SOME IRISH C0GNoMENS.

Meanings Attached AS the Nest coT-
 mon ef che 8urnAmeo.
 The fact Is not generally known that Ireland was the Hrst country in mod ern Europe to enfOEps the adoption of suruames by law. The act prescribing their general use was passed more than a hundred yesrs bafore the AnSlo-Nor- man invasion, whereas EurnRmes did not come into general uss in England until the days of Queen Elizabeth nor in Wales hn late in the. seventeenth century.
 There are some interesting meanings attaching to the most common Of Irish names, says the London Ttt- Bits. Here are a few with ths curious changes of spelling that have come about since the names first originated:
 Murphy came from o'Murphy, Nor. phey and Morphew, meaning "superi. or" Kelly came from 0KeIy, Kiely. Keeley. meaning flor war" o'ConnOI came from Connors, Conerty, meaning helper" and Dougherty from O'Do. herty, DOherty, Daushaaay, meaning destroyer" It is noticeable that all Irish names st the arst stage in their history had 70 |" besere them, the first change consisting of dropping that "O." It will not be necessary there fore to repeat tbs name with the 70 ~ before l.
 Sullivan was originally BilhfRnt and SuIlIrant. meaning quick sighted" O'Donneu and McDonnsH and all com binations of that name were Donald Daniel Dona, meaning dark chief; Moloney was O'AuIlewney. MeIoney Mullany. meaning thoughtful" Nc Cormack was O'Cormack; McCormsc Mccormick, meaning @BOn of the crown" Flynn vas Fiann, meaning 'red;" FlsnnigaD was Flpnigen, mean ing "druid;" Boyle was BOylan. Bo land, BOlAn. Boylln, meaning benign: O'Brian WAS Bryan, Bryant BrtReS Bryon, meaning author" Brady was McBrady, meaning ship captain" and MaCauleS was O'Cawlew. McGawly. McAuly. McAuli6. Cawley, meaning echo" or literally "son Of the rock"

LAYING HEN WILL PROVE
PROFITABLE THIS WINTEE e

A common opinion has gone forth
increased prices of grains and various
poultry feeds they should cut down
the number of birds to minimum. or
perhaps dispose of the entire flock.
At the present writing fresh eggs
are bringing 40 cents a dozen in Fort
COllins-a high-water mark in years
past for mid-winter egg prices. On
October first report from nearly
200 cold storage firms showed a de-
crease of more than 90 percent in the
number of cases of eggs which they
held in storage, as compared with
the same time a year ago. Although
quite early in the season, the cold
storage supply is being drawn upon
heavily to meet the demand Pre-
dictions now indicate that a top notch
in egg price will be experienced this
winter
Facing these conditions. wheat and
other feeds cannot be considered at a
prohibtive price, and the producer
should not take steps that will tend
to minimize winter egg production
Poultrymen will undoubtedly pro
fit by holding over all but the poor
est of last years parent stock, and to
force them with the early hatchei
pullets into winter laying The old
saying THE laying hen is the paying

THREEFACULTY MEN
 LEAVE H. s. COUNCIL
Moody, Davis and Fay Resign from Athletic Managing Body

Another chapter was added aoday to the wrangle between the New Brit ain High school Athletic council and Principal Louis P. Slade, who is be- the mouthpiece of Superintendent of Schools Stanley H. Holmes, when Professors James c. Moody, Marshall F. Davis and William E. Fay sent in their resignations as members of the council. Their resignations were sent to Principal Slade, although MT Davis was secretary of the council and the principal a member ex-of1icio.
 Professor Moody has served On the athletic council for a number of years and has always taken an active inter- est in the athletics of the school. Pro- lessor Davis has also taken a live in- terest in school athletics of several years and during one year he assisted in coaching the team.
 Alumni to Stand.
 The graduate members of the coun- cil, Howard w. Timbrell, John H. Curtin and William s. Judd stated to- day that they have no intention of re-
 
 no necessity of it. All have served on the council for a number of years and think their past records will bear the most careful scrutiny in case there is any charge of mismanagement. MT. Judd states that before he resigns and turns over what funds he holds as treasurer he will have to be shown very plainly just to whom the money will go.
 Holmes Is Man Blamed.
 The preceding facts in this wrangle are now well known. Principal Slade has demanded that the council, here tofore having had a free rein and man. aged the school athletics most suc- cessfully, discharge Dr. Frank Zwick as football coach because he was not satisfactory to him. In his letter de- manding the coach's resignation he gave the excuse that it was on account of publicity given an informal meet ing of the council and in view of this he did not think it in keeping with good discipline to retain the coach. At the informal meeting in question, how ever, Principal Slade admitted that in
New Britain herald., 1916-07-06

opposing Dr. Zwick's appointment he was merely voicing the sediments of Superintendent Holmes.
 Past Record Good.
 If it is correct that the super1nten- dent of schools is trying to elbow his way into the management of the High schools athletic affairs it will be the first time in the schools history that any superintendent has taken such a step. It is meeting with harsh criticism by members of the school graduate body, the student body and the interested public.
