The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-01-01

DR.. George F. Kunz, the famous
New York gem expert, geologist, etc..
and retiring vice president of the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Science, told the asso-
citation at it's convention in New York
that for national defense purposes the
entire population of the United States
should be catalogued and the men
classified according to their various
abilities or adaptation under the let
ters A, B, G, D, ETH, showing their
fitness for their various vocations ac-
cording to a percentage up 90 TO-. An
examination of these men should be
made two, three or four times a year
so that one could judge in the case
OF ditch digger, a mechanic. SOL
dier--or whatever the other vocation
might be-whether the man was at
a 20, 80, SO or 100 per cent standard.
This need not involve heavy expense.
The men could be weighed, their tenn
perature taken, their eyes examined,
and summary judgment formed of
their actual health. The rating as to
fitness must of course depend upon
experimental tests However, in a
large majority of instances the attes-
tation of the manager or superinten-
dent under whom the workers were
placed would afford the most con-
elusive evidence as to their degree
of fitness

OUR NEW YEAR
AND OTHERS

Not even in this country is the first
of January, Gregorian or New Style,
universally celebrated as New Years
Day, as there are considerable sec
tons of the population which cling
to other systems of reckoning time
Most numerous and influential are
the Jews, who, in common with their
brethren the world over, celebrated
the arrival of the New Year 5677 on
Sept. 28th last Scattered over the
country are no small number of
Asiatic who are followers of the
Prophet, and these observed Muhar-
ram, the beginning of the Moham-
medan year 1896, on Oct. 2Sth. The
adherents of the Eastern Church, in
Guiding Russians, Serbs, Greeks, Bull
gars and other peoples of Eastern
Europe, many of whom are to be
found on this side of the Atlantic,
reckon the flight of time by the
Julian or Old Style calendar, which
is now Is days behind the Gregorian
reckoning, so they will not have their
New Year until our fourteenth of
January. Many Indian tribes preserve
their old customs as regards New
Year, which is based on lunar CAL
culations. The gypsies, too, have
their distinctive New Year, which
falls on the first full moon after st.
Johns Day. American freethinkers
attempted some years ago to popu-
larlze new system, called the Era
Of Man, dating from the execution of
the philosopher Bruno, who was con-
victed of heresy by the ecclesiastical
l.,
Rome in 1900. To the few who still
adhere to this system the New Year
is BIT E. M
The ancient Egyptians were the
first to fix the length of the year.
They had a year based on the sea-
sons, containing 365 days divided into
IL months of 80 days each, with five
extra days at the end of the year. The
Roman year was introduced by Ro-
mulus> in 1913 B. C. The lunar year
of II months or 1854 days, 8 hours.
48 minutes, was in vogue among the
Greeks in ancient times and also
among the Persians, Chaldeans and
Jews. The Athenians began the year
in June, the Macedonans in Septem-
Der, the early Christians of Egypt and
Ethiopia in August, and the Per-
slams and Armenians in. August The
Merovingian monarchs of France be-
gan the year in March, and the Car
lovingians sometimes at Christmas
and sometimes at Easter. InA1564
Charles TX. of France ordered New
Years Day to be observed on the
first of January. Until the time of
William the Conuueror the English
began their wear on Christmas
William was crowned on the first of
January, and the English people were
ordered to begin their year at that
time. Until 1852, when the New
Style was adopted, the people of Eng
land and her American colonies paid
little attention to the first of Janu-
airy, and New Years Day was gen.
orally observed on the 25th Of March.

association, formed "to perpetuate
the memory Of the martyred dead"
serves a useful purpose in keeping
alive the memory of that awful
tragedy, which the world, Isurfeited
with horrors. might otherwise forget.
The Iroquois disaster doubtless
brought about a great improvement
4 the safety of playhouses the world
yer, and it is to be hoped that there
re now few theatres where the rep
tition of such a catastrophe is pos
ible.
1t may be well to recall that the
arrible toll of life in the Iroquois
re was in large part due to the fact
hat the ushers fed for safety with
out stopping to unlock and unbolt
The fire exits provided on every floor.
The spectators were forced to seek
escape from the fiery furnace through
the main exits, and the crush there
was so terrible that hundreds were
overpowered and persisted. A rope
obstructed the lowering of the as
bestos curtain for some little time,
and, even after it had been lowered,
panic stricken stage hands opened
large double door in the rear of the
stage, causing terrific draft which
sent the curtain bulging far out into
the playhouse. The architect of the
Iroquois, which was a new theatre,
had provided we'll for the safety of
patrons, but human inefficiency nulli-
fed his efforts.
pathetic feature of Iroquois Me-
mortal Day is the remembrance of
the ono woman whose bOdV was the
only one of the 600 that could not
be identified. She was buried in
Montrose cemetery, in a lot purchas-
ed by public subscription, and every
year on the anniversary of her tragic
death the grave of Che unknown vic
tim has been decorated with flowers.

