FAMOUS WINTERS IN PARIS.
Once Every River In France Was los
and Every Mill Idle.

and Every MIL ldie.
Recalling famous winters in France.
the Paris Petit Journal says that the
fifteenth century might justly be cali
ed the cold century.
"In 140S the registrars of the parlia-
ment Of Paris reported that it was i'm
possible to issue any of its resolutions
because the ink froze in the ink bottles
of the clerks. Every three words they
had to thaw their pens. and this with
fire roaring in their room. Bvery
river in France was frozen. and not a
mill could wofS. Twelve years later,
in 1920. there was a repetition Of this
winter. Foodstuffs gave out. and poor
people died by tens Of thousands.
"In 1922 in less than three days the
wine and the vinegar froze in the Gel
lars; cocks and hens had their combs
frozen: the streets were full of peo-
pie who danced. jumped. wrestled and
ran races, anything to keep off frost
bite.
I'm 1880 it froze for more than two
and half months. and the snow fell
for forty days without stopping. All
the birds hidden in the trunks of trees
died.
'In the year of the great winter as
1903 was called. hundreds of persons
died from cold. Everything was fro
zen hard, even the bread served at the
table Of Henry ~. In 1909 all the
wheat was destroyed. and new SOW
ing had to be made in the spring. Buff
fon relates that no bread was to be
had. Even Nine. de Maintenon had
to go without 1t.
'Tn 1776 sentinels were found fro
zen to death outside Versailles. and
the king put stop to this service. In
Paris great bonfires were lit in the
streets. Bells were shivered into pieces
as they rang, clocks stopped and In the
cellars wine turned into ice. Hares
and partridges came into the towns
and hid themselves in the hooks and
corners of houses. where they were
subsequently found as stiff as a board
and quite inedible."

Points of the Crescent Moon,

Why does the moon sometimes ap-
pears with points turned upward and
at other times downward? There is
one cause only-the rotation of the
earth. IL the moon rises with points
turned upward then, when it sets. the
points must turn downward-that is.
the western horizon meets the points
in its apparent approach; they point
toward it. apparently downward, in the
western sky.-New York American.

A Good Move.

1t is with a great deal OF pleas.
ure that | learn that Prof. Dunn
has invited one of our prominent
attorneys to give a lecture to the
high school boys and girls on
civil government.
| believe, in the last analysis.
that the education of our boys
and girls has, for it's object, the
making of good and intelligent
citizens, who can be depended
upon to think clearly and act
wisely on public questions. 20
this end tits necessary that they
have a comprehensive knowledge
of our form of government and
the genius of it's institutions
But in order to get the best re-
suits it will not suffice to stop
here. In order to appreciate
our institutions it is necessary
for them to know something OF
the development of all forms OF
government from earliest history
to the present date. Civil gov
eminent as it is taught in our
schools simply outlines the form
of government. AS far as |
know we have no text books suit
able for high school students
|giving the historical develop
ment of law and government
But a great deal could be accom-
tplished. especially in our towns
.lwhere some one could be found
Ito give a few short lectures each
