The fowls should be sent to roost

Fowls should always be starved for

ORIGIN OF ENGLISH SHIRE
II Was One of the Divisions Of the
Country in Old Saxon
Days.

The English word shire is from
the old Saxon sciran. to divide. There
are some English counties which still
represent ancient Saxon kingdoms.
such as Essex, Kent. MiddleseX, Sur
rey. Sussex; others were formed by
the subdivision of Mercia, WesseX.
Northumbria, etc, as Staffordshire,
Warwickshire. Yorkshire, etc. These
shires. and indeed all the counties OF
England were ruled by the ealdorman,
or count as the Normans termed him.
and the scir-gerefa, or sheriff. The
ealdorman was originally elected by
the witan or council of the shire.
commonly called county, when the eal-
dormen were known as counts. After
wards the office became hereditary In
many cases. The sherlff was appoint
ed by. and represented the king, as the
count represented the people. The
word shire is, in combination, always
pronounced sheer, as for example.

1T is the plain. simple doll or toy

Take the case of the little girl and
her family of dolls. There are dolls
of all kinds, but the one which is loved
most by the child is the plain. painted
wooden doll with no attractions to
speak Of The other dolls may be re-
markably lifelike and pretty. but 1t is
this ugly duckling which stimulates

PROBABLY 4 THIRD MAN

The Silver State in speaking of
the preliminary examination of
EuriC and TRAINER. the Inlay
bandits, says:
That there a a third man mix
ed up in the affair now seems prob.
able. Witnesses Lommori and Walk
or who were eye witnesses of the
affair state positively that they saw
three men leave the building after
the raid. Witnesses Robinson and
Kelley. while they did not see the
affair, sworc that they heard three
men running away. Another sig.
nifcant incident is the fact
that the mar Duncan, a %hanger-on

vicinity, who was arrested by
Sheriff Lamb on the Sunday follow
ing the murder, is still held in Il &

ions, Eurie ]cxoncrated this man,
claiming that tic job was done by
TRAINER and himself. 1t seems tc
be a reasonable theory that this
third man, whoever he may have
been. secured the $1,000 which Mrs.

that Euric is shielding him in the
hope that he may come TO his rescue
by putting up money for his dc.

STARTLING PREDICTIONS

Here is food for thought that
will be interesting to the many who
study conditions and the trend of
the times.
There will be no children in the
United States under 5 years of age
in the year 1920. Babies, accord
ingly, will have disappeared from
this country as early as 2015."
This is the mathematical conclu-
sion of Professor Walter F. Wilcox
of Cornell university, announced to
the American Statistical association
Monday afternoon.
The only hope of securing babies
IN the United States after 1920,
according to Professor Wilcox's
statement, is in possible importa-
ton from France. He says that
France will continue to have babies
so years after the United States
has quit.
There is proportionately more
race suicide in the United States
than in France" said Professor
Wilcox.
An endowment for the stork was
recommended to the American So.
Geological association by Geo. Elliot
Howard. professor of sociology in
the University of Nebraska. In
his address on the Social Control
of Domestic Relations" he declared
the state should honor motherhood
by endowing mothers.
Parents who raise families" he
said. ARE entitled to payment and
security from the state, the same
as the soldier and the Judge or any
other public servant. The woman
who gives a child to the state
should be allowed an income by the
state for taking care of that child.
That would make the mother the
ruler of the home. That would
be social Justice"
