 Langley was perfectly sober, the police said, and 8 considerable sun, of money on his person indicated that he had not been robbed. His clothing showed that he had not been struck by an automobile. He was unable 10 talk and police said they probably never would know the cause of the accident unless Langley recovered sufficiently to tell them.

Some of them serve aboard ship. A
larger part is stationed ashore. but
so trained and so organized as to
enable it to operate in close conjunc-

in recent times the public has become
accustomed to associate particularly
with this service is perhaps the eX-

of the world for the purpose of pro

Jour Last
name
is 1T ELMER?

THE first of the Elmers, Edward
4 came to this country in 1851 Oh
the Lion" as one of the congregation
of Rev. Thomas Hooker. He settled
in Hartford, Conn, where he was
killed by the Indians in 1876. One
of Edward Elmer's grandsons, Rev.
Daniel Elmer, was n of the three
graduates from Yale for the year 1713.
He settled in New Jersey in 1927.
Horace Elmer, one of his descend
ants, was a naval officer prominent in
the Spanish wal.
The name was originally Aylmer,
and one of the early members of the
family was chief baron of the ex-
chequer in 1885 in England. John
Elmer was bishop of London in 1868
and tutor of Lady Jane Gray.
Applegate-This is really a corrup-
ton of Applegarth, meaning apple or
chard. 1t was the name borne by a
parish in Dumfries, Scotland, and was
derived as a surname from this place.
Bagley-This is an Irish and Eng
1871 hdluCJ anu oiSiilliCu OllSllldlly Ollt
living at q rising ground. Thus 1t is
similar to the name Hill or Mount.
Noble-This Is one of the many sur
names that is derived from an adjec-
tive of personal description. I'm
doubtedly it was applied to one who
was of noble appearance rather than
because of nobility of rank.
Mulford-This is doubtless derived
from Milford, meaning residence
near a mill. 1t is sometimes spelled
Mullford and sometimes with one 'l'.
The first of the name here was Will
liam milford of Kent, England, who
settled in Salem, Mass, where he was
living in 1647. Later he removed to

where Jimmy lived, and then he rar
up to the farm so Mr.. Dog could get
sight at him and chase him.
1t all worked out as Mr.. Fox had
planned it until he let Mr.. Dog see
him, and then Mr.. Fox's plan did not
work just as he had expected, though
he led Mr.. Dog straight to the door

Jimmy vas sitting outside in the
sun, and when Mr.. Fox came bounding
along with Mr.. Dog at his heels Jimmy
was frightened and angry, as well. He
didn't care whether 1t vas Mr.. Fox
or Mr.. Dog who disturbed him. Just
to make sure, he punished both as they
dashed past by s%prinkling them with
his smelly fluid, which he carries for
protection.
Mr.. Dog did not go very far. He
stopped and rubbed his nose and then
dropped his tail and ran for home.

Fox through the woods.

stay away from here. We shan't be
bothered with him again"
