DIFFER OVER ORIGIN OF DOG
Ancestor Has Long Been a Mat
ter of Dispute.

The ancestry of the dog has been
the occasion of much controversy, &C
cording to Leo S. CrandalPs book,
"Pets." Many naturalists have con-
sidered that 1t is descended from a
single ancestor, such as the common
wolf of Europe. Darwin, however,
leans toward the theory of multiple
origin, and advances much convincing
proof in support of his belief. 1t Is
widely known that many savage tribes
have dogs. which appear to be simply
half-tamed representatives of the par
ticular wild doglike animals inhabiting
the same regions.
The dogs of the American plains In
dians closely resemble the small prai-
RE wolf, or coyote; the husky of the
north country is plainly not far re-
moved from the gray wolf; the Ger
a sheep dog and the Samoyede are
strikingly wolflike In appearance.
Whether our present dogs are the re-
suit of crossing these many simple
derivatives of wolves and jackals
among themselves, or whether there
was an original ancestral dog, ex-
tinct. with which the blood of other
species has become mingled, we have
not yet been able to determine, though
so many primordial animal remains
have come to light.
According to st. George Mivart. the
dingo is the only wild dog still exist
ing which meets the requirements of
an ancestor Of u modern breeds.
This species is found throughout Aus.
tralla and fossil bones which have been
found show its presence there from
very early times.

PLAN AIR POSTAL
Is Expected by Engllshmen to Be Ono
Of the First Innovations When
Peace Is Declared.

Airplane postal service will be one of
the first Innovations of peace in Eng
land. The problem is already being
worked out In detail, even to the cost
of postage and hours Of collection and
delivery. 1t Is also said that within
the first few months after peace q
transatlantic alrplane service will be
established. Airplane engineers say
that the problem Of constructing a
machine for transatlantic flight has
been solved In theory, and machines
which would cross the Atlantic could
be built to-day IL 1t were not that the
long distance buses Of wal time must
also be heavy weight carriers. The
most interesting result Of these peace
plans Is that 1t has been found pos
sible to arrange the collection and de-
livery Of letters between London and
Glasgow with such dispatch that a cor
respondent in London will be able to
receive a written answer within the
working day. Applied to the middle

that a Kansas City business man will

GERMANS BURY DEAD
WITHOUT CLOTHING
Permit Only Paper to Be
Wrapped About Bodies to
Be Inferred.

The Germans are expected to strip
their dead before they bury them.
Bodies are to be placed into the collins
without a stitch of clothing. They
may be wrapped in paper, however.
This is the only concession made to
the relatives of the dead, whose feel
ings are hurt by the order.
Clothing is very scarce In Germany.
Every scrap counts. The government
has no use for sentimentalists who
would sQuander garments on the dead
while the living are without clothes.
The rules and regulations regarding
burials are not observed strictly
enough by the population of Munich,
says the Neueste Nachrichten. Ac-
cording to a report published by the
mayors office there were 936 men
buried In Prince Albert coats and 1900
men buried In sack coats during the
year, while 1876 women were buried in
silk and 2,132 in wooden dresses.
In Munich the custom Of hiring
women who attend to washing and
dressing the dead Is In vogue. These
women, the official attendants of the
dead, have been ordered by thesmayor
to refuse their services wherever they
are asked to put into the coffin a
corpse clothed in anything but paper.
These professional women are held re-
sponsible for the execution of the
edict.
In order to facilitate matters 1t has
been proposed to inaugurate a new
activity on the part of the state. All
the clothing worn by and left by a per-
son deceased is to be turned over to
the authorities, who will furnish a
paper costume for the body. Thus no
more of these precious textile mate
rails are to be buried with the dead.

APRIL SIXTH THE DAY
That Day Set Aside AS
Liberty Day" And Is To
Be Made Memorable in
The Worlds History.

A dav memorable in the annals
of the American and world
history forever and forever is
the
Sixth of April
Never as long as life exists in
these United States; never as
long as the love for liberty clings
to us; never as long as red blood
flows in American veins will that
day be forgotten.
Never again can it be merely
one of many days.
For IL is the day upon which
our country arrayed itself in
open hostility against the foe of
liberty, the enemy OF democracy
and the violator of all human
rights, justice, humanity and
peace.
Liberty Day, April 9th, 1918,
was the first day upon which the
third Liberty Loan bonds were
opened for subscription.
1t is safe, profitable and patri-
otto to subscribe for Liberty
Loan bonds down to the last
dollar you now have and can
save in the next year.
Why not be Americans in the
truest and biggest sense by do
ing it early? Let us deliver a
double blow at the kaiser by
showing him that we, one and
all, are standing shoulder to
shoulder with our men in this
war We can do this by taking
up the entire issue of the third
Liberty Loan at the very start.
That is a mark we'll worthy
to aim at. At such a mark
Washington and Lincoln would
have armed. What a wonderful
thing for our children's children
to re-tell-the subscribing of the
whole issue of the third Liberty
Loan in such a short time.
Then, indeed, we could look
squarely into the eyes of those
who march away from us to 60
over there" and truthfully say;
1--WE are going to stand back
of you all the lime you are away.
Our dollars will help you win in
that fiery hell of battle into
which you may he thu ust by
your enemy and oursl"
