Wonderful IlberalltyI

Passengers in one Of the sleeping
cars from Hot Springs were aroused
before daylight recently by the an
nouncement of one Of the passengers
that he had lost his 11-carat ruby
stickpin, which he asserted was worth
$4,000 or more.
On demand of the passenger a tele-
gram was sent to the st. Louis po-
lice. When policemen met the train
at Union station they were Informed
that the pin had been found by the
porter in an upper berth, few seats
from the lower which the Little Rock

mistake was his, and gave the porter
a quarter for finding the pin-St.

room for younger singers.

ISLANDERS ON MANY RACES
People Of Most Nations, az Matter
Of Fact, Are the Reverse Of
Their Reput ations.

The origin Of national slanders is q
mystery. Some one starts them, 9TH
ers continue them, and the rest Of us
accept them as gospel, and give them
further currency.
Englishmen are alleged to be super.
shy and reserved. Our life on an Ii.
land Is said to be responsible. Rub
bish! We have been, and are, the big
gest travellers of all nations, observes
writer in London Answers. If Eng
lishmen were shy and reserved they
wouldn't have been the pioneers In
colonization, empire building, conquest,
commerce, and the like.
AS matter Of fact, the average
Englishman Is supersociable, and II
any proof Of that Is needed 1t Is to be
found In the fact that this country Is,
par excellence, the home Of sport
Sport demands sociability. Imagine
q tennis boom among "super-shy, re-
served" people!
Scotsmen are alleged to be mean
unco' careful WI the bawbees. Thous-
ands of jokes have been built upon
that SANDER. But, as G. matter Of
fact, the Scot, as all who have had to
do with him know, Is extraordinarily
generous and kind-hearted. Ask the
treasurer of any hospital. There's.
the test.
The Irish are doubly slandered.
They are alleged to be a gay, witty
race, carefree and careless. This Is
slander. The Irish are sad people.
All their beautiful melodies are In
minor key. "Irish humor" doesn't
really exist. The Irish are really in
tensiyely serious. And as to being
"caraless," II 10 q tact that they are
thrifty, clean, and supermoral.
The French are supposed to be ir-
responsible and excitable. An obvious
slander, which the great war killed
or ought to have killed.
Then there is the "wily, unspeak-
able" Turk. For fact, he Is about
as simple as they make ,em! The
Dutch are alleged to be "stolid." and
all that the term implies. It's SLAM
der for the Dutch are very much all
there. The tale might be continued,
but the result would be the same,
whether dealing with the "cute" Yam
kee, the emotional" Welshman, the
'treacherous" Spanlard. Or the gay
Italian. Slanders ALI

by Elmer M. Roberts, chairman OF
the local board of selectmen. The

that the Henry Trip mentioned was
a brother of the late John Trip OF
kennebunk Landing. and of Charles
Trip, deceased, who lived at West
Kennebunk. Henry Trip went to
Mexico many years ago and his death
was reported from there about 1907.
If this is the same man spoken or IN
