Today the birds are all quite
different than they were thou
sands of years ago. Many, many
years ago the first bird that was
ever seen on earth was called
the Archacopteryx, which is a
Greek word meaning ancient
wing"
1t was a very odd bird 1t had
a long, thick tail with bows of
flesh and with feathers growing
from it. 1t was not like a birds
tail is now, but more like a
lizards tail. 1t had two legs
with which it could walk and
perch in the trees.
1t also had two other limbs
like hands, which it probably
nsed to climb about the trees
instead of flying about from
bough to bough as birds do now.
Its eye was fitted with a sort
or armor shield, as the reptiles.
Its beak was armed with strong
teeth.

Some Points.

Statistics recently made public
show that there are sixty-seven
men in the United States with
an annual income of more than a
million dollars.
1t is too much. They can not
possibly use it, snd they are not
likely to give away any consider
able amount Of it. That the
government does not take in
taxation simply adds more mil
lions to their pile, thereby re-
ducing the amount in circulation
among the less fortunate.
On general principles a man
has a right to all of the money
he can honestly earn, but there
should be a limit beyond which
no man can 60.
If the government would sci
a seasonable sum as the limit to
the size of fortunes and their
incomes, and take possession Of
everything beyond that limit
there would be an end to thu
accumulation of the. wealth o.
the country in the hands of ;
few to the detriment of tn,
many.
The principal prop of bolshev
ism would be knocked from un
; der its feet, and justice. RICH
and harmony would be more il
evidence than the growing un
rest that is now so prevalent.
