right on digging, for he knew Woody

WOODDY's BATTLE

r TITLE WOODY CHUCK found
- himself one day all alone in the
big world, for his mother had put him,
with his brothers and sisters, out of
their home, and told them they must
look out for themselves.
Mrs. Woodchuck is not a very low
ing mother-not at all like Mrs. Fox,
who takes the greatest care of her
children, or Mrs. Possum, who often
is bringing up two families at the
same time.
And so it happened that little Wood
dy Chuck found himself looking for a
home one day when he was quite
young.
He was not at all afraid because he
had never seen a dog or a gun; so he
hunted around and found a place to
make a new home. Now, wood
chucks are not very hard working ami
mails; so, when Woody had finished
his home he went inside and stayed
until the next day, when the sun was
nice and warm, for woodchucks are
very fond of summing themselves.
For long time Woody Chuck
thought the world was a very nice
place. The garden was near, and OF
course he thought all the vegetables
were grown for his use; so he ate all
he wanted.
But one day he had a rude awaken
ing, for Mr.. Dog saw him, and after
him he ran: but as Woody is good
runner, he easily reached his home
ahead of Mr.. Dog and turned around

VIVIAN
Copyright.

THE charming name of Vivian is al
\ most the equivalent of the adjec-
tive "vivacious." It means lively, hav-
ing been derived from the Latin vita
signifyfng life, md was used by the
Roman Christians to express their
hopes OF eternity.
The first feminine name formed
from vita is Viva, a name made IA
nous by Viva Perpetua, the noble
young matron of Carthage, whose
martyrdom is one of the most touch
ing histories of the early church. Her
many votaresses gave vogue to her
name.
In later Roman days Viviana came
to be popular through a Christian
maiden of that name who was put to
death by a Roman governor on the
charge that she had destroyed the
sight of one of his eyes by magic.
Much later a church was erected over
her remains. Her fame and name lin
gered, and appears prominently again
in "Morte d'Arthur' when Vivianna is
the enchantress of King Arthur's
court
Scotland took yer the name of
Vivian, applying it as both mascu-
line and feminine name. France adopt
ed the masculine form as Vivien aud
straightway formed the now-popular
feminine Vivienne. England has al
ways favored Vivian and America re-
ceived and popularized the name IN
der that spelling. Viviana is the IA
vored form in Spain and Italy, the lat
ter country still employing the early
Roman VIVA
Viviams talismanic gem is the life
giving ruby. It's inextinguishable flame
promises her dauntless courage, bodily
health and strength, and dispels evil
spirits. To dream of it signifies uneX-
pected guests. Friday is her lucky day
and three her lucky number. The lily,
signifying purity, is her flower.

HE ROMANCE on WORDS
"JUBiLEE"

n HOUGH q number Of ety.
4 mologists maintain that this
word is derived from the Latin
jubilare, to shout for joy, it's
pedigree really antedates the
birth of the Latin language,
going back to the Hebrew, where
we find the word yobel, mean
ing literally the blast of a
trumpet, and by extension. the
year of jubilation which was an
nounced by this trumpet.
According to the law in Levitt
icus %, this was an epoch
of general restoration and
emancipation, celebrated every
fifty years, when liberty was to
be proclaimed throughout the
land with the blowing of trum-
pets in the synagogue. During
this jubilee year the land was
not titled, all lands that had
been sold were returned to their
original owners or their heirs,
and all bondsmen of Hebrew
blood were liberated.
The Christian church adopted
the term from the Jewish, and
in turn, a number Of secular gov
ernments took up the idea, the
jubnees of George III and
Queen Victoria being two of the
most famous in modern history.

