DEMOCRATIC OLD SEA DOG
According to Dewey, Admiral Farra-
gut Was by No Means a Strict
Discipiinarian.

Admiral Farragut's methods were al
ways simple. There was a saying that
his principal place for filing papers
was his coat pocket. Generally he
wrote his orders himself, perhaps with
his knee or the ships rail as a rest
Admiral Dewey in his autobiography
recalls that one day when Farragut
was writing he looked up and said;

what about the woman's throat?
Nowhere was there more prejudice
centuries ago against boards than at
the inns of court. The black books"
of the inns tell us how offenders were
fined for wearing boards, and some
times were even compulsorily shaved
by order of court. And the prejudice
against the bearded barrister still lin
gers. ViceChancellor Bacon carried
his dislike to bearded or mustached
barristers so far that he always re-

are very few leading counsel with

No Grammar for Her.

In Fort Scott school the teachers
gave orders for all pupils to buy a GER

book to the class the next day. When

laid a note on the teachers desk. She
picked it up, rather surprised. but she
was more surprised when she read the
following note: 81 do not desire that
