POLICEMEN URGED
TO CARRY Cheese
Head OF Washington Force Tells
PatrOlmen How to Keep
Up Strength

When should policeman be fed
and how?
Should he be released from duty long
enough to cheer his way on the beat
with a cup of hot coffee and cream
puff or should he keep up the strength
so necessary for the protection of his
wards with a cheese sandwich?
This problem took on an official COM
plexiOn this week in the Municipal
Record. The Record is published bv
the city and county government and
has the weight of authority behind it's
ideas. So when it cites the experience
of Major Sylvester. head of the force
at Washington, d. c., it is presumably
for the benefit and guidance of the
local police
In Washington a patrolman lost two
days out of his annHaI leave because

Il always carry crackers and cheese

the major who lectured the culprit on
his neglect of this simple precautiOn-
MARTIN NEEDS No CHEESE
As Major Sylvester has a wide repu-
tation for strenuosity his secret of
success was pOUnced upon by others
the Municipal Record among them.
While admitting the possible efficacy
of cheese in the uncertain climate of
the east Chief of Police Martin said
yesterday that there was nothing like
two meals a day and plenty of San
Francisco fog.
L have never in my experience had
to resort to cheese" the chief remarked.
"A hearty meal before going on duty
and another at the end OF the eight
hours watch should keep a man here
in the best kind of condition. Most OF
us, think. eat too much, and the work
of the average patrolman is not so hard
that he needs the extra nOurishment.
"On the outskirts. where the officer
must cover lot of territory, a hunk of
cheese may add to his content. 1t may
also add TO his efficiency in diverting
his thoughts from the yearnings of an
OverambitiOus stomach.
FREE LUNCH COUNTER BARRED

ficer is likely to be put, / must admit.
are quite likely to overcome the good
gained. The squirrels of the park are
Justly said to be the most fearless in
the country while the rats that have
escaped Doctor Blue have developed
sagacity and daring without parallel.
OF course the officer might use his he'll
met as a cneeSeOoNr ana as most OllceFS
are smooth shaven the rodents could
obtain no fOOthOld."
Chief Martin then went on 10 say
that the local department had always
been lenient in dealing with the trusted
men of the force. On proper applica-
tion to the sergeant leave may be given
to indulge in coffee.
The only kind of eating we posi-
lively forbid" added the chief, "is that
which comes off the free lunch counter
1t offers too much of a temptation TO
daily with the goods on the other side
of the room"
A time honored precedent gives the
San Francisco policeman the right to
conf1scate any peanuts or bananas that
try to impede his progress while he is
on duty. This helps some.

BIDDERS SECURE
GEARY ST. BONDS
Nine Whose Offers Prove Sue
cessful Put Up Coin for
Securities

The first deliveries of Geary road
bonds were made yesterday by City
Treasurer McDougald,. Nine of the
bidders whose offers were accepted by
the board of supervisors last Monday
brought the coin to the treasury and
received the city's securities in ex-
change.
McDougald took in a total of ST. 900
besides accrued interest and in some
cases premium from the following sub
scribers: G.. W. Bennett. $21 900: H. NJ
Bennett, $4,000; E. ". Bennett, 10000;
w. B. Marshall. $1,000; NJ Mcdonald.
$1,000; II. c. Farquaharson, $4,000: A.
B. Broyer. 100000; Charles Fiske,
$4,000, and ]. r. Stephens, $4,000.
The state board of examiners have
referred the question of the bonds va
lidity to Attorney General Webb. as
required by law, and upon his recon-
mendation will accept and pay for the
S50,000 worth of bonds bought by the
commonwealth.
Residents of Richmond continue to
petition the board of supervisors in
regard to the proposed routes of the
system. I. Kaisten of 81 Balboa street
(B street, suggested yesterday that the
line follow Point Lobos to Twenty fifth
avenue only, then diverging down
Twenty fifth to Balboa and out that
highway.
Inquiries for the new issue of bonds,
for which bids will be received August
?, continue. A bid of $50, 900 was pre-
pared yesterday for submission before
the date of opening and the supervisors
expect an oversubscription of the Sc
curities, and that the city will receive
small premium on the $4,000 now
offered
