Give . Dog had Name, and Hang Hin

A petition from the inhabitants OF the
London suburb, Shepherds Bush, reveals
an entirely new difficulty against which
country boomers have to contend. IL seems
that Miss Braddon invariably put into her
novels few low, common families and
made them reside at Shepherds Bush
Other novelists followed her evil example,
until nowadays every English novelist
puts his low characters down as residents
Of Shepherds Bush. The result Is that
all tho reputable people who could move
loft, and rents went down and fiction BE-
came fact. The land and house owners
of Shepherds Bush ask the county council
20 give the place another name, 70 that
their efforts 20 restore It's ancient respect.

Press Excursions.

Referring to the recent visit of the
Kansas Editorial Association to LOUISE
ana, the Baton Rouge Advocate says:
1t seems strange that the press asso-
Citations of all other States have annual
excursions all over the country while
the Louisiana Press Association never
does. What's the matter with the
Louisiana Press Association taking a
jaunt over the country a little this
year, Cuba, Mexico, Niagara Falls,
Washington and other places present
points Of interest to the majority of
our members, and a trip there could do
no possible harm.
The question the Advocate asks is
one that has been pulling us for some
time. We recall the fact that the Mis-
souri, Press Association has in recent
years made four excursions to Mexico,
that the Georgia Press Association
passed Crowley on its way to that
interesting country last May when our
Association was in session at that place,
and that numerous other Press AssOcia-
tons, North and South, frequently
take free rides across the length and
breadth of the land. Perhaps Uncle
John or the Executive Committee could
arrange for such an outing for our
Association when we meet at Donald
sOnville in the latter part of April.
