That's us, l guess" replied Lieu

a warrant to me house. so dat's why
I'm here. Wha'chu goin' do about
it?"
Plainclothesman Brex pricked up
his ears at the confession of the little
bad man. Then he led the boy to
a seat in the courtroom, where two
of his companions were anxiously
awaiting their fate for like offense.
Louis Beers, owner of a house at
Mott and Bowery streets, complained
of a gang of boys who were break
ing the windows and demolishing the
interior of the place.
All three boys chorused when they
heard the complaint, Twas Swan
duka's gang that done it, not u.s."
The court then listened to the
doings of the leader of this gang,
"Tony Combotsky," who, the boys in
court said, rules with an iron hand
in the Mott street section. HE gives
YOU a beating if you don't play
'hookey.'" volunteered one of the
boys.
The youthful bad man will have
his career suddenly shortened when
Brex rounds him up.

MT. LAKE PARK
TO BE IMPROVED
Report That Place viii be Sold and
Made Into a Popular Summer
Resort

That Mountain Lake Park will be
made more attractive and popular
than at any time during it's history
is evidenced by the well founded re-
port that West Virginia capital It's
have offered the Park Association
$137 900 for the tract of 500 acres and
valuable franchises held under the
charter of the association.
1t is stated that the stockholders Il
the association met recently and au-
thorized the sale, empowering com
mittee composed of ID. e. 0ffutt, of
Oakland: J, w. Young, of Cumberland
and Judge Elliott, of Baltimore, to
consummate it. While there is a
stipulation that the mark shall remain
as a Christian summer resort, it is be-
lieved that the improvements con
templated by the syndicate will make
the place more popular for those who
go there for rest and pleasure. 1t
understood that the syndicate will
spend $4,000 a year in improvements
for several years, if the deal is ol-
animated.

heart that the American people are fit
for complete self government and that
in spite of all our failings and short
comings we Of this republic have more
nearly realized than any other people
on earth the ideal Of justice attained
through genuine popular rule. If the
courts have the final say so on all leg
islative acts and If no appeal can lie
from them to the people, then they are
the irresponsible masters of the people.
The only tenable excuse for such a
position is the frank ayowal that the
people lack sufficient intelligence and
morality to be fit to govern themselves.
In other words, those who take this
position hold that the people have
enough intelligence to frame and adopt
constitution, but not enough intelli-
gence to apply and interpret the con-
stitution which they have themselves
made.

fallible, but / do say that our whole
history shows that the American peo-
pie are more often sound in their de-
cisions than is the case with any of
the governmental bodies to which, for
their convenience. they have delegat-
ed portions of their power.
Just as the people and not the su-
preme court under Chief Justice fancy
were wise in their decisions of the vi
tai questions Of their Gay, so l hold
that now the American people as a
whole have shown themselves wiser
than the courts in the way they have
approached and dealt, w,h such vital
questions of our day as those concern
ing the proper control Of big corpora
tons and # securing their rights to
Industrial workers.

DON'T SEND DUns
POSTAL CARDS
Postoffice Department Puts Ban of
Practice Of Many Business Men
RuIino is Very Strict.


Recent instructions from the most
office department make it necessary
for the local gas companies, several
fraternai organizations and some
business enterprises to make a change
IN the form Of postal card statements
heretofore issued by them. No postal
card which bearssthe statement of a
past due account, whether marked on
the postal card or not, is mailable
and postmasters have received in
structions to use special vigilance in
the matter.
Some difficulty has been euperienc-
ed in getting a definite statement Of
the style Of card which is mailable
from the postoffice department, and
several forms of statements were sub
lmitted for approval or rejection. A
fiDal reply showing the departments
ruling regarding the matter has been
sent out.
Cards notifying a patron that an ac-
count will be due in a certain time
and mailed before the account is due
are mailable. Cards that bear a state
ment of an account already due,
whether designated by the words de-
linquent, arrears, ETC., or NOT are I'M
mailable.
The ruling OF the postal department
will probably result in more rigid
enforcement of the rules of the local
enterprises. especially the gas COM
pa1ies, regarding the collection of
accounts. The chances are that bills
will be increased if patrons get in
arrears. The only way a statement
OF an account past due can be mailed
to creditor is by letter
Local companies mailing postal
cords notifying patrons of accounts
which viii be due at date after the
mailing Of the card would do well to
confer with the postmaster or his as
Isistant before having the cards print
ed The insertion of one or two
words may make the card unavailable.

Policemen have been instructed to

bathing suits in their progress from
hotels 70 the beach and that they have
a reasonable" amount of covering
while disporting themselves upon the
beach.
Here are few comments heard:
why, it's worse than Asbury park
in the strictest time"
Perfectly shocking, mean this hav-
ing to dress up to go in bathing"
What is the use of making a trip
from New York or Philadelphia if we
can't see anything? We might as
well stay in town"
Thousands of young. men, as well
as old. and quite a few women, showed
that they were disguised.
