EE-A little village IN Kansas used TO
have the somewhat romantic and by no
means unpleasant name of Grasshopper
Falls, but, thinking the designation too
commonplace, the ambitious people had
/; changed to Sauetrelle. The wicked
and. perverse generation that dwelt
thereahout liked not this outlandish ap-
peIlaiion. and so called the little village
Sow Tall until that came to be ac-
cepted as its name. Having borne this
humiliation as long as they can, the
people just appealed to the Legislature
and got back their old name Grasshop
per Falls.
