In every hamlet, village and town in the dis trict Judge Woodrum's voice has been heard in song, His opponent, Repre- sentative Woods. the incumbent, has appealed to the electorate on his ex- perience as a legislator what he terms Judge Woodrum's lack of eX- perience.
 In a recent campaign speech, Rep resentative Woods was quoted as say ing:

Custom Of Applying Christian and Sur.

!: : Long Used. =.

The principal sources from which
eurnames are derived are personal
characteristics, rank or profession, To-
calities, animals or natural objects, or
patronymics. Surnames In many Ian
guages are derived from the same
sources. Thus, Black, White, Brown
are with the Germans Schwartz, Weiss,
Braugh; with the French, Lenoir, Le-
blanc, Lebrun. The Gaelic prefix Mac,
the Irish O., the Norman-French Fitch,
the German affix -shon or son, the
Scandinavian sen, the Russian witch,
are all equivalents Of the English affix
son.

any degree Of certainty when the sys-
tenn Of having one name for the indi-
vidual (Christian or baptismal name)
Joined to a second name which Is COM
mon to the family to which he belongs
(surname) was adopted.
Compounds in names were often the
result of applying sobriquet to a
Christian name-fer instance, Little
John or Micklejohn.
In most nations the wife changes
her surname on marriage to that of her
husband. In Spain, however, she re-
tains it, while the son may adopt either
the maternal or paternal name.

STUDY LOCAL CONDITIONS
~: BABSON ADVISES

IF your products are consumers goods
THAT is, bought by the general public
rather than any particular group or in
dustry-it is safe to say that your market
ing plan should be built, for the CITY as
a unit, says Roger w. Babson, the we'll
known statistician in Forbes Magazine.
T.. IF you are in the retail business, OBJ
viously you must operate on this unit;
but if you are doing national business
you can readily increase your sales ef-
ficiently by following the same plan.
"Conditions are not alike in any two
cities at one time, and sales possibilities
in adjoining localities may differ by as
wide a margin as so to go per cent. It is
ridiculous to assume that the campaign
designed to sell the county as whole,
will be 100 per cent productive in each of
these various communities under all of
these different circumstances. It is safe
to saw that the sales can be increased 10
to 80 per cent on every dollar you spend
in advertising and sales effort, if you will
take the trouble to study each city and
fit your plans to local conditions whatev-
err they may be-.
"Many business concerns will not take
the trouble to get this knowled ge. They
are governed as the old-fashioned one
cylinder gasolene engine was governed
by the "hit or MISS method. This will not
be admitted by some sales managers, ad-
vertising men, and credit men who claim
they are not operating by luck and chance
but by intuition.
Intuition is wonderful thing-when
it works. have great respect for it
When it works. But it doesn't always work
Intuition is what prompts hen to sit on
china eggs as enthusiastically as on the real
article. Intuition is what tempts the set
ter pup to point at the partridge cage. In
tuition is what leads many business men
into the embrace of the receiver.

LONDON BELIEVES

The Port of London authority describes
the new plans for improving the Thames
channel and several of the great docks.
4 In the official report it is stated that this
is, "a bid for the American grain trade
when the stuff can be brought by way of
the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence"
The report says that business men of
London have such implicit faith in the
feasibility of the project and the determi-
nation of the people in the middle west to
carry it out that they are planning a de-
velopment in which they propose to invest
about 100000 pounds sterling.
