# Popular Tales from the Norse/The Cock the Cuckoo and the Blackcock

THE COCK, THE CUCKOO, AND THE BLACKCOCK.
[This Is another of those tales in which the birds' notes must be imitated.]
Once on a time the Cock, the Cuckoo, and the Blackcock bought a cow between them. But when they came to share it, and couldn't agree which should buy the others out, they settled that he who woke first in the morning should have the cow.
So the Cock woke first
"Now the cow's mine! Now the cow's mine! Hurrah! hurrah! "
he crew, and as he crew, up awoke the Cuckoo,
"Half cow! Half cow!"
sang the Cuckoo, and woke up the Blackcock,
"A like share, a like share; Dear friends, that's only fair! Saw see! See saw!"
That's what the Blackcock said.
And now, can you tell me which of them ought to have the cow?
# Popular Tales from the Norse/The Fox as Herdsman

THE FOX AS HERDSMAN.
Once on a time there was a woman who went out to hire a herdsman, and she met a bear.
"Whither away, Goody?" said Bruin.
"Oh, I'm going out to hire a herdsman," answered the woman.
"Why not have me for a herdsman?" said Bruin.
"Well, why not?" said the woman. "If you only knew how to call the flock; just let me hear."
"OW, OW!" growled the bear.
"No, no! I won't have you," said the woman, as soon as she heard him say that, and off she went on her way.
So, when she had gone a bit farther, she met a wolf. "Whither away, Goody?" asked the Wolf.
"Oh," said she, "I'm going out to hire a herdsman."
"Why not have me for a herdsman?" said the Wolf.
"Well, why not? if you can only call the flock; let me hear," said she.
"Uh, Uh!" said the Wolf.
"No, no!" said the woman; "you'll never do for me."
Well, after she had gone a while longer, she met a fox.
"Whither away, Goody?" asked the Fox.
"Oh, I'm just going out to hire a herdsman," said the woman.
​"Why not have me for your herdsman?" asked the Fox.
"Well, why not?" said she; "if you only knew how to call the flock; let me hear."
"Dil-dal-holom," sung out the Fox, in such a fine clear voice.
"Yes; I'll have you for my herdsman," said the woman; and so she set the Fox to herd her flock.
The first day the Fox was herdsman he ate up all the woman's goats; the next day he made an end of all her sheep; and the third day he ate up all her kine. So, when he came home at even, the woman asked what he had done with all her flocks?
"Oh!" said the Fox, "their skulls are in the stream, and their bodies in the holt."
Now, the Goody stood and churned when the Fox said this, but she thought she might as well step out and see after her flock; and while she was away the Fox crept into the churn and ate up the cream. So when the Goody came back and saw that, she fell into such a rage, that she snatched up the little morsel of the cream that was left, and threw it at the Fox as he ran off, so that he got a dab of it on the end of his tail, and that's the reason why the fox has a white tip to his brush.
# Presidential Weekly Address - 2 August 2014

Weekly address delivered on [2 August 2014].
THE PRESIDENT: Hi, everybody. My top priority as President is doing everything I can to create more jobs and more opportunities for hardworking families to get ahead.
On Friday, we learned that our economy created over 200,000 new jobs in July. That’s on top of about 300,000 new jobs in June. We’re now in a six-month streak with at least 200,000 new jobs each month. That hasn’t happened since 1997. All told, our businesses have created 9.9 million jobs over the past 53 months. That’s the longest streak of private-sector job creation in our history.
Because of you – because of your hard work and determination – America has recovered faster and come farther than almost any other advanced country on Earth. The economy is clearly getting stronger. Things are clearly getting better. And the decisions we make now can keep things moving in that direction.
That’s what’s at stake right now. Making sure our economy works for every working American. Making sure that people who work hard can get ahead. That’s why I’ve been pushing for common-sense ideas like rebuilding our infrastructure in a way that supports millions of good jobs and helps our businesses compete. Raising the minimum wage. Making it easier for working folks to pay off their student loans. That’s why I’ve been pushing for fair pay and paid leave.
These policies have two things in common. All of them would help working families feel more stable and secure. And all of them have been blocked or ignored by Republicans in Congress.
That’s why my administration keeps taking what actions we can on our own to help working families – because Congress is doing so little for working families. House Republicans actually got together this week and voted to sue me for taking actions on my own. And then they left town for the month without settling a bunch of unfinished business that matters to working families across America.
The bottom line is this – we’ve come a long way these past five and a half years. Our challenges are nowhere near as daunting as they were back then. But imagine how much farther along our economy would be – how much stronger our country would be – if Congress would do its job.
I’ll never stop trying to work with both parties to get things moving faster for the middle class. And I could use your help. If you see your Member of Congress around home this month, tell him or her what’s on your mind. Ask them why they haven’t passed bills to raise the minimum wage or help with student loans or enact fair pay for women.
And when they return from vacation next month, instead of trying to pass partisan bills on party lines, hopefully we can come together with the sense of common purpose that you expect. And in the meantime, I will never stop doing whatever I can, whenever I can, not only to make sure that our economy succeeds, but that people like you succeed.
Thanks, and have a great weekend.

