In every Lutheran church in the
world yesterday there were services OF
thanksgiving for Luther's stand at
Worms.
An interesting feature Of the observ-
ance was that which took place In
homes. At the request Of the National
Lutheran Council, those who were un-
able to attend the Thanksgiving services
engaged in reading the Scriptures and
in meditation, at 4 o'clock, the hour
when luther was first summoned before
the Diet.
This first summons took place on
April II, 1921. It was on April is.
1921, that Luther issued his memorable
defiance to the Emperor and ecclesias-
tics.
Every Lutheran minister preached a
sermon yesterday upon Luther = insist
ence upon the Scriptures as final au.
thority in faith and conduct and secured
religious and civil liberty to mankind.

Can woman's tongue depreciate
property values?
This is one of the questions which
n Montgomery county jury may soon
be called upon to determine in connec-
ton with charges against Mrs. Mary
Keen. of Crestmont.
Mrs. Keen was arrested charged
with being common scold and pub
licF nuisance. She was held under $500
bail by Magistrate Williams at Abing-
ton. and It was said today that the
trouble is not over yet.
The woman was arrested on war
rant sworn out by Lawrence Wacher.
According to Mrs. Keen. who keeps a
sharp eye on her property, WaCher' :
chickens ran on her property and
picked it full of holes. When she
shooed the chickens back she said
wacher called her names that
wouldn't look good in print.

This was denied by Wacher. Incl
dentally he brought forth several wit
nesses whose testimony indicated Mrs
Keen was not as mild and meek as she
appeared.
u. J. Bickings. n builder. said: "It's
my honest belief that this woman's ac
tions depreciate property values in this
section. I personally would not want
TO live near her." II. Lcister. a neigh
Dor of the defendants. said that Mrs.
Keen kept close watch on all affairs
Of the Leister household.
And SO Magistrate Williams thought
that a prima facie case had been estab
lished and Mrs. Keen was allowed to
sign her own bail bond.
But Mrs. Keen was not distressed. 81

FLINY CREDITED WITH YARN
ted Remarkable Story Concern
ing Habits of Tiger.

According 70 pliny, when hunter
wished to catch tiger cubs he must be
provided with II very fleet horse, and
have another In reserve. "Whcn the
ii@rcSS finds her lair empty she darts
forth and tracks them by the. smell.
When she comes up to the hunter he
throws one of the WheipS To her, with
which she returns to her lair. Then she
PUSHES back, and he throws another To
her: and this goes on TIL he reaches
his ship"
Equally interesting Is the account I'm
the ''rhySiologus" which explains that
"the hart desreth the water brooks"
because it had been inhaling the breath
of dragons. SO having filled It's stom-
ach from the brook, II browns the
dragon ont of its hole and Stays ii with
its anllers.
Unicorns seem to have given much
trouble in those days, and were eNter-
minated in most unSportSlnanlike
fashion. THE hunters place a virgin
near the spot where the unicorn has its
abode. The unicorn, seeing her runs
and places its head in her lap doing
her no HARM This very natural ac-
tion proves hi-undOing, for "then com
eth the hunter and killeth it,"
Here is the reverse of the picture:
"But if she be not a pure maid the uni
corn will not sleep, but killeth her"

SNAKES ONCE WERE LIZARDS

# Evolution.

Northumberland that word in
Guides almost all modern SCIENTISTS
declare the snake, as we know it today,
is merely the offspring of the lizard.
The family is traced back hundreds of
thousands of years to time wher one

Among the species was one with very
short legs AS he numbered along over

tening his belly to the ground and
working his ribs that the leverage thus
gained helped him along faster.
lie catne to depend more and more
upon this method of movement and
nature took its usual course in elm
mating organs or limbs not in use.
The low lizard lost its legs and be-
came crawler. : AS the centuries
passed natural selection left these with
long bodies, as they could move faster
than the ones with the short bodies,
and therefore the breeding soon be-
came matter of length until the
snake as we know it today resulted.
Another species remained in the wa
ter great deal but crawled about the
bottom, and from that came something
that we would today call a sea ser
pent, creature about As or so feet
long. with wide and tooth-armed jaws.
