ters building was erected.
There the patrol wagon drivers
and the motor and bicycle police

leaving one of their number to lis

In this way the police officer on
quiet nights did not find his work
very exhausting and often WIS able
to pass the following day fishing or
hunting.
But that has passed, for after the
mattresses were burned that same
force of janitors dragged the iron
cots from the bunk room and stored
them in the attic Of the police garage.
The whole affair took place when
It was decided the room used as a
city morgue would be turned over