# Presidential Weekly Address - 2 February 2013

Weekly address to be delivered on 2 February 2013.
THE PRESIDENT: Hi, everybody. In the coming weeks, we face some important decisions about how to pay down our debt in a way that grows our economy and creates good jobs – decisions that will make a real difference in the strength and pace of our recovery.
We began this year with economists and business leaders saying that we are poised to grow in 2013. And there are real signs of progress: Home prices are starting to climb again. Car sales are at a five-year high. Manufacturing is roaring back. Our businesses created 2.2 million jobs last year. And we just learned that our economy created more jobs over the last few months than economists originally thought.
But this week, we also received the first estimate of America’s economic growth over the last few months. And it reminded us that bad decisions in Washington can get in the way of our economic progress. We all agree that it’s critical to cut unnecessary spending. But we can’t just cut our way to prosperity. It hasn’t worked in the past, and it won’t work today. It could slow down our recovery. It could weaken our economy. And it could cost us jobs – now, and in the future.
What we need instead is a balanced approach; an approach that says let’s cut what we can’t afford but let’s make the investments we can’t afford to live without. Investments in education and infrastructure, research and development – the things that will help America compete for the best jobs and new industries. Already, Republicans and Democrats have worked together to reduce our deficits by $2.5 trillion. That’s a good start. But to get the rest of the way, we need a balanced set of reforms.
For example, we need to lower the cost of health care in programs like Medicare that are the biggest drivers of our deficit, without just passing the burden off to seniors. And these reforms must go hand-in-hand with eliminating excess spending in our tax code, so that the wealthiest individuals and biggest corporations can’t take advantage of loopholes and deductions that aren’t available to most Americans.
2013 can be a year of solid growth, more jobs, and higher wages. But that will only happen if we put a stop to self-inflicted wounds in Washington. Everyone in Washington needs to focus not on politics but on what’s right for the country; on what’s right for you and your families. That’s how we’ll get our economy growing faster. That’s how we’ll strengthen our middle class. And that’s how we’ll build a country that rewards the effort and determination of every single American.
Thanks. And have a great weekend.

# Presidential Weekly Address - 2 December 2017

Weekly address delivered on 2 December 2017
Sixty-two years ago this week, a brave seamstress in Montgomery, Alabama, uttered one word that changed history. On the evening of December 1st, 1955, when a bus driver told Rosa Parks to hand over her seat, she looked him in the eye and she told him no. No, she was not going to give up her seat because of her color, or the color of her skin.
Rosa Parks remained strong and stayed in her seat to defend the truth etched into our Declaration of Independence that all of us, regardless of the color of our skin, are created equal by God.
Her courageous act inspired a young Christian pastor, the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., along with thousands of others in Montgomery, to join the movement and boycott the city bus service.
After 381 days, the city ordinance was finally overturned. Soon, millions of others across the country joined the civil rights movement, and helped secure the freedom and the equality that is every American's birthright.
Today, our nation is better, our country more just, and our people more united because of the bravery of Rosa Parks. Rosa Parks legacy, continues to inspire our citizens to pursue a better tomorrow, and to build a country where every American child, no matter their skin color, can live without fear, dream without limits and take their rightful place in the great story of our nation.
Thank you. God bless you and God bless America.

