general diversion that he would get the

been offered to one who Is "out Of com

by his ardent friends Of Far Rockaway
for the post But il Mayor Mitchell Is
by the great unknown who
Is said to have been rendered the COM

IT has been said Of Devery that he will
give New York any kind Of police force
that IL wants. which may be interpreted

A Plea for the Teacher.

If 1 were a youngster and were going
back to school,
don't believe that I'd annoy the teacher,
as a rule;
For teachers have serious time. They're
busy day by day
Discovering the shorter cuts that lead to
Wisdom's way.
And sometimes when you hold tomorrow's
lesson in great dread.
Your teachers working hard upon the
lesson just ahead.
She's always striving earnestly her duty
to fulfill
And hoping you'll all like her-which I'm
confident you will.
Remember that her feelings may be very
much like yours
Regarding the restraints which every
studious mind endures.
She'd very much prefer vastly longer
holiday.
No doubt she's fond of skating or of rid
ing in a sleigh.
Don't picture her a tyrant with hard
and naughty heart
She'll try to help you like her if you'll
only make a start.
Don't bother her with mischief and with
foolish little jokes.
A teacher values kindness just the same
as other folks.