the passage of the Alexander Hamil-

THE WEDDING

"a thing of custom-'tis no other
Shakespeare.
CT AM about to be married." is the
4 way one correspondent starts her
query, "but we have not announced
our engagement, as we wish to give
our friends a genuine surprise. We are
going to slip off some day soon and get
married, but want to send wedding
cards VIII you kindly tell me how
they should be worded?"
To begin with, do not attempt any
thing original or informal. It is quite
all right to announce an engagement in
en- original way, but the wedding an
nouncement should be entirely formal.
In most cases the announcements
should be sent out in the name of the
brides parents, or those who stand in
the place Of a parent in case the bride
Is an orphan, or an aunt, uncle or
grandparent. If possible have these
announcements engraved and send
them out the day of the marriage as
soon as it is over. Have all envelopes
addressed and stamped and ready to
send out directly All announcements
should be sent at exactly the same
time. Here is the usual form:
Mr.. and Mrs John Brown
have the honor to announce
the marriage of their daughter
Anne
to
Mr. James Smith Jones
ON Thursday, May the eighth
nineteen hundred and twenty-five
at ST. Thomas church
New York.
IF it is a grandparent, sister or broth
or whose name need not be the same
as the bride, then in place of the single
word Anne, on the fourth line should
he inserted Miss Anne Brown"
In the unusual event that the con-
tracing persons have no near relatives
to send these announcements they may
Gend an announcement worded thus:
Mr.. James Smith Jones
and
Miss Anne Brown
have the honor to announce
their marriage
on Thursday, May the eighth
etc.
If you do not feel that you can af-
ford engraved announcements the best
thing to do would be to write letters
on the day of the wedding, to be post
ed Immediately afterwards, telling
your nearest friends Of the event, but

Martial Law Ends
In Mingo County

Charleston, w. Va.-Gov. Morgan
has ended martial law in Mingo
county after that county is "broke"
and large sums have been drawn from
the state treasury. The union miners
in their tent colony are as determined
as ever.
The public press made no comment
on the governors proclamation, which
ended martial law. When martial
law was established, the press treated
it in the most sensational manner pos
sible.
The reason for this changed at
titude, says the West Virginia Fed
erationist, is because the vicious
system "has been repudiated by the
courts of that county-its work
thrown out of court, and there is
nothing left for it's sponsors to do
but silently fold up their tents and
sneak out like a thief in the night.
So ends another disgraceful chapter
in West Virginia's government by the
coal owners"
While martial law was operating
in Mingo county that section was in
the hands of anarchists who were
paid by the state and who denied con-
stitutional rights to citizens of West
Virginia. Large numbers of workers
were thrown in Jail on faxed charges,
which the courts refused to sustain.

Miners Out of Work
100 Days a Year

Cleveland - Speaking before the
American mining congress j. G.
Bradley, former president of the ma
tional coal association, terrified his
audience by the alleged losses to
miners, coal owners and the public
because of the coal strike.
According to Mr.. Bradley the loss
in wages, as estimated by the Ameri-
can educational association, is $780,
100000.
These figures would be approx
mately correct if the miner worked
800 days a year, but this he never
does. Even in years when he is work
ing under an agreement he is locked
out between three and four months
in the year. The industry, rather
than the employer, is responsible for
this lockout because there are too
manv mines operating for the de-
mand. This necessitates layOffs,
which vary in different sections, but
rarely does the miner exceed zoo
working days year.
No statistics on wage losses because
of coal strikes have any value if not
based on the fact that every miner in
the United States is idle between
three and four months annually. The
only difference between this situation
and a general strike is that in the
latter case the idleness all occurs at
the same time, while in the former
case it is spread throughout the year

How War PrOfiteerS
Stole $2,15O,0OO, $1,000

Washington - One of the most
sordid stories of war profteering is
contained in reports turned over to
the department of justice by the Aero
club of America, which charges that
the governments air craft board and
manufacturers of air craft acted in
collusion and robbed the government
of more than $2,150,000,O00 since
1917.
1t is alleged that manufacturers
were on the "inside," and that they
knew of the armistice before it was
announced. These men, who were in
Paris at the time, arranged with their
confederates in Washington to have
large contracts awarded them by the
air craft board. Later, when the con-
tracts were annulled by the govern
ment because of the armistice, the
manufacturers collected large sums
from the government as "liquidated
awards"

Don't Practice
What He breaches

Chicago-Judge Gary of the steel
trust recently declared in favor of the
doctrine of a square deal" and that
1--WE should treat our neighbors right
and our employees right"
Which causes the Chicago Tribune
to ask Mr.. Gary how he can reconcile
these high ideals with the 12-hour
day in his steel plants and why does
he maintain and defend the "Pitts-
burgh plus" practice which takes an
annual toll of $75,000,0O0 from the
middle west?
Under the pittsburgh plus" system
the trust forces every steel manu-
facturer to add freight charges from
Pittsburgh to his mill on every ton
of steel he sells. This puts the trust
mills on an equal footing with mills
more nearly located to the iron ore
beds of Minnesota and Alabama. As
the trust controls this iron ore, it can
enforce it's edict.
The Tribune rudely skaters Mr.
Gary's "jolly" by comparing his ideal
istic professions before a banquet
table with his hard-fisted practice in
real life.
