Patter P Popular With the Police Of course, it is complimentary to eall the policeman a “copper” be- cause he shine a man of metal. The dictionary that this term is slang, but in the parlance of the great American public “‘cop" or “‘cop- per,” is a friendly everyday name for the policeman. We do not deny that some of the highbrows desig- nate him as “officer,” while some of the lawbreakers call him a “bull.” But, the big, robust healthy fellow who escorts the school kiddies across the thoroughfare and sends them on their way with a smile is “de cop.” Like all people who serve the public the policeman comes in for his share of “kidding” and jokes. Most of the humor con- cerning friend “copper” that is penned by the press humorists is as good-natured as the genial en- forcers of the law. On the screen in hunderds of theaters ‘Topics of the D: films often present “copper” comics with laughing suc- cess. You will find plenty of laughs if you walk along the “beat” of jokes rrested” below by The Tribune: THEY STICK TOGETHER Tomette. Are policeman frater- nal fellows? Tony. Positively!
