a more experienced man than Ward
might have loved his next door

Ward was of u religious tempcra-
lnent and got II notion that God Al.
mighty sanctioned his love for the
girl. The girl was religious too
and when Ward struck the chort

WANTS POLICE
TO LEARN Law
Aldermen Dislike Idea Of Sud-
den Enforcement of Long
Neglected Ordinances.

The habit OF Elizabeth City
police in suddenly enforcing
long neglected laws from time
TO time does not meet with the
approval of some OF the mem
bcrs of the Board OF Aldermen,
who said as much at Monday
nights meeting, and who think
that moderate enforcement OF
the city ordinances should be
observed all along.
In fact Alderman Foreman of the
First Ward criticised the habit inc
policr have of periodically haling
into court every person whose
chickens ARE found outside MS
urcmisrs. This custom Is usually
ohSrrycd when court business Is
dull generally. Of course the owner
of the chickens gets of with ilile
of 81 nnd costs. The costs are
about Si.i0. or such.
The Aldermen think the police
should try to acquaint folks win
= few of the laws at least. without
irving To catch them unaware, anu
forcing them 10 make business i"r
the court. so as to give the police
the appearance of earning their
salaries. ;,
