THE ORIGIN OF WOMAN

A magazine writer consumes con siderable space in trying to prove that it was wrong to teach that wo- man was made from Adams rib. He says the proposition is ridiculous and while at may have been well enough to teach it in the dim and distant past, we ought to be ashamed of our selves for sticking to the "supersti- tion"
 If our own idea or belief of the origin of woman is a superstition, then 1t is quite as good a superstition as other people have. For our it is not the only theory of the origin of woman. Many other people have many other theories or superstitions.
 The Austrian natives believe that woman was once a toad-and that isn't very nice. If it is true how ever, it shows what a wonderful creature the toad was transformed into and we can rejoice thereat. Then the Laplanders, believe that woman was once a rabbit, and since a rabbit is more likeable than toad, we pre- fer the Lapland superstition to the Australian.
 The Japanese believe that woman grew upon tree-and that is getting along still better. The feathery blos- soms of the trees, with their color and their perfume, seem more nearly approaching the realm of woman hood than do rabbits and toads.
 But if ever we are compelled to give up our idea that woman was made from the rib of man, we are going to accept the Persian theory. That is by all odds the prettiest one, and the one we could more easily be- lieve than any other The Persians assert that woman fell from heaven. Dispatch.

MUST POSTPONE
 FARM CAMP AIGN
BAD CONDITION OF ROADS MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR COMMERCIAL CLUB TO CAR BY OUT ITS PROGRAM.

Due to the fact that several of the main highways leading from Marian na to various points in the county are in bad condition as result of the heavy rains the past two months, the farm campaign planned by the Mari anna Commercial Club will have to be postponed for a week or ten days and perhaps longer. While some of the roads can be travelled by autoo- mobile and the appointments reached by them could be filled, there are so many places that are inaccessible that the farm committee of the Commer- cial Club has deemed 1t inadvisable to attempt the campaign at this time. If the weather conditions remain good for week the holes in the roads that make auto travel impos- sible now will be filled, the roads graded and culverts repaired and in this event the schedule announced for next week will be carried out the week following.
 The road to Moro is now in ex- cellent condition and unless it rains in the meantime the big rally sched- uled for that town on next Monday night will be held. On this occasion the members of the Commercial Club will be the guests of the citizens of Moro at a luncheon, followed by 8 general meeting at which community and county problems will be dis cussed.

 Like a biplane in the air; She left the boys all in the soup To grieve and rend their hair And now she's gone, and it's our
 doom
 To eat the bitter pill; And when we view the vacant room 'Tis lonesome on the hill. As chorister she served our church For seven years, almost. She never left us in the lurch,
 But was always at her post. Glenn Bumpers was lucky boy,
 To win bride so shy; We hope he fills her life with joy As the coming years roll by. 1t is our hope since she has gone, She escapes the tolls that bump us, And comes up smiling later on

Lenten Season Began
 Wednesday, This Week

Wednesday marked the beginning of the religious period known as Lent, a season of 40 days during which what are known in the Epico- pal and Catholic faiths as the pen ltential offices of the church take precedent over everything else in the services.
 Lent Is observed as season of fasting and prayer It is commemo- ratlve Of the agony and trial of the Lord Jesus Christ, which eliminated Tn His crucifixtion. This most sol emn event in the church is observed on Good Friday which comes before Easter Sunday, after which the trap pings of woe and penitence on the altars are changed to give place to the observance with jdyous music and hymns of praise, of the resurrec- ton.
 While Lent is observed to some ex- tent by all Protestant churches, it IS particularly observed by those of Catholic and Episcopal faiths. In the Catholic churches fasting and prayers are obligatory on many days and special masses and other services are held in the churches daily.
 The Episcopal church calendar Lent is also strictly observed, and the services are held almost daily in the churches throughout the 4O-day period. As in the Catholic churches the chants and hymns and the other musical portions of the service take 
 throughout Lent.
 Special calendars setting forth the hours and days on which services will be held have been distributed to the members of St. Andrews Parish by Rev. c. c. Burke, rector. During Lent also, as rule, those who will seek confirmation are instructed, and during Easter week confirmation services will be held in most of the Episcopal churches.

EARNEST MAN ON FORGE
Chicago Detective Accorded Title by
 His Comrades.

Chicago any policeman in Chicago will tell you today that Will liam Behan, detective sergeant, is the bravest man on the force. They say he is one man in a million.
 Behan smiles at this and says he will leave it to any man that he only did what a man with heatr would do.
 Here, then, is chance to put your self in his place-figuratively.
 Behan, at midnight saw a tiny flame snapped on and off in a store. Through a darkened window he watched until he saw the light again In that fraction of a second of illu- imitation he saw man crouched be- fore a safe.
 Noiselessly he entered the store with his pass key. With equal stealth he made his way to the far end of the room without disturbing the ma rauder.
 It was pitch dark, he did not know how desperate man he was facing there in the inky blackness. He had the law on his side. He could shoot with perfect justice without saying a word. If he called out it was 10 to l chance the answer would be a bullet. His life was the stake in that course. His family would be the suf- ferers if the burglar did shoot and shoot true.
 Throw up your hands, command cd Behan.
 A trigger clicked Behan jumped toward the sound and downed his un- seen opponent. But when the des- perate fight that ensued was going against him the policeman shot thru his pocket. The robber fell dead.
 The policeman's story, in retros- pect, upsets several highly reparded theories on the psychology of fear and the instinct of elf-preservation
 Killing man is the last thing any normal, man wants to do,' he ex- plained. There 1 am in the dark. I don't know if this fellow is a killer or not. I am pretty fair sized man and my head works pretty fast, or as fast as I figured his was liable to work. No, didn't think of my own life or any consequences. That wasn't bravery. It was just that I had job on my hands. Any police man would raother bring in his pris- oner than kill him.
 "So I figured that I had as good a chance as he had, with the possible exception fstaking him to the first shot, in case he was quick with his gun. Then you also got to figure that my yelling would scare him or startle him for a moment or two. had the advantage. That was just the way it happened. When yelled he jumped before his brain could tell him to grab his gun. only shot when his arm got free and he got his gun. Now 1 have nothing to regret for l certainly gave him a chance"
 Would you have given the burglar that chance?-Alexander F. Jones in Kansas City Star.
