r. A. Campbell of theIra Wilson

Hoffa. however, declared that

asserted also that the manpower

He sal dthe union intends TO re.

The average mortal after he has
reached any considerable age, may not
be able to recall with clearness the more
important scenes of his childhood. But
though many events may be blotted out
from his memory, yet it Is safe to say
that, aside from his home, three things
will remain with him until the end, and
these are his Sunday school, his day
school and the policemen of his neigh
borhood-the guardians of the peace,
the men who disturbed the boys when
too many congregated on the corner,
Who stopped them from playing ball in
the street and from whom they had to
hide their beenshooter and run like
rapscallions when they were caught
SWIMMING in their birthday clothes too
close to the highway, But. after all, as
we oldsters look backward, these men
were not SO bad after all, for many a
time they overlooked many an infrac-
tion that today might be looked upon
as serious. And so, as we grow older,
and In fancy dream Of the past, we
really even look upon these "arch en-
ernies" of our youth as some of the best
men in the world.
In his early days the writer lived only
q few blocks from the old second police
precinct, at first on the southeast corner
of Seventh street and Florida avenue
and later at 2042 Georgia avenue, in a
frame house said to have been erected
by the notorious Mary Hall before she
moved to Southwest Washington.
In Lieut.. Johnson's Day
1t. James johnson, who was ap-
pointed on the police force late in 1861,
shortly after the first men were ap-
pointed, was in charge of this station
as early as 1862, according to the city
directory of that date. From here the
station was removed to the adjoining
brick house to the south, about 1875.
This latter house, 2040 Georgia avenue,
