psnmark,s Alphabetical War.

There is a battle Of the big and lit
tie letters now raging IN Denmark.
The Danish language, like the Ger
man, has hitherto adhered to the Mid
dle-age practice of spelling Its nouns
with capital letters, but a progressive
movement Of growing strength de-
mands the substitution Of the little
letters in conformity with English,
French and other languages. The de-
mand has aroused the fury Of the con-
servatlve elements.
Now Minister OF Education Appel
has determined to introduce the small
letter practice in the schools. AS in
the Bolshevist reform Of the Russian
photography and the Bulgarian
changes, the big letter and the small
letter have become symbols Of political
opinion.

Announcement of the engagement of
Miss Elsie Leonore Wooleyhan, a
member of the New Castle High
School faculty, to Herman Wayne
Stradley, of Cecilton, Md, was made
by her mother Mrs.Annabelle Wooley-
han, at dinner given at her home in
Cecilton, Md, Wednesday. Miss
Wooleyhan is a graduate of the Wo-
mems College of Delaware, class 1922,
and has taught in the New Castle
High School the past two years. She
is one of the most popular teachers
of recent years among the student
body, as we'll as the younger social
set of that town. Owing to the fact
that Miss Wooleyhan has just started
work for her masters degree and Mr..
Stradley having not yet completed his
work for the electrical engineers de-
gree, the date of the wedding has not
been fixed.

Swallows obey Whistle.

An expert in bird lore has been max
ing a study Of the peculiar actions Of
several hundreds Of chimney swallows
that make their home in the tall chin
ney of a paper mill in Oneca, Conn.
He has discovered that at exactly 6
o'clock each morning, when the whistle
blows at mill three miles away the
hundreds OF swallows rise from the
chimney and fly away to their daily
hunting grounds just as promptly as
the hundreds Of human workers an
swer the whistle. For two months, he
says. they have not been absent or
tardy. At night the birds return in
small groups.

presented by the defense paid be-
fore her death by Mr.. Ellis and doc
tors bills and hospital bill paid aft
err her death. The plaintiff, Mr.. Mer-
rill, in his argument stated that
they were not trying to collect for
services before the bankruptcy but
that the period of "a IL weeks did
not include all of the time since up
to her death.
Each attorney argued about a
half hour and Judge Sturgis in
about Is minutes directed the jurors
concerning the law. The jury was
out an hour and returned verdict
for the defendent.
Late Tuesday forenoon, the case
of Harold w. Prince OF Detroit and
William E. Russell of Pittsfield VS..
Bracket, Shaw & Lunt, Co.. or
Somersworth. N. H., was opened.

Pattangall, Locke and Perkins or
Augusta. Mr.. Locke acting. In this
case action is brought In a writ dat
ed Dec. Z, 1922. The plaintiffs have
three accounts in the case. In the
first two they claim deceit or fraud
and in the third negligence to
which the defense replied that they
are not guilty of the deceit charged
in the first two and that the negli-
gence charged in the third was not
on the part of the defendant put
rather on the part of the. plaintiffs.
Attorney Shumway read the de-
claration and opened the case. lie
read the contract and letter from Z.
c. Waterman, salesagent of the COM
pany which were offered as the
plaintiffs exhibit, two and one. The
plaintiffs claim defeat in the sale CT

sene engine which the plaintiffs were
to pay S1,720 and which Bracket,
Shaw & Lunt Co.. through their
sales agent &C. Waterman of Ban
gor sold to Prince and Russell.
The plaintiffs claimed that the en-
CINE never did the work that the
company said it would and that they
were never able to saw as much
lumber and it was very expensive
to operate. At the time of the pur-
chase of the engine one of the pr1n-
cipal things claimed by the COM
pany's agent, was that this engine
eliminated much of the danger from
fire. On Oct. Z, 1922, in the morning
when Prince dllu ItuoSCAL "CiO 6SS-
ting ready for a days work, a flash
of fire came out from the carbura-
tor and in a very short time the mill.

and raw material and other property
burned, causing damage for
which suit in the sum of $4,000 Is
brought in this action.
At the opening of the afternoon
session. eight were called by the
plaintiffs. The first witness to testify
was Mr.. Prince. Soon after his tes-
timony was begun, questions of law
arose and after controversy be-
tween the attorneys and judge the
jurors were retired to their cham
Der and Judge Sturgis and the at
torneys went to the law library for
reference and conference for about
an hour.
The remainder OF the afternoon
session was taken up with Mr..
Prince testimony. The case will be
resumed this morning at the OPEN
ing of court at 8 o'clock.
