SERGEANT WAS VERY TIRED.

He was up before the trial board on
a charge of laziness. He was a desk
sergeant from a west. side police sta-
tion and the charges and specifications
were that he was always exceedingly

indeed, that he was so grievonsly af-
flicted with ennui that he would not.
spell out in full the longer words in
making reports of daily occurences to
the general superintendent of police, a
duty which fell to his lot as desk ser-
geant, but was much given to the habit
of'abbreviation. This, it seems. says
a Chicago exchange, had been a
constant source of worry and an-

of the station, andiwhcrt repeated warn-

ferred and he was brought. before the
tribunal, composed of the chief and the
inspectors of police. The story of his
shortcomings and short spellings was
told in detail and as a. clincher his cap-
tain said: ‘ .
"Why, chief, this man is so lazy that
when he makes out a report instead of
addressing it to ‘Joseph Kipley. Gener-
al Superintendent,’ he writes ‘Jos Kip,
Gen Supc.’ If he came to the word ‘phil~

was philanthropy or Phil Daly.”
