mary task Of the bicycle patrol and
the fact that its members can pedal

tance of suspicious character
makes them especially valuable in

Thorough acquaintance with the
criminal and suspicious characters
OF Tulsa is something that Blaine
believes essential to the successful
maintenance OF order. To make this
possible he has inaugurated the
nightly showpp of prisoners, some
thing used generally in ali of the
larger cities. Each night when the
shifts are changed the prisoners are
required. one by one. to step up on
a platform and stand beneath
strong light while the officers scrutl-
nise their features and listen mean
while TO a history OF their records.

The new shift marches in columns of
twos from the station TO Second and

place officers scatter to their sew
eral beats.
These are the outstanding fea-
lures of innovation that Blaine has
made as head of the city police force
during his comparatively brief term
of authority. The young police chief
has under him 1i0 policemen-40
patrolmen, 25 detectives, 90 traffic
men and 20 bicycle patrolmen.

Canned Food Industry
Mere Hundred Years Old
Started by Frenchman

LOUISVILLE. ky.-A history Of
the canned food industry dates back
100 years. according to n review at
the recent convention here of the
National Gamers association. v
The process began to be worked
out simultaneously in New York and
Boston. Thomas Lemsett and Ezra
Daggett OF New York, succeeded In
1875 In canning or packing In q
crude way aalmon, Holsters and oys-
ters. In Boston William Under
wood and Charles Mitchell, using
heat. succeeded in packing damsons,
ounces, Cranberrles and currents.
Up until this time the canning of
food, one OF the most important in
dustries of present civilization, was
unknown.
Started by Trenchmnn.
Credit for the discovery OF the
method OF keeping perishable goods
by heat and sealing in alright con-
tainers, however, belongs to a
Frenchman, Nicholas Appert, APP

In the discovery that food could be
preserved by using heat and putting
the product in sealed containers.
The theory of the process, how
ever, was unknown to Appert and II
was not until the time Louis Pas

covered bacteria that the scientific
basis of canning was understood.

PUSS IN BOOTS, JR.
BY DAVID CORY.

Puss Junior and Tom Thumb were
quite sad at parting with Tary the
Welshman and his kind little wife; but
even the best OF friends must part, SO
they said goodby and again resumed
their journey Of adventure, and by and
by they came to the sea. where on the
beach lay a small boat, So Puss picked
up Tom Thumb and jumped aboard. and
pretty soon the tide came in. and the
little boat foated once more. and then
Puss hoisted the sail snd set OF On a
voyage OF discovery. And wasn't 1t

began TO sing;

"Not at ALL" replied Puss; but the
little Owl in the pea-green boat taught
me a few things, and the rest comes
naturally to me, I guess. Perhaps I'm

laughed and commenced to sing again:
"OT on the bounding sea we float,

Over the foam as white as snow.

These are the words we used at sea

''Where did you learn that song7"
asked Tom Thumb.
Didn't learn it." replied Puss. Made
It up as I went along! I feel so jolly
sailing away, why, even don't mind
getting wet with the spray!"
After a while the sun went down in
the west and the big moon came out and
looked down on the little boat, with Puss
Junior at the helm and little Tom Thumb
by his side. And the little boat raced
along. and the big waves lifted it up
on their white-crested heads and then
let it down again quite safely, and the
evening breeze sang a soft little lula
by. so that by and by Tom Thumb went
sound to sleep.
And pretty soon Puss closed first one
eye and then the other. till, all Of
sudden, Captain Puss Junior went sound
asleep at the helm. But the little boat
kept right on its way until 1t bumped