A'CANADIAN HUMORIST.

Canada has had a great many hui
! morists of more or less celebrity, and
it has been said that Judge Halibur-
ton, author of "Sam Slick was the
daddy of American humorists. Since
the death of Mark Twain the task of
holding aloft the torch Of humor
seems again to have devolved upon a
Canadian, Stephen Leacock, whose
literary works of the last few years
have gained for him a place in the
front rank of laughter producers. He
is a Canadian only by adoption, hav-
ing been born forty-seven years ago
today at Swanmoor, Hants, England.
He was educated at Upper Canada
College, Toronto, and the University of
Toronto, graduating from the latter
institution just quarter of a CEN
fury ago.
'At the university" he says, ri spent
my entire time in the acquisition Of
Languages living, dead and half dead,
and knew nothing of the outside
world. In this diligent pursuit of
words I spent about sixteen hours of
each day. Very soon after gradua-
ton 1 had forgotten the languages
rupt In other words I was what
is called distinguished graduate, and
as such I took to school teaching as
the only trade could find that need
ed neither experience nor intellect"
OF his pupils he says: Those who
seemed the LATEST and the least en-
amored of books are now rising to
eminence at the bar, in business and
in public life: the really promising
boys who took all the prizes are now
able with difficulty to earn the wages
of a clerk in a summer hotel or
deckhand on canal boat"
In 1899 Mr.. Leacock entered the
University Of Chicago to study eco
Monies and political science, and in
1903 he took the degree of doctor of
philosophy. THE meaning of this
degree is that the recipient of instruc-
ton is examined for the last time in
his life and is pronounced completely
full. After this no new ideas can be
impaired to him.
TIe then returned to Canada and
joined the faculty of McGill Univers
ity, eventually becoming head Of the
department Of political economy in the
Montreal institution. In 1907 and
1908 he made a tour of the empire.
giving lectures on imperial organiZa-
ton under the AUSPICES of the Cecil
Rhodes Trust when I state he
says, that these lectures were follow
ed almost Immediately by the Union
of South Africa, the banana riots in
Trinidad and the TurcoItalian war,
I think the reader can form some idea
of their Importance"
Mr.. Leacock's career as a humor-
list began with the publication Of
Nonsense Novels and LITERARY
Lapses," and since then he has turn
ed out number of other volumes of
witty, whimsical humor

THE BOY EDITOR

Perhaps it, is no longer legitimate
to refer to Roy w. Howard as "boy
editor for on this first day of Jam
uary, 1917, he attained to the veneer
able of thirty-two years. Considered
as the head of a great international
news gathering organization, with
correspondents all over the world,
and serving more papers than any
other single agency with the excep-
ton of the Associated Press, Mr..
Howard is still a Juvenile as compar-
ed with other men holding positions
OF similar Importance. The president
of the United Press scored the biggest
scoop of his career a few months ago,
when he was given the memorable in
terview by Lloyd George, IN which
Englands big little man announced
that John Bull was stripped for a
fight to a finish, and would be salts
fled with nothing less than a knock
out. Mr. Howard was quite able to
con: prehend the full Significance Of
the fighting Welshman's assertions.
for in his time he had served as a
sporting editor 1t was more than ac-
culent that Mr.. lego George passed
up the Journalists OF his own county
and the other ..n'.,,ican correspon-
dents and poure his defiant ut,er-
ances into the ears II the youthful
Horser. Doubtless the british stat s
man, since elevated 10 he Premier
ship. recognized Iii the Feen-mi,.,ied
young American a kindred spirit.
Mr.. Howard was still in his teens
when he found employment as a re-
porter on the staff of the News in In
dianapolis, his home city. On that
great newspaper he gained his first
schooling in journalism. and later was
sporting editor of the Indianapolis
Star, and employed on papers in st.
Louis and Cincinnati. It will be elev-
en- years next March since he invaded
New York, a boy of twenty-five, to
assume charge of the metropolitan
branch of the Scripps-McRae league
A little later the Scripps-McRae was
united with two other news agencies,
