HOW NAMES BECOME CHANGED
Sometimes Intentionally, but More
Often Due to the "Wear and
Tear Of Time"

"Who Was Who?" is the suggested
title for new book to contain the
names Of all persons who have
changed their names. A new publica-
ton will do that in England. II the
work is carried back far enough 1t will
be found that scarcely name has
survived the wear and tear of time.
Some Of the changes are intentional,
like our daily applications in, court, but
most Of them are due to bad spoilers
or poor pronunciation and phonetic
spelling to express the errors of pro-
nunciation. Our Dutch ancestors had
habit Of cutting off everything that
went down to and including the "van."
The name "Bureh'' was originally
Birch" and meant man who lived by
the birch tree. It is curious COM
ment on this new book that the Lon
don newspaper editor who is putting It
out has juggled his own name after
the English custom, when taking q
title. Good names are misfortune
when they are used like family Dor.
traits to make snobs.-Exchange.

Could those sleeping here but know
It'll Could they but know that Trdnce,
us ever since those terrible days Of
1914, is standing fast. holding the en-
envy ut bay, and bearing the brunt Of
this terrific struggle! They must
know 1t, for they all sleep so peace
fully. Their part is done. They have
given everything they had to give and
unbegrudgingly. For them the distant
rumble of the cannon has no misgiv-
ings, for they sleep secure in the be-
lief that victory some day will be ours.
Sleep on, comrades-for am priv
ileged to call you comrades-your
work is over. You have well earned
your rest. Those of us who are left
will carry on the work you SO well be-
gan.
Just as l left the gate, turning
homeward, strange procession ap-
peared down the lane. and stopped to
let 1t pass-a huge cannon, painted
war gray, followed by eight grizzled
territorials, their rifles slung over their
shoulders poilu fashion. They were
dirty, unshaven, and their uniforms
faded and torn, but, oh, so typical of
France, torn and wracked by four
long years Of war. On the truck was
painted the word 'Mdnitions.' It was
not mislabeled, for it carried cannon
fodder that had served its purpose,
and mu been used up in the struggle.
II came quickly to attention and sa-
luted. 1t is custom Of the country.
often done without thought or feeling,
but this time my soul was In 1t. I was
proud to thus render homage to one
poor common soldier as he passed on
his last, long march. ,a7
"Open wide the gates and give the
newcomer room! Give him COM
Portable place in that furthest row, for
he must have rest and peace. The
leaves in the trees rustled, the torn
and faded flags fluttered and the tin
tricolor cockades on each cross tinkled
thus was the newcomer welcomed
into his last earthly home"

GET GOOD MEAL s
FOR II CENTS

beef, potatoes, buttered beets, currant
pudding. bread, tea or coffee. The
soups are not the dishwater type,
either, but of good stock. An Eagle
Hut shilling supper provides the
American fighter with meat pie con-
tanning more meat than crust; or sau-
sage, potatoes, jelly, bread and butter,
cake and tea or coffee. Commercial
eating places charge two or three
times this amount, often as high as IS
cents, within governmental restric-
lions.
Variety to Choose From.
The American soldier or sailor also
can choose from extra dishes at equal
ly low prices, choice Of fish, pie, eggs
prepared in various ways, baked beans,
salads, fried onions, rice-and-marma-
lade, custards, jellies and other sweets
which are strangers to camp mess.
The prices charged at the Eagle Hut
are from two to six cents less than
the ordinary restaurant prices. In ad-
dition, this is the one place where the
American boys can get that most typ
zeal home delicacy, American pancakes
with maple strip, which the king and
queen sampled recently. Twelve
cents buys brace of cakes with ma
pie strip, and the first half-month's de-
mand for this favorite totaled one or
more helpings for 8.124 men.
1t Is no wonder then that Eagle Hut
feeds between 1000 and $500 Ameri-
can fighters daily, and that the noon
hour ia continuous rush which taxes
, to the uttermost the efforts of the
mattresses, all women who volunteer
their services and minister with smil-
ing patience and friendliness to the
appreciative lads from the United
States.
Eagle Hut dispenses other commodi-
ties, tobacco and candy topping the
list of favorites. A few Americans,
forgetting the many advantages and
economies found at the Hut, have COM
planned that their favorite brands Of
American tobacco. If at all obtainable.
cost them more than 1t did at home.
They did not know that there ia a
high import duty on cigarettes and
prepared tobacco for pipes and ''mak.
ings" nor. that there is a home tax
which Is causing the English tobac-
conists to revise their prices often.
Smoking imported tobacco in England
today really is luxury. The wise
stranger has given it up in favor Of
the brands the English use.

STILL SEEK PLEASr--.E
Missionaries Returning From Egypt
Surprised at American Conditions.

That all the automobiles in Egypt
have been Communicated by the Brit
ish government for military purposes
is the statement made by Mr.. and Mrs.
Harvey z. Philips who, with their s.
year-old daughter, Harriet, have just
arrived in Topeka from Cairo to spend
several weeks with Mrs. Philips's par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. G. H. Griggs, 1926
Jewell avenue. and with the Rev. Mr..
Philips's parents, Mr.. and Mrs. S. C.
Philips, 1917 Lincoln street.
Doctor Philips and wife went to
Egypt ten years ago as missionaries
for the United Presbyterian church to
engage in work with the only Ameri-
can mission in Egypt. Doctor Philips
has charge of the mems division and
Mrs. Philips has charge of the wom-
ems division of the work. They will
again return to Egypt after fifteen
months furlo.
Doctor Philips and his wife say
they were greatly surprised to lind,
upcn arriving in America. that the
pursuit of pleasure was going on here
as usual The trip, which ordinarily
can be made from Cairo to New York
in twelve days, was made by way OF
the Pacific on account OF war condi-
tions and required three months. All
the way, they said everyone seemed to
be engaged in some kind of military
occupation. Mrs. Philips said that
