DEFNING.
nUBIIc sentiment in favor Of better police protection
for the rural sections Of Delaware grows stronger
every day.
Those who live in the country and they and others VINO
use the country roads have realization Of the
fact that matter how many laws there may be against
highway robbery and other forms OF crime and mat
ter how severe the penalties such may be- such
laws penalties just well might not exist un-
less they be buttressed by police force which make
arrests bring such offenders to book before the courts
We have said repeatedly that, in view OF the many
which have been committed In the rural districts
within the last year something in the nature OF a
State consabuary should be established TO patrol such
districts repress highwaymen and other criminals and
also 10 compel observance OF the tramc laws and regu-
latons especially with respect to automobiles and auto
mobilists
this connection received yesterday the follow
ing letter from prominent citizen OF Odessa:
George Carter, Esq.,
Editor, The Evening Journal
Wilmington, Del
Dear Sir As citizen OF rural New Castle county and
the State OF Delaware desire 10 thank you for your
slant intelligent expressive and aggressive attitude 10
some form OF police protection for the people OF the rural
sections
You hit the nail fairly on the head last night
had just read lengthy report Of Mr. Charles Grubb
as 10 various suggestions laws 10 protect high
ways and the thought occurred to me- just how did he
expect these laws TO be enforced.
Your reference TO Senator somebody's" bill increasing
the penalty for highway robbery is apty expressed
We are loaded down with laws upon laws every one OF
which is violated nagranty every day and nobody
Everybody seems want TO pass the buck 90 somebody
else.
We do not want police force aaated with me State
Highway Department with the present State Detective
Department or any other department but state con-
stabulary unto itself commanded by trained and ef-
0clent poce officer irrespective OF his religion politics
You are in position and have the ability to do vast
amount OF good towards the establishment OF such a
force and trust that you will continue in your Intelligent
way 10 do So Very sincerely yours
CITIZEN.
Odessa Del, Feb. 2 1921
Tnat is an intelligent view OF the situation by a man
who knows what the situation and how dangerous It
is to both person and property.
It is not right that honest industrious and aawabdins
men women and children should be LETT at the mercy OF
social elements which defy the law and laugh at those
who are supposed to enforce It at their expense.

DRAWING BY SENSE OF TOUCH
Ono Of the Greatest Of Tests Of the
influence Of Thought on
the Sensea

For one who can draw IL Is not so
difficult to look at an object and de
pict It on paper. But to draw by the
sense of touch instead of the sense
of sight Is apparently not 80 easy; 1t
Is q good test OF the influence OF
thought on the senses, says the Popu-
lar Science Monthly.
In q demonstration Of mental draw
ing" the artist was biindfolded. In
structed to feel certain objects and
then to draw them. The result was
curious. A wooden toy representing
4 woodpecker was taken for a model
of q piece Of machinery. and so drawn
after a cursory examination. After q
more careful examination by the sense
Of touch alone. the artist made an al
most perfect drawing Of the real OBJ
iect. He actually drew the toy wood
pecker upside down. and did not know.
until he saw 1t, what II was that he
had drawn
The artist ran his hands lightly over
4 cloth-covered face, feeling the feat
ures. Again the mind tried to jump
to conclusions. The artist afncied the
concealed face to be that OF some one
known to himself. After bis fingers
had thoroughly explored the contour
Of the face he was able to make 4
more truthful delineation representing
what he had seen with his sense OF
touch.

In this connection ! recall the case
OF n certain pitcher who was prom.
ised 1000 extra II he won 20 games.
With only three weeks TO 80. the
pitcher had TO win three games TO
receive the bonus He had been
going badly, and added TO this was
the fear that he wouldn't come thru.
The club was In the fight for the
pennant. Its pitching strength was
crippled. and much depended on the
work of the pitcher with the bonus
contract. Ordinarily a pleasant chap,
who accepted the breaks OF the game
without murmur, he suddenly be.
came a crab with the umpires and
his fellow players. couldn't I'm
derstand II. until one OF the play
ers told me OF the bonus promise.
Fear that he would lose the extra
money made bad pitcher out Of
him, at time when his services
were most needed by his club. Knock
number one for the bonus syrtem.
A certain infielder. promised 5000
extra n he hit 900. reached that
figure with two games still to be
played He reported sick the next
day and missed the last two games.
The bonus caused him TO place
