1T MADE A GREAT DIFFERENCE

A noted physician. particularly ex-
peditious in examining and prescrib-
ing for his patients, was sought out
by an army man whom he polished
OFF, in almost less than no time. As
tho patient was leaving, he shook
hands heartily with the doctor and
said:
II am especially glad to have met
you. as l have often heard my father,
Colonel Blank, speak of you"
what" exclaimed the physician,
ARE you old Toms son?"
Certainly"
"My dear fellow" cried the doctor,
"fllns that Internal prescription in the
fire and sit down and tell me what is
the matter with you"

POSTAL DRIVER
WITHOUT GUN
Firearms Lay Unopened
When Bandits Held Up
Driver in N. Y.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S-A consiSn-
ment of fire arms that lay unusued
in the New York postoffice when
automobile bandits held up and
robbed lone, unarmed mail
truck driver of $1,454.129 last
Monday night was out today do
ing duty on the persons of guards
who accompany similar trucks
through the city's streets.
One of the first things Postmas-
ter General Hays discovered when
he arrived to take charge of the
robbery was that large shipment
of guns sent to arm New York's
postal employees still were in their
shipping cases. He ordered them
unpacked and put to work. He also
ordered Investigations to determine
who had been responsible for their
non-delivery to employees.
Mr.. Hays said he would see to
the enactment of a law providing
for more severe punishment of mail
thieves.
'"The mails are sacred" he said,
land laws should be enacted that
make even thieves respect them"
An effort is being made to con
meet the New York robbery with
the recent band of mail thieves in
Los Angeles.
