Excerpt from Social Progress of Alabama: A Second Study of the Social Institutions and Agencies of the State of Alabama, Made at the Request of Governor Thomas E. KilbyThe prisoners of the State were, most of them, employed on the convict lease system which was condemned by your self and by two successive legislative committees in 1918 and 1919 as being inhuman and cruel, beyond expression. Most of the convicts were employed in coal mines, without the protection of guards employed by the State. The pris oners occupied rude barracks constructed by the leasing companies. The buildings were old and unfit for use. The prisoners slept on wooden, swinging bunks suspended from the ceiling, with thin husk mattresses and no springs. The bedding was dirty and abominable. The dormitories were overcrowded and badly ventilated. The food was badly cooked and served and lacked sufficient variety. The pris oners presented a wretched and neglected appearance.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Santa and the elves have been making presents for the children for many years at the North Pole workshop and everything has been going very well. Sometimes, however, one of the elves does something unexpected. When Zero accidentally breaks the toy assembly line, he almost causes some children to go without their presents. Santa is a little upset with Zero, and Zero wants Santa to be happy again. He devises a plan to do something no elf has ever done: sneak onto Santa's sleigh as he's delivering the presents to the children. But this adventure backfires when Zero gets into some mischief, and Santa is even more upset. In the end, Zero finds a way to bring a special Christmas spirit to some of the children of the world. Zero the Slightly Clumsy Elf, a sequel to How Santa Discovered the Elves, shares a holiday story full of Christmas cheer.
