Lone Wolf Bandit Gets $4,000

Minot, N. D.-Every patrolman and
detective of the police force here was
pressed into service to seek the "lone
wolf," the mysterious robber, who
climaxed a series of pilefrings by
$4,000 robbery. So silently the lone
wolf worked that police admitted they
are virtually without clue. Working
without explosives and using crude
tools which bore no identity mark Of
company or firm, the criminal shows
no apparent regard for locked doors.

BUYING METHOD LAUDED.
"Hand-to-M Mouth" Plan Has Strong
Advantages.

Lamentation over hand to

been justified by business In 1925.
If "hand-to- mouth" buying, says the
Magazine of Wall Street, has placed
business men in a better financial
condition, 1t is preferable to heavy
inventory stocking-up. accompanied
by lonS-term accommodation. As a
matter of fact, hand to- mouth"
buying has led TO the cheapening OF
credit; 1t ultimately has also been
great factor in stimulating gross
volume of business.
Apparently, ii has been one of The

Distorp of Dour Same
BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOWLAN.
RAMSEY.
RACIAL ORIGIN-Enslish.
SOURCE-A locality.

Ramsey is one of those English
names which are distinctly Anglo
Saxon, in distinction from those which
are Norma n French. Still it does not
follow that all who bore it in the first
place were SaXonS. A name of this
sort gives little or no clue to the race
of those who first used il, because It
was a place name before 1t became a
family name, and the Normans, when
they spread their sway over EnEla nd
saw no reason for remaining the 10,
cality.
Like all family names derived from
place names, it's first general use was
to indicate the place from which :
given person or family had come, thus
distinguishing a man from others who
bore the same given name. Later
these names, for the most part, lost
their locality significance and became
the hereditary names Of families. Only
in minority Of cases do such names
indicate that the original bearers were
"of' certain locality in the sense
that they We're the rulers Of it.
As Il place name, Ramsey IS com
bination Of the Saxon "ey." which
meant isle" or island and either
ram" or else the word ''reoma." The
last named meant the edge" or dor.
der" and was the ancient form Of our
modern word rim"
(Copyrtght. 1920
