WOMEN POLICE MAKE
GOOD, LONDON SAYS

LONDON, Oct. 2t,-After ten months
of trial the higher authorities of the
Metropolitan police have decided that
women police officers have made good,
and the 100 now on duty will be re-
tanned. They must be Of good educa-
ton, possessing tact. kindness and a
sympathetic nature, willing to work
seven hours a day for $40 a week, and
be READY at all times for duty.
TIE force was recruited from the
patrol workers of the National Union Of
Women Workers employed by the com
missioner in 1916 to aid in the protec-
tion OF the city. They did excellent
work, but last November 1t was felt
that the pressing need for them had
passed, and they were d~isbanded.
The cessation of hostilities, however.
brought thousands OF young officers
from the fighting front to London, and
the fear that an orgie of dissipation
might follow the rigors Of life In the
trenches induced the police to retain
100 picked women for duty in the night
life sections.
Their work was preventive in a large
measure, particular attention being de-
voted to young girls VINO might be at
tracted TO such places. SO well did
they carry out the plan that their per-

nized.
These policewomen may be seen any
night In the West End, covering reg
ular beats near the theaters and hotels
in pairs, dressed In navy blue, with a
business-like cap and regulation whis-
tie; they work under the direction OF
a woman chief, whose headquarters are
in Scotland Yard. II a woman Ia ac-
costed by some man VINO does not
know her she can cause his arrest by
| appealing to the woman officer, and II
frequently happens arrests are made
without complaint.
All women applicants for the force
are trained for eight weeks in the reg
ular duties of a policeman, but they are
not sworn in as c~onstables, and they
are only liable for such duty as the
commissioned may direct,
"All our women are most carefully
chosen said their chief, Mrs. Stanley
but we have no place for the 'prudt
or the prowl.' "

CHICAGO, Oct. 2l-Coru jumped up In
price today as y result OF action by tGe
railroad administration putting into
force the permit system OF moving
grain. Arrivals Of corn at primary
markets were expected to be minimiZed
Opening prices ranged from iac TO lTc
higher, with December S126 to Sl.26ia
and May Sl.24 to 1,24S, but were fol-
lowed by a reaction after the initial
rush Of buying had been satisfied.
Later the demand proved to have
far less energy than had been looked
for and the market weakened owing
more or less to the depressing effect OF
a big drop in the price OF hogs, Ths

<(THEY call me movie fan, and
the folks at home call me q
movie fool" said one oil
Omaha's biggest business men.
II never told my wife the truth.
She thinks / 60 to the movies to re-
lax from business cares and have
a few hearty laughs. I do both, but
as a matter of fact. when I am at a
movie, and especially when a sneak
off alone, l get back to kid days.
If my wife and daughter, or daugh-
ter-in-law, knew that I wanted to
see shooting and fighting and rough
stuff they would turn up their high
brow eyes in disgust. I don't ad-
nit it to anyone but myself, but the
real fact is, / want to see the kind
of stuff pulled that every boy dreams
he is going to do himself. That's a
stage that no one but q former boy
can appreciate, and really, we're only
boys grown up, and some of US
never get real grown. / would
rather see a good screen fight with
bare hands than Mary Garden in a
81 100000 worth of clothes. Fact"

Strand-Bachelors will probably
smile complacently when they see
the photo-picture why Smith Left
Home" to be shown at the Strand
theater for the last times today. and
say, Il told you So" Certainly no
man ever had more cause to brand
marriage a big mistake than h:s
Bryant Washburn, as Smith" the
young bridegroom. Full of high ex-
pectations, he eloped with pretty
girl, then through series of funny
accidents wasn't even able to kiss
her for a week. Only by masking
as bandit and stealing his bride
was he able to start his happiness
right. The picture is from George
Bradhurst's farce by the same name
and abounds in mirthful situations.
Moon-Any hard-boiled anthem
mist who thinks that women cannot
be successful as doctors should see
Bessie Barriscale in Kitty Kelly:
M. D." at the Moon theater. Well
guarantee that after observing
Kitty" diagnosing heart troubles,
lung affections and kindred all
ments, the h. b. a. f. will be strong
