In primitive days books had a recog-

they were exchanged for a horse or
half a dozen sheep. but few people
know the extent to which books were
pawned In the middle ages. Oxford at
one time had twenty giant chests full
Of these valuable pledges. and the proc

served to alter things. and presently
as Smithfield market grew it set up

Definitions of News,

The city editor OF a local paper tells
US that he recently tested the intelli-
gence of a bunch Of applicants for
jobs by giving them bit of copy pa
per and requesting them to write
thereon a definition of News" Here
are some of the answers turned in:
News consists of events that are
either very usual or very unusual"
"News is what the public will read
and pay for without kicking"
News is anything the public ought
to know"
News is report of what happened,
not of what ought to happen"
News is anything a paper can print
that's new. except (aI new stuff that
might start a libel suit, 10, anything
that might lose an advertiser. (cD any
thing that might ALLEVIATE a bunch Of
subscribers"
This last epigram landed job for
its author. The city editor saw at
once that this chap had worked on a
paper before.-Cleveland Plain Dealer

Junior Howl
dealers.

Perhaps the evening of Feb. % found
your disturbed by squeals, yells and
frantic ringing of telephone bells. The
juniors were doing things under the
usually quiet roof Of Mrs. Sutherland.
The early part of the evening was
spent in finding just where few stray
juniors were. Finally, when all was
settled, the masculine accomplishment
of the junior class rendered a solo,
Lift Yer Eyes" We say rendered
because of what happened to the song.
Then came short talks from two of
members on how to attend parties and
shows the same evening without getting
matters mixed. This was very edifying
and will probably help popular juniors
to solve some future problem.
The evening passed merrily on it's way
and lunch was spread under the stove
and convenient sofa and later it was
on the faces of various joniors.
All this time passed not in needless
pleasure. An interesting lecture on
Natural Science" was delivered, to
quote from which "This olive floats,
fellowless juniors, because it has mis-
placed its weight in the brine and, being
unable to find it, cannot sink"
Lunch was followed by talented
Junior at the piano and two short clas-
steal readings by members. Finally,
after a solo, the juniors prepared to
leave before another could be inflicted.
When all was over there lived one hun
cry, unenlightened, hopeless junior,
who, we feared, had wandered in SIMS
ter, perhaps senior, ways. It was alb
sent. ~

When Almanacs Were New.

The first printed almanac. published
at Nuremberg in 1875. was thought
such a wonderful thing that it was
sold at ten golden crowns a copy
more than it's weight in gold. The first
English printed almanac was the
"Shepherd's Kalendar." translated from
the French and printed by Richard
Pynson In 1897, and the first popular
almanac of the "Old Moore" type was
the "Pronostyacyon of Mayster John
Thybault, medycyner and astronomer
Of the Enperyall Majestic Of the yeare
Of our Lorde MCCCCCXXXIJ"
Besides prophesying wares. revo-
lucions and the death of kynges," that
early almanac told you the proper day
to take physic. Monday was the day
for ailments Of the legs. Tuesday for
affections of the head etc. But what
the unfortunate sufferer was to do who
had pain on the wrong day it does
not state You must take pains at the
proper time.

Working Of industrial Insurance Law

Since the industrial insurance law
went into effect in October, 27O0 acct
dents have been reported to the Indus
trial Insurance Commission, and this
number the commission has acted upon,
1900 being adjusted and 1900 either re-
iected, waived or are now in process Of
adjustment. In the state 100, 900 work
men are listed as coming under the pro-
visions IF the law, and total of 454O
firms have been listed and assessed, and
during the past four months that the law
has been in operation have paid in $685.
O57, of which $57, 1929 has been paid out
to injured workmen. This leaves a
balance of 1910, 728 in the fund and
$62, ZIG has been invested in 5 per cent
reserves. The classes having the great
est amount of money to their credit are
the numbering and milling fund, the
coal mining fund and the street railway
operation fund, the first having $123,-
3O8 to it's credit, the second $50, 758 and
the third $26,O58. Owing to the disas-
ter at Chehalis, in which eight girls
were killed, the powder manufacturers
fund shows a deficiency. This accident
occurred soon after the law went into
effect, and the Dupont Powder Co., the
biggest company, has refused to pay its
assessment, and has begun suit to test
the constitutionality of the law and will
take the case to the United Stntes su-
preme court. The powder class, con-
sisting practically of only four plants,
this company's assessment would be
about 80 per cent.
