Joe sighed. She's probably a
neighbor he just met accidentally
at the station. When will you learn
that you can't jump to conclusions
about people?"
Two weeks later, they went to a
dance at the club. They were chat
ting with Mark Afnes and his wife
when Joe saw the man from the
train entering the room. He heard
Amy's intake of breath and then
her eager voice: MARK! Who is
that MANI"
Mark looked. II don't know him
too well," he said. His name is
Collyer. He's pretty big corpora
ton lawyer; lives in a show place
further north"
A fiat look came into Joe's face.
"Is that so?" he said.
They have two boys" Mark
said, "who are away at college. F"
He sighed. Rather sad domestic
tale there. It seems that he and
his wife are breaking up. Another
woman entered the picture not too
long ago."
Joe swallowed. Then he looked
at Amy. She was grinning up at
him. There would be no holding
her now, he thought bleakly. And
he had wanted so much to teach
her a lesson.

Joe felt dazed. Belding? 1t was
impossible. Why, he had viewed
the man from every angle, and
over long period of time. He
couldn't have misjudged him. Or
- could he?
Home again at the end of the
evening, he was very quiet as they
got ready for bed. Darling" Amy
said, bemused, wasn't it queer
how everything l said about the
Collyer man turned out to be
true?"
JOE looked at her. Her face was
flushed and artless and very sweet.
He opened his mouth and closed it
again. Very queer" he said.
Later, with the room dark and
both of them in bed. Amy said
sleepily, Jill introduced me to
that Mrs. Travers. l was crazy
about her. Such a nice, honest face,
Joe. You'd know just by looking
at her that she'd never talk about

Joe stared up at the ceiling. And
suddenly it all seemed very, very

And a southern city also reports
a single accident. A car struck the
guard herself!
New York, last of the cities with
a population of over 100000 to
take up the idea. has fallen in line
with project to start now in the
Bronx.
A total of 1912 persons took
tests last month for the lit jobs as
civilian guards at school crossings
- and 80 per cent of them were
women. But that's only a begin
ming. No doubt New York will
wind up with the biggest guard in
the country.
How are the members of a School
Guard chosen? One police chief
writes: The women must be in
good health, with unimpaired eye
sight and keen hearing. And they
must be mothers. To have the
corps appear uniform, we choose
women about five-feet-four in
height, sizes IL and IA. ages Is to
40. They serve every school day in
every kind of weather. If. because
of illness, they cannot report, they
notify headquarters, and replace
ments are sent. No school corner is
ever left uncovered.
'sYOn seldom see q driver
argue with one of these women.
They don't have police power to
make arrests, but if they take your
number and make complaint,
you might just as well not try to
fight the case"
These women are deadly serious
about their jobs. In one city last
year, a woman had stopped traffic
and was signaling children to cross

the street. She heard a screech of
brakes. Turning, she saw a car
that was out Of control. 1t was
coming fast, and its driver was
fighting brakes that wouldn't hold.
The woman dashed across the
street with outspread arms. She
swept half a dozen children out of
the cars path. As the auto passed,
it actually brushed against her
skirt.
please don't use my name"
she said. ANY member of the
School Guard would have done
what / did. It was the normal
thing for any mother to do"
Ngeney-SaveEs
WHEN / asked the police chief of
a Midwestern city if he thought all
communities could afford a paid
School Guard, he pointed out that
rates of pay vary, in different
cities, from IS cents to $2.45 an
hour. The national average is $l.2l
per hour or about $l8 a week =
with 81 cities falling into this
category.
Remember. the women work
only two or three hours a day." he
said. They are paid far less, as a
rule, than the policemen they re
place. So they actually save their
towns money.
And when you consider how
many children's lives have been
spared because of their vigilance,
the question ought not to be if a
community can afford a School
Guard. The question is = where
is the community that can afford
to be without one?" The End

A little later, the two wives ex-
cused themselves. Joe and Mark
continued to talk, then Mark said,
frowning, 'You know - that busi-
ness about Collyer. No one can
figure it out"
Figure what out?"
'Why, what he can see in this
other dame. His own wife is quite
a dish "a tall blonde. And this
new love of his is about as alluring
as an old pair of rubbers."
Joe stared. Something flashed in
his brain, and he blurted out, ''On
the plain-but-sweet side?"
That's right. She's. a widow;
lives up north station or two
beyond here"
A beatifc grin spread slowly
over Joe's face. He didn't know
when he had been so tickled over
anything. 1--WE got to find Amy"
he said.
''WELL, wait a minute" Mark
said. Il wanted to talk to you
about the Belding case. That's a

Joe looked blank. "A shocker?

l communicated with scores of
police chiefs who now rely on
Women's School Guards. They
were unanimous in their commen-
dation of the idea.
Its record is amazing. After in
augurating their School Guards,
8S cities haze had no fatalities and
no injuries whateser at any of their
school crossings!
As the Institute of Public Ad-
ministration points out: These
results are all the more remarkable
when it is realized that several of
these 88 cities have had their
crossing-guards programs in oper-
alton since the early 1905" In
other words. no traffic accidents in
over 20 years where the guards
were on duty!
The Record
/ RUE, other cities have had acci-
dents - but in every case where
figures are available the number
has been reduced by the School
Guard program. Moreover, indica-
tons are good in cases such as
Pittsburgh, one of the pioneers in
the movement: that city has no
record of chool-crossing accidents
before the Guard program = but
in 1854 there have been no deaths
and only four injuries.
Similar stories come from many
places. The police chief of Indian
apolis, John E. Ambuhl, writes,
I'VE have had but one fatality at
such a guarded intersection, and
that through no fault of the guard."
