ND. STATE coNSTABULARY
ATTACKED AS USELESS

ANNAPOLIS. Feb. 17.-State po-
lice were characterized by several
speakers before the Senate Com
mission on Judicial Proceedings yes.
terday as a dangerous potentiality.
The hearing was conducted in the
Senate chamber, the speakers being
marshalled by James l.. O'Donnell,
Of Baltimore.
DR.. Mercer Green Johnson, Of the
American Civil Liberty Union, said
the plan of having a State constabu-
larry has been barren of results
wherever tried, and that It was
ridiculous to think Of thirty-five
young fellows giving protection to
the farmers.
Miss Amy Gugenheimer, Of the
women's Cooperative Union: A.
Johannsen, Of the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America, and
Clarence w. Taylor. Of the Ameri-
can Civil Liberty Union, also spoke.

AS explained by Captain Carpen-
ter. the rlan in brief is:
Each applicant found worthy and
we'll qualified Is supplied with a
blank form petition, which he car
ries to residents OF a certain as
signed district for signatures. The
signatories pledge themselves 10
pay 81 a month each for night pa
trolling and policing Of the district
in which they reside. The man thus
obtaining sufficient signatures Is
supplied with a police badge, armed
and put to work as night patrolman
in his prescribed precinct. He Is an
authorized member of the city po-
lice force, for whose services the
City Treasury Is not assessed. He
reports to police headquarters by
telephone each hour between 8 p.
m. and s o'clock in the morning.
The city Is divided into patrol
zones which interlap, the patrolman
OF one zone encountering his fellow
officers of two neighboring zones at
regular intervals of half an hour.
Lincoln has not recorded a serious
fire in the residential districts since
the soldier patrol system got under
way. Burgiaries apd automobile
fhefts also have been reduced to q
minimum. Liquor manufacture Is
virtually nil. In fact. the home
section OF the city Is said to be the
best policed Of any place Of like size
in the country.
Meanwhile, there Is little com.
plant OF unemployment among ex,
service men who can show honor.
able discharge papers. Lincoln
veterans are working-and eating
regularly, Legion officers say.

Under the able dictatorship of the
Associations presidents, Mrs. James
4. O'Brien, and the assistance of the
vice president, Rev. Harold Hanson
nd other members of theassociation
the evening proved to be big sue
:ess in the way Of a reception and am

he evening reception, line was form

ers and the rest of the, residents Of
the town. and community passed by
and met and 7 shook hands with, the
members Of the board, and the teach,
,rs, both old and new. The new teach
ers that the public had not met were,
he Principal, Prof Meyer and Miss
emma Tresler. After the receiving
line, a game called left hand hand

by a scenee from Midsummer Nights

was presented by the dramatic club
f Mrs. O'Brien., It was Highly enjoy

'xcellently in their parts. A. fast and

everybody by this time was working
up an appetite and the announcement
Of grub" was welcome sound. The

this one important item, as everybody
had been asked by the accociation to
give. something towards the lunch.
And they responded nobly, for there
were nigh unto twelve baskets full''
left over, which were taken to the
school house the next day and given
to the grade children there.
No evening can be complete with
out it's speakers, so when the crowd
was feeling contented, short talks
were given by several Of the gentle
1 men of the town. Rev. Hanson acted
as postmaster. Among those who
gave talks were the president of the
school board, w. J. Bickert; Prof.

National Dairy Ex-
position [ i Next Week

One Thousand head OF pure bred and
$50 to 500 head Of grade dairy cattle
two miles of modern factory machin-
cry and barn equipment, a $4,000
"Healthland" show for mothers and
children, 5000 standardized chick
ems, a farm home phonograph dis
play, junior dairy cattle breeders from
all over the country and a score of
breed association meetings will chal-
lenge the interest of visitors to the
importance Of the dairy industry when
the 1922 National Dairy Exposition
opens its gates next week in the Twin
Cities. s 54ss y :S.,. $ S
This great educational factor in
agriculture has made two conserva-
tive visits to the Northwest, giving
this region the benefits of 16 years
continued success in showing the
American public the value Of dairy
products and their effort on the
health and strength of the nation.
It: is improbables that the show will
soon return to the Northwest. Conse-
quently the farmer who has not com
pleted plans to attend, thinking he
will have another chance next year,
;is likely to miss its money value to
him in his own farming operations.
81 why miss 1t when it is in your
front yard :" is the epitome of opin-
ions expressed by members of Gov.
]. a. o. Preus, Minnesota committee
which for q year has been making
arrangements for the expected 2oO,.
900 attendance. g' 90 ssS, t

this great exposition and see Ameri-
cas- dairy industry on review SO they
can return home with fresh ideas and
scientific information to start their
work for the 1923 # World 8 Dairy
Congress. II It. is worth while for
these men to spend $500 each to at:
