DOWNTOWN HOME
FOR POLICE URGED
Commissioner Bell Would
House Court and Other
Agencies in One Building.

An estimate for the erection OF a
building in the downtown section to
house Police Court, police headquar-
ters, the detective bureau and all
agencies dealing with traffic matters
should be considered when the next
budget Is being drafted this Summer
Engineer Commissioner Bell declared
today.
The idea of having a centrally To-
Gated police building has been in the
minds OF city officials for a number
of years. but IL has been revived and
strengthened by the fact that the
personnel of the Police Court Is about
TO be increased to handle traffic cases

pointment of two more Police Court
judges, one additional assistant cor
poration counsel, two clerks and two
bailiffs.
Col. Bell has instructed Maj. W. H
Holcombe. assistant Engineer Com
missioner. to cooperate with court
officials in providing room for the
new judges in the existing cour1
building at Sixth and D streets.
At the same time, be believes th'
city authorities should turn their at.
tention again to the need for a build
ing in which the various bureau:
dealing with traffic and police
administration could be centralized
The Engineer Commissioner point
ed out that such a structure not only
would simplify administration o.
police and traffic matters, but woule
at the same time relieve congo stior
of office space in the Distric
Building.
Present Disadvantage Uted.
At the present time automobil,
ope rating permits are issued in tn,
Federal Government building a
Fourteen and E streets, while auto
mobile tags are sold In the Distric
building. In central structur.
these two related agencies could bt

Col Bell said he believed it woult
be wen for Municipal Architec
Harris to prepare an estimate of the
cost Of central police ana traffic
building for consideration by thu
Commissioners in the next budget.

Bee, my mother Is a wonderful woman. Almost everything she has learned she has acquired in the great school of experience. She did not find her place in life, she made place for herself. She has always marched with her regiment and now, being a veteran, she Is wear ing many medals for bravery in life's battles.
 She has been wonderful since dad died. One almost seems to feel that she is nearer to him than she was when he was aliveA
 After I read your letter to her we began talking about some of the stories of the moving picture actresses and this new freedom which so many young women are embracing today.
 Tt is only because they don't know what to do with their knowl- edge" mother said. "All of them kno wso much more today than their mothers did before them. Keeping girls innocent - which in the last analysis only means keep ing them ignorant, Leslie - has gone out of fashion.
 "The moving picture tells more secrets of life to the child of today than her grandmother ever knew" "
 Do you think, mother, it will make for greater understanding and consideration between the sexes?" | asked.
 Mother looked at me somewhat oueerly and l knew she was think ! ing that even I had fallen into the new way of bringing sex into every i discussion.

Letter from Leslie Prescott to Bee
 Summers


 Summers
 Dear Bee: I was tremendously interested in your letter. l wonder if that husband of yours appreci- ates you as you deserve.
 I had many letters of coincidence, but they were of the stereotyped Kind. No one except you told me that in 8 short while time would blunt my grief over my little sister Alice.
 Already I am beginning to forget these last few months of unhappi- ness with Alice and remember her only as bright, loving girl. So you see know what you told me is true. All those other people knew it, too, but they did not take the trouble to tell it to me, or else they had an idea that I could not stand the truth.
 I read your letter to mother and she smiled that dear comprehend ing smile of hers as she said: Bee is right, Leslie, but l am afraid that sometimes she will come to the con- slJeion that all her knowledge is not happiness. Those who know as much about life as she does must understand this.
 "Those who always know why a khing is, realize how unnecessary 1t is to make others unhappy if they will only give to their impulsive acts g little thought. The things that hurt US most are not those which are intended to hurt us but those which we know are done without thought because the one who does them does not care enough to refrain from doing the lining that hurts us"

FaEgedy Ann and Raggedy Andy carried the wooden hobby horse down the path through the deep, deep woods,
 Usually the nice magical hobby horse carried the Raggedys, but this time, when the Raggedys were riding upon the hobby horse and they were trying to escape from Heezy the Witch and another old woman, both of whom wished to get Raggedy Ann's candy heart, the hobby horse had broken his two front wooden legs.
 Then, of course, the Raggedys would not leave the hobby horse so they picked him up and carried 1 him.
 As they walked along after the hobby horse had given both old Witches a thump with his hind legs. the Raggedys saw d sign upon a tree which read, Everything mend ed while you wait" Presently the Raggedys came to a little shoS standing beside the road and at the door stood a funny little fat man with cheery smile.
 Hello everybody" he cried. Have you something you wished mended while you wait"
 "Oh yes" Raggedy Ann said, our magical hobby horse in jump ing over a log broke off both of his front legs"
 "Ha.' the little man said, That is mighty soon fixed, I can tell you! Just step inside and l will put my pot of glue on the fire and we will fix that nice hobby horse"
 And the little fat man put the pot of glue upon the fire and then said, "I thought I heard A lot Of bowling back in the woods"
 Indeed! You did!" Raggedy Andy replied, old Heezy the Witch and old Hazel Hagg were after us to catch Raggedy Ann and take her candy heart away from her and the hobby horse gave both old Witches a hard thump with his hind feet"
 And it served them both right" the little man said, The idea oi anyone wishing to take a candy heart away from anyone! The old Witches must be very mean and selfishn'

