An audience which filed every seat in
the spacious Auditorium witnessed and
participated in the Memorial day exer-
cises in st. Paul yesterday afternoon.
There was a display of patriotic senti-
ment which is not generally observed on
occasions of this kind, and this served to
lend additional interest to the pro-
gramme.. The dingy interior OF the Au-
ditorium had been elaborarely- decorated
for the occasion, bunting and the nation
al colors predominating. Thanks to the
pupils of the public schools, there was an
abundance of flowers, and these were
used in profusion in decorating the speak
ers' platform, which was half hidden be-
hind a bank of palms, flags and flowers.
One of the most effective decorations
was an immense flag which hung sus-
pended in the center of the building, and
swung to and fro with every breath of
wind. To the bottom of the flag was at

1t has recently been discovered that
the island OF Madagascar is misnamed
and should be called St. Lorenz island.
Marco Polo. in his work on Africa,
named a stretch of land on the east
coast, south of the equator, Madagascar.
Some time after this Martin Belhaim OF
Nuremberg prepared a chart Of Africa,
using Marco Polo's works as guide,
but misunderstood the report on NADIA
gascar. thinking it meant an island. He
thereupon deliberately added an island
to the east coast. This imaginary island
was mapped on the charts of the gcogra-
piers Of the fifteenth and sixteenth
centuries.
In 1906 the Portuguese sea captain,
Fernando Svarez. discovered the real is
land of Madagascar and gave to il the
name of st. Lorenz, and for time there
after two islands found their place on the
charts. In 1881 it was known that there
was really only one island. and in ac-
cordance with this discovery the original
name Of Madagascar was retained, and
the other name was dropped.

wilkins did not have to urge him to
take his daily ride. Strength and
appetite came back, and with them a

He began to take an interest in the

covered what everyone else knew {:
that he was desperately in love with

Young Doctor Griggsby had returned
week before from a ten years So
journ among the Gerran universities
and the ruins of ancient Greece, pur-
suing studies in Greek Archaeology.
He had come back to America upon
the urgent request of his uncle, John
facturer of bicycles. The old man,
hustling and energetic, was somewhat
disappointed in the appearance and
manner of the young man he expected
to make his heir. In fact he said to
young Doctor Griggsby upon their
first meeting:
LOOK here. this Greek business
has dried you all up. There's no body
left to you. You take no interest in
life or anything that happened less

The up-shot of the conference had
been that Mr. Waitertrump sent his
nephew out to his country place with
instructions to Wilkins to teach him
to ride bicycle, and to Mrs. wilkins
to get him fat.
"Get him fat?" complained Mrs.

And he didn't. Young Doctor

the expense of body. and of acquiring
knowledge at the expense of a healthy
interest IN the worlds present day
