This year the suit has come back. In

Birth Rate of France increases.

Vital statistics show that the birth
rate increased In France in 1920. At
Marseilles, for the first time in years,
the number of births greatly exceed
ed the number of deaths. At Chalon-
sur-Soane total of births for the year
was $50 and that of deaths 500 only,
whereas the figures for 1919 had been !:
Births, 400, and deaths, 571. In Tou-
Ion the number of births exceeded by
11S that of deaths, something that has
not happened in 80 years. From Or
leans satisfactory figures have also
been communicated, and at Dieppe the
number of births exceeded by 80 per
cent the number Of deaths.

An Airplane Brake.

The newest idea for airplane wheels
is to mount upon the periphery of each
wheel a number of little wheels.
This arrangement, says the Popular
Science Monthly, helps to retard the
forward motion of the flying machine
on making a landing. The little
wheels, brought SUCCESSFULLY into po-
sition by the force of impact, tend
to check the plane and bring it to
a quick and smooth stop.

Soto sailed up the Mississippi. In 1882
La Sale descended the Mississippi
and took possession Of the entire val
ley in the name Of the French king,
Louis XIV. In his honor this region
was named Louisiana. French colonies
soon sprang up, including New Or
leans, which was founded In 171S.
An interesting chapter of Louisiana
was the formation of the Company Of
the West by financial schemer named
John Law. This company ostensibly
was to exploit the new colony and
held out to spectators an alluring get
rich-quick scheme. But the golden
dreams were soon disturbed by the
many difficulties the colonists expert
enced, and France suddenly awoke to
the fact that the Mississippi Bubble
had burst. A panic followed and Law,
penniless, was driven from the coun-
try.
In 1853 France ceded Louisiana
east of the Mississippi to England,
and, by secret treaty, New Orleans
and the western territory went to
Spain. Spanish rule proved unendur-
able to the Inhabitants and the restric-
tons over the navigation of the Mis-
sissippi led to hostilities between the
northern American settlements and
Spain. This situation, however, was
brought to a peaceful termination by
Spain relinQuishing her rights to this
territory to France and the purchase
in 1908 by the United States from
France of the entire Louisiana terri
tory.
The southern portion of this Acqui-
sition was organized as the territory
Of Orleans and in 1872 was admitted
as the eighteenth state of the Union,
with an area of 4s.506 square miles.
AS the Louisiana coat-of-arms has q
pelican in its center, the state is often
called the Pelican State.

the voyage of De Soto up the Mis-

from Canada, considered this territory
theirs. AS for England, she rested her
claims on the discovery of North
America by the Cabots, and In the

ter long period of warfare, in which
the Indians played a leading part, the
Northwest Territory was finally ceded
to the United States by the Treaty of
independence in 1888. And Virginia
to portions Of this region turned over
their rights to the federal govern
ment.
The government of the Northwest
Territory was formally created by the
ordinance of 1887. People from the
East migrated into this territory In
such numbers that by 1903 Ohio was
taken into the Union as the seven
teenth state. The fourth largest state

how densely 1t is populated. 1t is
noted as the state of Presidents.

The name Ohio is derived from the
Iroquois word O-hee-yo, meaning
beautiful river" 1t was first applied
by the Indians of the Five Nations
to what we now call the Allegheny
river, one of the chief tributaries of
the Ohio. Gradually the name came to
include the whole river, sometimes
even being applied to the Mississippi.
Later it was confined to the river be-
tween Pittsburgh and Cairo, and ap-
prOpriately the first state formed on
its northern bank was named after
it. Ohio is often called the Buckeye
State from its large number of horse
chestnut trees.