1 "Of all things," Her Flufiiness ex- claimed when we opened the door, What on earth possessed you two to get up at this hour? Katie and thought we'd have good two hours to get start with tho work before anybody wakened."
 There was a hint of acerbity in her voice which l quickly inter- preted from my long knowledge of her. Little Mrs. Durkee's house. keeping Is her hobby and she brides herself upon the immaculate condi- ton of her home and the smooth ness with which her domestic ma chinery runs, She had risen thus early in order 10 perfect every de- tail of the housekeeping interrupted by the unexpected happenings of tho past two days, and she was an- noyed to have any of her guests appear on the scene before she had accomplished the things she had planned to do.
 Our long and intimate friend ship. however, has taught me how best to deal with her, so marched over to her, and taking her by the shoulders shook her payfully be- fore stooping to kiss her.
 Don't you dare try any of these company airs on me" I said sport s,.al,, hat ar,,,1,, sfTl,ora ora Ave nf us, counting Katie. dumped on you as extras at this most inopportune time. If you treat us as anything but members of the family. bound to help you, I" - I'll put Mother Graham in an ambulance and move her to the nearest hospital"
 "Go Ahead -and Work
 Her Fluffiness always capitulates most gracefully when she sees the inevitable in front of her, so l was not surprised to hear her give silvery little laugh at my threat.
 "All right" she said. Go ahead and work, If you want to. Suppose you and Marion put the living-roon and library in order while Katie and l get breakfast. You can use the vacuum cleaner If you shut the doors. No one can hear it through ] those heavy doors
 I did not wait for second per, mission, but whisked Marion away to the closet where Mrs. Durkee keeps all her cleaning utensils. Fol the next two hours, interrupted only by breakfast and the dressing of Junior, Marion and l ran the cleaner, dusted and rubbed furni' ture until I was sure that the re- suit satisfied even the critical eyet of our little hostess.
 Then I dressed and started fol i the bank. As came out of the door I heard quick, furtive rust ling of the thick hedge screening the kitchen entrance, and with sudden, intuitive impulse darted to- ward the noise.

 l rose early on Monday morning, for knew that Mother Graham's 5 impatience would insist upon my getting to the bank as soon as that Institution opened it's doors and ob- taining the one hundred dollars in currency which she had asked of me. was anxious, moreover, to lend a hand in the many domestic de- tails of the Durkee menage under the combined stress of the new baby and the incursion of our fam Ny into the house because of my mother-in-law's accident,
 I tried to move noiselessly about the room. which l shared with Marion and Junior. but either l failed or Marion also had been rest less, for as l closed the window l heard voice saying softly:
 "May I get up, also, Aunto Madge? I think there ought to be things could do for Mrs. Durkee this morning. She must be terribly busy with so many of us here.'
 Nobody could ever mistake you for anybody else than your moth CTS own daughter, Marion" said warmly. You surely have inherited her thoughtfulness.
 II Haven't Answered'
 "Thank you." she said shyly, her hheeks flaming. But" she ktopped abruptly.
 T haven't answered your ques- ton, have T." I returned smiling. s'Yes, indeed, you may get up right Away, and I am sure there will be many things you can do. That's why am getting up, too, you know, hpd as soon es we get dressed we'll 10 downstairs and find out what Is needed first"
 She was out of bed before had Finished speaking, carefully drawing khs covers over Junior before leav- ing the bedside.
 "He won't wake up for two hours ket." she said with as decided an kir as any mother of six could have worn, but I was careful to let no hint of the tender amusement I felt appear on my lips, for there is one trait of Lillian's which her daugh- ter does not inherit. and that is the older woman's imporyiousness to sidicule.
 The child is like the sensitive plant in her reaction to praise, cen- sure or raillery, and we who love her have learned 10 handle her carefully, although her mother is devoting much time and thought to the problem of training the child to meet the bufets of life with the triple-plate armor which covers her own soul. We dressed rapidly, Mar lon beating me easily, however, and made our way to the kitchen where' early as we were, we found Mrs Durkee and Katie ahead of us.
