.'Whats In a Name p

There is a good deal of silly CHERISH
going the rounds Of the press in regard
to changing the name of st. John cOun-
ty. Wen, what's in a name,'' any
how? ga rose by any other name
would smell as sweet. - If you want
the name changed on account of its
frightful suggestion. then several other
counties should undergo O similar
transformation For instance, although
ones nerves can stand the mention of
Jefferson county and Davis county
reasonably well, when taken separately,
yet when you combine the two the re-
suit is simply hOnifying. To those
persons who are opposed to warm
drinks, the mention of Coffey county
causes immediate spasms. And the
name of Bourbon county IS simply IN
bearable. on account of the double
meaning it preseuts-Uhat of blue-bloOd
democracy, and abiding to a certain
beverage at the mere mention of whose
name, in a prohibition State, the entire
police force should arise en- g5gasse.
Yes, by all means Obliterate the name
of St. John from the map, And when
you have done so, how would it look to
substitute something commencing with
the first letters of the alphabet. ike
Burchard, Bucher, Curtis or COnkling?
