FLOCK OF CROWS ON A JAG
Farmer soaks Corn In Whisky and
Finds Eight Birds Acting Much
Like Men.

William Oles of Colebrook. has a
large field of corn which has been
ravaged for months by crows. Mr.
oles did not like that sort of thing
very much. Searching his brain for
a plan to end the unwelcome atten-
tons of the crows. he came upon this
idea: He would soak some of the corn
in whisky and place it in the corn
patch.
He did that the other night. The
next morning he was awakened by a
fearful jabbering in the cornfield He
rushed out to investigate. He found
eight large crows staggering around
the field and Stimulating the human
voice as closely as nature would per-
nit. He says he heard one of the
crows singing.
When they saw Mr.. Oles they tried
to fly, but it was impossible They
couldn't even walk straight; In fact.
they fell every few seconds.
Mr.. Oles bundled them into couple
of parrot cages When they sobered
up he lectured them severely Then
he took them into the field, shot them.
and left their bodies as a warning 10
other crows.-Winsted Correspondent

Sparinq the Rod,

The bishop Of Carlisle, Esq, is no
believer in ''sparing the rod" and
spelling the child" In - recent adj
dress he deplored the soft notions
now being preached by people calling
themselves humanitarians." 1T is
said to be degrading to fog a boy"
said the bishop. Well. am truly
thankful that was often degraded in
that sense in my boyhood If | had
not been so degraded then | should
be more degraded now. We need to
eliminate these enervating, foolish,
soft ana therefore cruel notions from
our educational system. This is a
matter not only for teachers. but for
parents"

Nicknames In History.

The history Of nicknames would be

cave man, thus dubbed his neighbor
None have escaped, from the highest

statesmen, saints and sinners, poets,
