charges and complaints against the
slaAity or failure of the Police Depart
ment to properly perform its duties,
according to action taken by the as
Sociation at a meeting in the Fair
brother School, Tenth and L streets

This decision was brought abou,
through an effort by one of the mem
bers to inject q personal grievance
against the Traffic Bureau into the
business of the meeting and was
,overruled. Another contributing
cause for the action taken was the
fact that the press is too willing to
print such news. it was said. AT the
same time it was pointed out that
within a few hours after the publica-
tlon recently of stories of undeSir-
able conditions, the Police Depart
ment, through the observance of the
stories in the papers. had cleaned up
the section alluded to. \ motion was
adopted to require all members de-
string to make charges involving
moral turpitude, to do so in writing

KINNEY: In everlasting memory o.
my dear wife and devoted mother, Elma
T. KINNEY who departed this life, May
5th, 1928, aged twenty-nine years:
Some; Some may think you are forgotten.
1hough on EARTH you are no more;
But in memory you are with US,
AS you always were before.
Sleep on dear Mother, and take your rest
God took you home, He thought it best.
He saw your suffering here was great,
And opered wide the Golden Gate.
Though you've left us. dearest Mother,
Though we hear your voice no more
We are safe in our confding,
That Wen meet on yonder shore.
Watch and wait for us dear wife and
For we know we can't be long,
Till We are again united.
In land of sun and song
She slumbers so sweetly, o let her sleep
is ended, her pain is all gone.
Think how she suffered, but never a
moan
In the long night hours while we watch
ed.
Until, God in His mercy came down from
above,
And bore our sweet loved one away in
His arms
One year has passed; one sad, long year.
AS time rolls on, we miss her more.
Her loving smile and sweet sad face,
No one, can ever take her place.
Things have changed since you were
here,
But you are not forgotten, Mother dear.
Your memory is as dear today,
As in the hour you passed away.
)h, could we open wide your grave,
And see your face once more,
And hear your voice is all crave
rs in the days of yore.
Sadly missed by Husband and Chill
