THE CRIME WAVE?

To hear few people talk one would
think that terrible wave of crime has
swept the city, that the city is fairly
inundated by this wave And all this
talk is caused by few holdups, some
thing that seems to be taking place
all over the country at this time.
Why. no matter what happens, or
what is going on, isn't it our boast
that Hamilton is always up in front
in the thing? Why, if there wasn't
few holdups in Hamilton at this
time. and which is the real thing today
everywhere, we'd have to be ashamed
of ourselves as being too insignificant
to be recognized even by robbers,
! thieves and holdup men
But that isn't the idea of the big
noise over the "crime wave" 1t is
done by few to discredit the police
department. The percentage of
crime in Hamilton is not near as
great as in other cities of the same
size. The efficiency of the Hamilton
department is as great as any of the
cities of the same size, and far great
er than most of them With the linn
tied number of men at their disposal,
Safety Director Grevey and Chief
Stricker have been doing splendid
work and should receive credit for it.
Hamilton has one policeman for
about every 10 square miles of terri
tory, yet every time there is a crime
in that one mans particular territory,
some people just can't understand
why that policeman wasn't right
there to capture the criminal. Quit

WILL you HELP7

Newspaper reporters find it increas-
ingly difficult to run down the news
happenings Of a community. The COM
ings and goings of people are not 80
easy to get as they once were. Once
the reporter haunted the railway sta
ton and picked up much of his new
matter there. But the station no long
yields up the personal mention i
once did. More people travel by autx
than by train and so personal event
the gonigs and comings, escape tn
eyes of the news gatherer.
That makes it all the more import
ant that readers turn in their news
TENS at the newspaper office. Tha
is the only way to insure that a men,
ton of something interesting which
has happened in or to your household
is duly chronicled.

The same principle applies to the
attempt to get rid or skin diseases
by local applications Of salves, oint-
ments. lotions. washes. &c, renne-

skin, which can have no real cor

disease. Water cannot be boiled
until every atom has been thor

by applying il in the proper way.
