A Correction,

In last weeks issue there was a no.
tice of the wedding Of Mr.. r. B. Min
ton and Miss Myrtle Cole, and in the
hurry of things there was a portion of
the account left off, in this that it was
not told who Miss Myrtle married. We
hasten to state that Miss Cole was
married to a real gentleman. in the
person of r. B. Minton, a man that we
all feel proud of: one who will make
his mark in the business world and a
good living for his affable wife. We
hope that an occurrence Of this kind
will not happen Notwithstanding

I think the moon is very kind
To take such trouble just for me.
He came along with me from home
To keep me company.
He went as fast as I could run:
I wonder how he crossed the sky7
I'm sure he hasn't legs and feet
Or any wings to fly.
Yet here he Is above their roof:
Perhaps he thinks it isn't right
For me to go so far alone,
Tho mother said I might.

LUNACY INCREASE
ON IN ENGLAND

LONDON, May 2.-The report of
the Board OF Lunacy Control review
ing conditions in Gerat Britain since
the year 1853, shows a STEADY and
alarming increase fl insane persons in
all classes, but especially among
paupers.
In 1853 there were $4,000 persons
under control for lunacy; in 1899,
loo. 1000; in 1915, 100000.
As compared TO the total population,
the ratio of lunatics in 1859 was 18.5
Per 10000. In 1915 the proportion
Lad risen to 81.
We may at once reduce these com
parattve figures. says the report by
recognizing that the diagnosis of
lunacy has improved, and that there
fore more cases are recognized and
cared for than in 1859. Yet this
does not explain all the increase. 9th.
er factors must be considered. 1t is at
this point that each theorist advances
his claims, and We are asked to regard
alcohol, syphilis, Tobacco, oyer-strain,
and other similar factors as the prime
cause of the increase in insanity.
The truth is that the cause of lun-
acy is not known. The factors enum-
Grated above may play a part, but they
also play their part in the lives of men
and women who die sane. Quite re-
Gently it has been suggested that diet
may have some Importance, and at
tcntion has been called to the fact that
many persons Of insane tendency ex-
hibit strong diatetic preference-a love
of sugar and so on"

CAR SHORTAGE IS
NOW VERY SERIOUS

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 2.-The
serious car shortage throughout the
country is beginning to be felt byI
shippers and distributors of early
fruits and vegetables. In the various
conferences between the Interstate
Commerce commission, railroad Off
Gals and shippers, the latter have been
represented, for the most part, by ship
pers of non-perishable commodities.
A Southern road, confronted with an
extraordinarily heavy tonnage of per-
ishable commodities, finds at the open
Jig of the season, nearly half of its
refrigerator equipment on other lines,
ard is unable to get the cars home.
This is typical of other sections, and
there is great danger that the interests
of users of refrigerator cars may be
sacrificed to the necessities of other
shippers.
A year ago the department of agri-
culture in a bulletin for farmers and
shippers of perishable farm products
called attention to the Importance Of
prompt loading and unloading of cars,
and to the economic waste involved in
a misuse of cars. AS the departments
marketing work progresses, the i'm
pcrtance of this phase of transporta-
lion service becomes more apparent. In
response to appeals from shippers, the
department in an effort to avoid disas-
ter to the growers, has called to the
attention of the Interstate Commerce
commission the necessity for prompt
movement, release, and speedily return,
producing sections of all refrigerator
cars. Shippers and distributors are
a2ain urged to cooperate in every way
POSSIBLE toward the end of greater re-
figerator car efficiency, and are re-
minded that their cooperation, always
necessary, is more essential this year
than ever before.

OufGoor Exercises.
Norwich.

Out of door air is the purest Of air.
For this reason We should live in the
open air as much as possible.
Gypsies are usually strong and
healthy, although they are exposed to
all sorts of weather
Such games as golf, tennis, football
and baseball are excellent for young
people, because they not only give ex-
ercise, but outdoor exercise which
means that the player gets long
breaths of good air.
Bicycling is fine exercise if the rider
sits straight, rides slowly, and stops
before he is too tired; skating and
rowing are also good exercises.
Every boy and girl who lives near
the ocean, a lake. river, or pond
should learn to swim.
Walking is a good exercise. too, be-
cause it allows one to take fresh air
into the lungs.
Children should run and jump as
well as walk.
When we want the fire in the stove
to burn faster we open the draft to
give it more air. In this way is the
body when we walk fast or run.

The Birds Home.
Colchester.

Each mother bird has her own way
of making the nest, but there is one
thing almost all of them try to do, and
that is to hide it. They cannot put
their little homes out in plain sight, as
We do our houses, because so many
creatures want to rob them-squirrels
snakes, rats, cats and many others like
to eat eggs and young birds.
Most birds try, first of all, to find
good hiding places.
Some tiny Warblers so to the tops
Of the tallest trees and hide their nest
among the leaves.
Orioles hang their swinging cradle
at the end OF a branch where cats
snakes and naughty boys cannot come
Song sparrOWs tuck their little home
in a tuft of weeds on the ground, anC
bobolinks hide in the deep grass.
After a place is found they hunt
around ana gather material to builC
their nome with. They use grass
twigs, fine strips of bark, strings
norsehair, wool and many other things
Robins and swallows make then
nests of mud. AS they go on building
the mother bird gets inside and turns
around and around to make it fit hel
form.
Some birds nests are only platforms
where it would seem as though the
eggs would roll off, and others are
deep burrows or holes in the ground
where no one can get in. Some are
dainty baskets hung between two
twigs and others are cups of felt witt
ichens outside.
as there are varieties Of birds to make
nests.

Greene and CORVALLIS.

When General Gates went north in
disgrace Greene was put in command
of the southern armies.
General GFeene's men had hardly
any food, clothing or money. They
were very brave.
Greene sent General Morgan against
General Tarleton who was on the Brit
ish side. Greene was on the Ameri-
can side. They met at COwpens. Nor
gan had about nine hundred men,
TarIetonA about one thousand, one hun
der. The British had about two hun
dred and thirty men killed and wound
ed and six hundred taken prisoners.
Morgan joined Greene. CORVALLIS
chased them across the CaroIinas.
They got into Virginia just ahead of
CORVALLIS. He didn't dare to chase
them further because he knew that
Greene would receive more men.
Green. received more men and re-
turned and fought his enemy at Gull
ford court house. y. c. Greene was
defeated, but withdrew in good order.
He crippled CORVALLIS.
The British army was tired and al
most starved CORVALLIS men were
not able to go to Charlestown where
his supplies were kept, so he decided
to go to Wilmington, where he could
write and talk with the English fleet.
The French fleet came over with
5000 fresh troops in command of
Rochambeau. @
Washington went to Lafayette with
his men. CORVALLIS was surrounded.
He had only one way to escape, that
treat. A heavy storm stopped him.
After three weeks he surrendered.
