THE CHICKS MoTHER.-Editor:
Knowing you to be so kind at set
ting peoples troubles, l would like
you to inform me who is the mother
of a chicken, the hen that lays the
egg or the hen that matches it?
Please do not consider this a joke.
K. E.
The answer is easy, despite the
fact that this question has long been
supposed to stump everybody.
The mother of the chicken is the
hen that mothers it.
Look up mother in Webster's
Unabridged and you'll find that it
means, among other things, these
two:
Having the relation or taking the
place of a maternal parent"
"That which has borne anything;
a source or protector"
The maternal parent" is undoubt-
eddy Hen A, in whose unlaid egg was
the essential germ of life, without
which there could be no Matching.
But after the laying of the egg, along
comes Hen B, who sets and matches.
Immediately, say, appears, Hen c,
who takes the chick, broods it,
scratches up juicy worms for it,
takes the place of maternal and 9TH
er parents, and, hence, is the mother
Observe, also, that under the second
definition we have quoted above
from good old Noah Webster, it is
even possible for your neighbours
rooster to drive off Hens A, B and c
and by becoming the protector" of

the chick, become it's mother, which
puts it within the ability of roost-
er to become both mother and father
of a chicken.
If "K. E." has any objection to
these conclusions, his quarrel is
clearly not with us, but with Mr..
Noah Webster, an authority of long
and widely respected standing.

And taste on this greet day.

To happy childhood days

And wished twelve would come on?

Carnahan-Granberry
Wedding at Memphis.

A wedding of unusual interest ow-
ing to the youthfulness of the bride
and groom, who are both in their
teens" was very quietly solemnized
yesterday morning at $3.50 o'clock
when the Rev. Ben Cox, pastor of the
Central Baptist church, officiated at
the marriage of Marguerite Gram
berry, Galloway to Mr.. Clarence Hol-
man Carnahan of Pine Bluff.
For the ceremony the bride was
gowned in handsome tailored suit of
olive green broadcloth with trimmings
of seal, with which she wore a Ma
poleon hat of velvet trimmed with
a green bird, with which she wore a
corsage boquet Of pink roses and Ill
les of the valley.
Mr.. and Mrs. Carnahan spent yes
terday as the guests of the brides
uncle and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs. H. w.

whom she made her home They will

Oldest Weather Reports.

Tho oldest weather diary known to
be in existence was kept by lincoln
shire G2ng) raEson, William Merle,
Gig On $50 years ago. From 1887 to
1914 he ~777-7ate il up, often day by day,
in Latin, and his manuscript, being on
velluEh, was somehow preserved and is
no. liz the BodieiS,n. Merle did not
trouble himself with the popular lore
about "slyey Influences but stuck to
an accurate record of fact in the spirit
at least Of The modern meteorGlogists.
And from his jottings it seems that he
had pretty much the same kind OF
weather to deal with as folks in his
parish Of Friiby experience now. Con-
trary to theory, the changes of six CEN
tslries have not reduced the number of
wet days in the year.

Parents Largely to Blame.

a normal child provides his own
a1nusements unless he is spoiled by in
diligence. Many are the complaints
that children-modern chlGreil-are
hard to please, that more ard more
are they coming to depend upon an
expenditure of money. When children
repudiate the fascinating paper dolls
provided By the newspapers dolls and
Wardrobas that were not known in our
days, something is wrong with them.
When they want no gifts but wrist
watches and toys run by electricity
they are to be pitied for they have
reached the verge Of boredom. Where

Talk Less. Listen More.

While we are against the eternal
talker and resent being placed in the
roster of patient listeners, we are in
no position to ignore the circum-
stance that the Lord gave man two
ears to listen with and only one
tongue to talk with. Which means
he intended people to listen twice as
much as they talk. Our kick is we
have to listen 40 times as much as
talk, and we want to talk.--Houston
