Yet they are virtually the same name.

Ireland, being brought to Scotland as

and medieval clerical Latin influences.
developing, respectively, into tho
foregoing forms of family names.
The name Of Fergus figures promi-
nently in the Gaelic myths. legends
and history of the pre-Christian era
But the spelling Fearghus is closer
the old Irish alphabet
About the period 200 A. D., before
Ireland became Christianized. there
was a great exodus of expeditions of
conquest and colonization from the
north OF Ireland to Scotland The
Irish clans which settled in Scotland,
or Alba. as they called 1t then, were
the progenitors OF the present Gaelic
portion of the Scottish race, for the
most part Highlanders.
This name. which was compounded
of two Gaelic words, with mean
ing of manly deed" developed in
many instances, from which the Lat
inized version Farquhardus was
taken. later being shortened into
FarQuhar.
The addition Of the Anglo-saxon
ending "son" to the Celtic name
Fergus "a much more common mix
ture of tongues in Scotland than in
Ireland) Of course produced the fam
lily name of Ferguson.

NEW GAME INTRODUCED.
THE girls at Western High School
who are interested in athletics
are most enthusiastic about a
new game which Miss Belle Meyers
has introduced. So much action is
necessary to participate in this game
that when some of the girls first saw
a group playing it they anxiously in
quired of their popular athletic coach
If it was foot ball that the girls were
playing. 1t is very liable to be re-
noses and dirty fronts to MILDLY
blouses. but it's great game-ac-
Cording to what they say.
They call it cage ball. and it is the
solution to the problem of an over
crowded gymnasium with the large
classes that Miss Meyers has turn out
for practice and the comparatively
small dimensions Of the gymnasium.
Cage ball is a game which can be
played by any number of girls at one
time. The principal idea OF the game
is to cage the ball in baskets sus-
pended at either end Of the field. The
ball Is three feet in diameter and is
very light. 1t is the intention to keep
it in the air continually during the
game, but sometimes even the best in
tentions go awry. The supreme joy of
the game and the thing that seems to
captivate most of the fair young play
ers is the absolute lack of any rule
against grabbing. showing or snatch
ing the ball.
1t is claimed that the game was
launched most successfully by the
boys in the Navy, and proved to be a
good game on land as we'll as aboard
ship. Western is proud of having dis
covered this game. and intends to
make it one of the standard sports of
the school. The girls find it a very
satisfactory substitute for foot bali,
which. as yet. even in this day of
boisterous girlhood, Is not considered
ladylike enough to be comfortably en-
gagged in by the flappers Of Washing

have been four sensational trials in London, none of which has lasted in actuality more than three months from the time of the original arrest to the time of the final decision. Ronald True was sentenced to death and re- prieved less than three months after he murdered Gertrude Yates, despite the fact that his mother was a woman of title and there was plenty of money available for his defense. Horatio Bottomley was imprisoned in less than three months after the public prose cutOr charged him with misdemeanor in handling the accounts of the Vic- tory Bond Club. These two cases are fair examples of the expedition of the English courts, as contrasted with the long drawn-out Arbuckle case in the United States It is this sort of ex- petition which the United States Con gross will undoubtedly be asked to provide by creating wider powers in the judiciary.

BRITISH COURT METHODS ARE
 INVESTIGATED

LONDON, Aug 4.-American court procedure will be anglicized if the in- fluence of Chief Justice Taft bears any weight.
 The chief justice of the United States has spent long hours in the English courts, studying their meth ods of procedure and hearing cases, and the International News Service is authoritatively informed that he will return to the United States to recom- mend revised judicial legislation based on modified English judicial legisla- tion.
 The expedition of the British courts and the power of the judiciary to con trol. cases has impressed the chief justice, it is learned.
 Chief Justice Taft, it is understood, will make recommendations to the American Bar Association, which in turn will submit the recommendations to Congress, which will provide:
 1. That study be made of the English system of masters - officials who study the briefs prior to trial and settle all matters of judicial technical ity before the case comes to trial.
 2. That a study be made of the powers given to the judiciary to speed up litigation.
 3. That study be made of the pos sibility of revising the statutes, so that the power of determining meth ods of procedure may be placed in the hands of the judiciary, rather than provided by ineIastic statutes.
 TAFT IS IMPRESSED
 The chief justice, it is understood, is impressed with the English meth cd of placing confidence and power in the judiciary. with little attempt to place the judicial and legislative powers all in the hands of the legisla- tive body. The English parliament has little or no power over strictly judicial matters, whereas the Con- gross of the United States seeks to govern and control judicial procedure. Such control, it is argued. makes for legal delays and is partially respons- ible for the congestion now existent in the American courts.
