"Battleship Girl" Receives
Ovation as She Reviews
$500 Babies.
MINIATURE "AMERlCA"
FLOATS DOWN AVENUE
Antics of Juvenile Chapllns
Amuse Big Crowds-Committee
Contributes 81 Dimes.

The people o. Harlem got their first
glimpse Of Marjorie Sterrett, "the
battleship girl" yesterday. when she
led their carnival baby parade. From
the starting point 20 the grand stand,
where she reviewed the $500 youngsters
and congratulated the winners, she was
cheered TO the echo.
1t was Marjorie's first visit 20 Har-
lem, and she will never forget It, she
says. The school children broke
through the police lines several times
20 greet her Grown-ups waved their
hands. and handkerchiefs at her and
shouted to her TO keep UP the good
work
Marjorie left the headquarters OF the
Harlem Board Of Commerce, No. 29O
Lenox Avenue, in an automobile turned
over to her by Francis Wright Clinton
one of her admirers, who also pre-
sented her with a large box Of choco-
lates. At 125th Street and Morning
side Avenue. the founder Of the battle
ship fund gave the signal for the
parade to start.
Leading the youngsters, MsrJorle's
automobile then went east 70 tlfth
Avenue and 125th Street, where the
East Side delegation, which started AZ
10th Street and Third Avenue, was
waiting for her. The parade pro-
ceedcd south on Fifth Avenue to 124th
Street, west to Mount Morris Park
West, and then south to the reviewing
stand at 122d Street.
Marjorie Receives Ovation.
When Marjorie reached the stand she
received an ovation. She was escorted
20 her place of honor by William Lee.
superintendent of the recreation CEN
tres. who told her that he was heartily
in favor of her movement for prepared
ness. Mr.. Lee was one of Mayor
Mitchel's committee who went West "
plead for a bigger army and navy.
After reviewing the parade Marjorie
was escorted along the line of children
10 look over their floats. The first TO
catch her eye was a miniature battle
ship named America" 1t was equipped
with wireless and had for its COM
mander two-year-old Clara Wickham, of
501 West 1880 Street. Twelve guns
protruded from the sides of the ship.
What enchanted Marjorie the most,
however. was a ssilboat covered with
pink roses. AT her suggestion this
float received first prize.
Marjorie laughed long and heartily
over the contest of amateur Charlie
Chsplins,' in which forty youngsters
ranging from seven to eleven. charac-
terized the we'll known film comedian.
On leaving for her home Marjorie
was presented with ffty-four dimes by

EXPRESS COMPANY SUED
FOR HIS WIFE'S DEATH

Jackson, KY, Jan. S.-Jno. Young,
farmer of this county, filed to-
day a suit in the Breathitt Circuit
Court against the Adams Express
Company for 100000.
Young alleges that on November
80, with his wife ill, a physician
prescribed certain medicine that
must be administered before serious
conditions set up. He AYERS that he
ordered the drugs by wire from Win
chester; that the Express Company
was told of the importance of a
prompt delivery of the package, but
that it carried it on up the railroad
and did not deliver it for about a
week. His wife, he alleges. was then
beyond recovery and died the fol-
lowing day. He charges the express
Company with negligence.

UNDERGRADUATES AS
FOUND BY co.. STANLEY

Gov. Stanley Unexpectedly paid a
visit to one of the departments of
government about 10 O'Clock the
other morning and found no one
there but a lone stenographer. The
head of the department, his first and
second assistants and all of the
clerks were absent. Inquiry ELECTED
the information that they had all
been there that morning, but had
left for the day.
The Governor suggested, so 1t is
said, that there might be a number
of useless desks in that department.
That simple little suggestion has
worked like magic. Since then
there have been no vacant desks and
the busiest department in the capt.
tol building now Ia the one which
was being run by the lone stenos-
rapher." They We're not prepared
for the Governors visit. 1t goes
without saying they will be next
time.--fOwensboro inquirer.

EASTER LATE THIS YEAR
THE SAME DATE AS 1905

Easter comes later this year than
1t has since 1905. April 23 is the
date of the end of Lent. Easter
Sunday was the same date in 1905.
Easter will not come as late as April
90 again until 1943. when it will be
two days later-April 25. In 1885
Easter Sunday fell on April 25, the
latest date for Easter from 1901 un-
til 1000. In the year 1000 Easter
Sunday will be on April 23. With
the exception OF 1943 there will be
no Easter Sunday as late as April
23 until 1000.
Coming on April 23, Easter Sun
day will be nineteen days later than
last year. Next year II will be fif-
teen days earlier. In the retail bust
ness world Easter furnishes the
greatest spring stimulus. Spring
will almost be over by the time
Easter arrives and this great relig-
jous holiday will almost mark the
beginning of early summer this year
because OF its lateness.

BEN JOHNSON QUOTES
PASSAGE ON TAX MATTER

A day or two ago several Ken
tuckians casually thrown together
in the House Office building werc
discussing Kentucky politics as well
as what the Kentucky Legislature
would do at its approaching session
OF course, the proposed new tax law
for Kentucky came up, with Other
things, for its share of the talk.
at seems that an aggressive and
energetic movement is on foot in
Kentucky to impose a higher rate OF
taxation on lands, livestock and al
tangible personal property than it is
proposed to put upon intangible per
sonal property, such as stocks
bonds, promissory notes and cred
it's" explained one representative.
After several different and con-
flicting opinions had been expressed
as to the wisdom of taxing farm
land at a higher rate than stocks,
bonds and moneys, all those present
turned to Representative Ben John
son, who, up to that time, had taken
no part in the discussion. Mr.. John
son seemed thoughtful for mo-
ment. Then said:
1.-THE very first verse of the very
first chapter of Benjamin's Epistles
to the Solons says: Verify! verify!
say unto you, woe he unto him
that taketh a full 1.-THE of all the
herds and fields of Reuben and ex-
acteth less than 1.-THE of the riches
of Dives"
The alleged Biblical quotation
caused merry round of laughter
and at the same time ended the dis
cussion of the question.-GM. M.
