It was Saturday night and Hill was giving THE POLICEMAN A FEW
among the elect. He didn't belong
there. He was u guest, a guest who
felt a little out of place and awkward
and diffident. He had for years
yearned to lie in company of this kind
and now that he Imd arrived on suf-
ferance he was awed. He listened.
The gentlemen who sat about the
room were men of the world. Much e\
peril nee hud jaded their appetites.
They were completely sophisticated
And all of them scored platitudes an I
sentimentality and the uplift; hut the
greater part of their scorn wan re
served for censors.
Hill had three drinks and no longer
was content to listen. He felt that at
last he was among his own kind, and
he wished to declare himself and es-
tablish his right to lie accepted its
one of them.
“The censorship," he said. “Is the
flower of a yokel complex." Not so
good, and yet rather good for Bill.
He was doing his darnedest. “I loo!>
at it this way." he continued, "if the
KINDLY WORDS—
(James J Davis. Secretary of Labor,
in Tlie American City)
I have never passed a lonely police-
man. on a winter s night, who hadn't
a cheery "good evening" in answer to
a greeting from me. That has told
tne something of a policeman's life
He is a lonely worker, and eager for
any friendly token from another hit
man being.
He isn't the man to brats about his
exploits, nor complain of his trial:-.
Yet trials he has, in plenty. To me,
I the policeman is a living statue of
duty. And most of duties are distaste-
ful to him It is easy enough to per-
form a pleasant duty.
It takes grit, and manhood, and
character to perform, year in and
year out, the most unpleasant duty
of all the duty of everlasting watch-
fulness against tin* worst there is in
human nature
That is why I mean it when I say
nianity to the rules laid down for good
citizenship.
He walks the had pavenieuts for
miles. He stands for hours In tire-
less watch. He helps the weak and
aged and children.
Hut there is yet one thing that
marks the policeman off as more than
a worker. \Yc send that mail into
constant bodily risk. His life is nl
ways In danger. The policeman is
more than a man who toils und bears
responsibility. He is a soldier.

We have a degree of sympathy with
that seasick woman passeuger on the
Olympic who offered the captain
$100,000 to turn back on the second
day out. We know her misery.
It is a misery beyond the under
standing of those who have not ex-
perienced it. A misery that pene-
trates and sinks into the very marrow
of the hones. Through the porthole Is
disclosed such an empty vaxtncss as is
seen elsewhere only on the plains of
western Kansas. In the cabin itself
is only dizziness, npsidedownuess ami
the bewilderment of soul felt by tin-
earnest advocate of the league of the
brotherhood of man in the presence
of the devious activities of the coun-
tries of Europe.
The only trouble with the lady on
the Olympic was that she lacked the
grand imagination. She did not offer
enough. A hundred thousand dollars?
To get rid of the agony she was suf-
fering would have been worth at least
n million!

HUMANS LACJ< INSTINCT—
(San Francisco Chronicle)
Did you ever watch a flock of black-
birds In the fall?
See the flock rise from a grain filed
with instant and graceful uniformity
of motion, like a well-trained band of
musicians responding to a baton—per-
forming evolution after evolution its
one bird. In massed formation it
wheels to right or left or bends be-
neath the buffets of the wind without
ever losing ils compact unity, without-
confusion in the ranks, without so
much as the brush of a feather. Brakes
soft as the touch of velvet ease the
wildness of the flight and as gently
as a blown petal to the gras’s the
flock conics to the ground, very bird
at the same instant.
What unerring instinct preserves
this mighty harmony of movement,
what unheard command rules this
winging band, we know not.
if human beings possessed the in-
stinct or sense of blackbirds we would
have no traffic problems.

OH. FOR A JEFFERSON—
tj». Jill. W««i#ra .Xtauiir- im,n

Oh, that we could have a Thomas
Jefferson to lead ns back into the sim-
plicities of government. He held to
the idea that the best governed peo-
ple were the least governed. A fellow-
lias to be careful these days where
lie spits, even, for fear of hitting some
federal agent or some stnte or city
or township or town officer, employed
to enforce some fool law. Laws sur-
round tts on every side, telling us
what vvt* can and can't do. or eat. or
drink, or think, or look, or ride, or
walk, or everything. And wonder we
have a lot of contempt for them?
Let's ask our law makers to do a lot
of repealing.

THE AMERICAN
PUBLIC
has come to recognize the growing and extending use-
fulness of the services of utilities. New uses for each
of the leading forms of public service are being daily
developed in domestic, commercial, social and indus-
trial life. With the development of each new use the
dependence of the public upon the utilities become
more definite. To this independence the utilities them-
selves have responded by increased efficiency in man-
agement, increased insurance against failure to func-
tion and a better sense of relationship to the public.
There is brain power behind public utility service.
The public utilities are the result of the visions of
genius, of heartbreaking research, of the accidental and
deliberate conclusions of science, of the wonders of in-
vention, of the faith which consumer and provider, cap-
italist and worker have in the American people.
