Shinnston band of ten pieces. The
band was regularly uniformed and
looked very trim.
Following was a marshal in charge
of mounted Calithumpians, whose
attire and antics provoked much
merriment.
Columns of Maecabees in uniform
and citizens clothes were next in
line. They made fine showing and
the uniforms were especially attrac-
tive. Marshals had this feature in
charge and moved it gracefully.
The Red Men came next with a
splendid showing. They We're adj

Belgian Inventor Credited with Inven-

Roller ska ting is older than most
folk imagine. Joseph Merlin, Bel
gian born in i735, a clever, inventive
fellow, came TO London in 1850 and
exhibited his novelties at museum
in Spring Gardens, and afterward In
Princes street, Hanover square. Hav-
ing made pair of skates to run on
wheels, he appeared with them at
masked ball given by Mrs. Cornelys in
Carlisle House, Soho. He was duly
invited to display his skill. Having
put on the skates he took violin and
began whirling about to his own mu-
sic. One thing he had not studied,
however, and that was how to guide
himself and to stop quickly. and the
result was that before the perform
ances had lasted any time he dashed
into an immense mirror valued at
$500, smashed his fiddle to bits and
seriously injured himself. That ap-

Tho Declining Birth Rate.

Much has been said about the de-
clining birth rate in the United
States, and no doubt discussion of
the subject will be greatly stimulat-
ed by bulletin recently issued by
the census bureau showing that since
1860 the decline has been very
marked.
Men have indulged the fancy that
through public discussion and con-
sideration of the alleged evils of Il
declining birth rate the tendency
could be checked. 1t is an idle
dream, if there ever was one; for the
birth rate is dependent upon condi-
tions which are not subject to ap-
preciable influence through public
discussion.
An analogy may be found in the
drift from rural districts to cities,
noticeable not alone in the United
States but in some, if not all, parts
Of the continent of Europe as we'll.
Men have deplored it as great evil,
but the drift has continued. So the
declining birth rate of this and other
countries mas been deplored, and the
tendency will no doubt remain I'M
changed so long as conditions con-
tinue what they are today.
Political economists and sociolog-
lists are not agreed in regard to the
the cause of declining birth rate,
but probably as good solution as
any is to attribute it to the complex
civilization of this age. 1t may be
natures provision against too rapid
increase in population, having IN
view the lower death rate compared
with that of few generations ago.
In any event, it is matter which
will take care of itself. and all the
bulletins which the census bureau
may issue will not change the result.

Modern Brand Records.

Chief Brand Clerk Baker of the
secretary of states Office is busy
completing card index OF the 49,
600 recorded brands of this safe.
When completed this will be the best
and most comprehensive index of
cattle brands ever made. The great
difficulty in making records of cattle
brands in this country has been to
find a method of recording them
that is comprehensive. Mr.. Baker
has made study of the matter and
his index system is as nearly perfect
as can be devised. The great diff
Guilty has always been to avoid re-
cording duplicate brands. Previous
to the adoption of the present sys.
tenn the issuing of duplicate brand 5
was of almost constant occurrence
and much trouble and confusion re-
suited. In the future this will be
practically impossible as the index is
so arranged that any brand on record
can be found almost instantly. As
a result of this system an almost
unlimited supply of brands that are
not in use IN this state can be had.
These records are now of the very
greatest value to cattlemen and 1t is
due to the insistence of the Colora
do Cattle & Horse Growers Associa-
tion that an expert be kept in charge
Of the records, that has brought
about this result-Record-S Stock
