THIS IS SERPENT YEAR,
ONE OF GOOD LUCK, is
BELIEF OF JAPANESE
IBy Associated Pressl

TOXIC. Japan.-The year 1917 in
ancient Japanese tradition is known
as the year of the Serpent, believed
by the same tradition to be associat-
ed with good luck and fortune. The
outgoing year. known as the year Of
the Dragon, fulfilled its traditional
expectation that il would be accom-.
panied by progress;veness and de-
.yelopment for the Empire of Japan.
Among Japanese the serpent is
always regarded as tie emblem Of
good fortune and on that account is
feyered instead Of being killed by
great masses of the people. The
popular japanese word mi meaning
serpent also signifies fruitful be-
cause its pronunciation corresponds
to the sound of the Japanese word
for fruit. Thus the year Of the Ser
pent is fruitful, rich and prosperous.
The goddess Benten. one OF the
seven popular gods and goddesses
of fortune. is additionally believed
to be the patron of the Serpent, and
at every shrine dedicated to the
popular goddess of fortune are kept
a number of the reptiles sacred to
the deity. They are treated with
reverence and something of awe as
the messengers of the goddess. No
farmer win destroy serpent, but
win rather keep it and feed it. Many
stories are told OF families having
wealth through having kept
and fed the creature in their house
hold as a treasure or sacred thing.

VAN HORN, Texas Miss Bertye
DiItz, one OF the few feminine deputy
sheriffs in the country, does not find
It at all necessary to wear sombrero

she wears modish tailored suits. stylish

spicous through being carried con-
cealed in her muff.
Miss Diltz says that she has never
yet had occasion to use her revolver
