JULIUS CEASAR
 THE GUILTY ONE
(Hartford Courant.)


 Blame it to Julius Caesar; it's his fault that unmarried men, romping i about in free bachelorhood, will have to adopt all sorts of wild schemes this year to prevent themselves getting pulled into the net of natrimony. Just | because of him will men flock to wild, l isolated regions, where there is no danger from would-be-married spin sters, or eat onions regularly, neglect | to shave during the entire year and l refuse to go to dances; and just be- cause of him, will men who neglected t. take these precautions be dragged to the altar amid the weeping of all their married friends and the drown 1 ing of much sorrow to the tinkling tune of cracked ice You see, Julius | invented the leap year, practically as we have it now.
 1 An old Latin manuscript, discovered 1 i2 the attic of an Italian restaurant tells how it was done. After weary r ours with dictionaries the precious scroll has been translated. For the l benefit of those who would know why they are pursued this year, it is giv- en below:
 | Caesar, having been subjected to much talk and much fault-finding fron1 his wife and seeking about him enc day for means of revenge by destroying the peace of those Romans who were still unmarried, came by chance upon the astronomer Sosfgenes whom he found at the Circus in a | iovial mood, entirely surrounded by | empty bottles which had contained FieI. Thereupon, Caesar, feeling also the need of stimulant, he having ] just come from his house followed by many dishes from the unerrfng hand Eof his wife and by imprecations be- ca use of his refusal to buy her a hat | which she had seen that morning in 6, store window, ordered for himself 1 and for Sosigenes ten dozen eases of l the best champagne. Hiatus in mss) | Between them they so arranged the year that, in every fourth year, there was one extra day and this day they placed in February. Caesar, being much pleased. called a taxi and toook Sesigenes to his home, Sosige- nes having been imagining that it I was New Years Eve, and having look ed upon the wine. Then, Caesar, taking his sandals from his feet and finding the key hole to his own door only after much difficulty, crept up the stairs And the next day there was rejoicing among all the Roman rnaidenS.'.
 At this point the precious manu- script had been torn and the inter esting narrative cut short There is enough to show, however, that Julius Caesar is responsible for the wild hunted looks which men are wearing these days Strangely enough history bears out the facts g1ven-at least, some of the facts.
 The Julian Calendar, evolved by Ju- Illus Caesar with the aid of Sosigenes, in the year 46 B. C., is the basis for cur present calendar, minor changes only having been made in it. The comml ! year is not the same as the solar year-that is what caused all the trouble. If it weren't for that fact, a good many spinsters would re- main single this year and good many men would not cross the street when

SONG IN MEMORY
 OF JACOB RHS| Thousands of People Sing In The New Year With An

CHsxeiusive Service THE SURVEY Press Bureau.)

Two years ago ten thousand people sstood in the snow on Madison Square in the heart of New York city, and sang in the New Year under the lead ership of Jacob A. Riis Last year they sang in memory of MT. Rits, and this fyear they did it again. but with a new Selement.
 Tn addition to the ehoristers, the promoters of civic song fests and other *sober folk, who, for all their enthusi- kasm are likely to get ehilblains, this Eyear the promoters of the singing Brought in the youngsters who are sthe~ thief noise-makers in the Broad ksvS-- fcharivari a short block away. sA,~ ound the platform were boys from ss.-eiaI settlement wearing badges Jacob Riis' Boys. Troops of Boy fScouts were in evidence and roped-of sspaces were provided for college sgroups-
 College Songs First.
 At III o'clock the singing began with college songs, including the song of every college that had men pres ent. At 11:30 there were hymns, end ing with Lord God of Time writ ten by Jean Dwight Franklin and dedicated to MT. Riis with taps at 12 and then "Amerfca" as the big red eye of the Metropolitan tower clock Fwinked in the new year.
 Mrs. Franklin who was in charge, organized a committee Of men in many diverse walks of life who were gfriends of MT. Riis, with Theodore x2ooseve1t as chairman.
 When MT. Riis started the plan in 19f2 there was no community cele- bratfon of any kind m New York city except the great throngs of tin-horn- blowing, confetti-throwing people on Broadway. Sometimes the fun got pretty rough before midnight. In his announcement Mir. RiiS said:
 Flew York's manner of welcoming the New Year has came to be a kind of rough ousing' that found it's ex- pression 11st year in the slogan we heard in the streets: ITO hell with the old year, hooray for the new one.' We believe that our people are tired of this and will be glad to join in bet ter and saner one more worthy of ifne1r t4ty.

