 forcement of the laws; they may att tend meetings and sit down in comfort able chairs to applaud denunciations of officers whom they will not lift finger to help. The one remaining thing which would say is this: We may to- night in some measure thank Chief Wrinn that in comparison with other cities we have so much upon which we may congratulate ourselves. Perpet- ual activity is needed that we may keep up to the lest civic music; but we have no need to be ashamed of this city of our work, cur homes and our love-"
 Professor Phelps was greeted with a Yale cheer when he arose to speak on
 'Yale and the Chief" In resume he said:
 I've meet tonight to do honor not to an official but to a man. He is one who has always borne his honors mod estly and has never. been puffed up with pride at them. Sometimes the students and the police literally come together. There are about 5000 young men at Yale and on the whole they are a good lot Of course there are bound to be some bad ones in that large number, but the wonder to me is that the great pent up energy there does not break out more often in those abomir1able action that we deplore.
 T do not believe that students should have on the city streets any special privileges over any other citizens and never feel regret or feel sorry for those who are arrested for wrongdoing. Whenever they do wrong they should be arrested the same as any other, shall I say, undesirable citizens.
 T know of many fine acts that Chief Wrinn has performed that few are aware of. Perhaps the finest is what we see in him tonight. Some men grow old as years advance and get out of sympathy with the younger generation. But he is younger tonight than he ever was. Although he has seen the worst side of life for many years and has lived through the dark est phases of humanity he remains fine intemper, sweet in heart and buoy ant as If he had never communed with any others than angels. Truly with the poet we may say: The best Is yet to be, The last of life for which the first was made"
 Dr. Watson L. Phillips was the next speaker. He spoke of the value of public testimonial when man had done good work and said 1t was a good thing to come together and tell him what they thought of him after his service was ended. tWe must take off our hats,' he said, Ito such a rec ord as that of our chief"
 Jacob B. Goodhart took the chief from the side of a friend and told of how when he was IS years old the chief became his first hero by the cour- age he showed in a fight and conquest | of a great big bully.
 "I fully appreciate this privilege of
 testifying my love and esteem and that of all of Us for-T can't call him any, | thing else-4'Shorty,i Wrinn. Our pres ent chief has been model policeman. I know voice the sentiments of all
 when say, Old Father Time, deal 1 gently with our beloved frlend'"
 Father Coyle also gave an eloquent l testimonial and appreciation of the re- l tiring chief and the beauty of his ca.
 reer and ended with the expression oi the hope that when the end of life
 came he might hear the Father say;
 "Well done, good and faithful servant
 Enter in the rest which has been pre-,
 pared for you"
