With its small area and the great popu lation and a large proportion' of "big" criminals the United-Kingdom has been worried much over questions ot 1 crimino- logy. Yet the English- have now evolved;

In sundry respects, nono the less. the

life of the com ict differs from that of short~term man in what is called a local prison. Thoreare three distinct periods

or stages in a sentence oi penal servitude. The iirst is that of “probation," a time of