 One Big Celebration.
 The people did come together with right good will, but after the first year 1t was found much better to have one big celebration in Madison Square than to hold the various small ones in different neighborhoods.
 From the church of the Rev. Chas. H. Parkhurst, which faces Madison square, five hundred members of the cheral societies marched out and led in the singing The people joined heartily in the familiar old tunes: tsThe Battle Hymn of the Republic,' "Oh. God. Our Help in Ages Past

Under the Federal Food and

PROF. SPAID C0MMENDS
DEMONSTRATION WORK.
Writes President of The Eastern
Shore Trust Company Expressing
Pleasure That The Company Is
Making The Work Possible In The
County.

The following letter, written by
Superintendent A. R. Spaid, of the
Dorchester County Public Schools
gives some idea of the Importance at
tsEhed by advanced school men to
the work to be done in this county
by Miss Kellar, who will be in charge
of the Home Demonstration Work
and also of the efforts being put
forth to obtain such agents. The let
ter follows:
Cambridge, Md, May 81, 1916.
Mr.. Geo. w. Woolford,
President Eastern Shore
Trust Company,
Cambridge, Maryland.
Ny dear Mr.. Woolford:
wish to express my pleasure at
the announcement you made last
night, that the Eastern Shore Trust
Company is bringing Miss Katherine
A Pritchett into Dorchester county to
labor with our girls and their moth
ers in home demonstration work. A
year or so ago l tried very hard to
get our School Board, as well as the
County Commissioners, to bring one
of the agents, sent out by the U. S.
Department of Agriculture, to under
take work in this county such as Miss
Prltchett and her assistants are
about to do. However, both the
members of the School Board as wcll
as the County Commissioners put up
the excuse that there was not money
for such an undertaking. Hence, it
is very pleasing to school man who
knows the Importance of the kind of
work that Miss Pritchett does, to
learn that the Eastern Shore Trust
Company is to finance the undertake
ing and made the work an actuality.
1t is also pleasing to me to know
that your company is willing to as
sist the county in this particular
way. 1t may be that some will say
that you are doing this to advertise,
but if such is the case, remember
what Miss Pritchett said last night,
Work like the devil, and advertise.
In closing, l wish to congratulate
you on the most excellent program
which you gave to the people of Cam
bridge last night. 1t was of high
merit and you deserve much praise.
Wishing your company continued
prosperity, 1 am,
Yours truly,
A. r. SPAID.

WRITER EEASTS EDITORS
Mrs. Anna Steese Richardson Gives
Grateful Luncheon to Kind Jour-
naliStS.

Not many editors live to see the
day when a contributor rises up to
tell them they are kind and generous
beings and gives them. a luncheon
at which she pays all the bills. But
that is what Mrs. Anna Steese Rich
ardson did last week at the Brevoort
Hotel when she gathered about her
editors who have bought her'copy."
Mrs. Richardson was the only
woman preSent-which may or may
not prove that women editors were
kind to her. But the brave men who
hold down editorial chairs in the
sanctums of important publications
heard Mrs. Richardson tell how she
came to New York 16 years ago with
| $57 and three children and started
to earn their living by writing, and
how the kindly editors bought her
articles and how when she had ty-
phoid fever she found upon recovery
that one publication had paid her
salary during all that time.
There were some tears during this
recital of her struggles, and every
man present agreed that she was en-
titled to all the success that had
come to her. In brief, it was love
feast of delighted contributor and
more than a dozen satisfied editors.
