United States public health service
issued a bulletin Thursday in which it
says:
Perhaps the easiest way to remem-
Der your age is to form some little
Jingle or rhyme on your birth year.
For instance:
I'm eighteen hundred and ninety
seven.
Little Johnnie came from heaven
SIN eighteen hundred and eighty-twO,
Baby Susie began to boo"
It is q common occurrence. accord
ing to the public health reports to
find children who cannot tell how old
they are. The public health service
also suggests:
Never mind what the rhyme is.
Just so you remember it, and if. after
reaching the age of 40 you want to
prove you are onyly %, why simply
change the rhyme and perhaps per-
sons will believe the rhyme IL they
won't believe you-'

a player holds to organized baseball.

court asked to determine whether the
agreements and their Interpretation

a free contract. In an affidavit accom-
panying the petition Joseph Tinker,
manager of the Chicago Federals, re-
lated that he had been sold three times

FOR ONLY A SKUNK.
Boy Who Ran Away Played Perfectly
Legitimate Prank.

Following the disappearance OF
Chester Leroy Judd, the 13-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Chester Judd Of
the Lyman district, north of the city.
a four-day search made by county
and city officials and parents of the
boy, through north Shawnee and adj
jacent counties, has failed to develop
in any reliable trace of the boy.
The boy ran away from school be-
cause he feared that he would be
punished for an offense he had COM
mitted. According to teachers of the
school the boy placed a skunk hide
in the pockets of another boy. He was
told to go home and change his
clothes and it was for that offense
that he feared punishment.
