Each Had Throat Trouble Just Like
the Other.
AS the commuter who always board
ed the train at Paradise Hills seated
himself he was conscious that the
young man next him looked at him
with some curiosity as they exchanged
good mornings. For the first few min
utes neither one spoke; then the young
man broke the ice. You have a deli
cate throat, l see" he said commits
eratingly II used to be bothered that
way myself"
The commuter hesitated. There was
something about his seat mate which
invited confidence.
"Have YOU been married long? he
asked, with apparent irrelevance.
"Not SO very" admitted the young
man. WHY"
The commuter cautiously loosened
the bandage round his throat and,
turning toward his companion, display
ed an absurd looking, polka dotted tie.
"We've been married less than a
year" he muttered, land she gave me
six for my birthday"
The hand of his seat mate grasped
his in cordial, sympathetic grip.

year since | had my attack of throat

hall. Quite an amount of business
was transacted including two initia-

Credential cards were signed and
given out to delegates who expect to

for celebrating Flag Day which comes

day the ladies' deemed it wise to set a
different day, the date of which will
appear later. Preparations are being
made for an excellent program consist

the coming convention at which time
our Dept. Patriotic Instructor Flora h.

time, conducts the Flag Shower, whicn
is a new feature of entertainment AT
our encampment. Teaching patriot

ly the work of our order and w. r. e.
No. 2S6 feels justly proud that we
were among the first to present one of
these beautiful Flag Showers before
the public. Every heart, old and
young, beat with renewed pride as

The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1908-09-01

An interesting experiment was
tried recently in London. An inveSti-
cation of the police force of the me-
tropolis was undertaken, and every
man and woman who had grievance
against the police was invited to for
ward statement of his or her case.
There are some seventeen hundred
policemen in the London district,
charged with the duty OF looking
after more than seven million people.
They make on an average about 420,-
900 arrests a year. The materials
therefore were ample for the produc-
ton of complaints. What happened
as a result of the investigation is in
teresting told in Harper's Weekly by
Sydney Brooks. From first to last,
it appears, the committee received
only 800 complains, and of these only
ninety-nine contained charges of mis-
conduct of varying degrees of gravity
more or less definitely formulated
against members of the force. Nine
teen of these came within the terms
of reference and were exhaustively
examined. The committees report
amounts to careful and disposition
ate vindication of the force.
