A mans job is his best friend. II

dren, pays the rent. and supplies
them with the wherewithal to de-
velop and become cultivated. The
least a man can do in return is TO
love his job. A mans job is grateful.
II is like little garden that thrives

man the reason for his making good,
he will tell you that first and fore

indeed, he loves IL. His whole heart

William Cossey Planned Wet
New Years But Has Plans
Changed in Arrest

TOTTENVILLE, Dec. 30.-Wil-
liam Cossey. of Ellis street, Totem
Vile, haG made plans to celebrate
New Years in the good old fashion
way it is said and was vending his
way home shortly after 9 O'Clock
last night with what looked to be a
very suspicious looking bag accord
ing to Patrolman Charles Crossen of
the SO precinct station.
Crossen. or Diamond Dick as he is
generally known because of his large
collection of rare stones followed the
mar from the ferry for several
blocks and when at Fisher avenue
and Arthur Kill road, he noticed
that Cossey was evidently trying to
Lose sight of him and to hide the
bag he placed him under arrest. He
charged him with a violation of the
state prohibition law in having a
quantity of liquor in his possession.
Cossey was taken to the station
house and later was locked up in the
6h precinct station West New Brigh-
ton in default of bail. He will be
arraigned in court today. In his
possession when arrested was found
one gallon jug and one quart bottle
filled with liquor said to be whiskey
OF the m~oonshine variety. If Cossey
succeeds in getting out there is evil
IDENTIFY going to be q dry New Years
at his place instead of the wet one
which it is thought that he was
planning for that time.
