noticeable The entries are nearly all

MECHANICS OF THE STATES
Some Of Them HAD Curious Origi1s During
Their Early Settlement

State nicknames in this country have
begun to lose their aptneSs. New Hamp-
shire's name, the Granite state" fits
almost as we'll some other mountain
states and she never really deserved
to be called the Switzerland of Ameri-
ca, since her mountains are but hills
compared with the mountains of Switz-
erland. Several of the Rocky mountain
states more nearly deserve this title.
Colorado, for example, has forty-one
mountains more than 900 feet high,
and, in ALL 139 mountains more than
1880 feet high. Colorado's own name
of the Centennial state is one that no
other can ever dispute with her, though
name Golden" with California.
Names forests are disappearing so
rapidly that some Of the northwestern
states may soon have a better title to
the name Pine Tree state" There are
more famous bays than those of Massa-
chusetts, and certainly Chesapeake bay,
if considered only as body of water. has
more distinction than Massachusetts,.
and, historically speaking, the Chesa-
peake is quite as famous, so that the
name "Bay state might be given to
Maryland.
There are quite as characteristic green
mountains elsewhere in the United
States as those that gave Vermont her
French name. The Empire state
seems inappropriate to any Democratic
community, but it is appropriate to
New York if to any state of the union.
and it is likely to be a long while before
even Texas can lay claim to the title.
The name that Texas takes pride in
the Lone Star state" is certainly hers
by right, as she Is the only state TO
hav ecome to be an independent republic.
totally unconfederated with any other
state Pennsylvania is no longer the
keystone of the nations arch, just as
it is no longer politically true that as
| PENNSYLVANIA goes so goes the union.
| If Delaware ever deserved her name of
| the Diamond state" she certainly can
| not claim it as against Rhode Island,
| since the latter is not only much small
er, but, as well, much richer.
No state disputes Virginia's pictur-
esque name, the "Old Dominion" though
! few people realize that 1t dates back To
the time when our Atlantic coast knew
only two ill-defined political divisions
| New England and Virginia. Ohio's buck
ewes are no longer distinguishing fea-
ture of her rapidly disappearing wood
/, lands. Indiana is being civilized out of
her hoosierdom. and the WOLVERINE must
be pretty scarce in the state to which
the beast has given nickname.
Connecticut has learned so many
| smart tricks since the days of the tradi-
tional wooden nutmegs that her neigh
bors could easily discover an apter name
of reproach. Louisiana doubtless has
as many pelicans as Florida or any
other state, and so may we'll hold hel

In this ground are buried ministers, lawyers doctors. judges, merchants and those that served in the French war, Revolutionary WAT, War of 1872 those who served in the Legisla- lure of the state besides the forefathers who have cleared the farms, built the roads, planted the trees and done so much for the comfort of the present genera ti3n. It is hoped the revival of interest Which has taken place in other places ajlI be shown here and proper respect may he shown for the resting places of the fathers.
