Wilson and its variations. as family

different sources. though If you trace
them all back into the dim misty ages
Of northern Europe. about the time Of
Christ or before. they all come to-
gether again in a single root vii"
This is word of strictly Teutonic
origin. with a meaning similar to that
of our will" today. But the ancient
inhabitants of the Baltic and North
sea shores used 1t in combination with
many other words in naming their
children. In such combinations 1t had
the meaning of "resolute." For in
stance. there was Willibald. or "reso-
lutte prince; Wilfred meant "resolute
peace: wildred. "resolute respect"
and Wilibert. 'resolute brightness. "
Wilhelm meant "resolute helmet" and
the name William. of course. is, SIM
ply the modern form of that name
When the AngloSaxons invaded
Britain, after the withdrawal of the
itants before them into Wales. they
brought the many variations of this
name with them.
Anglo-Saxon England was full of
wills. for they almost invariably
shortened their names; so Wilson may
have developed from any of the wills.

them. There is no doubt about Will

trance in the heart of the Old Briar-
patch. The other entrance would be
likely to be seen only by the sharpest
eyes Yet this was to be the main
entrance.
At last the work was all done. No
more sand was thrown out at the
entrance in the middle of the Briar-
patch. Johnny Chuck disappeared in
side and, though Peter sat around for
long time, he saw no more Of
Johnny.
The Chuck family must be taking
a rest down inside" muttered Peter
10 himself II should think they
would want to- My. wouldn't work
the way they work for anything in
the world You know Peter isn't
at all fond of work
BY and by he grew tired of sitting
around and hoped over through one
of his private little paths to the edge
of the Old Briar-patch to get some
sweet clover on the Green Meadows
When he poked his head outside he
times. Then he hoped out and sat
up to stare at Johnny Chuck and
Polly Chuck and the four little
Chucks eating sweet clover out there
as fast as they could Peter was so
sure that they were down inside that
house that he had the hardest kind
of work to make himself believe that
he really saw what he did see. You
see he knew nothing about that new
doorway.
At last Peter found his tongue Hi.
Johnny Chuck he cried. How did
you get out here?"
Johnny looked up and grinned. Its
a secret" was all he said
Peter at once made up his mind
that he would find out that secret.
So he sat around and watched. but
by and by his stomach would no
decided that he might as well fill his
stomach while he watched. Now that
clover was very sweet and after Peter
had eaten a few leaves he forgot
everything else. He ate and ate as
fast as he could and forgot all about
up. The Chucks had disappeared.
Peter looked everywhere for them,
but he couldn't find them. Finally
he gave up and slowly hoped back
into the dear Old Briar-patch. He
went at once to the entrance to that
old house which the Chucks had
taken. There on the doorstep sat
Johnny Chuck. Once more Peter was
sadly puzzled.
At last Johnny Chuck took pity on
Peter and told him that they had a
secret doorway near the edge of the
Old Briar-patch. but would not tell
him just where. OF course Peter
went to hunt for it. After a long
search he found it. Then he under
stood. At once he hurried to tell
little Mrs. Peter
The Chucks have a ,secret door
way at the edge of the Old Briar-
patch" explained Peter. And 1
think they are going to use that al
together. l don't believe they will
bother US in the Old Briar-patch."
And in this Peter was right. So it
was that peace and happiness came
to the old Briar-patch.

when you see them sitting around
doing nothing, but when they have
something to do they do it without
waste of time. They were in hurry
to get that old house in the heart
of the dear Old iar-patch in order.
The heap of yellow sand which would
be the doorstep in the middle of the
Briar-patch grew surprisingly fast.
Peter Rabbit sat around looking on
and secretly glad that he didn't have
to work like that. There was just
one thing that worried Peter. 1t was
the fear that Johnny Chuck would
cut such big path through the
brambles to his doorstep that Reddy
Fox might get in the old ar-patch
in that way. But Peter need not have
worried. Neither Johnny nor Polly
Chuck had any idea of doing such
thing as that.
Polly was digging a long hall out
to the edge of The old Briar-patch
and behind a little bush she opened
the entrance to that hall. She made
1t just big enough for Johnny and
herself to pass through comforta bly,.

Boyle county farmers were ar

prohibition agents; Folk Critch-

H. Sanford, of Lancaster, at
Johnson's Bank, two miles south
of Parksville, and 10 miles from
Danville, on the alleged premises
of William Price. Seven hundred
gallons of mash were poured out
by the officials.
Will Wingate, of Junction CT
ty, Will Price, w. C. Brewer and
Alex Camden of the Parkville
neighborhood, were arrested on
a charge of conspiring to operate
a moonshine still. All pleaded
not guilty, except .Wingate, who
claimed to be the sole owner and
operator of the still.
The still was located in a hol-
low, about 400 yards from the
Price home, concealed behind
trees and bushes. All of the men
except Price, were watching the
still when the officers surprised
them. After the men had been
searched and had been lined up
to start to town, Wingate, Off
GERS say, picked up one of the
jars of moonshine on the ground
nearby and took two large drinks

was unconscious and had to be
carried into the jail. In his pre-

have recovered. He informed the

set it up, made the mash boxes
and was operating the plant by
himself. Trials were set for the

BOOTLEGCERS IN
RADIO BUSINESS, TOO
(By Associated Press)

Chicago, May "A new infant
industry, the manufacture OF RAJ
dio equipment, has sprung up
with an amazing growth within
year and much of it within a
few recent weeks. From few
manufacturing shops year ago
to thousands now, an increase of
sixty thousand per cent in de-
mand in two years, business in
which both boys and great man
ufacturers are taking profits; all
this is the romance of the new
industry.
The demand which called it in
to existence is at present as ire
mendous as it has been sudden.
The new, small concerns manu-
featuring radio supplies are esti-
mated by the Radio Corporation
of America as numbering thous-
ands. Figures of the same cor
poration show that whereas two
years ago 1900 tubes a year
were in demand, this year prob
ably 100000 tubes month will
be called for.
There are more bootleggers
in the radio business than in the
whisky business" one dealer as-l

parts and sell them for exorbi-
tant prices; have known a SIN
