BW YORK'’S police horses, ac- knowledged by experts to be the finest troop of horseflesh in the world, many times daily call forth exclamations of admiration from those who see them work in conjunction with their riders, It may be that this admiration is caused by the facility with, which one of the magnificent bays helps his rider in stopping a runaway or in keeping back a howl- ing, nushing mob, or maybe it i Merely the all-knowing way he struts adout ‘helping to keep traffic from milling and jamming—but at all avents, back of his actions while “on duty!! be many strenuous days and weeks of training cn the part of the experts who mould a perfect police horse out of the pliant clay of the greenest, unbrmken candidates pur- ehaséd for police service The horses, purchased by a special committee, are green as the grass of old Ireland when they first ar the police t us, near Ocean A’ \ and stort a ten-daw period of proba- don and minute exaimination and dis- fease tests conducted by Dr. J.

Many of the horses, which must be between the ages or four and eight years and weich between 1,000 and 1,150" pounds, have ne an autdmobile, much less heard the roar of machine guns or the bowling of avmob or the blatant blasts of a band ‘on ‘parade. They known notting but the green of the pastures where they were raised and the first task ‘that’ confronts trainers John Brennan and James Byrnes, in com- pletg, Gharge of the education of the poliew: horse recruit, is to introduce the horse to all the noises known to nan.

The news has spread that Brénnan is training a likely eandidaje. A mouned man, whose mount has been condemned, sta spending his off hours hangin: around the stable. If he likes the new berse and the horse likes him, there ts-born a frieniship that will if everything works out right, be a lasting ase. ‘The mounted man, with his cye on the Yew horse, generally asks Lieut John ‘X)'Park, in charge of all pol horses, if he may have the young borse’as a mount. In nine cases out ef ten Lieut. Park takes a trip to the stablep watches the man and the new liorse, and if they stow they have given to the rider. Although under no obli so, the man spends ail hi with the pupil horse, and between Eimself and the trainers soon has th animal well along toward his col lege course. The pupil is now taught how ‘vo push back a friendly crowd that sists of breaking through to see parade. ‘This stunt must be don gently. When the animal masters the art of shunting back crow.s without damage to the crowd, he is whagicd in the art of boxing iack a threatening mob by standing on his hind féet and emulating Jack Dem; sey With his forciegs.

Couldn't you have started down the rainbow path of batiking in a conservative manner with a thim- ble full of one color and experimented first on a gnat's wing? You might have tried it on the dog, eo to speak!" “That gives me an idea!” remarked Mrs. Jurr, “Not your suggestion about a gnat's wing, for where could get a guat? But about trying it on dog.

She has done a noble piece of work that is worth while recording. About twelve years ago her broth- ers wife died at childbirth and left seven children. In those days the father of these children was earning about $16 a week, a8 was this woman's own hus- band. She just took the whole family in and mothered them, as well as the grandmother, and until three years ago the family were practically in- tact. The boy of fifteen enlisted in the army and died as the result. The father remarried and took one of the children with bim. For twelve years this woman was everything that a mother could be she made that little income reach to the limit, until now the children are all nearly seif-supporting, There is still one girl of fifteen and a boy of twelve whom this little mother is sending to school, and hop- ing that they too will be able to look out for themselves. The {amily are living in their own little home and have been very happy indeed. Of course, the salary has been in- creased, and as this couple look back at what they have done, they have not a single regret. As the little woma. stated to a vis- itor whom I sent to her, “The work I have done has its own reward. treated the children just as any mother would act toward them, and altogether [ am glad they are going to be good little Americans, If I had any part in making them so, I have been amply repaid.” Such was the spirit with which this woman spoke of the fine work she thas done in all these years. Boreft of a little one, the only child abe had, she took unto herself the seven, all of whom she taught the way they should go. Somehow this ought to be a great example for the many peaple who have nothing to do: As the husband of this lady said: . hope that our story, if you are going “o print it, may inspire others to adopt some child, "My advice to those who can afford it ig to adopt some little youngster and they will never regret it. “I cannot begin ‘o tell of the many sant hours that wore apent with the children, There is no pleasure in life that ean curmpare with the com- pany of little ones, and we have been rewarded wooordingly If I were moh [ would seek such ones and give them some other re ward besides the satisfaction of hav ing done a fine piece of work like this. 1 would like do «ay to them “Make a wish and it shall be granted.” ‘This is the kind of people to whom I would 1 to be a fairy godmother.
