y Entered as second--class matter October 13, 1916, at the "~ _ Libertyville, lilinois, under Act of March 3, 1879. Issued This is unfair to the police reporter. The law breaker, the inneficient police officials and the crafty judge are afraid of the police reporter as they are of no other person. It is he whose trained senses ferret out in many instances the crimes and crim-- imals that the police fail on. It is he whose keén observation keeps the police on the job and court officials wary of neglecting their duty. In this he serves the public well and does more to deter crime tkan could "the careful investigator" referred to. As to the careful investigation, study of the records of police reporters would prove them, by and large, a body of "careful in-- vestigators" that would be hard to equal. T suchn a Torest retreat. c The world with its conflict and fierceness of competition seems remote there, and one wonders whether the so--called trinmphs of civilization are so wonderfu! after all. The,sweet-- ness of nature seems more 'satisfying there, ard tired people begin to see--their work in a clarified light, and obtain a new power with which to meet their diffics ies ' IN THE FOREST ° Many of the folks who are forced to spend the summer i crowded cities, will admire the choice which President Coolidge has made of a summer resort, in a woodland camp in the Adirondacks. There is something wonderfully refreshing about such a forest retreat. "The remedy lies more in administration than in statutes. Pubilicity of facts is one of the surest guarantees of efficiency. Every step, from detection to ultimate release after fulfillment of sentence, should be open and the public should be kept ad-- vised. The facts should be arrayed, not by the sensational methods of the police reporter, but by those of the careful in-- vestigator." Above all things the good police reporter must be a caréful and accurate investigator. Often the official sources of news are closed to 'hir; and he must find a way to get his story and he must have facts to back up that story with. Every police story is dangerous to a newspaper in its potential libel suits and no paper wortky of the name would knowingly rely on a man who was careless or inaccurate in police work for he would em-- broil the paper in more libel suits than half a dozen lawyers €ould get it out of. +« o LABOR'S FIVE DAY WEEK The five day week movement is gaining favor and is already in operation with a number of trades in various cities. Glaziers in Newark; electricians in Seattle; lathers in Boston, Buffalo and Seattle; painters in Boston, Bridgeport.. Newark, New York, Portland, Ore., Scranton and Seattle; plasterers in Boston, Buffalo, Philadelphia, Providence and Seattle, plumbers, steamfitters and bricklayers' tenders in Seattle--all eonform to the five day week. The idea hnas gained greatest favor in Seattle where seven major trades are' working on a five day schedule. ® " The working week of labor has undergone drastic changes within a comparatively short period of time. From twelve hours the day has been reduced by half hour afid hour stages to eight hours. And the week, already reduced from six to five and a half days, now gives promise of being generally reduced to five days. The wisdom of the previous changes, while at first doubted in some quarters, has been proven by the more than satis-- factory results. The five day week has much to recommend it and it is quite probable that ultimately labor, at least erganized labor, will insist upon its adoption. < POLICE REPOR . Zi&s % Oscar Hallem, of St. Paul, chair=sn of the American Bar Association, in his address before that body at Denver, on means to suppress crime, said : § Don't blamé the police reporter. Rather blame the lax offi-- cial who dreads to see the searching ray of publicity thrown upon his work in any but the most favorable light. --_-- But it seems impossible for the editor to become angry with the dilettante or confirmed writer of the anonymous letter. Usually he smiles and sometimes he shakes his head sadly at the perverted mental processions of the writer. He realizes it is folly to cogitate upon those mental processes but sometimes wishes for an opportunity to enlighten the anonymous author, to tell him that he is denying himself the right to express his thoughts and feelings, and that if they are worth putting in writing they are worth putting over the author's signature. name and position he is completely unaware. However tender ene's hide, one can't conceivably be bothered very much by the nose--fingerings of an indiscernible ghost. THE ANONYMOUS LETTER . We often wonder what satisfaction is derived by the writers of anonymous, insulting lettérs. However thin--skinned a man may be, he can't very well be insulted by a person whom he does not know and has never heard of, and of whose existence, '_Every once in a while when the editor in the rush of the day's work rufi's across an anonymous epistle "to the editor," he wonders what satisfaction it has given the writer. The anony-- mous letter is as inevitable as it is destined for the waste basket. © Anonymous leters are always much the same. Usually they sputter. It overflows with indignation, denunciation and dam-- nation. It is pervaded by an atmosphere of stealth and surrep-- tition. One gets a vision of the writer seeking the shadows of the narrow street, of pausing finally at an unfrequented corner and after furtively looking in all directions quickly dropping a bit of white in the mail box, making the mail man the unknown accomplice in his designs. SWIPING SOUVENIRS Hotel and restaurant proprietors complain of the folks who earry off small articles of silverware as souvenirs of their pleasures and travels. This loose idea adds to the cost of running such enterprises, and the conscientious people who would not care for property obtained in that way have to pay for the stuff thus carried off. -- It may be considered a very trifling fault to commit these acts of petty stealing. But young people whose elders mmu&:hmtpttozettheideathattheyun take possession of more valuable property if they think they can get away with it.
