After the Revolutionary war addition
al stripes as well as additional stars
were added for each new state admitted
to the Union. The flag used in the
war of 1912 had fifteen stripes and an
equal number of stars. This was the
flag that inspired Francis Scott Key
to write s'The Star Spangled Banner.
Congress realized that the addition of
stripes for new states would make the
flag too clumsy, and adopted the pres
ent rule-thirteen stripes, alternately
red and whi e, repr .sentir G the original
states, and in the blue VI ite tar fCr
| ach state in the Union.

MISUNDERSTANDING Of Agricul
ture Wilson has announced plans fol
farm management study and work II
the north, for which both houses o.
congress have made proviAion in the
agricultural appropriation bill. This
plan, on which the secretary and DR.
P. T. Galloway, chief Of the bureau o
plant industry, have been working fol
several months, corresponds to the co
operative demonstration work in the
south.
The federal government, through its
agents, who will act in cooperation
with state and local inspectors, pro
poses to make a comprehensive study
of the farms of the country with {
view especially of carrying to the
farmer information which will show
him why a certain branch of his in
dustry is Improbable and how he car
make it pay or, If not, why he should
drop that branch.
1--WE will carry the agriculture
school to the farmer,"- said Secretary
Wilson. Ordinarily, only one man IL
a large number can go to school tt
study farming. We must take thu

Dollars His Wife Had Saved
for Rainy Day.

New York.-Magistrate Appleton in
the Tombs court declared that he had
discovered "the meanest man" in
James Bowling of IS Rose street, who
pleaded guilty to stealing six dollars
his wife had saved for a rainy day.
He was remanded to the Tombs to
await trial in special sessions.
Bowling was left in the house to
mind his three children while his wife,
who is very weak, went out to earn
rs cents cleaning an Office. She had
no sooner gone than Bowling took the
money and abused his children. When
his wife returned she learned of the
theft of the money and at once went
out and had Bowling arrested.
She informed Magistrate Appleton
that her husband had refused to work,
and said that she would have been
willing to do it all if he would only
stop getting drunk, but Row she could
not think of doing SO. as, instead of
watching the children. he beat them.
After hearing all the facts, Magis-
trate Appleton denounced Bowling rs
"the meanest men alive" and "a dis.
grace to manhood" and remanded him
to the Tombs for trial.

Bear With a Thirst.

From the Maine Woods.
There are probably a number OF men
in Maine who remember the tame bear
that used to live in Redingtons in DAYS
when numbering was booming in that Sec
ton. This bear was 200-pounder kind
and docile, but the possessor of one bad
habit That was his penchant for in
toxicating liquor.
Now and then lumbermen would get
the bear drunk, which was an exceed
ingly easy thing to do. Bruin preferred
rum, but would drink whisky IL nothing
better was at hand. In the morning
after a nights debauch he frequently
had a typical 'morning-after thirst"
which he learned to quench by turning a
faucet outside the main camp. when he
would lap up the water very eagerly that
ran from the tap.
No efforts were made at reformation.
although 1T Is not stated that the animal
filled drunkard's grave. As a matter
of fact he lived at the camps for a num-
Der of years without harming a person.
although some of the men seemed to an
tagonize him at. times.

A REAL JOB.
Being an Usher in a Theater No
Sinecure.

The leading feature of our next Sun
day Magazine is an exceedingly entertain
ing special article by George Jean Nathan
on the all-absorbing topic of the theater
usher. starting out with an enumeration
of his fourteen imperative duties. and
containing delightful explanation of
himself by head usher in one of the
principal New York playhouses 1t is
astonishing what an omniscient creature
the usher must be if he keeps his job.
The average usher-n the theaters of
New York, at least" says Mr.. Nathan,
rs combination Of bookkeeper, doctor.
detective. politician. diplomat. actor. elo-
cutionist. gentleman. peddler. bouncer
and guide. If he is not all of these things,
he must be part of them. or he will find
himself bereft of his job. And the head
usher must be all the things cited, and
must be a beau into tie bargain He
must wear evening clothes with all the
grace of John Drew. and his manners
must be as suave and polished as those
of Chesterfield. In other words, he
must be just like a good butler The
article bears the cryptic title, '.S-lOl
