One vast Improvement that has
come to the county clerks office in
Mr.. Mahr's time, mainly due to his
efforts, is the modern system of in
dexing the county records. Patent
indexing and systemization of the
work has resulted in the cutting down
of the time needed for judgment
searches, or searches of any sort, for
that matter, from half an hour to
three to five minutes, and very often
considerably less time.
In 1888 there was no general index
of the county books and persons de-
string to search for liens against
property were forced to go through
the attachment, mechanic liens, lis
pendens, District Court judgments,
Common Pleas judgments, bonds and
Circuit Court judgments, as well as in
some instances other books, in order
to make a proper search.
Under the system since established
by Mr. Mahr. judgments of any and
all sorts are indexed in general in
dex, with reference to particular
book and page where entry in detail
is made. All a searcher has to do is
to take the general index books, of
which there is one for each letter OF
the alphabet look up the name of
the party involved and every trans
action in which the party has figured
for years and years back is before
him.
The records of the county date from
1719 to the present time and there is
MANY an interesting old document to
be found among the musty, ink-faded
documents that are carefully filed
away in steel filing cases in the doou-
ment vault.
Mr.. Mahr is a regular mine of :nfor-
nation in regard to details of the liti-
CATION in this county during the past
quarter century, and is freq emily
called on by lawyers and others to
aid them in fixing dates and other
matters of years agone that are ne
cessary to them in the preparation of
suits.

StammerIna Children.

Stammering is often caused by try.
ing to force left-handed children to
use the right hand. according to P. B.
Ballard, London county council inspec.
tor OF schools. He also asserts that to
be lefthanded was to be not merely
awkward. but prone to wickedness. He
presented many statistics.
Out Of one group of 545 left-handed
children one per cent. Of pure left
handlers stammered. against 4.3 per
cent. Of 3s9 being taught to use the
light hand. In another group Of 207
the figures were AZ per cent and 21.s
per cent. respectively.
Six out Of ten left-handed children
who had been taught to use the right
hand were practically cured Of STAN
mering after being allowed to use the
left hand exclusively for lS months.
There were twice as many left-handed
boys ~ left-handed girls. and STAN
mering was twice - prevalent among
boys.
