Motorcycle Men Will Arrest Those
Going Over Ten Miles Near Schools.

Motorcycle police in lieu of traffic
Officers will be used in an effort to
minimize accidents near close-in pub
lie school. This was the decision an
nounced by Fire and Police Commits
sioner Wright Friday.
1t had originally been planned to
station traffic men at every public
school in the business or clOse-in resi-
Dental districts, but because of the
limited number of such officers this
was found impracticable. Commits
sioner Wright Friday said that he
would place Captain MOglia in charge
of this particular traffic. Captain Mog-
liza will distribute his men TO the best
advantage.
This action is due to an unsual
number of accidents in which pupils
have been injured in crossing the
streets since the opening of schools
this month. Last week three pupils
were injured in three days. two in one
day in front of the BOnham school,
on Garden street.
1T has long been violation of the
law to drive motor vehicle faster

BOARDING HOUSE FOR PETS
Institution for Care of Dogs and Cats
Planned by Humane Society
In Kansas City.

Plans for establishing a boarding
house for pet animals. principally dogs
and cats. were outlined recently by
officials of the Wyandotte County HUI
name society. The plans will be sub
nitted to the board of directors by
Miss Sarah Jacobs, president.
The dog and cat boarding house
would be self-sustaining. Miss Jacobs
said that the plan contemplated would
require the construction of suitable
sheds, pens, a run or playground for
dogs and a modern system for disln-
fectant to guard against disease.
II have had more than 100 calls this
summer" Miss Jacobs said, "from re
sponsible persons who desired to pay
for temporary home for their pets
while away on vacations.
1T appears comical tc establish a
boarding house for dogs and cats. but
the proposal has serious side Many
animals are valuable, and dogs roam
inf- the streets while owners are away
on vacations often become rabid."
Miss Jacobs said provisions would
be made to give lodging to horses and
cows if the demand was great enough.
The boarding house would be under
supervision of veterinary surgeon
