The department should have an automobile of sufficient power to be able to cope with the cars used by. thugs and .yeggs who may operate in the city or near it. If the police lack a high powered automobile, they are hopelessly handicapped at the very outset in the pursuit of criminals. The city also should , purchase firearms for the police. . The men are forced to buy their own weapons, the result being a collection of arms that is far from satisfactory. The city should equip the force with revolvers of standard make and provide the men with ammunition, to hold regular shooting practice.' . ' ' - A niggardly, attitude toward the police department is a foolish'one. Police are paid $115 monthly for 12 hours work, seven days a week. Out of this they are compelled to buy uniforms and weapons. In a few weeks they will be compelled to buy new uniforms, which will cost them $50. , The city provides its other departments with equipment. The raincoats of the fire department are furnished by the city. Tools and appliances for other departments are paid for by " the city. Why should the police be ignored in this particular? " ,.. An efficient police department is necessary

for every city. The local department should be as fully equipped as that of any city of our size. The few requests that have been made, including the purchase of an automobile for emergency cases, and the equipment of the members of the force, should be met at once by the city council. If the council believes in appropriating money to keep the fire department at a high state of effi

ciency, it should also see the necessity of playing fair with reasonable requests of the police department.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up"

The match that flickers for just a moment, the minute that is so soon ticked off, the candle that trembles in the waves of darkness for but a little while, the hour that hardly comes before it is gone , how brief each is! V - The morning breaking through sunbeams and shadows, promising, greeting, and giving every evidence of a long stay how quickly it rolls to its couch through soft lights, away from the closing eyes of a tiring earth. We awake only to sleep again. Days are but the breathings of Eternity. Today the tiny handful of baby in pink or - blue wrappings of exquisite softness tomorrow the man of affairs shouldering hi3 tasks among men. Brevity all 13 brevity! ' TIs the wink of an eye, the waft Of a breath," said William Knox. We journey only to return again. and to sit for but a few hours reveling in the joys and beauties of our pasts. Nothing stands still. Movement and change is everywhere pierced by brevity. Leslie Stephen, in an appreciation of the writings and character of Carlyle, gives us these interesting lines: "History is like the short space lighted up by a flickering taper in the midst of infinite glooms and mysteriesr and its greatest events brief scenes in a vast drama of conflicting forces, where the actors are passing in rapid succession rising from and vanishing into the all-embracing darkness." But there is nothing in brevity to depress one much less to slow , one's steps toward life's best achievements. There is wonderful inspiration in the very thought of brevity to do our best and most, while yet there is time!

Who's Who in the Day's News . MOHANDAS K. GANDHI Mohandas K. Gandhi, enemy of Britain and leader of the Indian non-co-operationist party, has been thrown into prison by British authorities in India. Cancellation of an order to arrest Gandhi after It had been issued was one of tho causes of the resignation at E. S. Montagu, secretary of state for India. Gandhi's arrest Friday folr lowed Montagu's resignation. Gandhi as head of the non-co-oper-ationists has been coveing India on m. k.cmnPmj f00t preaching his gospel of passive resistance to British rule. On these journeys usually he was accompanied by his wife, both wearing the simplest peasant costumes. Gandhi appears to have succeeded in doing what has never before been accomplished, uniting the Hindu and Mohammedan population of India in a movement against British rule. Though Gandhi, outwardly at least, has not advocated armed resistance to the empire, it is believed that his followers are secretly preparing to take up arms In revolt. Sailendra N.

12,2 No. 122 To Make a Coin Always "Heads" A penny Is shown lying heads up on the right hand. The cola is slapped down on the left hand, but instead of lying tails. It is still heads up. This is done by giving the right hand a very 6light jerk to the right, while slapping it down on to the left. The jerk takes the hand right out from under the colu, so that it falls beads, and the hand flapping the coin down on top traps the coin there. A little practice is necessary, but the knack is not difficult to acquire.

Some day I hope no man will dwell where warders' keys are clinked, some day I hope the prison cell will be a thing extinct. But since we have our costly jails, if they become a jest our system sags and fails and law gees galley west. Suspended sentences obtain, amusing sinful gents, paroles make punishment look vain, as vain as twenty cents. No sooner do we send a man to languish in the pen, than able lawyers work some plan, and get him out again.
