ordinances in their possession.
Besides instructions on this point.
every policeman must familiarize him
self with the time tables of all railways
in Rock Island and Davenport. the
schedules on the street car lines suffi-
cient for general information. and
must learn the location of all of the
streets and avenues for the purpose of
directing people to any particular place
without delay
Policemen must be informed on all
these things" says the mayor. They
are on the streets not solely for the
purpose of arresting drunks. but have
a greater public service that must be
fulfilled"
Instructions tn Firemen.
The mayor this morning convened
the f1remen at the Central hose house
and gave them their instructions. They
will have daily drills the same as the
police, and will practice in the opera
tion of their paraphernalia. They too,
must know something of the ordinan-
ces. and each man was given a copy to
study. Upon learning that none of
them had library cards he informed
them that he would fix them out with
the privileges of the public library in
order that they may put in their time
profitably.
White Wings.
The street cleaners today made their
appearance in white wings and here
after will be garbed in that uniform
while on duty.
