THE b. Y A. student from Wash
columns yesterday, is very DESTROYS of
being registered and has secured the
services OF Attorneys j. E. Booth and
Robert Anderson to secure if possible
that privilege for him. Mandamus
proceedings have been instituted be-
fore Judge King and Registrar Brown
will appear in court tomorrow at noon
to show cause for his refusal to register
this particular student. His name
is Andrew Sproul. He claims to have
more right 10 register than other stud
ents for the reason that while his
chief object in Provo is to acquire an
education at the B Y. academy he has
sold his home in Washington county
and has brought his family and house
hold goods and located here for two
years at least and perhaps longer.
He claims the meaning of and
his attorneys claim, that under
these circumstances he is a bona
fide resident of Provo wholly within
the law. His attorneys, of conrse, are
working for glory only and they have
the assistance of Heelers Dugdale,
Hatten and others, entirely without
other recompense that the man Snroul
promises to vote the republican ticket
from top TO bottom and without
scratch if he is permitted to register.
The registrars and all other good citi-
zens hope that Judge King will decide
this case in such way that all may
easily understand what class of acad
envy students are entitled to register
and Whist class are not, for it is very
unpleasant matter and seems to come
up each year with recurring and in
creased unpleasantness. Registrar
Brown has retained Attorneys John B.
Miner and D. u. Houtz to prescribe
his side of the controversy before his
honor.

The LORDS Arrangement Best.

A New England man who a few
years since settled in north Georgia
has found the farming methods-or
lack of methods-prcvailing there a
great trial to his ideas, educated as
they are by northern farms.
The little piece Of scrap iron there
used for plow is the most exaspera-
ting Of all the many goads to the tenn
per of the Vermonter, and against this
implement he has vowed eternal war
fare.
Riding one day during the plowing
season past the red clay aad cobble-
stones of what Bill Nye calls the
"erect farms" of north Georgia, he
noted the enactment of the usual far
mer. Calling the loose-jointed cracker
to the fence, he delivered lecture to
him on how to plow and what kind Of
tools to use.
"Why do you persist" said the
northern man, warmly, ''in obstinately
fooling along year after year, scratch
ing around among these stones with a
plow like a jackknife, putting your
seed on top of the ground, getting
cotton plant only where it happens to
come up by good luck? You have
been told over and over the right way.
Now, why in the thunder don't you
adopt it?''
The farmer quietly listened, chew
ing hard on his mouthful Of tobacco,
while his adviser continued even more
hotly:
"For instance look at the way you
are plowing now. Why don'tyou have
a plow that will cut into the ground
and turn it over in decent furrow ?
That thing you use only scratches the
soil; you don't even turn the weeds
under"

voiced cracker, in answer, "hit's this

The. Monkey In. the, Nan.

To see the monkey in the man you
have only to study the faces, bodies,
and habits of babies. Such is the
theme of a very interesting article
contributed oy Mr.. S. S. Buckman to
the new number of the Nineteenth
Century. The actions of children are,
indeed, he says, like ancient monu.
ments of prehistoric times. The hu-
man infant is an interesting object of
scientific research, and even a cross
baby should be calmly contemplated
by the philosophic mind" The West
| minister Gazette subjoins a dozen of
| the numerous illustrations which Mr.,
Buckman gives to show how survivals
| of our simian ancestry may be found
by any nursery philosopher:
/. Monkeys are snub-nosed (simian.)
So are the babies.
2. Babies have pouch-like checks.
To judge from ecclesiastical monu-
meDts, this characteristic is supposed
to be ,spociully angelic. 1t is really
mopkey-likc. Baby cheeks are the
vestiges Of cheek pouches, possessed
for storing away food, as in Cercopi-
thecus, a monkey in which this habit
of storing.may be observed at the Zoo
logical Gardens, if visitors feed it.
3. At the base of the vertebral col
umn. babies have a deep circular de-
preston. !, This is the mark of the
monkeys tail.
4. Babies (as DR.. Louis Robinson
has shown) have superior arm power
and very shortilegs. So have monkeys.
5. Babies in catching hold of any
thing don't use their thumbs, but
clasp it between the fingers and. palm.
This is the action of monkeys in 60
ing from bough to bough.
6. A baby can move any of its toes
Independently, and it can move them
one. from aoother SO as to make V
between any Of them. As it grows
older it loses this power, and also the
power of turning it's ankle; but that
it has such power over its muscles
when young points to ancestors who
used their feet more than their hands
as organs for picking up small objects,
and who relied on their arms and hands
for supporting, their bodies.
7. Babies so to sleep on their stom-
achs, with their limbs curled up under
them-a survival from our four-footed
ancestors.
8. Babies are rocked to sleep-an
imitation of the swaying to and fro of
the branches where our monkey an
cestors lived. Even our nursery dit
ties (''Lullahy baby on the tree top'')
point back to the arboreal ages.
8. The stair-climbing instinct of ba-
bies Qikc the tree climbing propensity
of boys) show:
10. The fruit-stealing instinct is a
survival from monkeydom.
IL. Children are fond of picking at
anything loose-bccause monkeys pick
off the bari, from trees in order to
search for insects.
IL. Children are very fond Of roll
ing. This points to the time when
our ancestors had hairy bodies tenant
ed by parasites, and allayed the irri-
tation by rolling.

