SHERIFF'S STAFF
TAKES DAY OFF
AlimonerS and Judgment Debt
orS Forgotten at Annual
Outing.

It's a long, strenuous and hazardous
year from summer to summer for the
members of Sheriff Grifenhagen's staff,
so the deputies, assistant deputies and
other members of the force thought
they well earned the day of pleasure
they enjoyed yesterday on their an
nual outing at Freeport, Long Island.
And those, not of the party, who saw
the carefrec way these agents Of the
law enjoyed their play would not have
denied them the brief respite from Of
fetal routine and obstreperous Judg-
ment debtors.
The party started from the Sheriff's
Office in a sightseeing automobile early
in the morning, stopping on the way TO
the Aumuller & Rothman Hotel and
grounds, where the outing was held, to
call at the summer home Of Sheriff
Crifenhagen at Freeport. AS Mr.
Grifenhagen is in the West on his va
cation, Louis Moskowitz, chief clerk,
and Mrs. Moskowitz acted as host and
hostess to the visitors.
Last years outing was held in Sep
TENDER, about a month after the Euro
pean war started, and Deputy Dan KEEL
ieber then announced that all discus
sion of the war would be tabooed. The
same order was given yesterday, and
although those two strongly pro-Ger-
man attaches, Durkin and Shannon,
several times were on the point Of VIC
lating the injunction, 1t was fairly well
observed.

SAFETY EDUCATION
IN CROSSING STREETS
Borough President Starts CAM
paign to Prevent Traffic
Accidents.

Shocked by the number of deaths as
a result of accidents in the last year,
Borough President Marks announced
Yesterday that he had started safety
first educational campaign for people
who walk.
Excellent speed laws and traffic
rules have been adopted" said Mr..
Marks, land the police are doing ex-
cellent work, Dut the fact remains the
same, that laws, rules and even the
police cannot accomplish the impossi'
Bile. The sly million pedestrians in
greater New York must cooperate.
Pedestrians should not cross
street in the middle of the block. One
who is guilty of this practice should
make his will and provide in advance
for his funeral arrangements.
"A beginning has been made in Fifth
Avenue at Thirty-fourth and Forty
second streets where have had safety
lanes planted on the highway indicat-
ing the proper place of crossing.
Drivers of vehicles must respect these
safety lanes"
Charles L. Bernheimer, president OF
the Safety First Society, will provide
banners at congested crossings which
will remind pedestrians and school
children Of safety first principles on
the highway.

Scores were brought to shore uncon-

went down Pennsylvania avenue, past

there was a funeral or circus in town.

the lumber teams had cut them up,

the note said, "and I can't wait until
you come back, aunty, but I have put

Hours and hours Ruth sat alone by
the kitchen fire waiting for the last
sound Of life to die out in the house

lock the doors, for she was a notable
took her invalid mothers place IS far
as possible in all things.
But while she was sitting alone by
the kitchen fire she heard a soft rap
at the window, and, looking up, she
saw Johns face in the moonlight, ear
nest and smiling as he beckoned to her.
In the instant the thought flashed
over her, proud and decorous Yankee
girl that she was, that he had been
spending the evening with Miss Greg
DRY, and it was worse than impairment
for him to call there on his way home.
She would not answer his summons.
She thought he would go away, and so
he did-from the window, but only to
come quietly in at the door.
Sitting down on the settee beside
her, he spread his hands over the dy-
ing embers to warm them and said,
with a slight SILVER:
"It is chilly out tonight, Ruth, and
have been thinking Of you"
She turned up her nose a little at
this; but, dreading to hear anything
more that she would think was false,
she told him very quietly:
II saw you go down the lane with
Miss Gregory early this evening. I
should think it most likely that you
had been thinking Of her since then"
John turned and looked at her, lots
Of fun trimming up in his brown eyes.
But when he saw how tired and sad
she looked he answered her gently:
"NO, little girl; I have been thinking
of you, as I said, and the last thing
did before coming here was to drink
cupful of tea and eat a niece Of Eia

ed they came in sight-they and a
bright plaid cloak which belonged to
the schoolmistress from Perkinsville.
Ruth set her teeth together hard and
tight.
So that was where John was going
for Thanksgiving-an she had been
up there taking tea-just as though
that girl didn't know that Aunt James
Prouty's was no place to go for tea,
and she down with rheumatic! Well,
she hoped he'd have a pleasant even
ing. AS for that pie-and she looked
at it ruefully-she'd taken too much
pains with that to waste it on a lot
Of overgrown boys and cider drinking
men. She'd give it to the pigs-that's
what she'd do with it. Nobody else
should eat it if John couldn't.
Then as she looked at the pastry that
had given her so much pleasure and
SO much disappointment she said she'd
give it to old Ma'am Jefferson, down
the valley. She was living there alone,
lonesome-like, and it would make her
Thanksgiving day happier to know
that somebody thought Of her up there
on the hill.
So when the cider and apples were
brought and everybody was fixed cozily
enough around the kitchen fire and in
the neat big square sitting room Ruth
stole out with the pie in her hands
folded in white towel, and, tripping
lightly across the fields, she knocked
at the door of the little cottage where
Ma'am Jefferson lived alone, but re-
ceived no answer. The latchstring
was hanging out. She pulled 1t gently
to rattle the latch; but, still hearing no
sound from within, she pushed the door
open and entered. No one was there,
but big Bible lay open on the stand,
and the iron bowed spectacles were
upon it. Ma'am Jefferson had evident
ly been called away in a hurry, prob
ably to see some sick neighbor, Ruth
said to herself, and she would be glad
to find some trace Of loving thought
fulness when she returned.
Then Ruth wrote little note, sad
