are adopted it win greatly improve not only their sp
but facilitate their identity We would suggest
that leather belt around the waist would much i'm
prove the appearance of the and at he same
add tn towards the recognition of the police de-
partnent. The word 'poceD the caps must be
larger Think Of hat, Mr.. Chief Matsell.
