POOLING THE POLICE
Six Harvard Men Have Lots or Flu.
With a BARRIERS Pole.

Not a great while ago party of half
a dozen Harvard students were in a
barber's shop in this city, says the Bos-
ton Transcript, and after having been
beautitied and adorned tonsorially, one
of the number was struck with an idea.
1t was communicated to his compan-
ions, and without a dissenting voice
agreed to. The proposition was moth
ing less than to purchase the barber 8
pole, which was done, and a receipt
taken. Then the young men sailed
forth with their striped and parti-col-
ored acquisition. They had not gone
far. however, when they were over
hauled by policeman.
Hello. therel what are you doing
with that pole?"
That's our business"
You're business, eh? "Well I'll
make it mine. Come along with me. {"
They were marched straight to the
nearest station, and stood up in line
before the captain.
What's the trouble. oftcer?" asked
the captain.
STEALING BARRIERS pole"
The officer felt quite proud of his
capture, and related with particularlty
all the circumstances of his arrest.
Captain lllS
and was about 10 order them to be
locked up for the night when one of the
students produced a paper and sug-
geSted that perhaps the captain might
like TO look at that. The captain
looked at it. Then, turning to the
policeman, he SAID: "Oflcer, you
may return to your beat" A moment
later the students might have been
seen filing out of the station with their
tonsorial standard held proudly aloft,
They had not gone far, however.
when they were again brought to a
halt by another officer, who, like his
predecessor, wanted to know where
they were going with that pole. He
was informed that that was their busi-
ness, and he in turn assured them that
he would make il his business, which
he did by escorting them to the self
same station which they had Just
quilted.
What's the trouble, officer?"
"These fellers have stole barber s
pole, and"
Every well; you may return to your
beatl''
The captain smiled as he dismissed
the students Hardly had he resumed
his unwonted gravity of aspect before
the door opened and again entered a
policeman, six young men and a
barber's pole.
And so II went on. Six several
times were the students and their bar
berous property bought by as many
different policemen into that station,
and had not an officer been specially
sent out TO warn all patrolmen under
no circumstances to interfere with six
young men and a BARRIERS pole it is
more than likely that that pole and It's
bearers would have been brought into
that station as many times that night
as there were patrolemen In the dis
trict.
People who wondered what was the
cause of the hilarious laughter which
| proceeded from the usually grave and
quiet station on the night in question
are now fully informed OF the same.

or eight inch square OF birch bark has

caught with a pin This impoverished
