4 new rule adopted by the police board and which will be recommend cd to the common council for enact ment into an ordinance would affect supernumerary police. who will automatically retire from service on reaching the age of 50 years.

GAME IN DEFEAT.

An Englshman, Havcrs, won the British open championship over Hagen, the American, last years win ner. Americans, Smith and Kirk wood the latter now making his home in the United States. finished third and fourth, while Farrell fin- ished eighth. Thus we have four from this country among the first eight.
 If Hagen had won again the achievement would have been given great publicity and even those not especially interested in golf would have cheered another American vic- tory But from the accounts of the final match there seems to be as great a reason for such cheering as there would have been had the for mer champion from this country re- peated his success.
 Hagen was fighting against odds. He was three strokes behind the Englishman mp to almost the very last. At the end it was necessary to accomplish almost the impossible twice in succession in order to tie Once he succeeded-he executed wonderful shot which required dar- ing. skill and the highest nerve-cour- age. And then came the second chance. He failed to repeat the Utmost impossibls-" He had lost.

SERVICE PAYS.

1ays Roger Babson: The reason neople lose money on many of their ! investments is due to the fact that they select them with an eye only to possible profits without consider ing the service rendered. If you will be sure instead, to put your money where 1t will render a service, profits will come almost automatically"
 MT. Babson's article deals primar- ily with water power. But this does not detract from the soundness of the advice given. Apply the principle 10 any investment and the truth Of this statement is apparent. It is simple creed, and one the clearness of which is apparent the moment it is mentioned. But "get-rich-quick" thinkers refuse to accept the plain fact.
 MT. Babson illustrates by referring to the 100000 horsepower in New York state which is now going to waste. This waste, he says, if trans lated into commodities would be suf- ficient to supply the bread require ments for that entire estate. He recommends investment in water power.
 'Is my money. invested here. going to help add to the wealth of the world 2" is the question the wise in- vestor should ask. If it will. he need not worry about profits. They will come.

WHAT nnEs IT MEANs

Naw Pennsylvania has made the | liquor enforcement act ineffective in
 that state by killing the apPFePFia-
 tieR for carrying out that act This
 is hut another hit Of evidence show- ing the protest an over the country,
 not against the Eighteenth amend
 ment necessarily, but against the pros
 posed manner Of it's enforcement or
 interpretation, And these bits Of evi'
 denee come from acts of legislators
 who do not dare go on record as do- ing anything that will be unpopular
 with their constituencies with a
 majority Of them.
 There must be some reason for the
 Fumors. the acts. and the failure 10
 aet-all showing antagonism 10 the
 way the Eighteenth amendment has
 heen made the inspiration for tho
 passage Of laws which the people do
 not want and which, quite probably. were not in the minds Of those re- sponsblc for that amendment.
 If we remember correctly it was the New Haven Journal-courier which presented the concise phrase; Tt is no longer a matter Of rum" Certainly the prohibition issue has inspired deep thinking and a vision that looks beyond the matter of drinking or not drinking. The "drys" smile at the argument Of the "wets" concerning personal liberty. And yet this. the very keystone Of the Con- stitution of the United States, is the vital aspect now seen beyond the superficial view which considers only the matter of prohibition in it's ordi- nary meaning.
 The chairman Of the citizenship | of the American Bar Association told the Tennessee Bar a association the other day of the great | benefits of the Constitution and de- nounced those who attacked it. In | m mentioning the things that menace the Constitution, he said: But above all the chief danger lies in men highly placed. men in the senate and house, lawyers who should know their constitution and its fruits. These demand that the safeguards of the Constitution, the interpretation by the supreme court, should be that the legislative branch should be the sole judge of the constitutionality of it's acts The moment this is done the judi ,iary and the executive would be orostrate at the foot of the majority n congress It is an astonish- ng thing that intelligent people should deliberately attempt to tear town these safeguards and turn the country over to mob rule"
 Every authoritative word spoken in avor of emphasizing the sacredness If the Constitution should be empha- ized. It's safeguards should be kept. And, similarly. every attempt to mod fy those safeguards, through action # a. temporary majority, influenced or the moment, should be de- lounced,
 Thus the important of maintaining hose safeguards, those rights it herishes transcends every tempo ary question upon which men differ. five emphasis to the Constitution nd, where there is doubt whether l r not some nasty action of body f men infringes upon that document mich has governed us while we have rown into a great nation, give the ' constitution the benefit of the doubt | nd keep from our statute books any ,easure which may be antagonistic , it's spirit. r

THE CITY's CLOCKS.

The clocks no longer boom
 Their hourly notice dull, Of sure and certain doom.
 Yet farmers like that lull, The iron tongues are still.
 No more will they alarm, Nor with their horrors fill. Poor Reuben on the farm. The brazen threats are dumb And full of cob-webs crowns. Like legislators numb.
 Who've gone to seed and blown. The clocks are minus hands The ploughman now commands. And cultivates the bean. Faces alone are seen The Bird of Freedom fell Near clockless tower. Its silent heart will tell
 Of unbridled power.