# Portland, Oregon: Its History and Builders/Volume 3/Winfield S. Chapman

WINFIELD S. CHAPMAN.
Winfield S. Chapman of Portland, is one of the oldest among the native residents here, his birth having occurred in the then village of Portland on the 3d of July, 1850. He is a son of Col. W. W. Chapman, whose biography precedes this. His parents removed to southern Oregon in 1853, but returned to Portland in 1861, so that Winfield S. Chapman largely acquired his early education in the schools of this city, principally in the old Portland Academy, from which he was graduated in 1868.
Following his graduation, he entered the office of the city surveyor as assistant and a year after attaining his majority became chief of that department, which position he filled for two years, when a change in political administration occurred and a democrat was appointed. Turning his attention to the field of journalism in 1878, he founded the Daily Bee, of which he was editor. He made this a popular and successful paper, but in the fall of that year sold out and again became city surveyor, which position he held until 1881. In that year the city council again became democratic, and he once more left the office; but in 1883 was again appointed, so serving until 1884, when he resigned in order to accept the position of superintendent of streets, which he held until the office became elective in 1891, at which time he refused the nomination. During the '70s he devoted several thousand dollars to assisting his father in the projected railroad from Salt Lake to Portland and surveyed a part of the line at his own expense. During the following decade he was the controlling spirit in the installation and operation of the Jefferson street steam ferry, which after long litigation broke the monopoly that had been controlled by the Stark street ferry for many years. He was also the organizer and the main promoter in the construction of the waterworks on the east side of the river, the first system established there, and obtained a franchise for, located and planned the Madison street bridge, but sold the ferry and franchise before the work on the bridge had progressed far.
The panic of 1893 found Mr. Chapman with real estate on his hands to the extent of two hundred thousand dollars, but the decline in the real estate market was so great and so rapid that his entire wealth was swept away. In 1899 he went to Skagway, Alaska, where he edited the Daily Alaskan until his return to Portland to prepare for departure to Cape Nome, whither he went in the spring of 1900 as part owner of an outfit of machinery for mining gold from the beach sands. This enterprise, however, was not successful. In 1904 he accepted the position of district engineer in the office of the city engineer, and has since acted in that capacity. While he has given assiduous attention to the duties of the office, which have been discharged with the utmost fidelity and ability. He is also interested in various private enterprises which are now proving sources of profitable return. In politics he has likewise been an active republican, stanchly advocating the principles of the party.

Preston v. Prather
The plaintiffs below, the defenants in error here, are citizens of Missouri, and for many years have been copartners, doing business at Maryville, in that state, under the name of the Modaway Valley Bank of Maryville. The efe ndants below are citizens of different states, one of them of Michigan, and the others of Illinois, and for a similar period have been engaged in business as bankers at Chicago, in the latter state. In 1873 the plaintiffs opened an account with the defendants, which continued until the spring of 1883. The average amount of deposits by them with the defendants each year during this period was between two and four hundred thousand dollars. Interest was allowed at the rate of 2 1/2 per cent. on the deposits above $3,000, but nothing on deposits under that sum. On the 7th of July, 1880, the plaintiffs purchased of the defendants 4 per cent. bonds of the United States to the nominal amount of $12,000, but the bonds being at a premium in the market, the plaintiffs paid for them, including the accrued interest thereon, $13,005. The purchase was made upon a request by letter from the plaintiffs, and all subsequent communications between the parties respecting the bonds, and the conditions upon which they were to be held, are contained in their correspondence. The letter directing the purchase concluded with a request that the defendants send to the plaintiffs a description and the numbers of the bonds, and hold the same as a special deposit. In the subsequent account of the purchase rendered by the defendants, the plaintiffs were informed that the bonds were held on special deposit posit subject to their order. The numbers of the bonds appear upon the bond register kept by the defendants, and the bonds remained in their custody until some time between November, 1881, and November, 1882, when they were stolen and disposed of by their assistant cashier, one Ker, who absconded from the state on the 16th of January, 1883. The present action is brought to recover their value.

* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
116 U.S. 661
Preston v. Manard
Argued: March 1, 1886. ---
It is unnecessary to consider the difference between the claim in the reissue and the claim in the original patent, because, assuming the reissue not to be invalidated thereby, yet it sets forth no patentable invention. The hosereel, the standard, the brace, the nozzle-holder, and their use in combination being all old, the description of the hose-real, in the specification and claim, as 'a reel of large diameter to allow the water to pass through the hose when partially wound thereon' is not sufficient to sustain the patent. The requisite diameter of the reel, and its proportion to the size of the hose, are not defined in the specification, but are left to be ascertained by experiment, or from general knowledge. If the patentee had discovered anything new in the size or proportions of the reel requisite to allow the water to flow through the hose, he should have described it with such precision as to enable others to construct the apparatus. The fact that water will flow through a hose wound on a reel, if the diameter of the reel is large enough, and the curves or angles are not too abrupt, is a matter of common knowledge, which no one can appropriate to his own use to the exclusion of the public. In any view of the case, the specification describes nothing that the patentee is entitled to claim, but only what every one has a right to use without his assistance. Guidet v. Brooklyn, 105 U.S. 550; Flood v. Hicks, 2 Biss. 169; S.C.. 4 Fisher, Pat. Cas 156; King v. Wheeler, 2 Barn. & Ald. 345, 354; Macnamara v. Hulse, Car. & M. 471, 477; Kay v. Marshall, 7 Scott, 548; S.C.. 5 Bing. N. C. 492; 1 Beav. 535; 8 Clark & F. 245; West, H. L. 682; 2 Webst. Pat. Cas. 34, 68, 75, 77, 82, 84.
To sustain this patent would be to deprive the public of the right to arrange and use a well-known apparatus in the only way in which its purpose can be beneficially accomplished. Decree affirmed.
