RING FINGER "NERvE" A MYTH.
Fhird>Disit Chosen for Band to Reduce
the Wear.

Why is the third finger Of the left
hand called the ring finger? inquiries
the New York Sun. A belief has been
handed down from medieval times
that the ring as a token Of love came
to be worn on this finger because a
nerve ran from it to the heart. For
their belief there is. Of course no foun-
datioa. If such nerve did exist it could
not serve any purpose.
A satisfactory explanation was sug-
gested by Macrobius and elaborated by
Salmuth in the 18th century. At first,
he says, rings Of iron were worn by
the Greeks and Romans on any finger
on either hand. Later when gold be-
came plentiful enough rings were worn
on the left hand for economy's sake,
right. When engraved gems and 9TH
er precious jewels were added to finger
rings it became the fashion to wear
them on the third finger for the reason
that in this situation they will be we'll
protected from wear. since the third
;inge" cannot be extended alone.
In ancient Rome gold was scarce and
only ambassad dors to foreign lands were
allowed to wear rings of the precious
metal. Later the privilege was extend
ed to senators and then to all citizens
of the equestrian order. When slaves
acquired their freedom in imperial
Rome they cast aside their iron rings
and wore gold as mark of their ad-
vance in station. Tacitus speaks Of
pcsenting d gold ring as synonymous
with making man gentleman.

DEAD TREES ARE
DRIVE OBJECTS
City Starts Campaign to
Eliminate Dangerous
Conditions.

A systematic inspection OF every
street in the city to discover and take
steps to eliminate dead and dangerous
trees was to be started by the special
service Of the city park department to-
day, George E. Morgan, head Of the
service announced. The crusade is ex-
pected to continue into next winter, since
Mr.. Morgan estimates there are approx
mateIy $500 such trees in the city.
Division Of the city into twenty three
districts for the campaign has been
made by the special service. Inspection
viii start in the Irvington district. Mr.
Morgan said the trees to be removed are
particularly numerous in Irvington and
the northwestern part OF the city.
Most Of the trees which need 70 be re-
moved for the public's safety are pop
lars, planted by real estate firms In new
additions because they grow quickly.
Hundreds Of such trees have passed their
best days and are in such a condition
that a high wind would blow them
across streets o. into houses, the special
service head stated. A comparatively
low wind would tear limbs from many
such trees, he added
In addition to trees that are standing,
the departments campaign viii include
the eradication Of tree stumps left above
the ground In violation Of a city ordi-
nance requiring such removals from the
public lawn spaces so that the stump is
cut at least six inches below the surface.
When the inspectors find q tree or
stump which should be removed on the
public lawn space the special service
VIII give the abutting property owner
ten days notice to remove them. Failure
to comply viii make the property owner
subject to a city ordinance which pro
ytdes a fine of not less than 81 nor
more than SIS. In case dangerous trees
are found on private premises. reports
VIII be turned over to the board Of public
safety for action under its power TO
eliminate such conditions.
THE cooperation Of citizens who viii
remove dead or dangerous trees without
notice from the department VIII be
greatly appreciated" said Mr.. Morgan.
1T should not be necessary for US to
issue a single order because the prop
erty owners should have enough civic
pride and regard for their own safety
and that of their neighbors and others
who use the streets and sidewalks to take
action on their own initiative"

utive COMMITTEES 1t is pointed out these
camps win afford most excellent vaca-
lions for the accepted men Although
there is to be military training, the
camps win be conducted on lines similar
to the camp at Plattsburg, N Y, before
the war. As there will be men and boys of
sll ages in the camps it has been decided
to segregate the men into groups OF like
ages.
This country must be prepared for
emergencies such as we faced IN the last
war" said a leading civic worker In In
dianapolis. Although we may never have
another war, the training received In
thirty days In one Of these camps will
be invaluable to the young generation.
Whenever employers ind their men go
ing to the camp need pocket money 1t is
hoped that 1t will be advanced. The
Government will pay all other expenses.
