western Christian Advocate tells the
story of his brilliant idea and its
success as follows: "A police force
composed of boys under Is years of
age made the Fourth of July at Coun-
Gil Bluffs, Iowa, the most orderly 1t
ever has been in that city of $4,000.
Chief of Police Richmond conceived
the idea that if he could interest the
most troublesome boys in preserving
order he would have little trouble in
protecting life and property. = Ac-
cordingly he called in Is of these
trouble makers and gave seven of
them stars. constituting the entire
special police force These boys made
is arrests, Is Of the offenders being
boys. Instead of Furnishing the lat
ter. Chief Richmond asked them how
they would like to be policemen, gave
them stars and beats, and had no
more trouble from them. OF the re-
suit Chief Richmond says: NV bow
force was most efficient along ali
lines. and my expectations were fully
realized. Get close to the boys. trust
'em. reach their sprouting manhood.
and the problem is solved There was
neither accident nor violation of law
in the city all day The employment
of boys as special police was a shrewd
scheme. 1t should be adopted general
~. Boys would make boys observe the
law where men would fail"
