sume their unrelenting watch over' the community in which they oper- ate. In the still hours of the night, when the families in these outlying precincts are deep in slumber, these police cars are cruising about with | eyes peering from them for any sign| of trouble. o Appear as Private Cars. While the officers are in unttorm, the cars In which they ride are to| all outward appearances private ve- hicles, except for gold lettering on the doors, giving the number of the ! police precinct. Police officlals be- | lieve this plan will make it harder for prowling thieves to operate, be- ! cause they can never tell when a po- | lice motor car will roll around the | next corner. And after nightfall, these cars are not nearly as easy to “spot” as a motor cycle policeman. As each squad goes off duty the men are required to fill out a report, show- | ing every act of police service they ' performed. These cards are all being filed at headquarters and Maj. Hesse plans to study them in the near future | to ascertain exactly how beneficial the {nnovation hos been At regular and frequent Intervals i during each eight-hour trick of duty, the men in these motor cars call the ! station clerk from the patrol boxes, | 50 that if an emergency call is re- ! ceived at the station, a policeman can | be dispatched to the scene much more rapidly than could be done before the introduction of the automobile patrol stem.

Hesse does mnot believe the use of automobiles in patroling pre- cinets will displace the footman, but he sees in the Introduction of the automobile a new factor in police service—a factor which will give the o greater degree of security. The horse-mounted policeman, for ears a picturesque and familiar ht on the outlying roads of the city, probably will remain in the | e 1n 'mrlnwul of the future, Maj. because there are s parade days, when he is especially useful. But the superin- tendent also is of the opinion that | the nobile will prove a more ef- fective agency in affording protec- tion to the suburbs, especially as those areas become built up. At present the local department has only eight automobiles available for | this precinct patrol system, but Mal.

For every O’Sullivan heel is put through a remarkable test for springiness. A metal hammer isswungagainst several types of rubber heels. The force of the impact equals that of the average man’s heel striking the pavement. The distance of the re- bound is mea; sured automatically. And the rebound from O’Sullivan’s must be at least twice that of the ordinary heel. In this way O’Sullivan’s heels are kept uniform—and are made so springy that they give you extra comfort, yet so tough they will give you months of long, hard service. You can’t see O’Sullivan quality any more than you can see quality in finely tempered steel, but it's there — guarani teed by the name and backed by 25 years of rubber heel manufacturing experience—and it costs no more than unsatisfactory substitutes. ‘That’s why it pays to insist on O’Sullivan’s —to ask for O’Sullivan’s by name, $1.25 Aluminum Double Boiler Heavy qualm 2- quart Special $L2S Aluminum Saucepan Set 1, 1%, 2 and 3 quart sizes.
