It is now more than a year since the old safety board, which formerly had control of the police and fire department was dissolved and in its stead were created two separate boards of police and fire comn1is- soners to have complete supervision of these respective departments. De- spite the publicity given the fact, it is surprising that today there are many business men who do not seem to realize it. In numerous instances bills are addressed to the safety board" with the result that they in- varia'bly reach the wrong commission causing annoying delays and much confusion. Under tre existing system the fire board had complete charge of everything pertaining to the fire de- partment, it's operation and mainte- nance. The police board has full juris- diction over police matters.

The legal fraternity in this city has long been dissatisfied with tn city court room accommodations and dur ing the past year, since the court has been extended so that it is civil court of unlimited jurisdiction, to say nothing of it's added dignity as a naturalization court, the feeling has become intensified. The approach to the court room, through police head quarters, is anything but pleasing. The chamber itself is an unattractive, dingy place, the ventilation is poor and odors from an adjacent stable are ofttimes objectionable. Added to these faults, the place is at times al- most unbearably noisy. The puffing of steam trains, the creaking of wagons and other outside comm otions often interrupt the proceedings. AS a result the lawyers have decided to seek a change and a petition is to be prepared and presented to the com mon council asking permission to use the council chamber for the sessions of tn city court and naturalization court. There is apparently no good reason why this petition should not be granted and it will do much to lend dignity to the court. It should be understood that the lawyers want this tention of asking permission to hear criminal and other police court cases there

All war activities--tl1e draft exam nations, the Liberty Bond drives, the Red Cross, K. of C. and Y M. c. A. campaigns etc.-have each produced their funny story about town. and so has the present War Savings Stamp campaign. The story is told Of an em- ploye of a local factory who is noth- ing, if not thrifty. He appreciated the worth of War Savings Certificates and agreed to take s1,000 worth and to pav in cash. Further explanations however, showed him that if he took his stamps this month the certlfi- cates would cost him but IT cents, whereas if he waited until next month each one would cost IS cents. Where- upon this thrifty individual put forth the proposition that he wanted to buy the stamps this month, but would like to wait until the first ot next month before taking the money out of the bank-so he would not lose the interest on it.

To Remove Grease Spots.

The removal of grease spots from
n carpet or rug Is not an easy matter.
One of the most practical plans is to
sprinkle hot cornmeal and whiting
over the spots and leave for two or
three days. brush off with stiff brush
and repeat till the spots are gone. Or,
of there is not the least danger of fire,
the powder may be covered with gaso-
line and rubbed hard till the gasoline
evaporates. Then sweep clean.

THE NEW SHUTTLE GAME.
An INVESTIGATOR Traces 1t to the Fa.
milfar Pastime Hare and Hounds.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: I
have read In THE SUN that credit is
to be given Public Service Commissioner
TIubbell for the introduction Of the new
shuttle system between Times Square
and the Grand Central Terminal
This shuttle game Is as old as the
hills. A similar game mas been played
by the boys in and around Central Park
for years past. The game, as the boys
know it, is called ''hare and hounds"
The hare preceding the hounds indicates
the direction in which he goes by plac-
ing an arrow on q stone or any other
convenient spot that will receive a chalk
mark. The hounds are supposed, fol-
lowing the arrow. to find the hare.
This is Just the condition of affairs
at Times Square The hare is the shut
tie train and the hounds are the people
following the green arrow pointing to
the Grand Central Terminal. There Is
very little difference between the game
played by the boys in Central Park and
the one forced upon the people every day
between Grand Central Terminal and
Times Square.

to prove that he is q God fearing
citizen, whose only desire is to live
In harmony with his neighbors. The
murderer, having done to death all

Ing burned the barns, the mills, the

withdrawal seek to convince the
nearby dwellers that he is a gentle,
law abiding person, Of unImpeachable
conduct and ambitions.

Grubst takers.

A correspondent advises The SUN
to send a writer on visit to Colo
RADIO, Utah and Nevada to get at
mosphere for an understanding of
the difference between a grubstaker
and prospector. Needless! THE
Sun does not lack the advantage
which would result from such a visit
for such purpose.
All grubstakers are prospectors,
but all prospectors are not grubstak-
ers. The grubstaker is "staked" be-
cause he has shown valuable instinct
for finding gold, and therefore has
a patron who pays him enough for
what he finds to encourage him to
go forth and find more; the gold
seeker who scorns q grubstaker and
insists upon being called a prospector
has an instinct for finding salaried
employment, and having found that
for himself seldom finds gold for
others.
If our correspondent will take note
Of certain noises to be heard between
now and November's election day he
may discover some who have failed
in politics raucously declaiming their
merits as statesmen.
The sun., 1918-10-03

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-SE: We
desire to draw your attention to the
work done In February of this year by
Mr.. William Guggenheim. a trustee Of
this society. who fathered the pleasure
carless Sunday idea. He issued an ar
peal through the American Defence So
ciety at that time to the automobile
clubs and owners OF cars throughout the
country, urging that they make three
successive Sunday pleasure carless
days" and invest the money they would
have spent In gasolene in War Savings
Stamps. On a basis OF 100000 pas
senger cars in the country It was esti-
mated that II only one-third of the
owners observed one carless day $s47,,
222 would be saved In gasolene alone
for investment in War Savings Stamps.
This figure was reached by allowing
only fifty miles to a gallon OF gas or
1,3SS,SSS gallons, at twenty-five cents.
His suggestion received a great deal of
support throughout the country, not only
In the newspapers but from automobile
owners. who pledged themselves not TO
use their cars for three successive Sun
days and to invest the money they
would have spent In War Savings
Stamps. II. ID. CRAIG,

yards men who never made more than
SIC or SIS a week in their lives and are

This condition is brought about by
the Government policy of giving out
contracts at cost plus 10 per cent
article to cost as much as possible. for
the greater the cost the more his 10
per cent. profit comes to.
This very thing Is one Of the main
causes Of the present high cost OF living.
1t Is q waste Of public money and should
