Tho Mississippi of Streets.


A street is like river, with it's hu-
man current carrying all manner Of
drift between its banks Of residences
or shops on either side. And If this
simile be appropriate then New York; s
Broadway is the Mississippi Of streets.
Probably no other avenue in the world
presents so many contrasts in the fot-
sam and jetsam it carries from Har-
lem to the Battery. Every type of hu-
manity-uprooted saplings from farms
and orchards. proud hulled craft in
silks and satins-may be described in
the surging mass. Banker and boot
black. the staggering swell and the
draggled derelict, walk shoulder to
shoulder-rush. rather, for Broadway
Is maelstrom. the embodiment of
New York's hustle and hurry, the place
where nothing can stand still. Rich

everybody seems to be trying to reach

How hon" Would Work.

''Thon" Is the word which has been
suggested for use as an English pro-
noun Of common gender, a luxury
which the English language has thus
far had the fortitude to forego. 1t was
considered suitable for English be-
cause it came from the Greek. Its use
may be illustrated as follows:
If parent desires to spank tnon's
(his or her, as the case may be, child
thon (he or she) should take thon him,
her or it, across thon's knee Then
thon should remove thon's slipper, and
after explaining to the child the repre-
hensibility of thon's conduct thon
should apply the slipper to that por.
ton of thon's anatomy which from
time immemorial has been dedicated to
that purpose.
r 1t may easily be seen from the above
how 'thon" effects great clariication.-

The Greatest Historian.

BY common consent the greatest Of
all historians in Thucydides. the Greek
contemporary of Pericles and author
Of the history of the Peloponnesian
war. One of the greatest tributes that
can be paid to him Is that. according
to the estimate of very able critic.
we have more exact account of a
long and eventful period by Thucyd-
ides than we have of any period In
modern history. equally long and event
ful. and yet all this Is compressed into
single volume. For concise, vigor-
Gus and yet intense presentation Thu
cydides has never been equaled He
Is easily the king Of historians.-New

The POSTAGE Stamp,

Consider the postage stamp. 1t says
nothing regarding the difficulty of the
task assigned to it, but by dint of close
application it usually gets there; also
it delivers the goods.
Again. If one isn't enough to carry
the thing through. two or more by
working harmoniously together see the
thing to finish.
No matter if the (rnail) matter be
weighty. it puts good face (of Wash
ington' on it and goes directly to the
point. 1t gets licked and stamped
upon. and men besmirch its fair fea-
lures and ofttimes give it more to
carry than the postah union allows.
But. in spite Of all this. it sticks un-
f1inchingly to the matter in hand by
virtue of the fact that it knows that it
has good backing.
Its stick-to-it-ivity is worthy of EN-.
ulation by you.-.Iudge's Library.

Legal Advertisements at Legal Rates.

Attorney General G.. T. Simpson
has lust handed down an opinion
which virtually places the enforce
ment of the liquor laws in the hands
of the sheriff of the county. This
opinion was given in response to an
inquiry from Gov Eberhart as to
what constitutes the powers, duties
and obligations of a sheriff in this
state. According to this opinion
sheriffs are held responsible for the
enforcement of the liquor laws as
well as other laws, and it will make
the office of sheriff a much more diff.
ficult office to hold. The attorney
general says:
In other words, under the laws OF
this state, as under the common law,
where the sheriff was the represen-
tative of the king, so is he the arm
of the governor in each county in the
state, whose duty it is to see that the
laws Of the state are enforced, and
for his neglect or failure he may be
removed from office by the governor,
upon proper cause being shown.
Sufficient for Removal.
Bearing in mind, then, that as a
conservator of the peace it is the
duty of the sheriffs of the state not
only to apprehend and jail those who
have committed crime, and otherwise
act as a server of processes but that
it is likewise the duty of the sheriff
to prevent the violation of the law,
whether as to the sale of Intoxicating
liquor or otherwise, is of no moment.
1t follows that for failure to either
serve process that is delivered to
him, or failure to preserve the peace
is ground in a proper proceeding be-
fore you to remove such sheriff from
Office. 1t is not enough for sheriff
to plead that no complaint has been
made to him with regard to the al
legged violation of law, and that no
warrant has been placed in his
hands for service. The duty of the
sheriff is broader than this, for when
complaint is made to him that a law
is about to be violated, or when It
is brought to his knowledge, or he
has reason to believe that the peace
of his county is about to be broken,
duty rests upon the sheriff to con-
serve the peace, and for that pur
pose ne may call to his aid as many
citizens of the county as are neces-
sary."

imagine that they own the earth and
are privileged to ride rough shod ov-

all other people. There is too much
fast and careless driving of autos
