Prof. Amandus johnson, of the
University of Pennsylvania, is In
Stockholm searching records to find
the original emigrants from Sweden
to the early American colonies. He
reports a thrilling race among des-
pendants of the early Delaware col
onies for the distinction of having
as ancestors the particular Swedes
who landed first. Natively the pro-
fessor declares that those families
which can prove their descent from
the immigrants of the sixteenth CEN
tury will form a new American aris-
tocracy of a vastly exclusive nature.
This contest for ancestral honors
has all, the material for Gilbert
and Sullivan opera. 1t has also the
sad spectacle Of people enriched by a
new world turning to the meanest
aspect OF the old one. One of the
chief motives which inspired the
Revolutionary fathers was the up
roofing Of that particular phase of
social idiocy. They did uproot it,
and turned their backs upon it, and
that is one of our best traditions.
The emigrant of to-day is an hon
orable ancestor of tomorrow as any
emigrant Of colonial days. The ar
istocracy of Pennsylvania, whose
blue blood is derived chiefly from
good gold dollars, had much better
spend those dollars to employ pro.
fessors for any of innumerable more
useful things they can do than dig
ging up emigration records to exal1
the vanity of their employers.

"BIddy" Has Lonu Pedigree.

The chicken, common barnyard
fowl, has a pedigree that has been
traced back to 700 B. c., when chick
ems were fiuttering about homes In
southern Asia, DR.. Clark Wissler,
noted anthropologist, says. Within a
comparatively short time. considering
lack of transportation and the great
distance, chickens appeared in Afri-
ca, Doctor Wissler says. Next they
appeared In Egypt, according to traces
found, and after this they became
scattered until they were more or
less common throughout the world.
