HOW HE RECOGNIZED THEM
Youthful Picture Gazer Was Not Im-
pressed by Beauty of the Faces
of the Madonnas.
ad
An art missionary was giving an ex-
hibition of pictures to a crowd of set-
tlement children. One small boy
seemed especially interested in the
Madonnas and listened attentively to
her explanation of the meaning con-
veyed by each picture.
When half a dozen Madonnas had
been shown he cried out excitedly:
“Here's another of them like we've
had before!”
The earnest young woman turned
with surprise. “Why, did you really
recognize it?” she questioned.
“Yep—yer c'n spot ‘em every time,”
was the prompt response.
“Can you, truly?” she queried,
touched and pleased.
“Surest thing you know!” the small
critic replied.
The art missionary thought a mo-
ment, then said softly to him, “Yes,
you are right. You can distinguish
them from other pictures. There is a

Greensburg.—Dr. Martin Griffith of
Monessen, Pa., who was convicted on
a charge of voluntary manslaughter in
connection with the death of William
L. Robinson, was sentenced to six
months in the Allegheny county work-
house. Sentence was imposed by
Judge L. W. Doty in criminal court,
who presided at the physician’s trial
some months ago. Attorney Adam
presented a petition to the court ask-
ing that the physician be paroled, but
Judge Doty refused to grarnt the pe-
tition, which contained the names of
several hundred prominent persons,
including several ministers. Dr. Grif-
fith returned home from Europe only
a few days ago, and “while there had
a degree conferred upon him for dis-
tinction in surgery by the Royal Col-
lege of Physicians and Surgeons,
which met in London. He was to
have gone to St. Petersburg, Russia,
to receive another degree, but was
unable to reach there on account of
the war. In refusing the petition for
parole, Judge Doty said that Dr. Grif-
fith was “guilty of a heinous crime,”
and as he had received a fair and im-
partial trial, he should not go unpun-
ished. Dr. Griffith was convicted here
last May on a charge of voluntary
manslaughter, in connection with the
death of Prof. Robinson. The attack
took place at Dr. Griffith's home in
Monessen, and at the time of the trial
it was alleged that the dead music
teacher attempted to attack the wife
of Dr. Griffith when Griffith went to
her assistance. Robinson died as a
result of the injuries inflicted by Grif
fith, it is said.

Canneries in This State,
sylvania Department of Agriculture
has been working in conjunction with
the Bureau of Economic Zoology to
prepare a list’ of the canneries of
Pennsylvania. This is now completed
and is in the bands of State Zoologist,
H. A. Surface, Harrisburg, Pa., who
will supply free of charge the infor-
mation as to the location of canneries,
and name and address of the owner
or superintendent of each respective
company. Such lists should be ex-
tremely valuable to fruit growers who
may be wondering what to do with
their surplus fruit during this year of
such remarkable abundance.
It 1s naturally, and no doubt cor-
rectly, predicted that fruits will be
scarce next year, and, consequently,
it is but natural to believe that they
will then be much higherin price, and
the canneries can, consequently, use
them this year to advantage.
The list prepared by the Depart-
ment shows canneries in each of the
following counties:
Aaams, Allegheny, Beayer, Bucks,
Bradrord, Oumberland, Delaware,
Erie, Greene, Lancaster, Luzerne,
Lycoming, Montgomery, Union and
York. Itis hoped to make it com-
plete with a view of aiding fruit grow-
ers and others who may have perish-
able fruits for sale, as well as helping
consumers. It will be published in
the next Annual Report of the De-
partment of Agriculture, and in the
meantime any person desiring knowl-
edge of canneries in any one or more
counties of the State can obtain this,
free of chstge by writing to State
Zuologist H. A. Surface, Harrisburg.
