W .Chicago Inter, Qcauu: What it-- tragedy was that! A strong man swoon ing when he is informed that he has fail ed to pass an examination,-thereby ION- ing bis/position upon which depended the bread of his wife and seven children! Such incidents as this are an inevitabh outcome of the red tape system which attempts to de-rermine a man s general efficiency according to his ability to answer questions that have.very little to do with the practical work which he ih commissioned to perform. There is no doubt whatever that the recent examin- amination ordained by the police boarci as a step fn the direction of civil service reform has .left scores of men still upon duty who were not half an Jaithful and deserving as this poor soul who could- ,not pass, and finds, himself confronted 'by a helplesB family for whom he is no longer able to provide.
