SCHOOL POLICE,
1900 STRONG,
AT CROSSINGS
Organization Is Formed,
Directed by WorIey
and Owen.

An organization of 1900 Indian
apolis school police has been formed
by the Accident Prevention bureau
of the Police department under the
direction of Chief Claude Worley
and Lieutenant Frank Owen. The
groups now are perfected in seventy
five grade schools.
Last year the police numbered
1000 in 104 schools, but the in
creased enrolment forced the added
personnel, Worley says.
The first night meeting with the
parents will be held Sept. 20 at
School No. 80. A series of these
meetings was held last year, and an
even more elaborate schedule is
planned for 1928-29.
Police officers will outline
methods of accident prevention and
will seek cooperation of parents in
lowering the number of automo-
bile accidents.
Chief Worley will give his first
party for the school police Sept. %,
when the 1900 will be entertained
free at Washington ball park at
a game between Indianapolis and
Toledo. The right field bleachers
will be reserved for the youngsters.
Following a survey of the city, po-
lice have been stationed at
dangerous corners during the time

at all of his friends who were left were
frightfully shocked. They said: "You
talk as if we and God did not know
what was best for you. 1t is blasphe-
nous. Shame on you'll" But Job said:
BEAT it! Leave me alone to scratch
my own boils. And that amt all. AS
sure as my name is Job, God will yet
repent of his ways toward me and.
then, you'll see where you get off"
And so it was. One day God came
down, told Satan to light out, repri-
manded Jobs smart friends, and gave
Job more wives, sons, daughters,
sheep, goats, cattle and chattels than
he ever had before, saying: II like to
see a man think for himself and act
accordingly" And thereafter the man
called Job lived happily and highly
respected until he died. Which reminds
blamed few of them are thinking for
us that the world is full of Jobs but
themselves, or there wouldn't be a

THE MAN CALLED JOB

Once upon a time there was a man
called JOB" He was called that be-
cause he was given the first job of
scratching for himself. The Bible tells
all about him. AS his name indicates,
he had the toughest time in the whole
book. Everybody gave him a lot of
free good advice. All his friends were
sure he was in bad because he had
done something God just didn't ma
turally like. They said: eff you hadn't
wasted your money giving your
friends, family and everybody fine
time you would not now be out here
in the ashes scratching boils all by
yourself. Instead, you would be in a
fine hospital surrounded by bevy of
beauts and under the care of scien-
tific body experts. You deserve what
you've got. In fact, bad case of boils
all over is mild punishment for a man
who refused to put his money in bank
and let it grow up for his old age or
other accidents" And they said lot
besides to him. But Job said: Go to,
now, you cheap skates. Whoever took
you for Union men, anyhow? You
know it wasn't my fault that the flood,
famine and soldiers came upon me and
destroyed my flocks, family and fu-
ture. Also you know that God had
no more to do with the governments
declaring war than | did, and all
had to do with it was to go home, keep
my mouth shut, lose my boys, pay my

years have the regular graft and

in 1926 when a "little trouble" in
Brooklyn made the ring cautious.
A sort of tentative list of the main
grafters was drawn up by Lougheed,
as follows:
Oswald, $4,000 in three years: Nc
Gee, $4,000 in three years; Minchin,
$1,000 a year; Benjamin P. Stoeber,
