Successful Han

Beaming with pleasure, General Pao Yulin. Commissioner of Safety for Peiping, passed down a line of 199 detectives in the Central police station last week and checked their names against a long list. As part of their graduation exercises, the Peiping sleuths were required to disguise themselves. Here they were, as beggars, peddlers, water coolies, peasants. A few had even come as old women, and General Pao Yulin did not recognize one. At the end of the line he discovered that a detective named Han was not present. The captain of detectives bowed numbly.

"Detective Han," said he, "came for his test disguised as a garbage collector. He smelled so successfully that we were obliged to turn him from the door."
