Although be has been eligible for retirement for seven years, the chief Justice, so far as his closest friends know, has, at no time since he reached the age of seventy, seriously considered taking advantage of the privilege.

THE WILY CHECK FORGER.

Notwithstanding the fact that warnings without number have been issued .through the columns of the press about the victimizing of business men by

check forgers, the game goes merrily on and there seems to be no stopping it.

In both the cities of Hammond and Gary, In the past week, the wily

'' forger has been at work and successfully, too. Only through the good work

'of a Hammond police officer was one of these criminals apprehended and

sent to the penitentiary for a term of years- It is pointed out by business men that they must take some chances with checks or their business will be minimized. The logic doesn't seem to hold good. The men who cashed this

forged paper - were utter strangers.: Their work was crude and palpably crooked; yet, they got the money. When a business man takes a check from

a person with whom he is acquainted, he passes upon it carefully for fraudu

lent signs. Yet a stranger can come in and get the money. The Lafayette

Journal, In "commenting on this topic, says: : Notwithstanding all the warning an occasional merchant con- : tinues to take a chance on a check presented by an unknown person. S -'Two nights ago the game was worked again oft one of the most conservativo merchants of the city. Naturally, he doesn't want the fact ' published, he acknowledges the loss with the explanation that his error was due to mistaken identity. The success of the forged check1 . ; presents material for psychological study.
