Then April could be made fruitful to the company by a picture of people struggling in a freshet. Many could be drowned to fill the April bill, and others could be shown dying of pneumonia in May. In June the horse that ran away with the sleigh in February could be shown running away with a carriage, .and in July he could be depicted in the act of throwing a man over his head. He ccmld also be shown in October rolling on an anise seed fox hunter. The economy of this suggestion is that the same horse could be used for four months, if differently colored, without making tlje owner of the calendar suspicious. For August a mountain climber could be pic tured rolling down the drags and landing in a deep lake, where no assistance is obtainable. -In Sep tember the shotgun could remove the head from the hunter, and in November what would be more apposite than to have a football virtuoso removed from the field upon a litter, while chanting his ante-mortem statement? Decem ber would be just the time for.a lush, mellow, toboggan casualty to strike terror to the uninsured, or last but not least an automobile accident. If these subjects, which have the sporting spirit, were only tested as herein suggested, it is quite likely, that business would boom and the insurance man would be credited with having as great a head for business, as he has for long winded tabulated statements. tyarston Opens War On Crooks , (Continued from Page 1) will be so multiplied as to permit of a thorough and systematic patroling of the city at all times.

On Traffic Problem (.Continued from Page 1) Specifications for laying side walks and curbs as prepared by City Engineer Rightmire were adopted, and the City Clerk di rected to advertise for bids to be received on December 20. The city will proceed to install side walks and curbs in all parts of the city where owners have failed to comply with notice to do so. Claiming that the railroad sid ing at Cedar Grove Avenue had proven most convenient George C. Stoll, 303 Adams Avenue, well-known Gloucester lumber merchant, requested the commis sioners to give careful considera tion to the residents receiving freight at that point. The City Clerk was directed to notify Henry Mackler to recon struct curb and sidewalk laid at Jefferson and Winchester Av enues to conform to the established grade as fixed by the City En gineer.

It took a real actor to handle it and it was put over' magnificently by Henry Hull.
