Order to Force.

Mai. Edwin B. Hesse, superintend-
ent of police. following the depart

as follows:
with the advent of the school

2. large use will he made of the streets
by the children for purposes of play.
which practice, if INDUCED in to any
great extent. will almost certainly
mean an increase in accidents to the
children with the probable loss of life
and limb.
This is a condition which must be
met and corrected as far as possible
by the Individual officers on the beat,
and YOU will. therefore, whenever
children are observed at play in the
streets on your beat, warn them
against such practice and of the
dangers attending the use of the pub
lie highways as Fairgrounds, and at
the same time direct them to the
nearest playground.
The individual officer on the beat
can accomplish great results for the
personal safety of the children in a
missionary way. He should make 1t
a point always to have the children
look upon him as their best friend;
he can. by his mere interest in them,
bring them to believe that he is their
protector rather than their enemy.
and he should strive at all times to
secure their confidence and assist
them whenever possible in their per-
sonal safety and associations"
Earlier in the week Maj. Hesse
issued an order directing the police
to warn children against the danger
of running, standing on the streets,

Farmers and stockmen are now
complaining that their long and
somewhat successful war against
the coyote has brought more harm
than good. for the gaunt desert
wolves killed or drove away the
swarming ranks of ground squirrels.
killing off the coyotes seems TO have
upset natures balance. bringing grief
TO the desert valley settlers.
When insects or rodents become so
numerous as to seriously endanger
crops, experts look around to see
what natural enemy they can import
to kill off the pest. The rapacious
coyote having been largely elimi
mated, farmers who lived formerly in
the Mississippi Valley are seriously
considering the Importation OF black
snakes TO war against the trouble
some ground squirrels. Former Mis-
souri, residents believe the black
snake would also exterminate the rat
tlesnake and largely rid this country
of gopherS.
