CRAZE FOR BADGES
PREVAILS IN LONDON
Almost Every Relief Society and
Other Organization Has Its In
dividual INSIGNIA.

London. Aug 21-One of the develop
ments of the war craze in England is the
amazing number and variety of badges.
buttons and medallions to be seen as
one walks through the streets.
stranger arriving in London for the
first time would imagine that nearly
every second man and woman had been
decorated for some act of valor on the
field Of action. The truth is that every
organization. however trivial and unim-
portant. as soon as 1t is formed. at once
starts a distinctive badge and its men,
bers parade the streets proudly crying
aloud. as it were. Please note I am a
member OF a new brigade"
Thus we have members of the Belgian
Relief Committee wearing one kind of
badge. interpreters who are out to aid
distressed BelSians and Flemish refu-
gees ignorant Of the language: another,
any number Of strange and fantastic de-
vices. such as hares fleeing from German
"frightfulness: stays with antlers
proudly spread to depict God knows
what and a collection of military med
ais and insignia to show the fitness or
unfitness Of men who may be gathered
into the net of the ubiquitous enlistment
sergeant.
There is a great deal that is confusing
and unbusinesslike in this widespread
mania for emblems of some form of
service. real and ina ginary. AS an
American now in London put it to the
writer Guess you are OVERRIDING your
patriotism over here just a little. If you
had two badges. one for men who are
fit to enlist and the other for men who
are not, recognized by government, you
could throw the rest into the rubbish
heap and nobody would be the loser

correctly all the questions asked by
our new French teacher who told u.

he remarks, were "onepence per dozen
ale two quarts for twopence." After
short stay in the Ortness islands
Barlow sailed for Halifax. He stayed
there for a week. thinking of perma
nent settlement. But that place
would not do" he said. for the land
was upon a rock: so there was no
work for husbandman."
Then. supposedly by foot. Barlow
made his way to Cumberland. Again.
like a man of today. he comments on
the cost of living-this time on the
high cost. At Cumberland he says he
found everything very dear. and was
glad to lie among the hay"
This journey occurred. it is thought.
in 1774. From Cumberland Jonathan
made his way to westcock. in Sack
willie township. New Brunswick.
Canada. where he hired to Sam
Rogers" as a husbandman for ''one
pound fifteen shillings a month"
Barlow liked Westcock. In his own
words he found the mosquitoes very
troublesome. but the land was very
good" So he set about planning for
permanent settlement. He bought a
hundred and fifty acres of farm land
and began to clear and work it
One of the attractions of Westcock
to Barlow was his employers sister,
who bore the uncompromising name of
Plain Rogers. She had herself lived
in Westcock only short time, and
she and the young Englishman soon
became engaged to be married. Their
marriage took place on September %.
1875.

Nothing definite is known about
Jonathan's English ancestry nor his

of one of his descendants is an old

than's own hand, an account of his
journey to the new world.

is also a tradition. that Jonathan had
Anne. for whom he named two Of his
daughters. There is still another ira
dition-although a very misty one
that there was another brother who
came to America.
1t is said that Jonathan Barlow left
England with $500 as his part Of his
fathers fortune: but his own account
of his journey. preserved in the copy

exaggerated. He surely considered

1t was the intention of the Frohman

Hanover still bears a horse. the white

on his shield when he invaded Britain.
To T. P. D., who asks whether there
is any relationship between the Dow
family and the Doude family:
There is one tradition which says
that the progenitor of the Doude
family in America was a brother to
the progenitor Of the Dow family here.
Certain it is that the spelling of the
name Dow is so varied that it is i'm
possible to distinguish any branch of
the family according to the way its
members originally spelled the name.
Some of the old spellings are Dow.
Douw. Dove, Bowed. Dowde, Doude,
Dowd. Doud, and even Dodd. So 1t is
quite possible that some who bear
the name Dow today were originally
of the same family as some who spell
the name Dodd today. And. too. the
Dowds and the Bows may originally
have sprung from the same family.
The photography of this family name
illustrates. as does that of few fami-
lies, the strange whims and fancies
the New England colonists took about
the suitable spelling of their names.
The arms of the family are de-
scribed: Sable Jesse dancette ermine
between three doves argent.
The name Dow appears to be from
dove, the bird. and most of the arms
borne by the various members of the
family show the dove prominently dis
played.

Ralph B. Strassburger Is d.
rector of National Defense
Organization.
ANNAPOLIS GRADUATE
Believes College Football Players and
Other Athletes Should Offer
Their Services.
ANNAPOLIS GRADUATE

Ralph Beaver Strassburger. of New
York and Pennsylvania, director of
the Navy League. and one of the most
prominent of the younger men of this
country in the national defense move
ment, who is an Annapolis graduate
and formerly served on the Mayfower
and at the White House under Pres.-
dent Roosevelt, has volunteered his
services in the new naval reserve
and will take his examinations before
the board in charge of that branch
of the service at an early date.
Mr.. Strassburger has also made the
suggestion that college football -lay-
and other athletes enroll them
selves in the national defense move
ment and offer their services to the
nation.
This suggestion comes with fitness
from Mr.. Strassburger. who was
football star at Annapolis during his
student days there and won the honor
of being pronounced the All-American
halfback in 1903. If the thousands of
athletes in the country get up a spe-
Cial reserve corps it will proba bly,
equal in fame the famous Rough Rider
regiment of the Spanish-American war
and save American athletics from the
suspicion that surrounded the non-en-
listment of athletes in Great Britain
and other countries at the outbreak of
the war
In these days of international strife
and peril l believe that every pat
riotic American ought to make haste
to place any talents he may possess
at the service of his country. said

rectory in the Navy League. ! am

share If every officer and man who
ever served under Uncle Sam in the
army or navy would register at once
in the Army and Navy Reserve Corps
much would be done to overcome our
lack of trained men which forms SUCH
tremendous part of our national
preparedness.
When Secretary Daniels instituted
inquiries as to the addresses of for
mer naval officers and men in this
country, Mr.. Stra ssburger was one of
the first TO come forward for enroll
ment. and upon receiving Information
that plans had been completed for the
formation of the reserve, he at once
wrote requesting that he be given eN-
animation as soon as possible
Mr.. Strassburger entered Annapolis
in 1901. where he won fame as
football player. In 1905 and 1906 he
was attached to the Presidents yacht
Mayfiower, and in 1909 he particularly
distinguished himself when a boiler
tube blew out on the t-Ial trip ot the
North Dakota. riskirg his life to shut
