TO Be INAUGuRATED FRIDAY
Next President Of the United States
Will Be Sworn In on a Day Con.
sidered unlucky.

Whichever Of the two presidential
candidates tacks his nameplate on the
door OF the White House next year will
have to he inaugiiraied on Frldny.
One-thlrd OF the - presidents of the
United States were lnaugurated on
Monday and only three on Friday, one
Of whom, Lincoln, was assasslnated,
and Pierce failed of reelection.
Friday has always seemed to be
dark, drear and unlucky day for pres
idents. Tyler, Polk and Pierce died
on Friday.
Leap year seems TO have been mad.
Presidential offspring of leap wears
have been Taylor, who died In Wee;
Pierce, who gained neither fame nor
a second term, and Johnson, the only
president lmpeached. As season
for presidents to be born in, late
spring and early summer are lmpossl-
Bile, and the later summer Is scarcely
to be thought Of.
No president ever was born In May
or June, the only chief executives
midsummer has provided the nation
being ]. Q. Adams, born In July, and
Benjamin Harrison. With one excep-
tiOn, aside from the two already men,
toned. presidential birthdays have
been restricted to the period between
October and April. Eight executives
were born In late autumn, eight In
winter and eight In early spring. The
exception Is W. II. Taft, born In Sep
tember. Theodore Roosevelt was an
October baby.--Detrolt News.

The flamlngo will be protected by
an order OF council issued by the gov
ernment Of the Bahama islands, the
National Geographic society an
nounces. The birds nest in the marshes
Of the islands. The action Of the Is
land government followed an expedl-
ton which tralled the flamingo into
the marshes and there took motion
pictures of Its habitat. II was esti-
mated that since 1901 the number Of
the birds on the island has been re-
duced from 10000 to about 1000 by
the depredations of sponge fishermen,
who killed them for food.

Love AND POETRY
Combination Long Prominent in
Japanese Wooing.
Custom Of UtagakI First Mentioned In
Fifth Century, Though Believed
to Be Much Older-Devoted
to Verse Making.

One of the prettiest customs of old
Japan that has survived the new or
der Is the Utagaki. or gathering of
japanese young men and women In
flower season to compose odes TO the
blossoms and to the mOonbeams,
forming friendships that often endure
through life. II is first mentioned In
the time Of Emperor Yuryaku In the
fifth century, although no doubt much
older.
The Utagaki. or primitive form of
wooing. according to which Utagaki
was most fashionable, took place at
Tsuwaklnoichi in Yamato, In the vi
cinity of Mount Utagaki. AT these
happy gatherings, If a man failed to
win the heart of the lady he was bent
on winning, the others made a laugh
ing-stock of him and jeered him to in
dignation. Consequently, suitors were
persevering in order to escape ridl-
Guile.
AS the meeting came to order, If
there was order. each of the partici-
pants selected theme for the ode to
be composed. After the composition
was completed, the man recited his
achievement to the company. and a
lady was asked to recite hers; and so
it went, men and women reciting in
turn, until all had done.
Those whose verses pleased the au-
dience most were then commended
for their efforts. The man whose
verse won most approval was to have
the lady whose verse was deemed
best. At least it was easier for the
ladies to like the men who were most
expert In these Odes, which created
jealousy among those not so expert
The upshot of it all usually was that
all finally mated before the festival
was over.
This custom Of Utagaki continued
popular for centuries. Competition in
poetry and love was considered wcr.
thy Of emulation. One does not won.
der that ii frequently led to war.
AS a rule the higher classes did no,
allow their daughters to go from
home unattended; but the Utagakl
was always considered an exception
to the rule. Nor Is 1t remarkable that
we often read in the literature Of this
| period such expressions as "fell in love
at first sight," and so on. 1t was only
natural that in time. as civilization
advanced, the custom Of holding
Utagaki should fall into disuse.
There is belief in Japan that the
custom of holding these poetic love
meetings is as old as the first emperor
1t is said that an incident in the life
of the imperial house gave rise to the
custom Of Utagaki In those far-of1
days marriage, in 80 cases out of 100
took place by the exchanging of Odes
which were expressions of love-

VIII Develop Island Property.

Evidently there is one man in Eng
land who Is not seriously disturbed by
the idea that the ownership Of large
estates will progressively give way to
the division Of land into small hold
ings; at any rate Lord Leverholme has
not hesitated to purchase Lewis island,
which, next to Great Britain and Ire
land, Is the largest Of the British
isles. Lewis island covers some TO
square miles, off the west coast of
Scotland, and has a present population
Of about 10000 people. This, however.
It Is said, the new owner regards as
quite an inadequate population for his
island, which he thinks should reason.

make his property the center Of the

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Indexing counties as to dominant
breed Of live stock maintained, through
the use of county breed directories,
has won great favor in Iowa, where
several years ago Linn county inaugu-
rated this work. Such catalogues are
valuable in identifying the owners of
different breeds and are effective in
promoting sales and in attracting
prospective purchasers to the locality.
They constitute a relatively perma-
nent form Of advertising, as ordinar.
lily they are kept for future reference
by those who receive them. The di.
rectories are best issued under the
authority Of county live stock breed
'ers association or the local farm blu.
ireau. Ordinarily the expenses of these
booklets are raised by the sale Of ad
vertising space to breeders. Practi
cally any rural printing Office can put
out creditable productions Of this
class.
