 Give us the red light if you've heard this" we continues, but did you hear the one about how every time the chief changes patrol mans beat a dozen complaints reach headquarters? ."
 'I know the answer to that one" he grins. from housemaids who have lost their boy friend"
 Wrong again. we chuckles from fruitstand owners who are tired of placing their best fruit on the top of the basket only to have it pinched."
 The cops have revolver practice and some of them are remarkab ble shots" we continues again, "only the other day one fired a shot at a burglar and autoists stopped their cars and got out 10 see if they had flat tires"
 Rattle along,' says the copper "before you tell me q cop gets a clothing allowance but must shine his badge at his own expense, and how the patrol wagon holds 13 pas sengers, but not comfortable, and the last time you rode in it you had to stand, until it ran out Of gas, and then you got out and pushed, or how a fatfoot pounds the hard pavement all day long and the only relief he gets IS when the commits sioners place him on the carpet. etc"
 As we rattle along in our usual daze and tags all the bases but one we hears the bluecoat murmuring more truth than poetry in, Just another nut behind the steering wheel"

 Society to Aid Work

Washington, May 6.-JP)-The American Peace society, oldest or ganizatlon of it's kind in the coun- tr%, announced the receipt today Of gift of s12.500 as part Of an offcl of s5Q,000 from Bernarr MacFadIen. New York publisher, for use ju plan 10 interest business men in d movement to prevent war.
 MacFa1den, in making the gift said that the fundamental force which would make the work Of peace organization effective is public opinion, and that public opinion in America is moulded largely by lead CTS of business.
 Ever since the great war ended our people have been struggling to find some adequate method for es- tablishing world peace" said the publisher. T have closely followed these efforts. Btu worthy as con- sclentious as some have been, I have observed that an impractical paci- fism and a purely emotional peace propaganda have only complicated and retarded the all-important task of safeguarding the worlds peace.
 Tt will be turning point in the worlds history when the business leaders Of America devote themselves to the strategy of peace with the same hard headed practicality they formerly used in the strategy of war"
