transformed barn, does washing

THE WRONG TWIN. by Harry Leon

ComDanv)

SOHlpduy.I
The opening episode Of the twins
in the cemetery with the impish
Patricia whipple starts one of with
a chuckle. and the chuckles continue
from page to page while the Merle
twin struts of to be the chosen
heir of the whipples, leaving the
Wilbur twin to inglorious but lively
mediocrity. The whole picture of
real boy growing up in the small
metropolis OF Newbern is deftly and
cleverly drawn. When the war
creeps in, the chuckles somehow
cease, for II begins to read like the
usual stuff. But the war is over
shortly and Wilbur wanders home.
His reply when they ask him about
the war Is, 1T was an awful big
one" OF course in the end he
marries Patricia and settles down on
the whipple farm. 1t is a simple
tale of simple people told with
smile.

Sr HERE never was a better time
 than today for the girl or wom-
 an who wants to do well in business to make q success. The world needs constructive work It doesn't care who does it, provided the work is good. Women are picked for jobs that not long ago would certain ly have gone to men. In Washington, for instance, q girl has been made manager of the lunch room in the Treasury building. This restaurant serves lunches to 1000 government employees every day. The business detail of running such place is great and only a trained woman could un- dertake it. But Miss Dorothy Chap man is trained having been graduat- ed in home economies at Cornell uni- versity, one of large class. And these trained women will find the field ready for them.
 There are other ways for women who have taken special training in do- nestle science to make money One such woman serves box lunches to office workers i'll one of the big city office buildings These lunches are put up at different prices. three grades, each containing a balanced ra- tion, excellent food, well-prepared and daintily served in it's white box.
 There is certainly an opportunity to use this idea at railway stations. The thing is to be the first in the field at the chosen center.
 Honest value and sound methods are what are needed-and training Train Ing is by no means college career or work in business school, though these are fine things to have. Train ing can be self-acquired if you really want it.

ERNESTINE.

T.FRNESTINE has an origin of lofty E dignity. She is one of the Eagle"
 names. Like many of the fem mine names connected with mythol- ogy, the eagle occupied position of great respect and even adoration among the ancients, and his name, with various suffixes and prefixes, fur nished many of the cognomens then in vogue.
 In Scotland the word for eagle was ''erne" and the name was found in all countries where there were mountains, the homeland of the king of birds. Arnridur, or Arneidur, was the first of the eagle ladies. She was said to be the daughter of Asbiorn, of the Hebrides, who was sold to an Ice lander named Katell Thymr This lady had the good fortune to find q quantity of silver sufficient for her ransom beneath the roots of tree, but she decided to remain the wife of Thymr and goes down in history as one of the famous women Of Iceland.
 The next step in the evolution of 1IuCSt4AC NdS <1l anu idICA ALI nora, who was the wife of Bernard de St. Valeyr. Her name was carried in to the family of Braose by King Johns victim, Maude de St. Valery, who called one of her daughters Annora.
 The masculine Ernesto, which pre- ceded Ernestine directly, appeared first in Lombardy In the year 752, through Markgraif of Austria Ernst spread all over Germany after the Ref ormation. and it was Germany which finally formed the feminine Ernestine. Though still in great vogue there, it has of late years been contracted to Stine, or Tine, or sometimes Erna.
 Bohemia calls her by elaborate Ar nostinka, but England and America took her over as Ernestine, and pre- serves her as such.
 The moonstone is Ernestines tails manic gem. It is said to bring her good fortune and good health and + particularly lucky for lovers who, olf legend insists, may read the future in it's depths. Sunday is her lucky da! and her lucky number. Yellow is said to be her color.

WHAT CHILDREN READ

n E0PLE would not worry so much
 about what they call the modern
 child if they only stopped to think that fathers and mothers, un- cles and aunts, of every generation had their doubts as to the new genera ton.
 In fact, Adam and Eve were, in all probability, the only proud parents in all history who never said, Children did not do such things when we were young.
 The very latest discovery that has been made about the little boys and girls of America is that their taste in reading Is quite different from that of their elders at the same age.
 It appears that they are finding rather dull some of the things that appealed to the youngsters of former days, and are demanding more excite ment than is good for them.
 It is well, in thinking about such subject, always to remember that older people have a weakness for consider ing any such change in taste as for the worse.
 That is the compliment that matur- ity pays to itself.
 The great trouble is that we don't remember what we really cared for when we were small.
 Many of the things that we were supposed to enjoy we didn't really like until We grew up. Others that were forced on us for our good were spoiled for Us forever.
 Children have no sense of subtlety, or irony. This is natural.
 They read Alice in Wonderland" or "GulliYer's Travels" or "The Ara bian Nights for the straight story, not for any secondary meaning that is beyond them.
 A clever American woman suggests that the children, especially in big family, should be encouraged to write stories of wild adventure for each other.
 This is not 50 impossible or far fetched as It seems. A good example came to light re- gently in the case of the children of Theodore Roosevelt.

THE CONTEST.

NLD age complains when Winter o reigns.
 But youth runs out to play And finds in storms a thing that
 warns
 Its pulses all the way It is the contest so intense With Winters angry elements. The weak perspire beside the fire And shiver with the cold; The sturdy go to meet the snow With hearts increasing bold With hearts made stronger by the
 gale, Whatever arrows may assail. The timid groan, the timid moan, When troubles cloud the sky; The brave go out and do not doubt, Unfriendly fate defy, And find each contest brayely met Makes each contestant brayer yet. When thunders roll before your goal, What will your answer be? Will you go forth to face the north, Or from the mortimer flee? Does Winter drive you to your fire, Or each new storm new strength
 inspire?

HARDING MEETS
RAILROAD CHIEF
(sy Assocla,ed press.l

MARION, Ohio, Jan. 4.--W. N. Doak
vice-p president of the Brotherhood OF
Railway Trainmen, came to Marion
today at the request of President
elect Harding and discussed with him
the general problem of railways and
railroad labor.
Whether specific policies were talked
over was not revealed, but Mr.. Doak
said he expected to return later for a
more exhaustive discussion of certain
subjects taken up today in a prelim-
mary way. He expressed the opinion
that Mr.. Harding's attitude toward
labor was a sympathetic one and that
railway labor questions would not be
found difficult under the next ad-
ministration.
Special significance was attached to
the conference because of Mr.. Hard
ing's vigorous utterances during the
campaign in support of the Esch-
Cummins railway law which many
leaders of railroad employees opposed.
Mr.. Doak would not signify whether
the subject was covered in his TAX with
the president elect, but said there was
no discussion of possible selections for
secretary of labor and no detailed ex-
change of opinions on the open and
closed shop questions.

BRAMLETT CASE
NEARLY FINISHED

GREENVILLE, S. c., Jan. AFTER
the examination of eight witnesses the
state closed its case today in the trial
of Hugh T. Bramlett on trial nero
charged with the murder of his moth
er-in-law, Mrs. Lou Ntzhugh,, in June
1919. Before the evening recess the
defense got well under way with its
testimony. The principal witness for
the state was Miss Peola McHugh,
sister-in law OF the accused, who was
shot and wounded at the same time
Bramlett fatally wounded Mrs. Nc
Hugh.
For the defense, Mrs. Lou Bram-
lett, aged mother of the defendant,
told the story of her sons life with
emphasis upon which she declared to
be the arrangement of his mind prior
to the shooting. The defense makes
the plea that Bramlett was suffering
from a form of monomania resulting
from alleged interference in his do
nestle affairs by his wife's relatives.
