 "I have here the records of the police department of 1872. At that time we had three patrolmen and chief of police making about 300 ar- rests year, costing the city for main- tenance s35oo. Now we make over 300 arrests monthly.
 Prohibition Increases Burden
 Prohibition has made our work much harder. Of course I believe in the 18th amendment and believe it is good law, but much more work has been added to our department mak- ing for more expense. Then again with the increasing popularity of the automobile. laws have to be enforced and again more work is added.
 50 you see boys we want your help and cooperation, to make our Work more pleasant and a bit easier. In conclusion I hope you boys will see that crime or any disobedience of the law does not pay. Obey your father and mother, your teachers in school and affiliate with organizations like the Y. NJ. c. A. and the Boys cluf and you will have all the reason ir the world to be happy and successful in whatever you attempt to do.'
 At the close of the talk Chief Har' gave a demonstration of the newly ac' quired riot gun.

 he was taking 1t. Neither did ile
 know the number of the house where ae was going. '
 Attorney Michael A. Sexton, former liquor prosecutor, represented the de tendant and Assistan nt Prosecuting At | torney William NJ. Greenstein rspre- sented the state. Mr. Sexton stated | that a man can carry liqror around the streets all day and under the state

 No doubt exists about the fact that coffee contains caffeine, drug which doctors prescribe as an emergency stimulant for the heart and nervous system; and many coffee drinkers know from experience that for them, coffee causes nervousness, headache or stomach trouble.
 Since so many people, including health au' thorities, have reason to question coffee drink ing, can you afford to risk your health with it. when you can have safe mealtime drink, such as Postum?
 You will like the delicious flavor of Postum. It fills every requirement of a hot drink; and many former coffee drinkers even prefer it to the best coffee.
 With Posuln as your mealtime beverage, your system free of caffeine, and your sleep sound and restful, you'll realize that Postum has established its genuine value in health and comfort

Two and one-half million club women, men,
5ers of the Federation of Women's Clubs, have
been asked by their president, Mrs T. G. Winter
to join in making Easter Sunday a special day of
demonstration in favor Of world peace. She calls
upon them not to make it simply demonstration
against war but one in favor of the concrete
things that bring peace, such as the world court
and international understanding and justice. The
club women want peace no more than several mil
lion other citizens. We all want peace. But the
problem has always beer for US to agree some
plan to make our ideal reality. The women are
to be congratulated on having agreed on plan.
At any rate they have made more progress than

their abstract form but cannot offer any prac-
ticai plan The federation members know whas
they want and they are going after it.-Cotton-

Commenting on the statement by Editor
Christianson Of Dawson that one adult out of IL
is on a public payroll, the Long Prairie Leader
says: els it any wonder that taxes are burden
some. America is a free country, but at the
same time it is the most governed country in the
world. It has more boards, commissions, agen-
cies. departments. officials. accountants, clerks.
advisors and directors than any two or three
countries in Europe combined. Still, there are
those who argue ceaselessly that we must turn
more and more business over to the government.
There are 80 many on the pay roll now that they
are in each others way. Instead Of urging more
government ownership, management, control
and regulation. why not trg the system for q

AS scurvy little trick played
on anyone was the absolutely untrue statement
that Ted Christensen of Dawson had been petit
toned by the members of the State Editorial AS
ISOLATION to run for United States Senator.
Everyone who knows the inside of the story
knows that it was clever little perpetration to
get Ted fixed in the public mind as senatorial
candidate that he would lose all possibility as a
gubernatorial candidate. Even among newspa-
permen we occasionally find political trickery and
by contrast, it shows up terribly black. In the
meantime Mr.. Christensen is not to be hurried
into announcing himself for either Office Blu.

the tactics tried against him.