An Unexpected Answer.

Waal-er-hcm !-children," be-
gan Colonel Handy Polk, the we'll
known real estate, loan, and insurance
agent of Oklahoma, who had wander
ed into Sunday school, and been in
vited by the superintendent to address
the children, II didn't come yere
with the expectation Of maxim
speech ; but now that I've been called
on, I'll say few words on the-er-
ah-duties of honesty and-cr-truth.
Honesty is the best policy. Alwers
be honest, children, and alwcrs be
truthful. As-cr-What s-his-name
truly said, an honest man is the-er-
er-noblest work Of God. And truth
full man is better-cr-ah-many spar

a different world this would be ! But,
alas they hain't. Instead, the gen.
erality of mankind in-er-general is
forever tryin to git the better Of the
-er-cr-generality Of mankind in
er-ah-gencral, SO to speak. From
this We should learn-should learn, as
it were, to-er-be honest. But I'll
tell you a little story to sorter illus
trate my meanin'. Once on a time
thar was a boy whose parents were
poor, but honest, and tried to raise
him up in thc-er-way he should go.
But he wouldn' It obey en-, and seemed
to take a delight in doin' wrong. lie
began stealth little things when he
was no higher than the table, and
'peared to prefer to lie when the truth
would have done just as we'll, or even
better. He grew worse and worse as
time passed on, and by the time he
had grown to be man he had become
regular out-and-out scoundrel. He
made business Of swindlin', lyin
and cheatin' and seemed to glory in
his shame. And what do you suppose
became of him? I ask you, children,
where do you suppose he is at now ?"
And the Colonels innocent hearers
answered, in one voice:
"He now stands before US !

lLuelfer Match Inventor.


It ha, been nerallytbelieved, and
we gave the statement some years ago
in the Leisure Hour, says the editor,
that the invention of lucifer matches
was due to Mr., now Sir Isaac Holden,
NJ. P, who still survives as one of the
oldest members of Parliament. This
was in 1929, as we then said. In boy
hood, before that time, little bottle
of phosphorus in case was the ne
plus ultra of invention, and was used
instead Of the ruder flint and steel
with tinder, either for domestic pur-
poses or for the surreptitious feasts of
school-boys.
It turns out that the real inventor
was John Walker, an. apothecary of
Stockton, two years earlier, in. 1927.
In lecture in the Borough Hall of,
Stockton on IssMethods Of obtaining
light and fire in all ages and among all
nations Mr.. Parrot, the lecturer, ex-
hibited the old shop book of Mr..
Walker for that year. 1t was shown
that box Of lucifer matches, getting
light by friction, was sold in April,
1927, to Mr.. dickson, solicitor, for
is. Sd.
So important is the discovery deem
ed that an influential committee is
formed to erect a statue to John
Walker. Sir Isaac Holden is an hon.
orary member of this Stockton COM
mittee, stating, when nominated, that
he was not aware of the priority Of
invention. Other claims have been
made in France and Germany, but the
honor or good fortune certainly be-
longs to John Walker, who died in
May, 1859, aged 50.
1t was the beginning of a most won
derful movement in history, art and
commerce. Think Of the supersti-
tious awe with which, not in Jerusa-
lem alone, but throughout the nations
who are ignorant Of the invention, is
hailed the miraculous" light obtain
ed from lucifer matches How vast
the wealth derived among civilized
races from the manufacture of safety
matches of all kinds A memorial
plate has meanwhile been fixed on the
site Of Mr.. Walkers old shop in the
High Street of Stockton.
