagious diseases. After that she is assigned to some department. Some work in the laundry, others sew or weave, and others prefer cooking. Ti\e institution Is largely self-sup-porting. Vegetables valued at $3,500 were grown on the gardens of the prison last year. The prison Tract of fifteen acres also contains cherry and plum trees. Stock rooms are filled with canned fruit. Clothing worn by the women, the standard prison garb, is made at the State prison at Michigan City. Shoes also come from there at prices ranging from $1.82 to $2.10 a pair. In addition, the women make toys and useful articles during spare hours. Toys find a ready market. Tiny chairs and hand-carved furniture sets are most common productions. “Most of the women want some sort of lace on pillow slips and do fancy handiwork in spare hours,” Miss Elliott said. Every cell room is kept immaculate. SYMPATHY IS EXTENDED Fire Department Adopts Resolutions on Mrs. Shank's Death. Characterizing Mrs. Sarah Shank as a “true friend to every man, woman and child of the city,” the Indianapolis fire department has adopted resolutions expressing regret at her death and extending sympathy to Mayor Shank.
