EADING about a police sergeant who retired after forty years’ service and never set foot off of his native Manhattan island made me think of a gentleman known a s “Smitty” who, in my reportorial days on Park Row, was general roustabout at Andy Horn’s saloon. Smitty was born in the shadow of Brooklyn bridge and grew up there. He had traveled the various boroughs, but no m atter where he went was always within the greater city. Finally he took a tour to for eign parts. He went to visit his sister, who’d married a truck gard ener back of Newark, and the broth er-in-law, who owned a car, toured Smitty about the landscape. I was one who greeted Smitty on his return. “ Fur me,” he said, “ never again! I don't like that Joisey.

It's just too bad if the notion has been allowed to languish. And if an amendment were tacked on requir ing that a certain type of legislator must wear garments with no pock ets in them and buttoning up the back, princesse style, so the wear er couldn't slip anything inside his bosom—well, there you’d have an idea that any state in the Union could profitably adopt, or, anyhow, almost any state. • • • Styles in Women's Hats. AVE you noticed those sub-divi sional hats women are wearing this season? If not, kindly do so. It’ll distract your attention from the part-time frocks some of them are wearing.

Its tiny, but well trained military force is put through periodic paces such us the above cavalry drill during maneuvers recently, near Geneva. t Ever since the year 1170 the par ishes surrounding Knightlow, Stret- ton - on - Dunsmore, Warwickshire, have paid Wroth Silver to the Lord of the Manor on St. Martin’s day. Shortly before sunrise the money is placed in a niche in the remains of an old stone cross, and then is collected by the Steward of the Manor, according to Tit-Bits Mag azine. The fees are purely nominal, ranging from one penny to two shill ings and threepence-halfpenny. De faulters, however, are dealt with severely, and have to pay a fine of twenty shillings for every penny, as well as a white bull with red ears and a red nose.
