DOOMED MEN 'SURE' THEY'LL SIDESTEP DEATH Confident to Last That Reprieve or Intervention Is on Way. H*r I* thf third and last of a hHh of article* dealinr with the population of Sine Sine death house and the pres-ent-day trend of major crime. BY SIDNEY B. WHIPPLE United Press Siaff Correspondent OSSINING. N. Y., July 25.—Not one of the twenty-six death house prisoners at Sing Sing—or rather twenty-four, for two were executed Thursday night—believes he will go to the chair. Somewhere between their cells and the instrument which will blot them out, some night, in l-720th of one second, they believe there will come a staying hand. A higher court may intervene to give them anew trial. A reprieve may be allowed, to present asw evidence. Finally, th*> ouTtmor may find mitigation, somewhere in their records, or in their youth, or in the muddled brain that was the cause of their downfall, and so grant them commutation. Keeps Them ‘Contented’ It is this eternal hope, hope that is allowed to linger with them until the night they are to go, that keeps them, to outward appearances, the most contented of Sing Sing’s citizens. Content doesn’t show itself on the outside of the deathhouse, but it has its brighter scenes. Here, in the main prison, fully half of the inhabitants are accepting the opportunity to repair the lamentable lack of education with which they entered prison. 800 at Prison School More than 800 of them attended the prison school, getting the rudimentary elements of an education —reading, writing, arithmetic—during 224 school days last year. And fifty-two determined men, fired with ambition, applied for and obtained permission to take advanced correspondence school courses. The average prisoner cares little about fiction, and least of all about blood-and-thunder novels, mystery stories, or detective tales. Instead, he asks for books on engineering, shop practice, technical work, and Information that will held him learn a trade. For many of them this “stretch” provides the first opportunity they ever have had to do-anything but provide themselves a hazardous, insecure living through crime. Given regularity of work, their food and' clothing, and a few hours a day in 1 which time hangs heavy, and their natural recourse Is' to bocks. Prison Chiefs Worried Prison officials will tell you, however, that Sing Sing is overcrowded sadly, that there is a lack of laundry facilities and sanitation equipment, and that with the state providing food for 2,200 —and a populate of nearly 2,6oo—Sing Sing officials are worried. “If crime continues to Increase and judges continue to sentence in proportion to the crime,” they say. “we will be faced with a crises.” A “crisis” may be a riot, though the word seldom Is mentioned In official circles.

PAPER DRINKING CUPS HELP TO PREVENTCOLDS Ends Danger of Spreading Disease Germs in Public Places. It Is impossible to determine how much is lost in industry and merchandising each year through the physical ills of people. It has been estimated that the lurking germ that causes the common cold actually costs the people of the United States each year about $2,000,000,000. That is a larger sum than most people carry around with them for small change in these days, and it is a direct tax on industry. Some of it can be saved easily. The common drinking cup causes a large percentage of this loss, for it has been tried and duly convicted of carrying germs of a large number of respiratory diseases in addition to the cold. Other people’s germs are far from a satisfactory addition to the menu, and one’s system has to fight enough of these pests without going to the water cooler and challenging a lot more to get busy. There might have been some slight excuse for common drinking cups before the sanitary paper cup made its appearance. Now there is none, for the Ostermeyer Paper Company of this city maintains not only a complete Frigidaire—Crystal Spring water service, but sells the Burt drinking cup as well to those who want to stay well. No office, factory, or public place should be without these, if only for the protection of the health of the employes. Even if not desiring to use their rental service to get healthful drinking water, one may telephone the Ostermeyer Paper Company, 148 Virginia avenue, Riley 6902, and end the menace to health by beginning the use of Burt paper drinking cups.

Swimmers Guarded in Hotel Pool
One pleasant way of forgetting the warm weather is to take a refreshing swim in the pure filtered water of the Hotel Antlers Egyptian tile-lined pool. The Antlers pool is said to be the only indoor pool in the city operated with bathing beach rules. Safety is stressed and mothers may send their children there without worrying, for they always will be under the eye of trained life guards. There is a continuous flow of water through filters that extract the impurities, and the water is tested regularly by the health board to assure its safety. “Every man, woman and child should learn to swim, taking lessons only in a safe place, according to R. I. Griffith, hotel manager. For those that wish to learn to swim, the Antlers pool maintains* both a man and a woman instructor giving both individual and class instruction. Club membership is not required for swimming. The pool is open from 10 a. m. to 10 p. m. Swimmers may use their own swimming suits or rent suits of the latest design. The pool is spoon shaped, ranging from three and one-half to eight and one-half feet in depth. It has a standard Olympic diving board. A fall swimming class is about to be organized with some of the best swimmers in the state competing with swimmers from other cities and also in local contests for prizes.

ARTIFICIAL LAKE PLAN RECEIVING WIDE APPROVAL
Conversion of Industrial Site Into Park Is Progressing. Much comment has been aroused by the projected transformation of the old gravel and sand pits at Raymond and Harding streets into a park. The idea not only saves a considerable amount of land that appears of no value in its present shape, but it also promises great development for that section of the city. A lake of the magnitude intended there, of cool spring water surrounded by heat absorbing greenery, even will change the climate of that part of the city. The project has attracted much attention from out-of-town persons, for other cities have the same problems of a shortage of park facilities and a plot or two of vacant ground that could be improved so wonderfully. Location Is Excellent With Indianapolis pioneering the way, no doubt the same movement will be taken up in a number of other inland cities. It is believed the citizens of Indianapolis will receive more genuine enjoyment from a park located in this neighborhood than they could from most of the sites available on the outskirts. A park right in the city, with a 200-acre lake, and with the modern amusements provided for a large section of the community, will prove as popular as anything undertaken in Indianapolis fn years, in the judgment of those who hqve given the subject thought. Wish Park for Public While the idea of the promoters is not to commercialize the project, the possibilities along that line have appealed to a number of amusement project promoters, so there is a movement for purchase of the tract and converting it into an amusement center. Those in charge of the development, however, are not anxious to see it take this form. They want a park the public of Indianapolis can enjoy to the utmost, a health spot as well as a recreation center, and thus far they have resisted all temptation to permit the place to be commercialized.
