One of those rare sights, observed 
once in years, was presented by the 
rising moon on Monday evening. The 
entire sky was filled with fleecy, 
white clouds which lay in close fur- 
Radiating 
in all directions the cloud-lines re- 
flected the bright moonlight with an 
intensity approaching that of the 
aurora borealis.

Chief Urquhart of the Arlington po- 
lice chugged up in his police auto the 
_ other day and left-the machine at the 
curb while he ran in for a tete-a-tete 
with Chief: McGarr. Now, the Arling- 
‘ton police auto wears the inscription, 
‘A. P. D.’ on front to indicate that it 
is an Arlington police machine. When 
Chief Urquhart rejoined his machine, 
however, the insignia was ‘A. P. A..,’ 
some wag having pasted a paper ‘A’ 
over the D. > 
The Mass. Police Monthly in its 
- October issue is most complimentary 
of the local police department. It 
says: 
“Manchester-by-the-Sea boasts one 
of the finest police equipments to be 
found in a town of the size. Man- 
‘chester is known as one of the richest 
towns in the state, probably because it 
has more millionaires to the square 
inch than any place in the state of 
like population. It has miles of beau- 
tiful streets which are the delight of 
motorists, so much so that Manches- 
ter has this year added a motorcycle 
to its equipment. Byron A. Bullock, 
the motorcycle officer in the little 
town, has reduced speeding to a mini- 
mum this season. He patrols 15 
miles of highway a day. The little 
town has an up-to-date motor ambul- 
ance and a completely equipped emer- 
gency police hospital. Chief -William 
H. Sullivan is an efficient, up-to-date 
police officer and is above the average 
small town official. He has five regu- 
lars and one reserve under him.”

MANCHESTER BOY 
GIvES SOME “IysiDE” Movit IN¥For- 
MATION From Spot WHERE 
PicrurREs ARE TAKEN. 
ATRONS of the “movies” who 
are held spellbound by the marvel- 
ous feats of some of the stars will be 
interested to read of just how these 
stunts are pulled off. Sayre Merrill, 
connected with the construction de- 
partment of the Salt Lake line, run- 
ning from Salt Lake to Los Angeles, 
had the privilege of witnessing some 
of the picture-taking a while ago in 
which the popular- “Hazards of 
Helen” are depicted. He writes: 
“Have you ever seen any movies 
called - “The Hazards of Helen? 
Most of the pictures are taken on the 
Glendale branch of our road. Helen 
is the telegraph operator at a station 
known as Lonepoint. As we wer: 
chaining up by it the other day, Wat- 
son said, ‘There’s a new station on 
me. I never heard of it before and 
it isn’t on the time card.’ I went over 
to look at it and then discovered it to 
be a station with only an exterior— 
in other words a movie joint. By 
dint of inquiry we found out for 
whom it was made. 
“Three days of last week the movie 
company was there and it had two 
Pedro trains hired for the day. 
“Saturday while only Bill and my- 
self were working we quit an hour 
early and went to see some pictures 
being taken. A man takes the place 
ef Helen in all cases where much 
danger is involved. 
“In this picture Helen was on the 
front of an engine, revolver in hand. 
An automobile came. tearing along- 
side and turned across the path of the 
engine while Helen jumped into the 
auto. 
“The man who doubles for Helen 
is her husband. He wears her clothes 
and a wig. At a distance of 50 feet 
you cam only tell which is the man by 
his walk and the muscles of his arms 
showing.

“The first time the stunt was tried 
Helen’s husband jumped too hard and 
turned a somersault on out of the 
auto and on the track. Both his legs 
were on the track and I thought for 
sure that they would be cut off. 
However, by some mighty quick 
scrambling, he got his legs out of the 
way; although the pilot beam hit him 
quite a wallop on the back. 
‘He didn’t lose his nerve, and in 
five minutes he did the stunt over, 
this time calculating his jump nicely. 
“In one place a long chute down a 
hill and to a platform was built, which 
was used, | am told, by Helen in slid- 
ing down and jumping on an engine 
to save the President’s Special.”
