 ADJUSTMENTS MADE

turers in the north were able to manu- facture and ship stuff here cheaper than the local manufacturers tould deliver their product because of the low freight rates given to the northern man.

of January

The first month in the year has al
history, but 1t began most specially to
be recognized as such during the reign
OF Charles /. II was on January 1,
1912, that the attempt was made to
arrest the five members. On the tenth
OF the month, three years later, Arch.
bishop Laud, was beheaded, and Jan
uary 30, 1649. IA the kings own head
laid upon the block.
There is probably no act Of parlia.
ment which has ever been the cause
OF such amazing ~dissensions and dis
cord as that which brought about the
union between Great Britain and Ire.
land. This came into force upon Jan.
uary 1. 1901. II was in the same
month that Richard Trevithick. the
Cornish inventor. perfected the first
steam locomotive which ever moved
upon an English road.
The great William Pitt. the most
able prime minister who ever con.
trolled the destinies of the kingdom,
came into Office at Christmas, 1888,
n died In January, 1906. His great
rival. Charles James Fox, born in Jan.
uary, 1749. only survived Pitt six
months.
One of the greatest boons that a ma.
ton ever received from its govern.
ment was conferred upon Great Britain
on January l, 1~S40-namely, penny
postage. Adhesive stamps had been
invented by Mr.. James Chalmers OF
Dundee, six years previously, and
these superseded Mulready's envelope
later in the same year.
January has for a long time past
been a very notable month In the his
tory Of the British royal family. On
January %, 1858, the Princess Royal
was married to Prince Frederick vii
liam Of Prussia. The German kaiser
was born in January. 1859.
Prince Henry OF Battenberg's death
occurred on January 20, 1896. and the
duke of Teck's life came to an end or
