Jl IX.K C KKATliS SO( IAI, ( IJM< PITTSBURGH, (UP) A “social clinic” to eliminate guesswork by the sentencing jurist is the vision of Judge Ralph H. Smith, youngest man ever to preside in Allegheny county criminal couit. Before Judge Smith completes his six-month assignin' nt on the criminal bench in August and returns to the common pleas division, he hopes to see punishment tailored to the individual instead of the crime. Psychiatric and physical examination of every defendant are th< main instruments with which ho hopes to institute the most far-reaching reforms the local court has known. Judge Smith’s plan parallels to some degree that in use in federal courts and embodies desirable features of systems used in Chicago. Detroit. New York and Baltimore. For all his bluffness, his unswerving willingness to crack down on the racketnicn and habitual offenders. Judge Smith made it plain that he Is deeply concerned over the sentences he is obliged to pass “blindly.” as he puts it. "In all humility,” he said, “I coneider it a matter of grave importance to reach into a man’s life and take out a year, two years, four years, from the only life that he has. “When I’m belting a racketeer for r lengthy stretch, often I think of the changes which have come about in my life in that same period of time. My children have been born. Relatives have died; some married. These things and more will happen in this defendant’s family while he is in prison. “Why, then, should I sentence him without knowing that bis crime, perhaps, was the result of a mental wrinkle which could be ironed out with proper treatment ? “Perhaps he should be released, hospitalized or given institutional care. But where? We don’t know —row. "But with our social clinic, the judge’s function will cease to be a guessing game. The criminal courts will cease to be a batt leground where prosecution and defense play a game in which the judge sits as a more or Uss impartial arbiter.”

"What's the matter, dear?” Terry asked. "You aren’t going to tell me Again that you won't be doing right t>\ marrying me, are you? is u u lust a waste of breath.

What were those papers — and why the mystery?” "Answer your own riddles. I don't care. Probably that old hag is double-crossing her partners — but What is that to me?” "But secret papers—” ".Snap out of it. These aren’t war time:- and so what's the use <-f spies or secret agents or such? Give me a smile now. You’re a bride or will be in a few minutes.” Suzy said no more of her worry — but even while they were pledging the vows which would bind them for life, she felt she was deliberately pushing something into the back of her mind, something she would have to face another time. When they returned to Terry’s room, Suzy cried out in delight.,

• excitement as the police shouted orders for a pa -age to be cleared for them. There was no escapa .here. Perhaps the back stairs at least she would try. She ran Inn^ riedly. Thank God. the back of the house seemed empty and the key waji In the outer door at the foot of the stairs. She crept quietly out just ns she heard the police mount- : ing the stairs. She remembered to straighten her hat, to walk calmly as if she were out for a little stroll. She passed a few men and women but at first they were too absorbed hurrying to see what had brought out the police, to notice her and as he wound her way from one street ; to another, she knew that for ihs moment at least she had escaped. I "She's gone,” some one screamed, as the crowd entered Terry's room and found him lying on the floor. "Get the murderess.'' "VVe'll get her, all right,” said one of the police. Suzy knew her feet must be mov- , ing, although she felt as if she were 1 standing still. She knew because sometimes she was in a dark, little street, sometimes in a wide, lighted one. Or was she dreaming? Was it •ill just a horrible nightmare? Would she wake up and find Terry comforting her, asking what her bad dream had been? She thought she would hail a taxi | and ask to bo driven a long way, any way at all. But she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to speak. Perhaps the driver would notice something strange about her. Best to take no chances. It was too late to go into a park and sit down, tihe must keep on walking. Where she went she never knew. As long as she was to live, she never could remember anything dear about that night — except ono thing. Perhaps she had been walking in something like a circle. For suddenly she saw she was opposite the house where Terry lived. It

DROUGHT HURTS GARDENS The continued hot and dry weather has seriously damaged thousands of gardens in Indiana and this Central States area, yet there is still a chance of having a good fall garden, by timely planting now. Scores of letters have been received the last few days from! over Indiana by the Agricultural Extension Department of Purdue University. The early planted vegetables that would normally mature during' early July have practically burned up j and even good rains at this time would not save many of the gardens. Naturally rains are expected but before (hoy come tic vegetables that | are past redemption should be pulled j up. the ground worked over and seed , planted of such vegetables that will

mature.

Ordinarily good weather is expected to last from October 1 or 15 in Indiana and this Iimvcs approximately 70 to 85 days of growing weather. The latest safe planting date would start by subtracting from the normal expected frost date the number of days it takes to mature the variety. Green beans. Bountiful or Stringless Green Pod, will mature fiom 45 to 60 days, that would give the last planting date about August 1. Sweet corn of the early and Gilden Bantam typos need 70 to 75 days although corn will withstand adverse conditions bettor than beans. Some of the early maturing cabbage varieties, such as Jersey Queen, Jersey Wakefield, Golden Acre, Resistant Detroit and Wisconsin Pride, need 60 to 70 days to mature after transplanting and also require approximately three to four weeks for growing the plants. A favorable fall would produce some good cabbage. Broccoli, cauliflower, and Kohlrabi mature along with cabbage and all withstand light

| frosts.

time.

Turnips may be planted as late as August 1; spinach for the fall crop August 1 to 15; lettuce, kale and endive from August 1 to August 15. Seeds that are planted during thej hot and dry weather should have the noil well firmed over the seed to insulate to some extent against the heat and also to make good contact with the soil for quick germination when the moisture is sufficient. Gardeners are urged to make plantings now for the fall garden. | NEGRO \TEEAGE LORES CHARTER IN SO. CAROLINA CHARLESTON. S.
