FREE SPEECH

When they say the world is growing
 Worse and worse, And it's only fit for slowing
 In hearse, That in fact we're simply staying In a rapidly decaying
 Universe: Do not let those mourners fret you When they dourly seek to get you
 In their clutch; For that style of cheerful chatter Needn't cause your tears to splatter, Since it really doesn't matter
 Very much When they say girls are awful
 As be That our boys have grown unlawful
 List to me. That's a tale that Age would throw Fit about when Father Noah
 Put to sea; Age has always cried acutely, youth will--oh almost absolutely
 Get in Dutch;" Let the poor old foges chatter As their prophecies they scatter For 1t really doesn't matter
 Very much. Let the croakers and the groaners
 Have their say, Let the misery -bemoaners
 Moan away, Let the fiery world d-upsetters Talk of slavery and letters
 As they may; You don't need to pay attention As they view with apprehension
 Life and such; If their vocal chords they shatter With this line of pleasant chatter We'll it really doesn't matter
 Very much.

'Twa. Always Thus

There were always advocates of blue laws, peo- pie who thought the world getting and needed pulling up sharply. They it back to the morality of former epochs which have been mellowed by passing years that the outlines of ancient sins which in their day may have been rough, softened.
 Those who in the legislative which has just passed some of the states is passing in the others bombarding legislatures inderdct dancing were not pioneers. There were severe critics of dancing in the good old days when the dances supposed by us to have been pure-to have been the poetry of motion.
 There were the stately mnuet and the quadrille in its many varieties, wherein belles beaus bowed with exceeding grace held each only by the hand
 Present day reformers sigh for those times and those dances; and every day reads denuncation of syncopated dancing. And many there who sincerely believe there times like these, lost to modesty.
 And yet-in the year 17so a citizen of London, having visited the dancing school of MT. Rigadoon with whom his daughter taking dancing lessons, felt called upon to write indignant the London Spectator concerning what he there.
 T was amazed he wrote, ito my girl handled by and handling young fellows with much familiarity; and could have thought it in

AGATHA

A GATHA, the good old English
N favorite, has distinctly Greek
origin. 1t comes from the Greek word
meaning good. For long time 1t re-
NAMED indigenous to Greece, but final
ly came to European fame through a
SIcillan girl called Agatha, who was
tortured to death at Rome in the De-
clan persecution. Sicily straightway
made her guardian saint and since
that little island has always proved a
bone Of contention between warning
European countries, and was held sue
cessively, for periods Of greater or
less duration, by the Greeks, Sara
Gems, Normans, French, Arragonese,
Spanlards and Bourbons, the name Of
st. Agatha spread throughout Europe.
st. Agatha's festival day is cele-
brated in the churches Of all the coun-
tries which held Sicily for time.
Even Russia has adopted the name
and calls It Agada, Agatha was the

: HOW DO YOU SAY 1T?
By c. N. LURE
Common Errors in English and
How to Avoid Them
"soRT Of"

THIS expression, "sort Of" like
i 'kind of" is called by authorities
on English IAN American provincial
jsm,' which means that it is used in
some parts of America and has been
used there for many years. Strictly
speaking, the two expressions, "sort
of" and kind of are not errors, but
certainly they are not in favor among
careful users of English, and should
be avoided. Especially is this true
when they become "sorter" and "kind-
er," as they are prone to become.
Then they are certainly vulgarisms, to
be avoided.
II felt sort of ILL.," or Il felt kind of
ILL.," we hear. 1t is better to say II
felt somewhat ILL., or II felt rather
ILL.,"
OF course, the word "sort" and the
word "kind" have legitimate uses, as
nouns, but in such cases the word
must be preceded by an article. Thus,
one may say, with propriety, II felt a
sort of Illness" or II felt a kind of
Illness"

Work Animals in Demand.

Pennsylvania and the states east
and north do not produce One-fourth
OF the work animals they use and are
constantly drawing on the Central
West for their work stock. Many of
these are farm chunks sold directly
to eastern farms, while others are

farms Of the Mississippi valley until
five or six years old, then passed to
eastern cities, where after six or eight
years of service they are rRsold las

ers, who sell them at q very nominal
figure to farming sections of New Eng
land, to work the balance Of their
days. Such horses represent a COM
plete cycle from farms to cities and
back to farms again. 1t is more true
now than in the past, that the good
horse or mule pays profit to the pro-
Queer, the dealer and ultimate user,
while the poor one loses money to al
concerned Exchange.
